Chapter 1963 1963 The first award
Billy Christo's relaxed and freehand style was also sarcastic and ridiculous, and slowly kicked off the Oscars for their 70th birthday. The first to step onto the stage was Cooper Gooding, Little Golden Man, who won the Best Supporting Actor last year and became the award guest for Best Supporting Actress this year.
When he saw Cooper, Hugo turned his head and saw Charlize's shocked expression: obviously she did not expect that the first one would be awarded was the Best Supporting Actress Award. Charlize saw Hugo's playful smile in his eyes. His slightly opened mouth couldn't help but close it again, grinding his teeth hard, and glaring at Hugo, but instead made Hugo turn his head with a chuckle, leaving only the back of his head for Charlize.
Charlize wanted to give Hugo a palm, but raised his hand and found that his palm was completely wet. As Hugo said, even after going through this process once, when he faced it again, he still couldn't control his inner tension and anxiety. "This is a moment that I can never get used to."
Charlize took a deep breath to calm his beating heart, then took another deep breath, quietly hiding his nervousness, and looked at Little Cooper.
"In fact, I'm a little unhappy to stand here." Cooper's humor was also well received. He walked onto the stage and attracted everyone's attention with just one sentence. "First, my work was not shortlisted for this award. I strongly suspect that a screenwriter deliberately missed this part; second, a screenwriter refused to star in his own work, and rumors say that I was unhappy and very unhappy because I confessed to him.
The entire scene became a sea of laughter. Jack, who was sitting next to Hugo, hitting Hugo's arm hard, and was overjoyed. Hugo looked at the little Cooper on the stage with a helpless look. He originally thought that Billy did not make things difficult for him at the beginning, but he could finally escape today. After all, the "Titanic" was truly a big deal tonight, but he did not expect that little Cooper was hiding here.
"Actually, I have considered this possibility. Maybe, I mean, maybe, if the screenwriter was willing to write my role as a woman, maybe today I would be one of the five beautiful women sitting in the audience waiting for the announcement of the results." Cooper's teasing made Hugo laugh, "But thank God, the screenwriter did not write like this, avoiding this disaster. The final nomination was for five beautiful, sexual and outstanding ladies."
Cooper little looked at the nomination seat for the Best Supporting Actress Department. "We can see the elegant Ms. Stewart," Gloria Stewart is eighty-seven years old this year. "We can still feel the youthful Ms. Theron," and Charlize Theron is only twenty-two years old this year. "As for the other three ladies, they won't want me to release those cute and wonderful numbers," Julianne Moore couldn't help but laughed. Fortunately, he used his right hand to block his lips and avoided that bad demeanor. "So, let's take a look at the big screen and enjoy their wonderful performances in the movie."
Although there were only less than two minutes of the scene, Cooper's performance was absolutely wonderful, continuing Billy's outstanding performance at the opening and giving people a reason to look forward to tonight's Oscar.
In fact, the Best Supporting Actress Award was also the first head-on confrontation tonight. Among the five nominees, Joan Cusack, who was "the groom's mistaken bend", and Julian Moore, who was "the unrestrained", are generally considered to be runners. Objectively speaking, Julian's performance is worthy of recognition, and the praise of "the unrestrained night" is not inferior. However, because the competitors are too strong, Julian, who was nominated for the first time, naturally became a spectator.
The real competition begins among the remaining three candidates. Minnie Drifer of the "spirit catcher", Charlize of "Los Angeles Secret" and Gloria of the "Titanic". The three actors' works belonging to are completely fierce. Needless to say, they can be regarded as one of the most praised works in the professional field in the past year. The additional factors that the works can give actors awards are absolutely outstanding, which also makes the Best Supporting Actress department the opening game of the best film contender tonight!
Gloria and Minnie are both nominated for the first time in their acting career, and Charlize is only the second time. In addition, Julian, who is also nominated for the first time and Joan, who is nominated for the second time, it can be seen that the best supporting actress has always been a hotbed for commending new actresses, which is in contrast to the best supporting actors in the elderly department. This is also the pattern of different requirements for actors in Hollywood. The overall situation of Hollywood's different requirements for actors reflects that men are always more popular as they get older, and women are always getting younger.
Gloria worked hard and made great contributions. She began to be active on the big screen since the 1930s. Later, she chose to retire. It was not until the late 1980s that she appeared on the big screen again as an elderly actor. This time she also contributed a very outstanding actor to the "Titanic". Many people believe that this actress who has inherited from the Golden Age of Hollywood is definitely worthy of the award of a Little Golden Man. In addition, the unstoppable momentum of "Titanic", this is also Gloria's biggest bargaining chip.
Minnie and Charlize are actually quite similar. Both of them appeared on the big screen for the first time in 1994 and around 1995. Minnie starred in works such as "The Four Brothers of Love" and "007's Golden Eye". Charlize relies on "before the Sunrise" and the "Devil's Spokesperson" are highly recognized. Even her age is very close to Minnie's 27 years old this year, only five years older than Charlize.
In addition, the works proposed by the two people at the award ceremony are very similar. The characters played by both of them are the only red flowers among the green leaves, which also plays an important role in promoting the entire story. What is more interesting is that the works of the two people are also the biggest winners in the Best Original Script Department, and the competition has already begun in advance.
Objectively speaking, Minnie's performance in "The Mind Catcher" did not have much amazing features, but was ranked more by relying on the overall influence of the work. Gloria and Charlize both showed outstanding performances in their works, and they deserved the award; but the Best Supporting Actress Department is accustomed to commending young actresses, which gives Minnie and Charlize a little advantage, and Julian also has the absolute strength to become a "dark horse".
All of this made the best supporting actress full of suspense, especially before the award ceremony, the confrontation between the traditional and the reformist schools made several works stand completely on the opposite side. In the face of the important task of creating history, no one is willing to give in.
The short video on the big screen was soon played, and the air at the scene couldn't help but tense up, and the slightest sparks could be seen.
Charlize sat in his seat, his hands couldn't help but gently put them away, and the beating of his heart slowed down. She recalled in her mind what had happened in recent times. She knew that she still had a long way to go on the road of acting. Not to mention anything else, the role of Erin Ainos just had to do all her efforts. So, even if it was not her tonight, she should not feel regret or sad, because her future had just begun.
Thinking of this, Charlize couldn't help but look at the back of his head slanted in front of him. At this time, Hugo turned his head slightly and said something to Leonardo. Leonardo turned his head and looked at Charlize, then raised a thumbs up, as if he was cheering her up. This made Charlize's extremely nervous face smile gently.
"Huh, it's time to reveal the answer!" Little Cooper picked up the envelope in his hand and gently patted his right hand. His look was dull, but the tense atmosphere at the scene became even more tense.
Charlize felt a turbulence around her. She couldn't help but turn her head to look at it, but found that Minni's smile was completely stiff at this time, like a robot. The muscles that were tense and could be broken at any time could be clearly felt through the evening dress. Charlize knew that she was not the only nervous person, and even Julian and Gloria who were sitting next to her looked a little weird at this time, which made Charlize couldn't help but wonder: How bad is her expression?
Looking back at the previous award ceremony night, Charlize also felt a sense of humor when he saw Hugo's laughter.
"The winner of the 70th Academy Award-winning actress is..." Cooper said loudly, showing a smug smile, and then gently opened the envelope in his hand. Everyone in the audience held their breath, especially "Los Angeles Secret", "Spirit Catcher", and "Titanic" crew. The first two were the best. The suffocating tightness made Cooper unable to help swallowing and his fingers trembled slightly.
Cooper looked down and tried to keep his smile. Then he looked at Hugo with a glance and just a light glance. Hugo was full of doubts and had no time to think, but Cooper said, "Charlize Theron, 'Los Angeles Secret'."
"Yeah!" Hugo held his fist hard, as if the winner was himself, and then turned around and hugged Leonardo hard. The two of them hit each other's backs. The banging sound made both of them almost vomit blood, but the smile on their faces completely bloomed.
Hugo turned his head and saw Charlize sitting in place completely in a daze. Robin Williams beside her gave her a big hug and helped her stand up. But Charlize was still shocked and looked at the stage in disbelief, walking forward unconsciously with the light steps.
Chapter completed!
