Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!

Wait patiently until the applause stops, Billy Crystal said: "So, Hollywood is a place full of dreams, whether it is less than 20 years old, or more than 80 years old, as long as you are really talented, If you are willing to work hard, you will be sure. "

A burst of applause sounded again, and many people turned their attention to Eric. There is no doubt that the phrase "not yet twenty years old" in the mouth of Billy Crystal refers to Eric, and the camera lens also conforms to public opinion. To the Eric side.

Eric clapped quietly, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, responding.

After finishing the Billy Crystal speech, please invite another group of award-winning guests and leave the stage immediately.

After a few extraneous awards again, another Hollywood legendary actress Jane Fonda took the stage, and Eric could n’t help but sit up straight, because the next two awards are the most important for him in this Oscar Two important awards, although Eric has made four movies in Director this year, Firefly has also declared the best Director for the two movies 《Pretty Woman》 and 《Running Out of Time》, but neither has been nominated.

Therefore, the two best script awards won by Eric through "The Others" and 《Scent of a Woman》 have become the two most important nominations for this Oscar.

Jane Fonda and Morgan Freeman were born at the same age. However, they look like they are in their forties. The black slim dress makes the actress faintly reveal the charm of her youth.

"This year is undoubtedly a year of great harvest for Hollywood. Not only did the local total Box Office break through 5billion USD for the first time, but also more excellent movies emerged than in previous years. No matter what a good movie, It is inseparable from a good script, script is the basis of a movie. So. Let ’s take a look at the film that won the Oscar best adaptation script nomination. "Jane Fonda said, slightly sideways. He gestured towards the big screen before proceeding to read: "The best adaptation script nominations are:" Driving Miss Daisy ". Alfred Ahari;" enemy, a love story ", Roger.Simon;" dream Come true, Phil Alden. Robin Sen, "My Left Foot", Jim. Sheridan, 《Scent of a Woman》, Eric Williams. "

Five shots of nominated candidates appear in sequence on the big screen. Eric looked at the stage without blinking his eyes. Although he wanted to show a casual appearance again and again, under this situation, in this tense atmosphere, the hand on the knee of Eric still couldn't help but hold Became a fist. Although the two awards of the best adaptation script and the best Original Script are still not very high compared with the last four major awards, compared with the technical award for the best soundtrack that is not important before, these two awards The gold content is much higher.

After Jane Fonda introduced the nominees, they did not let the audience wait for too long, and quickly opened the envelope in their hands. After a glance, he moved closer to the microphone and said, "The best script adaptation of Oscar is:" Driving Miss Daisy "."

In the bang of applause, Eric jumped in the bottom of his heart, and there was a strong sense of discomfort in his heart. Among the best script nominations, 《Scent of a Woman》 is the one that is most likely to receive the award. After all, everyone knows that the theme of horror movies is not very pleasing to Oscar. Although I thought about applying for the best Original Script of "Sleepless in Seattle" or 《Pretty Woman》, after all, after all , Love movies are more pleasing than horror movies, but after considering it again and again. Eric still decided to declare the best Original Script for "The Others" and gave up "Sleepless in Seattle" and 《Pretty Woman》.

After all. The likelihood of getting the best Original Script in a love movie is low, and "The Others" ​​is a horror movie. But this script is undoubtedly more exciting than traditional horror movies, and the possibility of winning the award is higher than the other two love movies. Although Oscar will not prohibit Eric from reporting the other two love movies together, and won The possibility of nomination is not small, but in that case will only dilute the number of votes, so that the possibility of winning several script becomes very low.

But Eric has now discovered that he has neglected another fact, but he has ignored it.

Whether it is the best Original Script or the best adapted script, the members who voted are all members of Writers Guild of America. Therefore, after he was nominated for the best script by virtue of 《Scent of a Woman》 and "The Others" at the same time, screenwriter with voting rights will consider him With two nominations, it was too untimely for all his nominations to fail, and at least one of the two movies will be voted for. But Eric can also be sure that most screenwriter will not vote for two scripts at the same time, but will only choose one of the two scripts of 《Scent of a Woman》 and "The Others".

This also means that although the best Original Script and the best adaptation script are two different awards, the votes won by these two awards are still shared.

Then there is no doubt that if you let Writers Guild of America members choose one of the two, the 《Scent of a Woman》 with higher artistic achievements will definitely receive more votes than "The Others", then, since even 《Scent of a Woman》 failed to win the award, then receive The coming "The Others" is even more hopeless.

With a sigh in the bottom of my heart, Eric shook his head slightly, quickly converged his expression, and turned his attention to the stage.

After the best adaptation of script, Jane Fonda did not go down the stage, but continued to introduce the nomination list of the best Original Script: "The Oscar best Original Script nominations are:" Death Poetry Society ", Tom. Shure Mann; "Sin and Wrong", Woody.Alan; "Sex, Lies and Videotapes", Steven. Soderbergh; "The Others", Eric Williams; 《When Harry Met Sally》, Nora Ephron. "

Eric ’s face appeared again on the screen in the center of the stage. Even though many people on the scene could see him on the stage as soon as they raised their heads, many people turned their attention to where Eric was sitting.

There is no doubt that these people must have realized the current situation of Eric. As for whether anyone is gloating, it is unknown.

Eric turned a blind eye to other insignificant eyes, and just nodded to the people who were concerned about them in the surrounding crew and nodded, making a reassuring look. (To be continued)
