Chapter 710
Peter? Jackson had produced the idea of shoots "The Lord of the Rings" series when he was a child, but the ups and downs were not realized until he was about forty years old. ◎,
Through the TV set in the restaurant Firefly Headquarters, Eric saw Peter? Jackson which is not Fatty at this time. He wore a black suit that seemed to be very unfit, with disheveled hair and a disturbed expression.
The best Original Script award was taken by "Braveheart" without much suspense. The screen of Peter? Jackson was immediately cut out, leaving only a lost silhouette.
In fact, even if "Braveheart" does not get the best Original Script, it is impossible to turn to "Sin Angel", the following "Saving Private Ryan", "Four Weddings and a Funeral", "Bullet Flying Broadway" and other movies script It is much better than "Sin Angel". This film script is just a coincidence in the theme of a biographical film.
The reason for being nominated for the best Original Script is simple in Eric's opinion, because its publisher is named Miramax.
Since the other party has successfully entered this circle, Eric believes that the coming will always come, but it does not mean to actively contact Peter? Jackson.
After the best Original Script, I experienced several irrelevant technical awards, and finally came to the end of the award ceremony. The next is the best Heroine, best actor, best Director and best Four awards for the film.
Everyone in the restaurant mentioned the spirit.
The best Heroine nominees include Jodie? Foster in "Nell's Heart", Winona? Reid in "Little Women", Susan? Salander in "The Client", "Tom and Miranda? Charlie Sen in "Vive" and Jessica? Lange in "Indulgence of Heart".
Jodie? Foster and Winona? Reid must be hopeless, Miranda? Charlie Sen is also a soy sauce party, because the publisher of "Tom and Vive" is still Miramax, Weinstein Brothers is definitely a short time Can't change the strategy of nominating and selling film.
Jessica? Lange and Susan? Sarandon are both Hollywood heavyweight acting actresses, and they already have at least three of the best Heroine nominations.
Eric remember Susan? Sarandon's post-season work is next year's "Death Walk." So, this year's best Heroine is definitely Jessica? Lange is no doubt.
Sure enough, after a brief introduction, the last best actor Daniel Day-Lewis read the name of Jessica Lange in a gentle manner. The audience applauded.
After the best Heroine was awarded, it was Danzel? Washington came to the stage to introduce "Saving Private Ryan" which was nominated for the best film. A few minutes later, last year's best Heroine winner Holly Hunt walked in a red dress. He took the stage and began to award the best actor award.
The best actor of this year is almost no suspense. Even the reaction of the audience can be heard. When Holly Hunt introduced the nominee to read the name Tom? Hanks, the applause of the audience was much louder.
At the same time, Mel? Gibson's slightly hard smile face appeared on the TV screen. His best actor was completely forced by Weinstein Brothers for public relations, the purpose is to disturb his best Director nomination.
Looking at the cheers of the audience, Tom? Hanks who hugs the members of the crew of "Saving Private Ryan" and walks onto the stage in turn, sitting on the Katzenberg opposite Eric: "Eric, are you sure this time?"
Eric knows that Katzenberg is asking for the next best Director nomination for Kathryn. Slightly nodded and smiled: "If you still can't get the best Director, then the Oscar jury is really fair."
For the best Director public relations of Kathryn, Eric used all the resources accumulated over the years. Steven Spielberg, Francis Coppola and other big coffees also personally helped Eric to pull some votes. As for the many Directors that have worked with Firefly, it goes without saying.
In addition to the undoubted qualification of "Saving Private Ryan", Weinstein Brothers promised to withdraw from the competition, and the chance of Kathryn winning was over 90%.
Of course, Eric is also clear. In a short period of time, his canvassing behavior with his own influence is best used only this time. If it is too frequent, the college will definitely rebound.
Eric ’s mind is stable. And already started to order people to prepare a car and wait to rush to the hotel where the celebration dinner is held, but in the hall of the sacred citizen, Kathryn sitting in the crew of "Save the Soldier" was very nervous, fingers clasped the armrests of the seat, Keep an eye on last year's best Director winner Robert Altman on stage. Although Eric took her to several public relations receptions, but did not tell her more about it, Kathryn did not know that she was actually close to this award indefinitely.
"Then, the 67th Oscar Best Director nominations are: Robert? Redford," Behind the Scenes "; Woody Allen," Bullet Flying Broadway "; Mel? Gibson," Braveheart "; Kri Shitov Kieslovsky, "Red"; Kathryn Bigelow, "Saving Private Ryan". "
Robert Altman slowly introduced the five best Director nominees of this year, leisurely opened the envelope in his hand, glanced at him, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and raised his voice, saying: "Well, historic The time has come ... "
The Robert Altman, who is seventy years old, speaks like the slow and steady long shots in his film. This sentence fell, and it obviously stopped for a moment. Countless eyes on the scene have turned to Kathryn, and the woman forcibly suppressed With the urge to cover his mouth with his hand, he waited patiently with a little trembling.
Someone ’s appetite slightly, Robert Altman said: "So, Oscar will belong to, Kathryn Bigelow," Saving Private Ryan ", let us congratulate this beautiful lady, she will be the first female best Director in the history of Oscar Winner. "
Wow wow ...
Warm applause sounded, noting that the figure of tall and slender in the light gray dress sitting in the center of the fifth row covered his mouth and stood up staggeringly. The applause in the field was more heated, and then some people took the initiative to stand. Get up and cheer.
At the age of 67, Oscar finally ushered in the first best female Director, which is indeed a historic moment.
Until Kathryn embraced the crew and walked onto the stage, the applause did not stop, and it rang for almost two minutes. It wasn't until Kathryn finally recovered from the excitement that he took several deep breaths and stood still in front of the microphone before applause gradually subsided.
"Thank you. Thank you, thank you all," Kathryn said something incoherently. After everyone in the field sat down, her eyes swept involuntarily around the field. Countless familiar or unfamiliar faces, but only a certain one was missing, she saw the mechanical arm with the camera slowly turned towards herself, she remembered that even if he did not come to the scene, at least he should be In front of the TV, so the eyes turned involuntarily to the black lens.
Sitting at the dining table of the Firefly Headquarters restaurant, Eric is also looking at the wall-mounted TV at this moment. He could clearly feel the search in Kathryn's eyes. This emotion seemed too obvious. Even the Katzenberg sitting opposite was grinning at him with a little smile.
On the screen, Kathryn ’s expression quickly calmed down and began to speak about the award-winning speech. Although the slightly jerky tone was completely covered by the excitement, Eric could still hear the recitation, smiled, and made her like this A woman on stage who does n’t even know how to stand up to do this kind of thing. It's really a bit embarrassing.
The next awards ceremony will not look good. "Braveheart" won the best film without suspense. Mel? Gibson was able to take the stage as a producer this time, but was caught between the other two winners. among. The mood of the guests on the scene seemed to be completely exhausted by the best Director award just now. The response was not so enthusiastic.
When all is over, watching the guests in the hall of Sacred Citizens in the last scene get up and walk out, Firefly seniors such as Eric and Katzenberg also get up at the same time, "Saving Private Ryan" won the best Director, best actor , The best photography, the best sound effects, the best editing five, everyone, at the celebration, Firefly seniors definitely need to show up.
Los Angeles is another corner. Thousands of guests slowly walked out of the auditorium and gradually got into the car waiting outside. They all dispersed. The older people may rush back directly to the hotel or home, but most people will rush to the next stop tonight , A variety of party scenes.
Because of the three-hour time difference between East and West, the Oscar awards ceremony has always started on the West Coast at 6 pm and ended at 9 pm in order to accommodate the East Coast audience. Although the East Coast is already early in the morning, the West Coast It's still the beginning of nightlife.
Firefly ’s celebration party was arranged in Susnet Tower Hotel, Eric and Katzenberg, but they were the first to arrive. There are not many people in the party hall.
However, in less than five minutes, Susnet Tower Hotel is full of excitement, and countless high-end cars have stopped outside Susnet Tower Hotel.
Eric knows this. It turns out that the celebration party of Fox is also arranged here.
Because of the interview after Oscar, Kathryn is coming later. However, the other members of the crew of "Saving Private Ryan" arrived first. On the Fox side, Elizabeth and Weinstein Brothers also arrived early. The hall is on different floors, Eric knows that Fox is much more lively, and Elizabeth has not come to say hello.
There are more and more people in the party hall. Tonight, the Victoria’s Secret Angel Quintet, which presented the best visual effects on the stage, has come one after another, and some other film crew members who have been nominated by sporadic Oscar have also appeared one after another. Eric also watched Most of the people in the "Léon: The Professional" crew are still thin and small Natalie? Portman, not yet fat Luc? Besson, an uncle character's Jean? Renault.
"Léon: The Professional" was released last year. The Box Office in United States is not very good. The critics are also very vocal because of Luc? Besson's excessive description of Lolita Natalie? Portman.
However, the film is quite popular in Europe and Asia. Eric knows that in the next few years, with the rise of the Internet, this film will become more and more popular.
Although "Léon: The Professional" is not liked by film critic and has not received any Oscar nominations, the little girl Natalie? Portman actually walked out of her first part at Hollywood. After the release of "Léon: The Professional", he received the Time Warner part. A small role in the 《Heat》 gathered by the stars, playing the daughter of Al? Pacino, but what can she do next, whether she can still get the role of Queen Pamela of the 《Star Wars》 prequel series like previous life, not the concern of Eric Things.
After another ten minutes, Kathryn finally appeared at the door.
"Congratulations, Kathryn," Eric looked at the little golden man in the woman's hand and stepped forward to hug her.
The mood of Kathryn has not calmed down yet. When I saw Eric, I was excited again and hugged him, saying: "Thank you, Eric."
"You're welcome," Eric nodded with a smile. There were too many people around. The two didn't have time to talk too much. Kathryn was surrounded by others.
Eric looked at the lively crowd in the venue and turned to Katzenberg who came together: "Roger? Allers Are they not going to come over?"
Roger? Allers is the Director of "The Lion King". Although "The Lion King" was not nominated for the best film like Golden Globe Award, it also won three best original songs and a best soundtrack, which is a small one. Put the limelight. At this time, Hand-Drawn Animation Department has belonged to Paramount, but most of the copyright of "The Lion King" is still on Firefly. Firefly will not be so stingy that even celebration party invitations will not be sent to the other party.
Katzenberg shook his head: "They will not come over. Paramount's celebration party is at the Four Seasons Hotel. They are definitely going there."
Eric smiled and asked about the situation of "Monsters, Inc." on the Disney animation side. The two chatted for a while, and Eric saw small girl turned out of the crowd and ran straight into his arms.
