Chapter 534: Female Power in the Oscars

“Los Angeles, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences presents the 65th Academy Awards today. We’re bringing you live from the Dorothy Chandler Center, made by Revlon, the most unforgettable dress worn by women; Lee jeans, the most

Skin-fitting jeans; Chevrolet, the heartbeat of America; and Coca-Cola, the forever old taste brought to you.”

At the end of March, the annual Academy Awards party came again. Ronald and Diane came to the Dorothy Chandler Center together. Facing the cameras of the ABC TV station that captured the stars, Ronald and Diane both

They waved their hands gracefully. Compared to other celebrities, neither of them had any nominations this year, so they looked relaxed and just came to support them.

Today, Diane's backless dress, coupled with diamond earrings and pearl necklace, has a bit of the charm of a Colombian goddess in the title sequence, attracting more camera time than Ronald. She was very proud and told Ronald about her fame.

Finally surpassed him.

"Of course, you are the winner of the last Best Supporting Actress... They will suddenly realize it when they see Columbia's new title..." Ronald and Diane joked.

"What Colombia? Is it a new movie?"

Suddenly a familiar woman's voice came. Ronald turned around and saw that it was Jane Fonda. "Jane..." Ronald was very happy. The female star who supported him back then was dressed in white today.

The sleeveless dress and the white gloves that were longer than the elbows made the whole person radiant. Jane Fonda took the initiative to step forward and hugged Ronald, somewhat returning to her former radiant state.

"No, I asked Diane to make a small marketing for Columbia, similar to a trailer. You, on the other hand, seem to be ready to star in a big A-level production at any time. Did I miss any big projects?"

"Hahaha, you really make me happy." Jane Fonda laughed boldly. She didn't have any big projects. After marrying the media tycoon Ted Turner, she stopped acting. But in order to satisfy her husband's needs, she stopped acting.

I also had breast plastic surgery and moved to Florida, away from Hollywood.

Maybe it's the climate in Florida, or the lack of suffocating pressure in Hollywood, but her overall complexion is much better than before.

"Ted, this is Ronald." Jane Fonda's laughing scene was captured by the camera, and she turned back to introduce her husband, Ted Turner, to Ronald.

"Mr. Turner, nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you."

Although he said he was happy, Ted Turner's face looked very bad, and his smile was bitter. When shaking hands, Ronald also felt that his hands were a little cold, and Ted Turner immediately turned his head again.

, restored the naturally bitter face.

It was hard for Ronald to show off his expression. Ted Turner was a bit nervous. It would be terrible if he was caught on camera by a reporter and then showed off his expression.

Celebrities are coming one after another. Ronald stayed at the door for some time. He doesn't take the initiative to say hello now, but there are many people who come to chat with him.

Rao Julio, who plays General Vega in "Street Fighter", came here to thank Ronald. During his physical examination after the filming, he found some problems, and he underwent surgery in time and recovered. His whole body

I still have some weakness after illness, and my face is a little thin.

Then came Tom Hanks. He was still in the body management stage after losing weight for his role in "Philadelphia Story". He wore a pair of round sunglasses and a short round haircut. Ronald looked like O

Survivors of Swithin.

The two of them were on the left and the other, causing reporters and other celebrities to often look over. This image was so eye-catching, as if two drug abusers were buying something from Ronald, a drug dealer.

Ronald felt something was wrong. Today, he seemed to be the headline material for tomorrow's gossip tabloids. He quickly went in with them.

At this time, two more stars arrived outside the door, both of whom were nominated for Best Actor. One was Al Pacino from "Scent of a Woman" and the other was Robert Little from "Chaplin".

Downey suddenly attracted the attention of the media.

Especially the latter. Robert Downey Jr. has always been a favorite actor among critics. This time he plays Chaplin, the Hollywood superstar of the time. This time, many film critics are betting that he will win the Best Actor Award.

However, compared to the actors around Ronald who lost weight for the sake of art, this one is a real drug abuser. He is completely distracted, his eyes are dull, and he often loses focus when communicating with others, which is exactly what he is praised for.

The kind of detached performance in "Chaplin".



"Wow wow wow wow", after a long wait, the awards show finally started with the applause of the guests. Ronald saw another Best Supporting Actor winner on stage, doing one-handed gestures on the stage.

Jack Palance doing push-ups.

He also pulled a very thick cable in a funny way, and behind him was a huge model of the Oscar statuette lying down. Sitting on the model was Billy Crystal, who was the host for the fourth year with Xi Jinping.

Ronald, like everyone else, couldn't stop laughing. He quickly took out a small book and took a note. Jack Palance wanted to appear in more movies because he wanted to appear in more movies. Such a good actor must find a way to give him

Role play.

Billy Crystal teased his old partner Jack Palance and then started hosting:

"When I came today, I was very nervous. Everyone was guessing how I would come out. Because many people wanted me to appear in the plot of their movie because they thought it would bring good luck (last time he appeared in silence

Lamb's appearance appeared, and the film won five awards).

A Few Good Men wanted me to dress up as Jack (Nicholson) and scream, 'You can't face the truth.' Unforgiven wanted me to dress up as Clint, 'I'm coming out soon, who of you dare to do anything to me?

Shoot and I'll kill him'.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! And the crying game, they want me to, well, just come out..."

Ronald was stunned for a moment when he heard this cold joke, and everyone around him laughed softly. This British work by Miramax has a cross-gender plot. At the critical moment when men and women are attracted to each other, a person suddenly appears.

I'm transgender. This has become a thing in Hollywood, but it's extremely embarrassing to say it at this time.

"Today is the British Invasion, and apart from The Crying Game's six nominations, I've got nine nominations, oh my god, nine..."

Ronald looked around. The Hollywood guests hated these British actors competing for awards. They all looked weird. It was obvious that Billy Crystal was a master who understood the psychology of the guests. It felt like they shared the same hatred.

Today's Oscars, like last year's "Year of the Woman" in politics, have the theme of female power in Hollywood.

The first award was for Best Supporting Actress. Jack Palance came out again, he was also very humorous, "Billy told me not to waste too much time, especially not to do one-arm push-ups..."

"The Oscar for Best Supporting Actress belongs to Marisa Tomei, my cousin Vinnie."

"Thank you. I'm so excited. In the year of female power in Hollywood, it's especially meaningful for me to receive this award. I also want to thank my castmate, Joe Pesci, for inspiring my performance."

Marisa Tomei is twenty-eight years old this year. She was very cute in a pink dress. Her acceptance speech was also very appropriate, a rare old-fashioned way of thanking her cast members and family.

Ronald stood up and gave up his seat to Diane. She was going backstage to prepare and give the Best Supporting Actor award to the person behind her. When she turned around, she saw Marisa Tomei, who had just won the award, at the edge of the stage, giving the award to the audience.

of a man blowing a kiss.

He looked back and saw that it was Robert Downey Jr., the leading actor in "The Legend of Chaplin." Tomei played Mabel Normand in "The Legend of Chaplin," and was Chaplin's partner and director during the silent film period. It turned out that

The two fell in love on the show and even dated in real life. However, Robert Downey Jr. looked so dull that the audience who didn't know the inside story thought he was still immersed in the role of Chaplin.

Next up on stage were Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins, who presented the award for Best Editing.

First, it reviewed the history of female-dominated editing in the early days of Hollywood, and then played the famous blockbusters edited by all female editors since the 1970s to echo this year's theme of female power.

Ronald was still reminiscing about Martha Lucas's editing of Star Wars, Taxi Driver, and American Graffiti at the beginning. Almost one-third of this tribute was written by her. The two award presenters were

Best Editing was announced, and the winner was "Unforgiven" directed and starred by Clint Eastwood, who also received nine nominations. However, this time it was not a woman who won the award. The winner was Joel Fox, a man.

Editor.

"Hua Hua Hua..."

Since it is the year of female power, Diane also needs to be close to the theme when she goes on stage to award awards, but it is difficult to connect with the Best Supporting Actor. For this reason, Diane even hired a comedy screenwriter to write her award speech.

.Because Diane took it very seriously and changed it many times without even telling Ronald.

"In this year of female power, I am here to present an award that has traditionally been difficult for women to perform in any way, Best Supporting Actor..." The audience below still laughed, and Ronald raised his hand to signal to Diane.

Don't be nervous, she.

"But I can safely say that this year's award has finally made a big breakthrough..."

"Hey hey hey..." The audience below snickered again. Two Miramax-led films produced by British Investment and British Filmmakers, The Crying Game and This Love Can Ask the World, collected fifteen nominations, and the local

People in Hollywood don't like it.

Among the nominations announced by Diane this time, there is a very speechless nomination. Jay Davison, who played the hostage Jodi "girlfriend" Dill who was taken hostage by the IRA in The Crying Game.

Although this role is played as a "girlfriend", she is actually a man and a transgender minority.

In addition, the actor Jay Davidson is also very feminine, and with his short hair and appearance, the average audience would not recognize him as a man. In short, this nomination is also very consistent with Hollywood people's imagination of the British film and theater circles, and is a minority orientation.

A messy circle in which people dominate.

The competition this time is quite fierce. Among them is Al Pacino, who was nominated for Best Supporting Actor as a salesman in Glengarry Glen Ross. He beat out many powerful actors and won the nomination.

This year he was nominated for Best Actor and Supporting Actor, and he still has a beard from the filming of "Dawn of the Nightmare".

There is also Jack Nicholson, who starred in "A Few Good Men" produced by Ronaldo. His performance was also very brilliant, and he overshadowed the protagonist Tom Cruise by a lot.

"The Oscar goes to...Gene Hackman, unforgivable..."

"Wow, wow, wow..." The guests applauded loudly this time. It seemed that everyone was relieved that the Best Supporting Actor was not awarded to a female character because of the movie "Year of the Woman".

Even Al Pacino and Jack Nicholson, who were nominated for Best Supporting Actor but did not win in the end, seemed relieved and applauded and congratulated Gene Hackman, who has been a gold medal supporting actor for many years. If it is really because

This year's women's theme was awarded to Jay Davidson. Every time I review this year's awards from now on, both of them will be used as ridiculous backgrounds to talk about.

However, the two crew members who sat together in the Crying Game were not in a normal mood. I don’t know if it was because of the public relations actions Harvey Weinstein made in advance, or because of the female characters in the movie.

The theme of New Year gave them too much fantasy, and in short, everyone looked unhappy.

This chapter is not over yet, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Jay Davidson, who did not win the award, even blurted out Fuxk, but fortunately the camera did not capture this. With a gloomy face, he did not know what he was thinking.

What.

"I like Unforgiven..." host Billy Crystal realized that the atmosphere was too tense and he had to say something.

"Especially when Clint Eastwood pulled a gun on Gene Hackman who was lying on the floor and Gene Hackman said, I built this house.

I suddenly felt like Clint, I also wanted to hold a gun and shoot the contractor who renovated my house last year..."

Everyone burst into laughter again. The decoration contractors in California had to take photos and it was very difficult to get them. After getting them, the prices were very expensive and they often made incorrect things. It can be said that everyone hates decoration companies.

"The awards presented below are for Best Makeup. The awards are presented to former Oscar winner, Joe Pesci, and his opponent in My Cousin, Melissa Tomei, who just won the award..."

"The Academy Award for Best Makeup goes to Greg Cannon, Michelle Burke, and Matthew W. Mongel, 400."

This award was again awarded to "The End of the World" directed by Francis Coppola. It has a dramatic feel, heavy makeup, and very distinctive stylization. It is another Hollywood-led film.

Ronald feels that Harvey Weinstein has used so many resources on public relations, but this year it has caused local tastes to be disgusted with the British Invasion, which may have been self-defeating.

"Dear..." Diane just returned to the audience after awarding the award.

"Your performance is great, and your jokes are so good..." Ronald praised. It is estimated that Diane's performance this time will be regarded by Hollywood locals as an act to vent their anger.
