Chapter 619 This is a big unexpected surprise...

"I hope my children can have a teacher like this and classmates like this." Tom Hanks became more and more excited as he spoke. The movie "Philadelphia Story" allowed him to have a relationship with those minority-oriented and unfortunate people.

Spiritual connection.

“The streets of heaven are crowded with these angels who can finally rest in the warm embrace of their Creator, cooling their feverish bodies, clearing their skin, and opening their eyes to a simple but self-evident truth.

All men are created equal. This truth was written on a piece of paper by our forefathers in Philadelphia over two hundred years ago. God bless us all, God bless America!"

It seems that Tom Hanks really felt for the misfortunes while filming "Philadelphia Story". This acceptance speech was more like a speech by a politician announcing his candidacy.

However, Ronald was below and saw that Hanks seemed to be unable to hold back his tears. In addition, his voice was trembling and unsteady, and he was obviously very emotional.

"It seems sincere?" Ronald applauded with everyone. But he was the only one who remembered the names of the two people Hanks mentioned just now. This was not just a passage in a speech that revealed true feelings, but two people.

privacy was leaked to the public for no reason.

I hope not many people remember the names of the two unlucky teachers and classmates he revealed, otherwise it would be too bad to have such a sudden disaster.

Tom Hanks went backstage after receiving the award, and Ronald had no chance to communicate with him. Another major award, Best Actress and Best Actress, was about to be awarded.

Al Pacino, as the last Best Actor, became the award guest for this year's Best Actress. He changed from the elegant look in "Dawn of the Dead" when he accepted the award last time, with fluffy hair and

The scruffy beard is for the next movie "Two Bits"

)" Get ready...

In addition to Angela Bassett, a black actress who plays the biopic of America's beloved Tina Turner, there is also Deborah Winger, who has not made a sound in Hollywood for a long time.

Ten years later, she was nominated for Best Actress again.

“The Oscar goes to Holly Hunter…”

With the announcement of Al Pacino, the pain of those nominees who have been running around has finally ended. This award has been won by Holly Hunter from Cannes, to the major Film Critics Association Awards, to the Golden Globe Awards.

, the rest of the winners know that there is little hope, but they still have to accompany her to participate in the award ceremonies of various awards again and again...

After the Oscars, the awards season for the whole year is basically over, and I can finally no longer bear to watch Holly Hunter go on stage to accept the award and be applauded below.

Holly Hunter also had a premonition, and the smile she showed was "I deserve it" instead of "God bless". Today she wore a see-through sleeveless dress, and sat next to Anna Anna who played her daughter

·Paquin hugged him, then stood up and looked around before going on stage.

Ronald looked at the camera pointed at her and felt that it looked a bit unreliable. From a photography point of view, such a low camera position could easily make Holly Hunter, who was wearing sleeveless clothing, look

A bit bulky.

I don’t know whether it’s because the photographer’s skills are a bit inferior, or the director is dissatisfied with Holly Hunter. In short, such a shot will definitely be criticized by the person involved afterwards.

When Holly Hunter walked past where Spielberg was in front, the camera kept following him. Ronald looked at the screen next to the stage, and what appeared on it was the concentration camp where the villains from "Schindler's List" appeared.

The managing officer of Ammon's Ralph Fiennes.

"Well, the director's quality is too poor," Ronald concluded. At this time, if we were to shoot, we should also shoot the director of photography for Schindler's List, who won the Best Cinematography Award at this Oscar.

Janus Kaminsky.

He and Holly Hunter are in a relationship. What's the matter with your director taking crazy close-ups of Ralph Fiennes? I don't know who Holly Hunter's boyfriend is, but I only vaguely know him.

On the set of Schindler's List, and then I filmed Ralph Fiennes, who was obviously alone on the set...

Liam Neeson next to Ralph Fiennes, there is a woman next to him, who obviously does not look like Holly Hunter’s boyfriend... No one expected that Holly Hunter’s date was not a celebrity, but a celebrity

Kaminsky playing with the camera.

However, the three of them do look a bit similar. Could it be that the photographer made a mistake?

"When I was six years old, I pretended to play the piano on the window sill of my room. When my parents saw that I didn't seem to stop, they gave me a cardboard cutout of a piano key to see how long I could stay interested.

Bored...

I wasn't bored, so they gave me a real piano. I took piano lessons for the next ten years of my life.

So today I have to thank Alan Parrish, my first piano teacher, and my parents for allowing me to take piano lessons..."

"Her speech seems a little different..." Diane quietly stretched her head over and whispered to Ronald.

"Well, she is very sincere..." Ronald applauded with everyone. Holly Hunter is indeed different. This actress, who was deaf due to illness when she was young, needs the director to specially design a camera position for her.

Let her good ear pick up the lines.

Whether as a person or as a performer, Holly Hunter does not have much Hollywood sophistication, and she still maintains a relatively innocent heart. This may also be why she was able to portray the very unconventional heroine Ai in "The Piano Lesson"

All of Darcy's peers are convinced, and that's why he won awards at Cannes and Oscars.

"Coming..."

After a short break, it’s tonight’s most anticipated Best Director session. Can Spielberg win the statuette that should have been awarded to him long ago?

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "It's late at night, and we have five anxious nominees here, so I'll get straight to the point... um..."

The person who went up to present the award was last year's Best Director winner, Clint Eastwood. After he finished his speech, he froze on the stage. The only word on the teleprompter was the name of the award guest, Eastwood.

The names, where the names of the nominees should appear, remain motionless.

But fortunately, on the one hand, Eastwood has a cowboy-like straightforwardness, and on the other hand, he also has a great sense of humor. He even made a clever joke about a malfunctioning teleprompter.

"Now that I have the names of the award presenters, now I need the nominees... That's why I wish I had a teleprompter... Forget it, I can name five people without a teleprompter..."

"Hehehe..." The audience below began to laugh in good faith. This year's award ceremony felt like a grassroots team. The quality of the academy's awards show this year has declined.

"Okay, the nominees for the Best Director Award are..." The teleprompter finally started working.

“Jim Sheridan – In the Name of the Father;

Jane Campion – piano lessons;

James Ivory – The Afterglow of Yesterday;

Steven Spielberg – Schindler’s List;

and Robert Altman – Short Story Collection”

After talking about the nominees, Clint Eastwood reached out to open the envelope, and then continued to use his cowboy sense of humor to say, "I won't keep you waiting too long..."

Ronald was also a little nervous because of this old cowboy. Except for Robert Altman, who was not present at the scene, the other four nominated directors all had stiff expressions on their faces. Sheridan tilted his head to relieve the tension on his neck.

pressure to make yourself appear less nervous.

Jane Campion was sitting upright, but her head was tilted forward, like a student waiting for the teacher to grade her homework in class.

James Avery seemed to be the most relaxed, and his sitting posture was the least stressful among them. However, his slightly open mouth and expressionless facial muscles also betrayed his inner thoughts.

As for Spielberg, who had the highest voice and was generally expected to win the statuette before today, he felt as if his soul was out of body. He didn’t know what he was thinking or what to think... His breathing became rapid, and his chest heaved up and down.

This made it difficult for the cameraman who took a close-up of him to capture him, and the entire scene seemed to be constantly adjusting...

Time seemed to freeze at this moment. Sitting behind him, Ronald felt as if his adrenaline was also secreting at an accelerated pace, causing his perception of time to be distorted. A few seconds after Eastwood said those words, he opened the envelope.

The movement is like slow motion...

Although the budget has been spent, individuals have gone to various gatherings to canvass for votes, and resources from Ronald and other allies are also gathering, but after all, this is not an award selected by a small committee, but voted by thousands of judges. History

It’s not like there haven’t been some shocking moments in the past…

Finally, Eastwood opened the damn envelope. After he got the results, he threw the envelope away, held up the letter with one hand, and began to announce the results without stopping for a second.

"The Oscar goes to..."

At this time, everyone held their breath, and about half of the audience looked at where Spielberg was sitting. As for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of viewers across the United States and around the world, they stared at East in front of the TV.

Wood's mouth shape.

"Oh, this is a big unexpected surprise..."

"Oh..."

Immediately, the audience at the scene took a breath of cold air. Sure enough, there was an accident?

If any audience pays attention to the expressions of Jane Campion and James Ivory, they will find smiles on their lips, and their stiff bodies have become a little more relaxed.

Suddenly a woman in the audience, I don’t know if she was too nervous, or she was happy that Spielberg failed to win again, she shouted:

"Yes!"

The expression on Spielberg's face was also very exciting. He was originally frightened by Eastwood's words, and his brain was unable to process whether this was a leak in advance or a cold cowboy joke.

The stiff smile on Spielberg's face quickly disappeared, and his wife Kate Capshaw quickly held his hand next to him.

"Steven Spielberg, Schindler's List" was indeed a joke. Clint Eastwood did not "tease" the nominees any more, very quickly after making his own joke,

The winner's name was called.

"Oh... God, I was shocked..."

Ronald told Diane that he didn't want an old bastard like Eastwood to announce the result the next time he was nominated.

Kate Capshaw must have had the same idea as Ronald, and immediately hugged Spielberg and kissed him.

The blood that had just been withdrawn from Spielberg's limbs had not yet returned, and his hands and feet were still a little cold. Fortunately, his wife's kiss revived his energy, and he stood up, moved his hands and feet, and hugged his mother.

He quickly ran forward in a relaxed mood.

After hugging Eastwood, Spielberg caught the statuette with both hands. He just stood blankly facing the audience for several seconds, holding the coveted Best Director Award.

Then the audience fell silent, waiting for Spielberg to give his acceptance speech.

"oh……"

Spielberg kept holding the statuette with both hands, and then covered his mouth with one hand, determined to get his brain back...

Then he raised his hand and scratched his hair, showing the true character of a generation of otaku, "Oh... I have a friend who has won this trophy, but I swear, I have never held this with my own hands. As they said, this thing is very

Heavy……"

"Hahaha……"

After a burst of laughter, Spielberg returned to normal. He began to thank everyone, from the original author of the novel Schindler's List to the executives of Universal and the actors who played important roles in the movie.

fall.

"Finally, I want to thank the billion viewers who watched tonight's televised broadcast and the six million people who will never see this again (referring to the victims of the Holocaust)."

"Wow, wow, wow...", Ronald applauded with everyone, and the camera showed Spielberg's mother, who covered her face with her hands and cried with joy due to excessive excitement.

Soon, the last Best Picture award will be announced. Harrison Ford did not make any more "surprises" and bluntly announced that Schindler's List won the Best Picture.

Spielberg came out from backstage and came on stage to receive the award.

"Huh... today is the first sip of sweet water I have drunk after being thirsty for so long since I started working in the industry... Let me be brief and let Jerry and Bronco (the other two winners) say some words,

There are still 350,000 survivors of the Holocaust today. I hope that all educators watching the live broadcast will not let this become a footnote in the history books..."

Spielberg's excitement at finally getting the statuette was still not over. After talking for a while, he handed the microphone to the other two producers.

Whoopi Goldberg came out quickly and gave the final summary.

This year's broadcast, because ABC TV station strictly required broadcast time, meant that host Whoopi did not have many opportunities to tell jokes, and the speeches of the winners were also restricted and rigid. At the end of the awards night, the entire time was actually

It was very controllable and didn't take too long, and it ended earlier than in previous years.

Ronald and Diane stood up together and walked down the stairs laughing with Tom Cruise and his wife. After today's party, there will be many parties to be held as usual. For example, Variety Magazine has formed a customary party.

Many winners and non-winners have had the opportunity to be exposed in tomorrow's special issue of a variety show magazine, which has always attracted a lot of people.

However, Ronald and Tom Cruise are going to another party tonight. Because of the theme of the two movies Philadelphia Story and Schindler's List, tonight Ronald teamed up with Elton John,

And the Elizabeth Taylor Foundation held a special party, a charity fundraiser for the survivors of the Holocaust and those unfortunate people with the same story as Philadelphia.

By then Tom Hanks, David Geffen and others will also come.

Ronald slowly walked to the press interview area. As soon as he entered, he saw Spielberg standing up and down, holding two Oscar statuettes, smiling happily and allowing reporters to take pictures.

"It's not fair. There is something fishy about Oscar awards. Holly Hunter and I both won the Cannes award and the Golden Globe, but the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film was awarded to a white man."

As soon as Ronald got closer, he heard a man speaking in Chinese, as if he was complaining because no one around him could understand him, so he was not afraid of others hearing him.

"Mr. Chen, maybe after you win the Palme d'Or, you shouldn't participate in so many second-rate film festivals, just like Holly who only participated in the American Film Critics Association Awards..."

Ronald smiled and said something like a joke to the director of Farewell My Concubine who returned home in vain.

"Ah?...Ah, but Harvey told me..."

"It doesn't matter what Harvey says...See you later, Mr. Chen, I have to leave first..." Ronald left behind and walked towards the exit with Diane.

"Harvey...it's not important..." The director with thick eyebrows was left frowning.
