Movie Master

Chapter 171

Sophia standing on the stage seemed a little excited, but basically kept her composure, but the slightly trembling ending could still be felt. Winning this statuette was really hard-won for her. For the first time, she stood on stage as "Coppola" but received credit as "Sophia."

After the award for the best original screenplay was settled, people thought that the award for the best adapted screenplay would be awarded next, but unexpectedly, the award for the best soundtrack came next. It can be seen that due to the lack of suspense, the Best Original Screenplay Award was announced in the first half, but the top five seats for the Best Adapted Screenplay Award was a scuffle. No one could predict the result, so it was announced in the second half .

The suspense will continue to torment many people at the scene, including the audience in front of the TV.

Next, the awards ceremony once again entered the rhythm of "The Lord of the Rings Trilogy: The Return of the King". The three statuettes, Best Soundtrack, Best Original Song, and Best Mixing, entered the Hobbit's pocket without any suspense. Here, eight consecutive nominations have won eight trophies, and "The Return of the King" hits all the marks tonight, which makes people exclaim: Is "The Return of the King" going to break "Ben-Hur" and "Titanic" and win eleven small gold medals? Human history - "The Return of the King" won twelve nominations!

Now, "The Return of the King" is just four final steps away from winning 100 percent: Best Film Editing, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Director and Best Director. At this moment, the biggest suspense of the 76th Oscars is not whether "The Return of the King" can dominate tonight-this answer has been announced in front of the eight statuettes in advance, but who can break the "Return of the King" 100 100% winning rate? anyone there?

Before the answer was revealed, the Best Supporting Actor award was announced first—another department where "The Return of the King" failed to win a nomination. However, the suspense in this department is also very weak. Tim Robbins of "Mystic River" has been leading the way throughout the awards season. -Jones received the statuette trophy.

With "Finding Nemo" winning the Best Animated Feature Film Award under much anticipation, this also announced that the documentary department, animation department and other awards have all been awarded, and the technical department is only left with the most high-profile best film. The film editing award and the best photography award, the award ceremony has officially come to an end.

Five works, including "The Return of the King", "City of God", "The Rising Age", "Raging Seas" and "Cold Mountain" were among the top five for Best Film Editing. When the Oscar nominations were announced, all eyes were on "City of God," not only because the film was a shiny dark horse, but also because the film won the award at the American Editors Guild Awards. Had the last laugh.

In other words, the American Editors Guild chose "City of God", which is undoubtedly the greatest recognition for the editing of "City of God", which also makes Aaron Menke the one to beat "Return of the King" tonight. One of the biggest hits.

Interestingly, "The Return of the King" editor Jamie-Selkirk, like Aaron, is a little-known editor. Jamie is Peter Jackson's queen editor. Before that, he was unknown and became famous all over the world with the "Lord of the Rings" series. Jamie and Aaron, both first-time Oscar nominees, are juniors among juniors compared to "Cold Mountain" editor Walter-Murch.

This also makes the attribution of the best film editing award complicated and confusing.

"Don't worry, there's no need to worry." With a relaxed smile on Tucker's face, it can be seen that in the past three hours, Tucker's mood has been extremely relaxed, and he has truly devoted himself to this year-end carnival. "Just like the previous awards, Lance will eventually fail." Tucker even chuckled at the end of his words, showing his strong confidence.

So far tonight, "City of God" has not had any chance to play.

Jason, who was sitting next to him, sighed helplessly. He didn't want to spoil Tucker's good mood, but seeing Tucker's supercilious happiness, he still couldn't help reminding, "That's because Lance got it." Nominations have not been announced tonight."

Tucker was stunned suddenly, his pupils dilated, and he froze in place stiffly.

The "City of God", which was so beautiful during the nomination stage, completely disappeared after the award ceremony tonight. People thought it was a routine route—just like "The Postman", nomination and recognition are the greatest compliments. At the awards ceremony It was completely reduced to accompanying run, but when the nomination list for the Best Film Editing Award came out, people discovered that it was not that "City of God" had been forgotten, but that none of the six nominations won by "City of God" had been forgotten. The announcement, including the best foreign language film, in other words, the best film editing award is the first nomination for "City of God" tonight!

This small detail has been overlooked by many people, but at this moment, the turmoil comes, and it immediately seems to have a lot of meaning.

What exactly does this mean? Does this mean that "City of God" is really going to replace "Raging Seas" and launch an impact on "The Return of the King"?

This possibility also further increases the suspense of the Best Film Editing Award, and it is really impossible to judge who will win.

Thinking of this, Tucker only felt that his fingertips were getting cold, and even the slightest possibility made him restless. Tucker turned to look at Ryan for help. But Ryan didn't have time to talk to him. Ryan looked at the award presenters Julianne-Moore and Pierce-Brosnan on the stage expressionlessly, with a trace of It was cold, and there were two female companions between the two of them, and it was very inconvenient to talk, which made Tucker look back in frustration.

If Lance does win an award...

"The seventy-sixth Oscar, the winner of the Best Film Editing Award is..." Pierce said, and everyone in the audience was silent. Most of the guests were curious that "The Return of the King" could maintain 100% tonight. Is the winning rate? And Ryan, Tucker and Jason were curious as to whether "City of God" could make it to the podium -- and maybe George Clooney, which brought the tension to the extreme.

But Pierce showed a smile, and handed the envelope in his hand to Julian, "I still invited a lady to announce the final award." This little suspense made the atmosphere of the scene slightly relaxed. Double the speed tense up again, almost suffocating. Tucker just felt like he was about to spit it out!

"...Jamie Silk, 'The Return of the King'." Julian's voice came out through the speakers.

Ryan's extremely tense muscles relaxed, his heart was beating wildly, and his hot breath almost scalded his lungs. Tucker's voice came over in a low voice, but it was hard to suppress the rejoicing of the rest of his life, "Look! It's not him! I just said..." Then the applause of the audience broke out, covering Tucker's voice past.

"The Return of the King" won again, continuing the miracle of tonight's success. Nine nominations won nine trophies. Maybe tonight will really witness the birth of history.

The award ceremony at the end did not leave any breathing space at all, and then Charlize Theron stepped onto the stage. As the most popular actress tonight, she is about to present the Best Foreign Language Film Award, which is the only one who can An award on par with the best picture, the attention is unusual.

Among the top five nominations, Brazil's "City of God" and Canada's "Barbaric Invasion" are generally considered to be the favorites for the award, and "Barbaric Invasion" is undoubtedly the most popular work. The other three nominations are occupied by Sweden's "Evil", Holland's "Twins of Fire", and Czech's "Erela", but these three works can be said to be completely unknown before winning Oscar nominations. .

Not only did these three works fail to win at the three major European film festivals, they even failed to stand out at other second-tier film festivals. In the domestic award system of their country, they are not the biggest winners.

But it is precisely these three works that defeated the high-profile "Goodbye Lenin" and "Return", and were shortlisted for the best foreign language film nomination list. It can also be seen from this that the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film has a completely different award system. It is not so much Oscar as the Los Angeles Film Festival-corresponding to the three major European film festivals.

Therefore, the five works have an equal chance of winning the award. Even if the voice of "Barbaric Invasion" is slightly ahead throughout the awards season, it is only entrusted to the works selected by Canada, and North America can be regarded as a local battle. It is still impossible to know who will win in the end until it is revealed.

Ryan looked at the beautiful/glamorous Charlize on the stage. This South African diamond can be said to be a unique landscape in Hollywood. He can rely on his appearance for a living, but he has to work hard with his strength. Her sky is indeed a legend. But at this time Ryan didn't have the heart to appreciate Charlize's beauty, all his attention was focused on the red envelope in Charlize's hand.

The extremely tense atmosphere gripped his heart fiercely, leaving his brain completely blank, and Tucker's restless nagging voice came from his ears, "Don't worry, it won't, absolutely not, Just like just now, impossible, he can't get it, no, no..." Tucker's disturbed voice was like an endless cuckoo clock, which was disturbing, and what's worse, a small crowd around him The guests in the circle could hear it. Presumably, before the award ceremony is over, the face of Diorama Pictures will be lost.

However, Ryan didn't have the heart to stop Tucker at this time. He had no way to stop it, and he didn't want to stop it—listening to Tucker's rambling voice, it seemed that everything would come true, like magic. Ryan couldn't help but also clenched his fists, listening to Tucker's "no, no, no" lingering in circles, his muscles became tighter and stiffer...

Ryan's only thought now is: as long as it's not "City of God"! Any other work, as long as it is not "City of God"! Please do not!

No! No! No!
