Most of the behind the scenes staff of the new crew participated in the shooting of "dark city" before, and they are also very concerned about whether the film can get the Oscar nomination.
Later, Robert Downey, Margot Robbie and others who came out of the dressing room also went to Gail gado and Emma Watson who followed her to visit.
Murphy also came over and cast a caring look.
"Guess..." Emma Watson, however, deliberately sold the story. "How many Oscar nominations did dark city get?"
James Franco was very familiar with her and said directly, "come on, don't talk about it."
Emma Watson looked at Gail gado next to her and said, "best makeup, best photography, best editing, best soundtrack, best art direction, best visual effects, best sound editing, best original script, best sound effects, best actor, best actress, best director and best film!"
Then she asked Gail gado, "is that right?"
Gail gado nodded gently.
"One, two, three..."
Jonah hill, who is behind James Franco, is counting the number of nominations. "Thirteen Oscars in all."
"Thirteen." Robert Downey, Jr. repeated the number, with some regret in his voice. "It's not the most in history."
Murphy laughed. "There's a lot of thirteen Oscar nominations."
What's important is that "city of darkness" won the four most important nominations of best actor, best actress, best director and best film!
"Yes Seth Logan echoed, "thirteen is quite a lot!"
Everyone around laughed. Isn't thirteen Oscar nominations a lot?
From the perspective of Oscar nomination, "dark city" was defeated in the Golden Globes, which did not have much negative impact.
The weathervane awards that really influence the Oscars are ultimately the major trade union awards within the industry.
After getting the Oscar nomination, naturally, we have to prepare for the final award ceremony. How many people who participate in the Oscar competition do not want to win the small gold medal?
Emma Watson looked around at the voice of heated discussion, and her eyes were envious. If she could get an Oscar nomination, how could she be as troublesome as today and could not get rid of the influence of Hermione Granger.
Thinking of the recent attacks from the media and some people, Emma Watson is also helpless.
"Well, it's almost time." Murphy raised her voice slightly to remind the people around her, "get ready for the next work."
The people around gradually dispersed and returned to their posts to prepare for the next shooting.
Emma Watson followed Gail gado and accompanied Murphy back to the director's monitor. Seeing that Murphy would be OK, she came up and said with a smile, "Congratulations, Murphy."
"Thank you." Murphy turned to look at her. She was familiar with each other. She said casually, "you've been in a lot of trouble recently."
"Yes." Emma Watson shrugged. "Some people, always like to stand on the moral high ground to attack others."
Murphy said casually, "I'll be fine after a while. The criticism won't last long."
A few days ago, after the publication of the latest issue of vanity fair, Emma Watson, as the cover character, took some relatively large-scale photos for vanity fair, which attracted many people's criticism, and some people directly attacked her.
Some feminists, in particular, denounce Emma Watson for hypocrisy, pointing out that she regards herself as a feminist, but still takes sexy photos that "please men".
This kind of thing, there is nothing to say, just like the Catholic attack on Murphy, no matter what they say or do, they always have excuses and reasons to attack.
After a few words with Emma Watson, Murphy got back into the shooting.
Since the old 35mm camera and film were used in this shooting, and the photography was back to its original nature, Murphy seldom intervened in the photography team, and the photography was basically in the charge of Philip Raschel.
Although shooting does not need to use too many skills, it is also very basic skills, but Philip Raschel is not difficult to deal with.
The filming continued until close to 5 p.m. before Murphy announced the end of today's work.
"I just read the script."
As they walked toward the door of the set, Emma Watson said to Murphy, "the content is amazing! Those reporters in those years also had courage
"For American society, sexual abuse of children by bishops is a phenomenon that some people know about and many people don't know about. The reporters, standing opposite the huge authority, are not accusing one or two bishops or more than 70 bishops, but directly pointing to the cover and corruption of the holy see in the system."
What Murphy said are some objective facts. "This is a story that has not been taken seriously, but has to be told. It is different from revealing the Watergate incident or nicotine abuse by tobacco groups. The most difficult thing for them is not to explore the truth and repeatedly confirm the legal process, but to persuade their own heart."Then they walked out of the gate of the set and were immediately surrounded by reporters. The bodyguards quickly blocked Murphy in the middle.
The list of Oscar nominations has just been announced, and Emma Watson, who has been in a whirlpool of public opinion recently, is here again. The enthusiasm of the journalists can be imagined.
For the sake of publicity and marketing, Murphy is also going to be interviewed.
Under the loud reminder of a bodyguard, the order of the scene gradually improved, but the bodyguards still firmly surrounded Murphy, for fear that a reporter would rush in front of Murphy.
Reporters and paparazzi soon reached a tacit understanding and asked questions from several representatives.
In fact, these people are not stupid, if the scene has been noisy, Murphy will only turn around and walk away, now it can get some news.
After Murphy answered a few low-level questions about whether she was happy to win 13 Oscar nominations, a reporter asked about the current film.
"Director Stanton, why did your new film choose such a theme?"
"I feel that I have the obligation to let more people know about these things and people, and know what efforts those reporters made for justice and truth at the beginning!"
The real reason, of course, is that Murphy will not. What he says now are all words with awe inspiring righteousness. "How many people know what was reported in the column of focus at that time, but they can't say it, because after weighing the social pressure and the actual benefits brought by this big institution, it is far greater than the little meaning of being honest to themselves that he tells the truth, and sometimes it even has a negative impact "If I say whether I have betrayed God and faith" and "whether my sacrifice has dedicated myself to greater significance", we should praise the courage of the focus group, even though they have only done their part. "
He stopped for a moment, and then said, "there are all these stories that have to be told that have not been taken seriously. The courage to stand opposite the authority is too much for those who are trapped in it, but for those who are media workers, it should be their duty. Sometimes, we want to make the truth clearer, the power to tame is weaker, and the power to spur is heavier. "
A reporter suddenly turned her eyes on Emma Watson and asked, "what do you think of the recent criticism of Miss Watson?"
Of course, Murphy knew what they were asking. She looked at Emma Watson and said, "feminism is about giving women the right to choose. Feminism is not about attacking other women. It's about the basic principles of freedom, liberation and equality. I really don't understand what does chest have to do with it? It's very confusing. "
Later, the reporter turned the question to Emma Watson, who did not evade and replied directly, "this incident makes me realize that there are still many misunderstandings and misconceptions about feminism. I'm confused, and most people are confused, but I'm really dumbfounded. "
At this time, Murphy's bodyguards were surrounded by three people.
"Thank you, Murphy." Emma Watson said sincerely, "thank you for supporting me."
Murphy laughed. "It's right."
It's just saying things in favor of Emma Watson. It's not doing anything great.
Emma Watson also followed Murphy to wave manor, and other Stanton party members also drove here to join Murphy's dinner party.
It's a little celebration for "dark city" to win 13 Oscar nominations.
Since the 86th Academy Awards ceremony will not be held until early March, Murphy will be busy shooting "focus" in the following time, but the Oscars will not relax at all.
After the announcement of the nomination list, the situation suddenly became clear. Murphy could easily judge the biggest opponent, such as the most important four awards. The best director was facing the competition of Alfonso Caron. The best film "twelve years in slavery" was very strong because of its special theme. James Franco and Leonardo DiCaprio won the best actor In particular, Margaret Robbie's best actress nomination is for Kate Blanchett
It is no exaggeration to say that every opponent has strong strength and is not sure of winning at all.
However, one thing still shows the college's internal impression of "dark city". Among the directors' Union awards and producers' Union awards, dark city has all won the top ten awards of best actor, best actress, best director and best film. No matter from which aspect, it is the most popular one at this year's Academy Awards ceremony!
In mid February, Murphy finished shooting in the studio and led the crew to Boston to start shooting the rest of the location scenes.
