"The rise of generation Y actors" is people's biggest feeling about the nomination list of Golden Globe Awards. Among the 20 nominations of the leading role department, young actors jointly occupy 10 nomination seats, which is half of the country in the real sense; Even the supporting role department is no exception. Among the ten nominations, Andrew Garfield of "social network" and Mila Kunis of "black swan" are also prominent.
In other words, in the actor department, a total of 12 Generation Y actors received nominations, which is unique in previous years, and truly presents a prosperous era of renewal!
In this list of nominees, Natalie, who is most likely to win the first gold medal of generation Y, is not the most popular, but two new actors in their early twenties, Jennifer Lawrence and Langley hall.
For Hollywood, which is fond of the new and tired of the old, they always open their arms to welcome talents. Almost every year, countless talented new stars emerge. Even so, it is rare to see two outstanding actors in their early twenties in a row.
In "winter's bone", Jennifer showed a spiritually compelling performance. Her delicate and heavy performance made everyone see clearly. Her calm and spicy performance, which was not in line with her age, gained a lot of praise. She almost killed all the way to the year-end award season without any effort.
This is a typical Hollywood dream for a small cost independent work without the support of a strong distribution company, witnessing the glory and happiness of overnight fame.
If the birth of Jennifer is the inevitable law of Hollywood, then the strong rise of Langley is inconceivable.
It's always easier for new actresses to get ahead in Hollywood. Under the control of male supremacy, Hollywood is always looking forward to more new faces. Up to now, the frequency of vase actresses is still high. Under the control of "materialization", beautiful young faces can always easily get the chance to become a beautiful scenery in the film.
It's the same at the performance level. For performances of the same level, it's easier for actresses to get nominations or even awards, while it's much harder for actors“ This is true of Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio in Titanic, Reese Witherspoon and Joaquin Phoenix in singing, Michelle Williams and Ryan Gosling in blue Valentine's day.
On top of the Oscars, the best supporting actor department is known as the home for the aged. Veteran actors who have been rolling for many years, who are diligent and conscientious, are always more likely to win the prize, because the Academy judges think that young people still have a lot of time to polish slowly; The best supporting actress department is considered to be the cradle of new stars. Young, energetic and young new actors are more likely to be awarded because the college judges want to see more young people emerge and keep fresh.
Of course, there are costs.
The golden age of actresses is usually before the age of 35. In 2015, Hollywood actresses jointly appealed to the MDB, and their real age was announced on the website. Producers are more willing to use young actresses. It is more difficult for actresses after the age of 35 to find a job, so they asked IMDB to cancel the disclosure of age.
The actor's golden age is generally after 35 years old. In his young age, most of them can only play the role of idol vase. Otherwise, they are full of polishing in the supporting role, waiting for their own opportunities. In the long history of Oscars, only one of the best actor winners is under 30 years old, Adrian Brody, the "pianist" - he won the award at the age of 29 and 343 days.
It is in this context that blue rite appeared.
On the 20th of last month, Langley just celebrated his 21st birthday and reached the legal drinking age in the United States. For Hollywood, there is no difference with high school students. Except for youth movies such as "back to the future", "youth of singing and dancing" and "American School", there are almost no movie projects that define the male protagonist at this age.
Because such young people, just out of adolescence, are not solid enough in their acting skills, are not rich in their role levels, and are not diversified in their performance types, so they are in an awkward position.
What's more, artistic creation at this age is very difficult. Children have family crisis and childhood perspective, high school students and college students have growing pains and social fear, middle-aged people have middle-class crisis... But young people who have just left university just adapt to the confusion of society, It is difficult to dig out more content in artistic creation.
Moreover, the main consumer group of the film market is not at this stage, that is to say, even if the film of this age is produced, the audience is too narrow, and it is difficult to achieve good results in the end. This also makes the production companies are not interested.
Therefore, in Hollywood, the position of an actor between the ages of 20 and 25 is the most uncomfortable. Many actors or bite their teeth through, after 26 years old, the situation will be better; Or it will be submerged in countless new faces and gradually disappear in the public eye.
Zac Efron is the most typical representative. At the age of 17, he became famous for his "youth of singing and dancing". After the completion of the trilogy, he was just 19 years old, and then he fell into a four-year struggle period. On the one hand, he could not go back to play high school students, on the other hand, the older roles were not competitive, even shooting chick love movies, He can't compete with the leading actors in their 30s.
This situation did not improve until he was 25 years old, but after that, his acting career gradually turned into a comedian who sold his body. His development path became narrower and narrower, and gradually became a type of film. It's like Van diesel or Adam Sandler.
At the beginning, the same was true of lenley's audition for "the Pacific War". Eugene slakey was a 19-year-old boy, but Steven Spielberg preferred Joseph mezlo, 26, to lenley, 20. If it wasn't for the accident that night that changed Steven's mind, the situation would be very different now.
Now, Lan Li has broken the shackles of age and written a miracle.
First, she won the Shidi trophy in the Emmy Awards, and then she gave an amazing performance in the "buried alive". She occupied an unshakable position in the award season and won her first Golden Globe nomination in one go! And the second golden ball nomination!
In addition to the nomination of best actor in the drama category, "Pacific War" once again made Langley win a nomination in the competition for best actor in the mini drama TV movie!
Like Johnny Depp, he received two nominations as an actor, and he was on the list of nominees.
Just when everyone thought that the "Pacific War" was the peak for the new actors, Langley handed over the work of "buried alive", arrived in Toronto with an incredible attitude, and started the fairy tale journey of the rise of the bottom. As the leading actor, lanli's young and tender shoulders show a rare atmosphere and calm.
For a young man who has just reached the age of 21, it's no exaggeration to use any gorgeous words to describe him. Hollywood has not seen such an outstanding young man for several years, and the last young actor who has attracted so much praise is undoubtedly Heath Ledger.
But even heath, he also ushered in the "Brokeback Mountain" after the age of 25. Now, Langley is four years younger than heath!
So when the nomination list for the Golden Globes came out, the whole Hollywood fell into a frenzy of praise, celebrating that the golden age of generation Y actors has officially arrived, that the replacement of actors has come to the surface, that the progress of the film industry has made another breakthrough, and that the excellent performance of the new generation of actors has also been celebrated, Celebrating that they have witnessed the rise of a generation of talents!
"Hollywood Reporter", as a big player in the industry, has produced a special issue of "the rise of generation Y".
Among them, Natalie Portman is the most promising actress in the future; And the second one, to everyone's surprise, "Hollywood Reporter" gave up James Franco, who has a strong momentum this year, and commander Ryan Gao, who has made many excellent works in the past four years, and chose Langley hall.
"With brilliant talent, firm pace, outstanding strength and elegant temperament, lanli has awakened people's memory of those superstars in the golden age."
A brief comment can clearly feel the "Hollywood Reporter"'s praise for the work. The recognition of this authoritative magazine in the industry can be regarded as the greatest affirmation of the work of "burying alive".
But the "Hollywood Reporter" is not alone. Praise from other media is endless. Countless flowers and applause surround lanli. People are discussing one after another. Who can win the nomination at this year's Oscar ceremony? Can Lan Li go to a higher level and write miracles?
Ryan won his first Oscar nomination four years ago with half a Nelson, when he was only 26 years old; Now, Jesse, James and Langley all hope to get out of the tight encirclement and get their first Oscar nomination. The fierce competition of the new generation is extremely cruel, but it is also exciting.
In particular, the duel between "127 Hours" and "buried alive", as well as the confrontation between James and Langley, has gradually come to the surface with the advance of the award season. One is the focus of the topic of favorable weather, location and people, and the other is the absolute dark horse with no obvious mountains and no dew. The victory or defeat between the two is becoming more and more white hot.
It is generally believed that there can only be one survivor of these two works in the Oscars, but who is it? Now the award season has just begun, and it is not known who will win.
"Half of the Golden Globe Awards belong to the era of generation Y coming!"
