"Posterity" two trophies, "artist" two trophies, two works respectively lead the plot category and Music Comedy category, become the biggest winner of the 69th Golden Globe Award; Martin Scorsese, Meryl Streep, George Clooney, Michelle Williams and other high-profile stars have their own achievements. The last best screenplay award was awarded to Woody Allen of "midnight Paris", which can be described as a lot of joy and focus.
Another year, the Golden Globe Awards came to an end. As one of the three major wind vanes of the Oscars, in recent years, the title has become more and more unreliable. The Hollywood Foreign Journalists Association has been pursuing entertainment to the death, and its cake sharing skills are becoming more and more perfect. Every year, it is stable, has a share of the audience, lacks surprise and authority.
Looking at the whole list of winners, Langley and Ryan are undoubtedly the biggest regrets.
These two representatives of the new generation of actors are not only the double lifting and double dropping this year, but also the double four lifting and zero hitting. So far, Ryan has won four Golden Globe nominations by virtue of "love of inflatable dolls", "blue Valentine's Day", "crazy and stupid love" and "President's death"; With the help of "Pacific War", "buried alive", "crazy love" and "anti-cancer me", lanli also received four nominations for Golden Globe Awards. However, neither of the two actors was able to make a breakthrough, and both of them were ignored by the Hollywood Foreign Journalists Association.
For Ryan, this year is a breakthrough year. In addition to the two films, another film "driving in distress" won the Cannes Film Festival Best Director Award for its director, Nicolas winding refn. It can be said that the spring breeze is in full swing. It is generally recognized in the industry as the excellent performance of "driving in distress" and "President's death", It's enough for him to fight his way through the awards season.
For Lan Li, it is needless to say that last year, there was a TV series and a film, and this year, there are two independent films and a commercial film. The momentum of growth is irresistible. The outstanding performance of the two works of art this year has made him the most powerful opponent in this year's battle for film supremacy, comparable to Leonardo DiCaprio in 2006.
In those years, with two works of "blood diamond" and "Infernal Walker", Leonardo was fierce throughout the award season. Unfortunately, he met a more powerful Forrest Whitaker, who successfully sniped Leonardo with his soul shaking performance of "last dictatorship".
This year, the overall momentum of lanli is smaller than that of Leonardo. Naturally, the two works can't be compared with that of Leonardo. However, the overall pattern, posture and battle of this year's awards season works are also smaller than that of this year's awards season works. This also makes the opportunities of lanli soar and is likely to create a miracle.
It's a pity that the reality is that Ryan and lanli both lost the Golden Globe Award, and the Oscar nomination was immediately cast a shadow.
After the list of winners came out, some people could not help speculating maliciously whether lanli knew in advance that he had no hope of winning the prize, so he was absent from the award ceremony and expressed strong dissatisfaction with the Golden Globes; However, there is no soil or market for such rumors. They only spread for a short time, and they disappear completely like smoke.
The reason is very simple, this year's award season is a scuffle, small cost and small pattern of film duel. Even Meryl Streep, the "Iron Lady", can't be said to be the best, because the quality of the finished film is too bad, which has seriously delayed the development of the film. The comprehensive evaluation of the media is only 54 points, which can be regarded as the worst. This also makes the suspense of the post movie competition increase sharply. This is especially true in other sectors, where everyone has opportunities and possibilities.
In the two nominations of Langley, he is the most popular winner. In the drama category, he is against Michael faspin, and in the Music Comedy category, he is against Jean Dujardin. If it works properly, it is not impossible for double nominations to win double trophies. Kate Winslet achieved such a feat in 2008, and both "revolutionary road" and "reader" nominated and won prizes.
Even if Lan Li did not win the prize, in this year's chaotic situation, attending the Golden Globe Award will further promote the college's public relations and increase the decisive chips in the third stage, which will do no harm.
It can even be said that maybe this year is the best time for Langley to win the prize.
In the collective melee, there is no absolute strong leader. The excellent performance of "crazy love" and "anti-cancer me" provides a double chip, which is enough to make people ignore the fact that he is only 22 years old and cast a vote for lanli to ascend to the throne of film king. Even in the close combat with close strength, lanli may still be a little ahead - last year's "buried alive" has accumulated a lot of character, as well as all kinds of "anti-cancer me" shooting period, which are bonus options.
Therefore, if it wasn't a last resort, lanli couldn't have missed this year's award season.
Nevertheless, the empty handed return above the Golden Globe Award still makes the media sigh. However, it is a pity that the media can not condemn the Hollywood Foreign Journalists Association, because this is the fact:
This award season is the spring and autumn and Warring States period when a hundred flowers bloom and a hundred schools of thought contend!
Among the best film competitions, "Hugo", "war horse", "posterity", "help", "penalty kick into gold", "desperate driving", "President's death", "midnight Paris", "artist", "crazy love", "anti-cancer me", "girl with Dragon tattoo", "a farewell" and other works all ranked the first group.
The strength of the first group's works is very close, and the average level is almost the same. Among them, it is almost impossible to select any leading figure. Every work has its advantages and disadvantages, and every work has its strengths and weaknesses, even the "descendants" and "artists" who stand out above the Golden Globe Award.
What's more, after the first group, there is the second group, which is in hot pursuit of "cookers, tailors, soldiers, spies", "tree of life", "especially loud, very close", "indistinguishable between male and female", "bridesmaids", "we need to talk about Kevin", "bad guards" and other works. On the one hand, the short board is slightly obvious, On the other hand, the college public relations in the first half of the award season is slightly weaker, but the average level is still not far behind. If it can be reversed at the last sprint of the nomination stage, then the real bayonet will become popular in the third stage.
There are no absolutely strong works, no absolutely weak works, no absolutely outstanding works, no absolutely unpopular works in the last 20 works. This year's award season is really a scuffle. Even after the list of Golden Globe Awards is hot, people still can't predict which works will be included in the Oscar list.
After last year's Oscars, the Academy was in fact controversial.
In 2009, public opinion has been criticizing the Academy for refusing to be flexible, with only five best picture Oscars per year. It's not 80 years ago now. The film industry is becoming mature. The number of works produced each year is increasing, and the number of excellent works is also increasing. Five nominating seats are not enough. There are a lot of regrets every year. So, driven by public opinion, the Academy decided to expand the number of best picture seats to 10.
However, after only two years of implementation, the problem arises again: is the college suspected of making up for the ten nominated seats? Take last year as an example, "Toy Story 3", "bones of winter", "127 Hours", "Inception" and other works were shortlisted, which made people bright and worthy of encouragement; However, these works were completely reduced to spectators at the award ceremony, and they were not accepted. So, does the significance of increasing the number of nominations really exist? Or is it just chicken ribs?
After discussion, the college made a slight change to the policy: there are at least five and at most ten best picture seats each year. There is no hard and fast rule on how many works to nominate.
In other words, if there are many outstanding works, then all the ten seats are full; If there are not enough qualified works and the number of votes does not reach the minimum standard, then there is no demand. Five is five and six is six.
This year is the first year of the implementation of the new policy, and it happened that the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period were in a situation of scuffle. Among the 20 works, there may be ten, but only five were selected. The roller coaster competition of this open pattern is really exciting.
It's not just best picture, it's the same with other departments. It's also a scuffle, but it's a scuffle of the strong——
George Clooney, who has two works of "posterity" and "presidential game", Brad Pitt, who has two works of "penalty gold" and "tree of life", Michael Fassbender, who has two works of "shame" and "dangerous method", and lenley, who also has two works, and Ryan, who has three works.
In addition to these five actors, there are also competitors with good strength, such as Leonardo DiCaprio, Jean dujardine, Gary Oldman, Owen Wilson, waiting for the opportunity.
Among the actresses, Meryl Streep, Viola Davis, Glen cross, Tilda Swinton, Kate Winslet, Charlize Theron, Judy foster, Rooney Mara, Michelle Williams, Felicity Jones, Jessica chastan, Beyonce becko, Judy Dench, Carey Mulligan
All of these are competitors for best actress. Everyone has at least one outstanding work, which has achieved a certain foundation in the early stage of the award season. Relatively speaking, the general trend of this year's actresses is that their strength is outstanding, and the work itself is relatively weak. In addition to "helping" the actresses, the overall momentum of other works is weak, which also means that, The next competition is the competition between the actors.
This is just a list of actors competing for the leading role.
From works to actors, from directors to screenwriters, this year's award season presents a dazzling melee.
What's more gratifying is that the rising momentum of generation Y actors last year has continued, but unfortunately, the thunder is loud and the rain is small. Just like last year, there was a lot of hustle and bustle. As a result, there were not many names on the Oscar nomination list. Fortunately, Natalie Portman succeeded.
What about this year? In the Golden Globe Awards, generation Y actors are wiped out again. Does that mean that even the nomination list will be cleaned up after entering the Oscars? This is not good news. At the same time, it has become the focus of major media attacks after the Golden Globe Award
The rise of generation Y has been irresistible. Should the college be complacent and refuse to keep pace with the times?
