Chapter 894

Red velvet, golden arcade, black stage, navy blue trim, and cream halo. Inside the Kodak Theater, you can see the magnificent, luxurious and retro scenes. With the pace, time goes back bit by bit. It seems that you have returned to the golden sixties of Hollywood, or even the more distant thirties and twenties, and awakened the beauty and moving of the film at the beginning of its birth.

The theme of the 84th Oscar is nostalgia.

Among the nine best picture nominations, "midnight Paris" returned to the golden age of art in Paris in the 1920s by crossing midnight, "Hugo" reappeared the magic and beauty at the beginning of the film's birth, "artist" told a Hollywood fairy tale in the form of black and white silent film when the era of sound film came.

The three works are the leaders in the nomination stage, together with "posterity" to form the first group of the award season, and gradually stand out and become the hot winners, which undoubtedly clearly shows the value orientation of the college this year.

Everyone says that colleges are the most narcissistic. They love themselves deeply, cherish the golden age of Hollywood deeply, immerse themselves in the glorious years of movies, and immerse themselves in the emotions of self pity, self love and self encouragement.

In the history of Oscars, "Sunset Boulevard", "behind the scenes lies", "adapted screenplay", "floating life like a dream", "comet beauty" and other works about Hollywood's own stories have always won special favor; To some extent, the Academy prefers directors who perform well and direct well, which is also in a continuous line.

This year's stage layout, the college will be such a fine tradition to play incisively and vividly. It seems that the best film tonight should be the tripartite confrontation of "midnight Paris", "Hugo" and "artist" - the speculation before the award ceremony has been further confirmed.

In the hustle and bustle of greeting, Langley saw Ryan Gosling in the crowd, "Hey, man! Here, here

In the past year, Ryan, who has contributed three masterpieces of "crazy stupid love", "presidential murders" and "desperate driving", did not receive an Oscar nomination, but attended the award ceremony as a guest tonight. At this time, he jumped up with a smile, waved his right hand high, and welcomed Lan Li with incomparable enthusiasm.

Lenley walked forward, and Ryan gave him a hug. "Just now, I was texting Paul to guess if you won't be here tonight." It's not a simple greeting hug, but a heavy and tight hug. After staying for a long time, I really felt the concern and worry from Ryan.

Langley was dumbfounded. "Paul? When did you get in touch? " I patted Ryan on the back to thank him and to respond: he's fine now.

"After the last meeting, we exchanged phone numbers. We are all worried that one day you will suddenly disappear. " Ryan did not make complaints about himself. After loosening his arms, he turned a big white eye and Tucao without mercy. "Indeed, you really disappeared."

Next time Paul and I go surfing, you can join us

Looking back, lanli looked back and forth, worried that his standing position might block the way of other guests. But the next second, Ryan patted lanli on the shoulder, "look, your position is here, next to me."

Following Ryan's line of sight, then lanli saw a white card hanging on the back of the seat, which read "lanli hall".

This is an area right in the middle of the stage, and the first three rows are all eye-catching positions. At this point, Langley was placed close to the left aisle, with Ryan Gosling on the left and Jessica chastan, Emma stone and the main Cass of the whole "help" crew on the right.

In front of him are Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and Meryl Streep. Behind them are Martin Scorsese, ASA Butterfield and the whole Hugo crew.

Lan Li did not immediately sit down and looked around. "Why didn't I see my crew?"

Tonight, the "crazy love" crew sent a total of three people to attend the award ceremony, the other two are Drake doremus and Jennifer Lawrence.

As "crazy love" only received a nomination for best actor, only Langley and Drake got the chance to attend, while Jennifer got the invitation by virtue of her activity in the past year; As for felicity Jones, she regretfully missed the event.

As he spoke, Langley saw Drake sitting on the right side of the fourth row.

Drake looked very nervous. He pulled his suit jacket awkwardly and looked around. In the noisy meeting hall, he looked like a lost child.

Lenley and Ryan give a sign, then take the initiative to go over and say hello to Drake. Small move, but let Drake joy up, murmured, "people here look tall, I feel really not adapt." The words of complaint made Lan Li laugh happily.

Back in position, the right-hand "help" crew has been basically seated.

Emma was the first to jump up, not concealing her excitement; Ryan make complaints about rash, "Elmar, I thought we were partners, not blue gifts." All the people couldn't help laughing, then taking photos and greeting. The scene was very lively.

After a long busy time, everyone sat down again and again, but the guests who came to greet Lan Li were still in an endless stream. They were busy until the light on the scene was slowly dim, and the scene slowly settled down and gradually quieted down, but the surging agitation still lingered.

Jessica, sitting on the other side, adjusts her posture. Lanli can feel her uneasiness and tension. Although Jessica has been wallowing in Hollywood for seven or eight years, this year she got the chance to attend the Oscar for the first time. "Tree of life" and "help" really made her appear in people's eyes.

"In the end, we should sigh that Hollywood events are all a virtue; Or should we be surprised, even if the same, but Oscar can still make our stomach hot? " Lan Li lowered his voice and joked.

Jessica turned her head, and then she saw blue Li's eyes shining in the dark, with the light of banter. Unconsciously, Jessica chuckled and said, "who can see and wear it except Woody Allen?"

Even Alfred Hitchcock, Stanley Kubrick and Charlie Chaplin have not been able to get rid of their deep desire for the little golden man.

Langley shrugged. "Like me?"

Looking at Langley's serious expression, Jessica recalled that last year, Langley missed the Oscars. But at this time, Lan Li clearly put on a high posture of boasting, which set off the meaning of sarcasm and banter, causing Jessica to laugh.

Immediately, Jessica realized that her voice was too loud. At this time, it was quiet around her. She quickly covered her mouth with her hands, but the smile from the bottom of her eyes was still surging.

Looking up, Jessica only saw a profile of lanli's face. He had turned his head to face the stage, waiting for the start of the award ceremony. His calm and calm manner infected Jessica. Deep in his heart, he was still uneasy, but he calmed down a little. So Jessica turned to the stage and let out a long breath.

The award ceremony began.

Tonight, the Academy revisited the opening ceremony of the 1920s and 1930s: Morgan Freeman acted as the announcer and introduced the host Billy Christo.

Billy Christo, the comedian, is undoubtedly one of the most successful and popular hosts in the history of the Oscars. This year is his ninth time to host the Oscars. In the era of televised awards ceremony, the number of appearances is the highest in history.

After the disastrous hosting of James frank and Anne Hathaway last year, the college was helpless to invite Billy out of the mountain again; Billy repeatedly declined, hoping to give others more opportunities, but the college had no choice at all. After many pleadings, Billy reluctantly took over the hot potato.

At the beginning, it was still the typical Billy Cristo. In a short video clip, the popular works of the past year are mixed and edited. There are not only Oscar nominated works such as "artist", "Hugo" and "posterity", but also outstanding commercial box office works such as "Harry Potter", "mission impossible 4" and "cat in boots".

What's special is that Billy will guest star in one of these clips, such as the wife who becomes a vegetable in "posterity" and kiss George Clooney; For example, in "mission impossible 4", the ordinary people who look at Tom Cruise face to face make fun of all the works in the way of joking.

The climax of the short film comes from the appearance of Justin Bieber.

Billy guest starred in "midnight Paris" in Owen Wilson as the hero, midnight happened to meet a carriage, and then returned to the golden age of Paris. But this time, Justin Bibb was sitting in the carriage, and the two men also had to make complaints about themselves.

Billy: what are you doing here?

Justin: I'll give you 18-24 ratings.

Billy: what's the matter with Langley hall? Is he absent again?

All the guests clapped their hands and laughed together, making fun of each other, walking between the film and the award ceremony, reality and script, which really caused a burst of laughter in the audience. Even Lan Li couldn't help laughing.

Finally, at the end of the film, Billy imitates the little golden man's standing posture and walks from the big screen to the reality stage. With the curtain falling, Billy really appears in front of everyone and the whole audience applauds.

With all the attention, Billy went all the way to the front of the stage to accept the cheers of the whole audience, but his steps did not stop, but all the way down the stage; Such an unexpected move made the cheers and applause on the scene even more turbulent, and then Billy stopped in full view——

Standing next to Ryan and Langley.
