On the stage, on the right hand side is Natalie Portman, dressed in a red dress, elegant and noble, holding the little golden man with a smile; On the left hand side is lanli hall, a classic black-and-white suit, an elegant gentleman, with a smile radian at the corner of his mouth and a chivalrous demeanor.
The former is the first actor of generation Y to win an Oscar; The latter is the second Oscar winner of generation Y, and also the oldest winner in film history. For the second year in a row, the actors of generation Y have successfully ascended the highest podium; For the second year in a row, the Academy chose young actors of generation Y - and the "mellower the better" actor department!
What's more interesting is that the relationship between Natalie and Langley has lasted from last year to this year. Is this fate or an enemy?
Natalie showed a smile, and a trace of embarrassment and stiffness flashed through her eyes. This should be the first time that the two met in public after last year's Golden Globe Award. Unexpectedly, it was on the stage of Kodak Theater. In just one year, the world has changed dramatically.
Natalie thought she would find banter or ridicule in Langley's eyes, but she failed. Raised his chin, his dark brown eyes filled with bright stars, warm and bright, polite and alienated, perfect and appropriate etiquette without any flaw, as if the Toronto incident had never happened.
Such a beautiful appearance, but let Natalie some embarrassment. He dropped his eyes in a hurry and solemnly handed the little golden man trophy to Lan Li. Then he stepped back two steps in a panic and gave up his position. When he caught Lan Li's back, he remembered: she didn't congratulate her. It's really impolite.
But the opportunity has been missed.
Lanli was adjusting his breath. His heart was surging and his chest was swollen. The boiling emotion was almost breaking through the shackles; Noble etiquette and rules are constantly warning, constantly reminding that he must be happy and angry, he must keep noble grace and calm.
Smile to meet Natalie's line of sight, smile to take the little golden man, smile to the microphone, smile to the stage. All the mood is focused on the control of emotion, but it is still extremely difficult. The fingertips suddenly close, and the palm feels the streamline and edges of the outline of the little golden man. The cold and fierce crash into the warmth of the skin, stirring up a turbulent wave.
He lowered his head and caught the little golden man. The shining cup falls in the palm of your hand, so light, but so heavy.
In a flash, the emotion broke the bank, all the etiquette, all the shackles, all the rules are not count, fiercely rush to the brain, destroy all the education. So embarrassed that Lan Li had to look up at the sky, trying to control his emotions. The heat in his eyes was suddenly turbulent and calmed down, and the sour and astringent nose could hardly be suppressed.
He thinks he doesn't care, he thinks he can be calm, he thinks he won't feel, he thinks he can be normal. But, but
Fingertips closed, and then closed, hard to grip the little golden man trophy, almost crushed it. The surging mood was subdued again, and the blurred vision was clear again. Then, Lan Li lowered his head, showed a smile and met the eyes of the audience.
"I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I hope the Academy won't play music immediately to urge me to leave the stage. " Lan Li joked, but the thick nasal voice revealed his embarrassment and confusion. After a sentence, the strong sour hit on the bridge of the nose again, and the hot tears were almost uncontrollable.
So Lan Li lowered his head. Silently, so quietly standing in place, gradually stiff up the shoulders and arms, revealed the inner surging and sigh; The cream light sprinkles down, gently outlines the outline of the side face, slightly trembles, depicts endless joy and sadness.
Looking at the blue on the TV screen, no words, no action, even no tears, but Matthew Dunlop felt it, deeply felt the surging of blue's heart.
Matthew is sitting quietly in the sofa of his New York apartment, quietly watching blue Li bathed in the spotlight, quietly watching blue Li trying to control his emotions, but two attempts in a row ended in failure. That share of forbearance and release, in the contradiction of a thousand words, a word is hard to say.
Surging moved in the heart slowly flow, involuntarily, eyes on the red up, before realizing, hot tears fall down. However, Matthew's smile rose quietly. He drew out a cigarette and held it to his mouth. No lighting, no wiping tears, just quietly taste the moment of miscellaneous, joy and happiness blooming in tears.
On the Hollywood Highland Center Square next to the Kodak Theater, there was even more sobbing. One after another, the "young master" became more and more excited, more and more moved, and more and more hoarse. The twinkling tears formed an ocean. At this moment, they were completely released.
Lan Li raised his head again, his eyes covered with a thin layer of water mist, slightly invisible, but the world was full of gorgeous colors, and fainted between the light and the dark bit by bit. "It's really a long way to go, and I even doubt that it's consumed all my luck. Well, maybe from today on, I should go to church. "
There was a touch of hoarseness in his voice, which revealed a trace of vulnerability and confusion. The light and funny words made the audience laugh.
very long? For the audience, lanli, who is only 22 years old, is the fastest actor to reach the top; But for Lan Li, he has gone through a long life of two generations, the years of self-restraint, the ten years of physical and mental imprisonment, and the twenty years of walking alone. All the way to this stage, he spent two lives and experienced countless vicissitudes and frustrations. At last, we arrived at the end.
His fingertips were shaking slightly. Lan Li couldn't help but close them. He held the little golden man so tightly that his fingertips began to turn white. "I was told that I was not a genius and never was; My dream is meaningless, all the persistence is just stupid, I should learn to give up Lan Li's smile bloomed quietly and was dazzling.
Laughter came from under the stage. Everyone thought that Lan Li was joking; But Edith and Matthew in front of the TV knew that lenley didn't.
"But now, I'm standing here, accepting countless eyes, envious, envious and hateful." Lenley's easy words with a trace of ridicule, can always easily trigger laughter, one after another, this time, even Brad Pitt can't help smiling, "for an actor without talent, I guess, I must work very hard, even I don't realize how hard I work."
Such self ridicule and banter ignited the laughter of the whole audience. Ryan whistled and yelled, "you're the best, Langley." it was so abrupt that the laughter became more intense.
"I know." In the direction of Ryan, Langley accepted the praise calmly. His confident and upright attitude successfully won the applause of the whole audience.
It's a moment for blue Lee. It's a trophy for blue Lee. There is strength, there is luck, but no one can deny that this is blue Lee deserved. From "buried alive" to "Crazy" and "anti-cancer me", to "detached", this young actor has already proved his strength and talent.
"Every actor is narcissistic. Look, I'm a typical representative. All the speeches are about myself. It's not a good sign, so I think I should thank the others. " Lanli's words were so free and humorous that the laughter in the theater could not stop.
"Jennifer, felicity, Charlie, and the other actors and partners of the cast, thank you for your company. Without you, the work would never look like this in the end. I'd like to thank you one by one, but obviously my head is in strike mode now, so when I go back, I'll make a list and communicate slowly. "
This time, it was Jennifer Lawrence's turn to whistle, and there was laughter and applause.
"And Drake doremus. On top of the triliuride Film Festival, you tell me, this film belongs to me. At that time, I believed you, so "crazy love" was born. Now it seems that you are right. " In a different way, Langley expressed his thanks to Drake. "This is your movie. I'm honored to be a part of it."
Drake, sitting in the audience, was already in tears. At last, he buried his head between his hands and burst into tears. Only he knows what the movie "crazy love" means; Only he knows what it means to play Jacob.
Tonight, "crazy love" was awarded not only for the affirmation of Randy to Drake, but also for the memory of Drake.
"Finally..." lanli stopped slightly, his voice choked again, and the figure, Heather cross, came to mind again.
Only two weeks have passed since she left, but it seems that a century has passed. All the memories are pouring in. She missed the Grammy and the Oscars. On the way to his dream, she was not able to accompany him here after all.
"Finally, I would like to thank everyone who perseveres on the road of dreams. Maybe I was stupid. Maybe Lan Li wanted to say and stop, and there were countless words to express, but he didn't speak at last. He just raised the little golden man in his hand and stopped in the air for two times. All the words were contained in the dark brown eyes.
The dim tears reflect the brilliant light. The firm and powerful faith outlines the outline of that handsome face, like Sisyphus, like Don Quixote, like... Langley hall. Even if the dream is stupid, even if the reality is cruel, but he still has no regrets.
Then, without stopping, Lan Li turned and left the stage, leaving only a figure behind. In the light and shadow, he pulled the elder.
