Under the leadership of the staff, lanli quickly came to a waiting room at the end of the corridor. The wine red interior decoration with gold color was the same as this year's stage design; There is a huge display screen in front, and a camera with a red light on opposite.
All the details show the reason and purpose. This is the waiting room for the nominators and the awarding guests.
In order to avoid accidents, the awarding guests and nominators often wait ahead of time. In order to make gags and improve the evening party, the organizing committee specially opened up a standby room to record the gags behind the stage and deal with some accidents in time.
Then there is the so-called unexpected situation.
The penultimate award is for best actor. As the nominator and awarding guest, lanli has no time to get back to his position, so the live standby room is the best choice. Lanli can still appear gracefully on the camera, and will not miss the critical moment when the awards are announced.
In fact, there is not enough suspense and spark in this year's movie king battle.
The five nominees are: Daniel Day Lewis of Lincoln, Langley Hall of detachment, Jacqueline phoenix of master, Bradley Cooper of happiness line behind dark clouds, and Hugh Jackman of miserable world.
Jackman, the quality of the work and the thickness of the performance have not reached enough height, the shortlist is a surprise; Bradley, comedy performance is still lack of persuasion, idol origin of the first nomination or more awards; Lanli, who just won the prize last year, is very young. The overall momentum of his works is submerged in the whole award season, far from reaching the height of being a winner.
In other words, from the beginning to the end of the award season, it's a contest between Daniel Day Lewis and Jacqueline Phoenix.
Interestingly, both Daniel and Jack Kun are pricks. They seldom or refuse to participate in the college's public relations. At most, they only attend the ceremony, which weakens the power of the public relations war to the greatest extent. All the focus is on the individual strength of the actors and the overall evaluation of the works, and they rarely return to the essence of the awards.
In the competition of works, "master" is far less powerful than "Lincoln"; And in the professional competition, Jack Kun is far behind Daniel.
As a result, the suspense of this year's award ceremony has been lifted long ago, and everyone is waiting for Daniel Day Lewis to reach the top again. The whole award season has witnessed Daniel's sweeping army, riding out the dust, and rushing all the way to the little golden man. Once he reaches the top again this year, he will be able to win the prize, So Daniel will be the first actor in history to win three Oscars.
This is history. There is no doubt about history.
Therefore, despite the lack of suspense and spark, the organizing committee still put the best actor at the end of the ceremony - before the best picture award, even behind the two more fierce awards of best director and best actress, because this is likely to be the moment when Meryl Streep will present the award for Daniel Day Lewis, which will go down in history.
Standing in the live standby room, Lan Li's mood is also extremely calm, even slightly excited. It's really wonderful to witness the birth of history.
On the stage, Meryl has completed her own speech, and then introduced the video of the nominees, first Jacqueline, then Bradley, then Daniel, then Jackman, and finally lenley.
What the college chose was the last scene of "detachment". In the desolate ruins, Henry recited Poe's poems, full of scars and vicissitudes. Despair and pain came up little by little. The poetic sadness, like a curl of mist around his fingertips, made the world fall into a ruin.
When the video is finished, according to the Convention, the camera switches to lanli.
Langley stood gracefully and nodded politely to the camera, but then there was an incredible burst of applause in the Dolby theatre, which was almost as loud as Daniel's.
Such an unexpected situation made Lan Li's eyes show a bit of surprise. Obviously, he didn't expect such a warm response, but then he showed a brilliant smile with a gentle and decent smile and expressed his gratitude and respect.
Self confident and calm response, but with a low-key introverted, really like a spring breeze.
Then, the camera switches to Meryl again, and five segmented pictures appear on the big screen to broadcast the reactions of the five candidates in real time. In the expectant sight, Meryl opens the envelope, pulls out the card, and shows an elusive smile on her face. In an instant, it seems to create suspense, but it is pierced in the twinkling of an eye——
"The winner of the 85th Academy Award for best actor is... Daniel Day Lewis, Lincoln."
History is born again.
After witnessing last year's youngest winner of film history, this year witnessed the first three time crowned actor in film history. The history of Oscar is progressing step by step.
At the first time, Lan Li gave warm applause and expressed his high respect!
When people talk about the greatest actor in film history, there will be endless arguments. Everyone has his own choice, but there is no doubt that Daniel is one of them. The three Oscar winners are the best praise. Although they have never been to the top in the three major European film festivals, it still does not damage Daniel's greatness.
Since 1985, when "my beautiful laundry" really came into the public eye, Daniel has starred in a total of 14 works, with an average of less than one in a year, but there are still some high-quality works. Except for the "Nine" in 2009, all other works have received good reviews. He has been shortlisted for five Oscars and won the gold medal for the third time tonight.
As far as lanli is concerned, the most impressive one is always "blood is coming", and the most outstanding one is "in the name of his father". Daniel has contributed his wonderful and shocking acting skills beyond methodology and expressionism. As an actor, his low productivity also gives each character his own soul, which is undoubtedly respected.
Daniel deserves the prize tonight.
Obviously, Langley is not the only one who has such an idea. All the audience in the Dolby theater stood up and applauded. The sound of mountains and rivers was surging for a long time, and the surging sound pushed the climax of tonight's award ceremony to a new height.
There is no need for words, no need for whistles, no need for shouts, just applause, the most simple, the most direct and the most sincere applause, surging in constant gyration, compared with a little golden man, the applause in silence at this moment is more brilliant and more important affirmation, which is the respect from all colleagues, irreplaceable and immeasurable.
Under the hot and boiling eyes, Daniel calmly stepped onto the stage and took his third Golden man trophy from Meryl.
Some people have discussed whether the acting awards of the three major European film festivals are more important or the Academy Awards are more important. The final conclusion is the latter.
reason?
Not because of the evaluation system, but because of the focus of the whole platform.
Among the three major European film festivals, any work that has entered the main competition list is the result of careful selection, and each work is bound to have something to be affirmed. The original intention of the film festival is to show these excellent works of art to more audiences. Naturally, the jury's attention is more focused on the works.
Unfortunately, there is only one highest award, which makes every year's legacy not a few.
In order to make up for such a miss, the director award or actor award may be awarded to other excellent works in the form of "compensation". Of course, this does not mean that the director or actor is not good enough. It just means that the jury of the film festival more stands on the overall height of the work to judge.
As a result, almost every year, performance awards are likely to be popular among the three major European film festivals.
Among Oscars, there is a clear division of labor in the nomination stage. Actors can only vote for the performance department, screenwriters can only vote for the script department, especially for the major awards of technology category. This means that each department itself is recognized from the professional field, stripping off the comprehensive consideration of the work itself, and selecting only from the level of professional skills.
When entering the stage of award voting, different departments can cross vote. However, most actors will also avoid relatively professional technical awards, so as not to pretend to understand and make jokes instead.
Correspondingly, the final ownership of the four Oscar performance awards also reflects the recognition of professional skills. Although there is a cold spot, it is still a cold spot on the basis of strength.
On the other hand, it is precisely because of this voting system that the weight of best picture is more prominent, which can be called the heaviest award in the whole Oscar.
On the whole, even though the Oscar has become a public relations game of the Academy, its authority is still guaranteed, especially on the individual items of various majors, it still occupies a place in the industry, and even in the Acting Department, it is more important than the three major European film festivals.
Of course, this is a matter of different opinions. The acting award of the three major European film festivals is still one of the highest level awards in the industry.
Now, Daniel is officially crowned the Oscar winner for the third time, becoming the first actor to reach such a high level in the long 85 year history, which reminds us of Catherine Hepburn who has been crowned the film queen for four times. Tonight, they witnessed the birth of history and became the witnesses and participants of history. This feeling is really indescribable.
