Just at the beginning, Langley has been named twice, so high frequency, not only because Langley is the absolute focus, but also because Langley and Allen are very intimate.
Allen looked at the camera, waited for the laughter to subside, and then said, "don't blame me, I moved out of Langley hall in the opening stage..." applause and whistles broke out for the third time in a row. Allen nodded, as if to say, "look," that's because tonight's program is live worldwide, except for Langley, I really can't find a common language. In order to keep the audience in front of the TV, I have to do it, right? I have to do it
There was a lot of applause, a lot of noise, a lot of whistling and a lot of screaming.
The camera was aimed at Langley for the first time, and Allen timely introduced, "everyone: Langley hall."
Lan Li, who once again became the focus of attention, showed an appropriate smile in front of the camera, gently indicated his jaw, and then calmly and generously looked at the camera to show his demeanor; But... There's a little problem. The camera never moves away, so it's always locked on lanli. As time goes by, the smile begins to harden, and Allen on the stage doesn't interrupt the camera.
If Langley doesn't understand that it's Allen's prank, then he's not Langley.
"Poof Pooh." But in the end, lanli couldn't hold it back. He couldn't help laughing. He didn't hide it, and he was not embarrassed. He looked at the camera so freely, and his smile overflowed from the corners of his mouth and eyes, revealing his neat and white teeth. The warm smile made everyone in front of the TV smile.
Alan was just satisfied. "Whoa, the director has been yelling in my ear: what to do? What to do? We all think things are going to freeze here." Allen also frankly admitted that it was a prank, and the vivid words made the guests laugh one after another.
"It's been a very hard two days in Los Angeles for the world watching the awards ceremony... It's raining here."
There was a lot of laughter. On the one hand, it mocks itself that it never rains in dry Los Angeles; on the other hand, it mocks that the world is in countless crises, and the only thing Hollywood needs to worry about is rain.
"But we're all right." Alan pressed down with both hands, making a long breath. "Today, before the red carpet officially opened, the heavy rain finally stopped. Thank you for your prayers
Allen's step came to the center of the stage, a simple two words as a warm-up is enough, and now it's time to enter the formal opening stage.
"It's a great honor to be able to come back. Seven years ago, I stood on this stage as the host. I'm so happy to be able to invite me back to host in such a short time." In the applause of all the guests, Allen continued, "things have changed so fast. Last time I presided over, Kate Blanchett nominated, Meryl Streep nominated and Martin Scorsese nominated. This year, it's totally different."
All three names won the nomination again tonight.
Alan pauses. "Oh, sorry, Leo."
This time, it was Leonardo DiCaprio who became the focus, and the whole audience applauded again. Seven years ago, Leonardo was shortlisted for best actor nomination with "blood diamond"; Seven years later, the wolf of Wall Street was absent.
"Of course, there are also some artists who won the nomination for the first time tonight. Bruce Dunn won the nomination with" Nebraska "and won the nomination at the age of 83. He is the oldest nominees in the history of Oscar." The guests applauded their respect. Alan stopped for a moment, took two steps in the direction of Bruce, and said aloud, "I'm telling you that your performance is wonderful, performance, movie."
Even Bruce himself couldn't help laughing when he was making fun of "83 year old".
"What? Not a first nomination? " Allen was stunned - in fact, Bruce had already won a nomination in 1979 with the honor of returning. "Oh, no!" Allen stares at the audience with round eyes. Among the laughter, she directly ignores Bruce and turns away. The laughter is even louder.
"In addition, Lupita nyeono won the nomination for the first time." Ellen went on to say, "she had a wonderful performance in twelve years of slavery. She's from Kenya. She's a Kenyan. Meanwhile, bahad Abdi, a Somali from Somalia, won the nomination for the first time for his outstanding performance in Captain Phillips. So he must know a lot about red wine, which is really great. "
The sound of Somalia is very close to sommelier, which is Allen's joke. The laughter didn't stop at all.
"The real Captain Phillips is here tonight, and the real Philomena is here." "I guess the only one absent is Levine Davis. I'm a little curious about how his ballad career is going," he said
At the same time, Allen also made a thoughtful and sad expression; Then the director put the close-up of lanli on the big screen for the first time, forming a sharp contrast.
Meryl, who was sitting next to her, was completely overjoyed, and the laughter continued.
In the face of the camera close-up, lanli shrugs his shoulders slightly, frowns slightly, droops at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes droop. He looks like he's lost in thought. He seems to notice the lens. He lifts his eyes slightly and looks at the lens. Then the smile at the corners of his mouth rises a little. Then it's fleeting, and he falls back into his mind again.
This is exactly Levine Davis.
"God, I really, really like the 500 mile song." "Five hundred miles" is not Levine's song in the movie.
Then you can see in the camera that Lan Li frowned slightly, raised the corner of his eyes again, and said with his mouth, "go away!" Although it's rude, because it doesn't speak out, it's just a mouth shape. Let the audience imagine, and the TV station doesn't need to screen or silence, which creates the greatest effect.
Even Alfonso, sitting in the back row, could not help but give a round of applause, and his smile was in full bloom.
Although there was no rehearsal in advance, the tacit understanding between Allen and Langley was successful, which made the opening atmosphere immediately start to boil.
"Tonight's theme is' heroes in Hollywood. '" Allen returned to normal, and then his opening words, "now we need heroes more than ever, people all over the world are suffering, and the film provides a short escape from reality. The film enlightens us. I don't mean that the film is the most important thing in the world, because as we all know, the most important thing in the world is youth."
Smile again.
"The most important things in the world are love, friendship and family. If a person doesn't have these things, then... "Alan hesitated for a moment," then he usually goes into Hollywood. "
The audience laughed.
"We are a super scary family." Alan continued, "I want to say, I love you. You're all brilliant. I mean it. Also, I think you are all winners. You should think that you are your own winners, not everyone, but those who have won prizes are winners. "
The camera is again aimed at Leonardo.
Leonardo can't help but help: who did he invite and who did he provoke?
"You might say, Ellen, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk. You've been chosen as the host. This is the highest Oscar Award." After that, Alan began to put his hands together. "Thank you, thank you for the compliment, thank you." So self praise, success once again won a laugh.
"But let's focus on you tonight. In order to host the show, I did a little research. Tonight's nominees made 1400 films. God, 1400 films. That's a huge and amazing number, but you've only been in College for six years. "
Allen a pause to stir up the atmosphere of the scene, everyone clapped and laughed, "four years of which are all from Langley hall alone." Alan mended the knife, and laughter erupted like a volcano. "I'm just kidding, kids. Go to school well. Don't drop out. I promise these actors are college students. Amy Adams, you're college students, right?"
Amy, who became the focus, shook her head shyly.
"No?" Alan's features wrinkled. "Well, who cares. You're a great actor, you nominated two works tonight, that's really... How to say? Well, I think, selfish. " Allen nodded, adding, "it's just like the Langley hall and Meryl Streep, who can never get rid of them."
A burst of laughter, a burst of collective laughter.
"I really think this year's nominations are very special. One of them is" she. " Allen continued to dominate the show. "This' she ', I mean Meryl Streep." "Meryl has won a total of 18 Oscar nominations, which sounds like a good look, but in fact, you should make a good calculation, adding clothes from head to toe, and attending the ceremony costs more than 100000 dollars. In short, it's really amazing that Meryl can afford so many nominations, because nominations are really expensive."
Even Lan Li couldn't help laughing and turned to give her applause.
"So shall we make a bet in Las Vegas: when will Langley hall go bankrupt because of too many awards ceremonies?" Allen's magic stroke successfully ignited the laughter of the whole audience. Just as he was paying tribute to Meryl, he became the object of the whole audience's tribute.
Allen is still a cold faced comedian. "The nominees I mentioned all look like competitors, but each of you is very good. I don't want you to think it's a competition, but a celebration. But... Are you kidding? Oscar is actually a hunger game, I mean: cameras everywhere, you're all starving, and then Jennifer Lawrence won last year, is it a hunger game or something? "
