It's a surprise to compare Oscar to a hunger game, but I have to admit that... It's a bit similar.
The audience in front of the TV, especially the young audience, clapped and laughed one by one, and the instant tweets on twitter were very lively; But the guests at the Dolby theater didn't like it very much. They only responded with a few laughs, including lenley.
Lenley gently stirred his hands to pay homage to Allen.
In the face of the sparse applause, Allen didn't mind. He shrugged his shoulders and turned his mouth. The expression seemed to say: the truth is always disliked. He handled the situation calmly and easily; Then, Allen took the opportunity to bring the topic to Jennifer Lawrence.
Allen began to make fun of Jennifer's accidental fall when she was on stage last year, and then made fun of her another fall when she was on the red carpet tonight. He even said, "if she wins the prize again tonight, I think we should take the initiative to send the little golden man. I don't want you wrestling any more. "
Before and after, Allen spent nearly 90 seconds joking about Jennifer's "wrestling" Terrier - for the opening of the Oscar ceremony, each guest or film can only get 20 seconds or less, while Jennifer has more than four times the space, and her unique treatment once again highlights her "college favorite" status.
Sitting in the audience, Harvey Weinstein is hidden in the crowd. When the camera doesn't scan, he is almost invisible. But at this time, he is completely relaxed, immersed in the laughter of the whole audience, and laughs freely. It seems that he can't be more satisfied with Allen's laughter.
At this time, the camera lens is aimed at Jennifer. When sweeping the whole scene, it inadvertently takes Lan Li not far away.
Most of the people's attention was on Jennifer and Allen. Instead of paying attention to lanli, Harvey noticed that lanli still clapped politely and gracefully, with a relaxed smile on his face.
Harvey's eyes flashed a fierce light, he would break the perfect mask bit by bit, and then look forward to seeing the panic expression behind the mask! This is his game, no one can be wild in his territory! Not even Langley hall!
No one should forget that this year's awards season, Weinstein brothers and Warner Brothers launched a close competition, and the addition of Thomas tour made the situation more complicated.
In the nomination stage, Warner brothers won, "gravity" took the lead with 11 nominations, while Weinstein brothers' "Philomena" and "August: Orange County" fell behind, but this is still not the end of the story; In the second stage, the "American scam" has sprung up and started to fight against it forcefully. The reputation and support on the main awards have even faintly exceeded the "twelve years of slavery" and "gravity", and become the leader.
Originally, it was a three legged structure, and the gap between the three works was not too obvious. Now the trend of momentum has completed a new round of shuffling. We can see some clues from the seating arrangement at the award ceremony tonight.
Behind this, the Weinstein brothers played an important role.
Tonight, it's harvest time.
Harvey laughed again. He seemed very satisfied with Allen's humorous burden. He gave applause and even whistled. It's going to be a great night, isn't it?
The joke about Jennifer has come to an end for the time being. Allen walks back to the central area from the left side of the stage. "You are very beautiful tonight, win or lose. Everyone here is very beautiful. Sandy, you are very beautiful; Kate, you're beautiful, too. Everyone looks amazing. I'm not going to judge who's the most beautiful one here tonight, but it's clear... Langley hall, he's the most beautiful one. "
The camera was immediately on Langley.
Then the audience can see that Lan Li was slightly stunned, but still calm, slightly raised his chin, put on a posture of "Ladies attend social occasions, but still in the attention of the whole audience are decent", arrogantly and politely toward the left and right sides of the micro jaw head, with a little dignity in the reserve.
If you have to describe it appropriately, it's Miss beauty pageant.
It didn't need too much language, but lanli's posture and expression ignited the laughter of the whole audience.
Meryl and Kate, who were sitting beside them, also laughed happily. Kate turned aside and gave applause to Lan Li, as if to say, "this is the most beautiful beauty tonight.".
"Yes, that's him, Langley. That's the most beautiful one tonight." Standing on the stage, Alan kept repeating, "look at him, Mr. Langley. Everyone calls him Mr. Langley. I mean, who can refuse him? Not even me. "
The laughter at the scene became more wanton.
Lanli's eyes also turned to Allen, and their eyes met in the air. Then lanli said with his mouth, "are you serious? Again? "
This scene was truly recorded by the camera, just two words, "seriously" and "again", but the situation at this time was interpreted incisively and vividly, and evolved into a kind of interesting sketch style, which let the audience enjoy it with relish.
Alan, too, widened his eyes and, of course, responded with his mouth, "why not?" And then he said, "do I have a better choice at the scene? I mean, look at this lovely man in front of me. He can capture my heart easily. How can I say no to him? Obviously, there is a reason why people call him young master. " At the same time, Allen also made a hand holding the heart of the action, with their own words.
All the female guests at the scene began to whistle. The scene was very lively.
Langley spread out his hands, then said with his mouth, "Jared Leto."
"Jared Leto?" Alan receives the signal, "Oh, how can I forget, the recommendation from the most beautiful person tonight, Jared Leto."
The camera immediately switched to close-up and locked Jared on the right.
In order to shoot "Dallas buyers club", Jared, who has long hair, is wearing a white suit tonight and is making a quiet and beautiful man. Unexpectedly, he suddenly becomes the focus of the topic. He also has a confused face, spreads out his hands and shakes his head. He seems to be saying, "what's the matter with me?"
The brief confrontation between Raleigh and Allen, the tacit understanding and sparks, is really impressive. Although it didn't take up as much time as Jennifer just did, it was able to show the wisdom and humor of lenley in the gap, which caused more discussion.
Now the camera and the conversation are all about Jared.
"Yes, Jared is gorgeous, too." Allen nodded in affirmation. "He won the best supporting actor nomination tonight, and Matthew McConnell is also very beautiful, but different from it, there is a kind of rough beauty, dirty beauty." The audience burst into laughter, Matthew also indicated his short hair, seemed to complain: he is the clean one“ It's good and dirty, not bad. "
"Both won nominations for the Dallas buyers club, a work of weight." "The movie is about the problems of having fun in a cowboy shop," Allen added Alan shook his head solemnly. "Don't do that. It looks tempting, but... Er... "
"When it comes to the cowboy shop, Bruce Dunn is here." Alan continued the topic, and then the camera caught Bruce Dunn. He joined his daughter, Laura Dunn, to attend the award ceremony tonight. Laura is also an excellent actor. Her representative works are "my heart is wild" with Nicholas Cage, as well as a series of works such as "perfect world" and "Jurassic Park".
It's very interesting to mention Bruce Dunn at this time, because Bruce started from western movies. In his early career as an actor, he always played the villain in western movies.
Don't need to say more. Just as Alan mentioned Bruce, the guests laughed. "I just want to make a transition. I don't know why I said that." Allen then mended his mistake. "About Bruce's life experience, his grandfather was the governor of Utah, his great grandfather was a Pulitzer Prize winning poet, and his godmother was Eleanor Roosevelt. How can you get so far in the audience tonight?"
All the audience laughed.
As soon as the camera lens has just shifted, we can see the expression of "I'm ready" on lanli's face. Then Allen looks at lanli and sees her expression at a glance. She is slightly stunned, "aha, someone has peeked at my script, so I won't go according to the script."
Ellen just skips lanli and continues to walk to the other side of the stage with a light smile. But then her steps stop and her body still doesn't turn around. She just turns her head and looks at lanli with exaggeration. "A quick question, and what's the matter with you?"
Compared with Bruce, the stem of hereditary aristocracy, Langley is obviously more suitable.
Lan Li pursed the corners of his mouth, gently jaw head, as if to say: I know.
The audience couldn't stop laughing, even with applause and whistles. Then you can see that Lan Li also raised his voice and said, "I'm curious, too."
This time, it's not the mouth shape, but the voice, with the unique British self mockery and banter, to express their views in an ironic way.
Meryl and Kate, sitting beside them, heard the answer clearly, clapping and laughing.
Allen also heard it and gave a big smile to lanli, while the other guests on the scene exchanged their eyes quickly: what did lanli say just now?
But Allen didn't give more time to respond, because the live broadcast had to go on. She turned her head, relieved her extremely awkward action, and returned to her opening speech. However, on the social network, there was already a frying pan, and everyone was discussing it enthusiastically.
Of course, this is not the first time in the history of Oscars, and it is not expected to be the last.
