"The war is about to start, and it is possible that countless families will be destroyed because of the war. On the one hand, we are shouting against the war and maintaining peace; It's a very funny thing. Maybe, some people think that the hosting of the Oscars can dispel the haze caused by the war and make people feel that there is still a lot of joy in life, but I think it's all bullshit. I never thought that a golden statue can be To make up for the pain and haze caused by the loss of a loved one was not before, not now, and will not be in the future. So, holding the Oscars at this juncture is a thing that I can't understand. Important? I'm definitely not going to attend the Oscars this year."

This is Evan Bell's remarks clearly expressed through the microphone when he was surrounded by reporters at the entrance of the Broadway Theater. "Freedom Tower" Wen Cai won the bid. Less than three days have passed. The declaration of war and the Oscars as usual were announced. The media remembers Evan Bell's remarks on the Grammy red carpet: against war, if Oscar still insists on holding it, he will not be present at the awards ceremony. Therefore, after the Oscars were to be held, reporters rushed to the ceremony. Come to contain Evan Bell.

Evan Bell still focused on the rehearsal of "Nine". After being surrounded by nearly 50 reporters, he found that it was impossible to leave, so he stopped to accept an interview. Regarding the war, he saw it with his own eyes. Evan Bell, who broke out on September 11 and participated in the volunteer action, couldn’t be more clear. He was a staunch anti-war activist. Therefore, Evan Bell’s views on the Oscars, which were about to break out, were also very clear. Clear, "Won't be present"

In fact, Hollywood's anti-war voice has always been loud, including Dustin Hoffman, Kim Kelly, Julianne Moore, Ben Affleck, etc. all opposed the war and were shortlisted for Best Actor nominee Adrian - Brody also called out against the war, and director Michael Moore, who relied on the documentary "Columbine Campus Incident", was shortlisted for the best documentary, and made a strong attack on the Bush administration.

"Columbine Campus Incident" is a documentary about gun control in the United States. It recorded the bloodiest school shooting in American history that took place on the Columbine campus in 2008. This documentary has aroused huge international repercussions and also One of the thorns that made Michael Moore listed in the US political fu

It can be seen from this that Hollywood is actually very opposed to war. However, the real implementation is still a lot of thunder and rain. The only people who directly declared that they will withdraw from the Oscar ceremony are only two or three people who have not been nominated. As far as the awards ceremony is concerned, there is no influence among the strongest voices, but the director of the Finnish film "A Man Without a Past", which was nominated for the best foreign language film, Aki Kaurismaki sent a letter to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, condemning American politicians indiscriminately kill innocent people for economic gain

Now, Evan Bell, nominated for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor, and carrying the Golden Globe Award, the North American Broadcasting Film Critics Association, the New York Film Critics Association Award, the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Award, the Directors Guild of America Award, the Screen Actors Guild Award and other series of best supporting actor's aspirations, with the hottest attitude to be shortlisted for the 75th Oscar Best Supporting Actor competition, such an important focus of attention, actually announced that he would withdraw from the Oscar ceremony. Undoubtedly the biggest hit

This time, Evan Bell's remarks were not the predicted answer at the Grammys, but instead said that he will not appear at the Oscars.

On March 20th, the Iraq War started, and on March 23rd, the Oscars ceremony was held. Evan Bell felt that this was really not a good time. The awards ceremony could be held every year, but after the outbreak of the war, life was lost. It can never be recovered. Maybe, some people think that Evan Bell is arrogant and arrogant, and some people think that Evan Bell is out of position to gain attention, and some people think that Evan Bell is full and has nothing to do to care about people far away in the Middle East. Iraq However, in Evan Bell's view, he is just expressing his views, doing what he thinks should be done, and that's it

When everyone is paying attention to the Iraq War, no one really wants to pay attention to the Oscars. Even if they pay attention, the media is surprised. The decision of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Now, entertainment reporters need to pay attention to one more thing: Evan Bell

Evan Bell, the first and only person to be nominated and to decline to attend the 75th Academy Awards, made his point so clearly, couldn't be clearer

As a result, the media is lively again, and the focus of discussion can be more than one. Will Evan Bell's move anger the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences? Will it affect Evan Bell's chances of winning an Oscar in the future? Also, is Evan Bell just talking about it, or is he really not going to show up at the awards show? Finally, professionals were originally optimistic that Evan Bell would win his first golden statue above the Oscars. Now that Evan Bell is absent, will the Best Supporting Actor Award change the trend?

At the party where the nominations for the 75th Academy Awards were announced, films such as "Sniper at the Phone Booth" and "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" failed to make breakthroughs and failed to win a nomination for Evan Bell for the best actor. , the "adapted script" that performed strongly throughout the awards season, but successfully won Evan Bell's first acting nomination in his life: Best Supporting Actor nomination

From this point of view, Evan Bell's 2002 is definitely a complacent horseshoe disease. After the slander incident, it is a strong rebound. If nothing else, the double harvest of music and film awards ceremonies can almost be foreseen. But now, in the award ceremony The last award ceremony of the season is also the most important award ceremony in the film industry: Oscar, when it is about to be held, such an accident happened, and the future development is confusing.

After seventy-five years of Oscar development, the mechanism of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has already formed its own unspoken rules. No one can challenge the authority of the Academy, no matter how big a movie company, no matter how famous an actor, no matter how big it is. It is a successful work. If you want to achieve something above the Oscar, you must have a good relationship with the academy members.

If you want to give examples, there are countless

The "Harry-T" series swept countless numbers at the box office, but never got an Oscar nomination for acting. Don't hope to be in the sight of the academic school within the year; Leonardo DiCaprio's efforts are enough to make people sigh and cry, but they have repeatedly failed, causing many media to hold injustice for him; Martin Scorsese has worked hard for a golden statue for decades, and it took nearly 30 years to get what he wanted.

Let me talk about the two most intuitive examples. At the 83rd Academy Awards in 2011, the "social network", which had a strong lead throughout the awards season, finally lost to the "King's Speech" with strong public relations and returned empty-handed; 2010 At the 82nd Academy Awards in 2018, the "Hurt Locker" achieved a major reversal, and the king of the world "Avatar" returned

It's not that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has a shady scene, it just means that to win the Oscar, the committee members must be satisfied, and the public relations work must be done well. Of course, the above examples cannot be explained clearly in one link. There are various factors working together, but there is one fact that cannot be ignored. If one link goes wrong, it may be lost with the little golden man.

Evan Bell openly challenged the authority of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences this time, and refused to attend the 75th Academy Awards in the name of anti-war. For the members of the Academy, what does it represent? What is the meaning, and whether it will affect the future, no one knows, and no one can predict. After all, the members of the college are all human, and the human heart is the most unpredictable thing in the world, isn't it?

On the other hand, will Evan Bell be concerned about the consequences of challenging the authority of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences? Maybe his future Oscar road will become extremely bumpy. Evan Bell is definitely the strongest contender for the Best Supporting Actor award If he succeeds, he will become the youngest Best Supporting Actor winner in Oscar history

The current record holder is Timothy Hutton, who won Best Supporting Actor for his role as "Ordinary People" at the 1981 Oscars when he was only twenty years old And this time, if Evan Bell wins the award, he will set the record at 20 years and 4 months, becoming the youngest male acting award winner in Oscar history.

Therefore, whether Evan Bell is willing to give up such a good opportunity to miss the Oscars is also the focus of media attention

On March 23rd, stars from all over the world gathered in Los Angeles. The war-torn Iraq still had an impact that could not be ignored. The Kodak Theater not only welcomed the protesters of the citizens, but also all the stars who attended the scene. On the "Artist Anti-War Alliance" Peace Chapter, many people held slogans and shouted anti-war declarations. Most importantly, the red carpet that attracted countless attention was cancelled.

The reporters were divided, the large group was in Los Angeles following the awards ceremony, and a few reporters stayed in New York to follow Evan Bell, and they wanted to know what Evan Bell was doing

The outbreak continues, there will be one more later, please subscribe
