Today's fourth update, please recommend, please subscribe!

Oscar, once a year, has now become the world's largest and most lively entertainment event. In the field of entertainment, there may be countless people who disdain Oscar statuettes, but it is undeniable that Oscar's attention and influence are the highest in the world.

For many actors, it is an absolute honor to walk on the Oscar's red carpet; and if they can be the presenters, it is an honor that the whole world pays attention to. As for getting the little golden man, many people are willing to fight for it all their lives.

Last year, the 78th Oscars set off turmoil on a global scale. After the change of dynasty, the Oscars awarded the final award to the **** work "Brokeback Mountain", which rewritten history and also created history. This is a move by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to fight against the unspoken rules of Hollywood, and the direct result is that the entire American film industry is in turmoil.

The rise of independent filmmakers has continued to impact major film companies, and Eleven Studios is one of them; special themes are emerging one after another, and non-English films have fully invaded Hollywood, such as "Revelation", "Pan's Labyrinth", "Letter from Iwo Jima", " Perfume" are all standouts; there's been a visible shift in the place of gays and lesbians across Hollywood, a massive cast in solidarity with T.R. Knight after the "Grey's Anatomy" brawl broke out; and most importantly, the film industry The turmoil has had an impact on the cultural field, which has directly led to a wave of upsurge in the legalization of **** rights in the United States.

It is now 2007, and the presidential election will continue next year. George Bush can no longer be re-elected, so who will become the new president of the United States has already sparked early discussions. And the wavelength caused by "Brokeback Mountain" also radiates to this part: **** rights have become an important part of political change.

It can be seen why Sid Ganis' "small step" at the Oscars is called a big step in the historical process. And in the future, this influence will continue.

The 79th Oscars, which will be held this year, although there are no works with sensitive themes such as "Brokeback Mountain", the melee situation of competing with each other has also brought Oscar a good opportunity for change for the second consecutive year. Sid Ganis leads the Academy on how to grasp the selection of nominations and how to award various awards. This trend will continue last year's transformative posture, bringing the Oscars back to ten or twenty years ago when they were not dominated by business. In this situation, the work is the focus of the Oscars.

Compared with last year, the situation that Sid Ganis will face this year is more complicated, but the resistance to change is much smaller. Because there is no such a thorn in "Brokeback Mountain", Sid Ganis is selected among the seed players. No one will cause too much controversy. The point is that Sid Ganis must determine the direction of Oscar's reform and adjust the pace of reform. This is the core issue.

A week after the 64th Golden Globe Awards ended, the nominations for the 79th Academy Awards were officially announced in Los Angeles.

This is the most chaotic year in the history of the Oscars, and it is very likely that many actors, directors, and members of the Academy will experience once in a lifetime chaos. Even two years ago, "Crash", "Million Dollar Baby", "The Aviator" The year of the big melee was more than one grade weaker.

The reason for this rare confusion is not what ordinary people think is the average strength of the contestants, the overall quality is not as good as before, etc., but because the academy under the leadership of Sid Ganis has undergone a complete reshuffle. Seventy-eighth The success of "Brokeback Mountain" at the Oscars has disrupted the entire award system. Weathervane's judges have all lost their sense. In the awards season of the past three months, all weather vanes and film critics associations have been crossing the river by feeling the stones, and the chaotic pattern can already glimpse the tip of the iceberg.

Sid Gaines pushed "Brokeback Mountain" to the all-time high of best picture, and the ultimate goal is clearly achieved. In addition, this year's excellent works are indeed endless, and the strength may not be average, but the overall quality is excellent, so that the 79th Oscars have entered the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period ahead of schedule.

"The Departed", "Letters from Iwo Jima", "Perfume", "Dream Girl", "Babel", "Queen", "Flight 93", "Son of Man", "Pan God" The labyrinth" is waiting for an opportunity. In this situation, no one is sure of winning. Even Martin Scorsese and Clint Eastwood are trembling, lest they fall one foot deep and one foot shallow while crossing the river When Oscar came, it fell short.

In the end, the five works of "The Departed", "Perfume", "Letter from Iwo Jima", "Babel Tower" and "Queen" went hand in hand, stepping on a lot of competitors and making them into the final five best picture Oscars. The nomination list made the entire public opinion scream one after another. Compared with previous years, the "Dream Girl", who received a good response from all walks of life, achieved half success in the outpost battle, was lively, and blew orthodox Oscar blood, fell before the finish line. The choices of the past are clearly presented, once again letting people see Oscar's unwavering determination to reform.

Compared with "Dream Girl", "Queen", "Babel Tower", "Perfume" and other niche, literary and individual works have received unprecedented attention; "Perfume" and "Letter from Iwo Jima" are two foreign language works. Being among the top five Oscars has also refreshed history again. The entire Oscar pattern has made everyone fall below the glasses. The most important thing is that the "Letter from Iwo Jima", which was boycotted by the five major trade unions, eventually overturned the "Dream Girl" and was successfully shortlisted. In this chaotic situation, it was considered an unpopular one.

As soon as the nomination list came out, the whole world was leveled. The competition that lasted for the entire awards season finally came to a final result. The three challengers failed to create a miracle, and the "Dream Girl" among the top six lost. Even so, the elusiveness of the best picture still makes people look forward to it.

"The works that win the nomination are likely to win the prize." This sentence was only a polite sentence in the past, but today it is completely true. There is no absolute who wins or loses. No one can clearly grasp the pulse of the academy judges. I can only watch the five alternate players compete head-to-head.

The list of nominations for best director continues the data for best film. The directors of the five best film candidates have successfully become candidates for best director, and the director of "Dream Girl", Bill Condon, once again hated, which is a great deal for the coming trend. The aggressive "Dream Girl" is definitely a fatal blow.

Martin Scorsese, Evan Bell, Clint Eastwood, Alejandro Gonzalez-Inarritu and Stephen Freys The competition for the annual Oscars is fierce.

To everyone's surprise, Evan Bell, who accompanied Martin Scorsese to run the entire awards season, has become the biggest competitor of Martin Scorsese, the uncrowned king, to realize his long-cherished wish. This is really unexpected. to a situation.

Entering the twenty-first century, the most watched director is Clint Eastwood, who has won three Oscars for "Mystic River," "Million Dollar Baby," and "Letter from Iwo Jima." Director nominations, of which "Million Dollar Baby" also achieved Clint Eastwood's second best director award, making him one of the greatest directors in history.

But quietly, Evan Bell has also caught up. The nomination of "Mysterious Skin", "Little Sunshine" and "Perfume" for three consecutive years is no less than a great feat. The four-year-old has become the most talented new director of the 21st century.

Of course, Evan Bell has not yet completed his career, and can only be regarded as a "representative of the new generation", but he has won the recognition of many film festivals such as Venice, Cannes, Gotham Town, etc. in the director position, which also indicates that , Evan Bell's infinite potential is shining little by little. His youth is the biggest disadvantage for winning awards, but it is the biggest advantage for his works, because he is still making progress.

Looking at the five seeds for best director, Clint Eastwood was just crowned two years ago The time to be crowned again has not come; Alejandro Gonzalez-I Naritu keeps repeating himself, and the better "Crash" failed to win the best director two years ago, and this time he is naturally at a disadvantage. So, after taking it all into consideration, Martin Scorsese, Evan Bell and Stephen Freys occupy a favorable position.

Of course, Evan Bell and Stephen Freys are both British, which will inevitably divert the votes of the academy judges, and Evan Bell's youth and the heroine in Stephen Freys's works are too sharp, which are all unfavorable. factor. However, Martin Scorsese's "The Departed" is too commercial, and the subject matter is not the target favored by Oscar, nor is it conducive to Grandpa's ultimate dream.

After a circle, it was the same sentence, everyone has the possibility to win, and the five seeded contestants for the best director also continued the melee situation of the best picture. It seems that Martin Scorsese still has to face huge challenges and pressures to fulfill his dream of unsuccessfully returning to his previous five best director nominations.

In addition to the chaos of Best Picture and Best Director, in fact, among other major awards, the chaos of Best Picture is affected, and the situation of each award is not very clear. Of course, with the exception of Best Actress, this department still continued everyone's predictions and continued the stability of the entire awards season; and Best Actor is another fierce battlefield.
