The 80th Oscars have finally come to an end. "Blood Will Come" and "No Country for Old Men" are divided into two categories. The former won the best director, best actor, best cinematography and best sound editing. It won three major cities: Best Picture, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Adapted Screenplay. "Ratatouille" dominated the best animated feature film, best original screenplay, two heavyweight awards, and the results were a bit weird; "The Bourne Bourne 3" became the biggest surprise, with two awards for best editing and best sound effects. The statuette is full of weight; "Life of the Rose" has the best actress and the best makeup.
The distribution of awards seems to be divided into cakes. Almost everyone has important awards. There is no situation where one work dominates. But in fact, after careful analysis, it can be seen that one of the most important reforms of Oscar is "Work Supreme"! Whether it's a general award or a technical award, Sid-Ganes is implementing the fact that the Academy under his leadership will not make any distinction between commercial, independent or art films, as long as there are Strength, that is what the academy awards!
If five years ago, films such as "Brokeback Mountain" and "No Country for Old Men" won the Oscar for best picture, it would have been an unimaginable fact. The former was quiet and atmospheric, but had the fatal wound of homosexuality; the latter was so black It's merciless, the blood is so **** that it makes one's bones chill, and the theme is so profound and obscure that it is almost literary. However, in the past few years, under the leadership of Evan Bell, the representative of independent production, the trend of independent and artistic works is on the rise. The previous year, "Little Sunshine Beauty" won the North American weekend box office for the first time in history. Champion, this shows that independent producers can also make a difference at the box office; and now Oscar has used the golden man to honor the golden man who used to find a balance between the public and the critics, but now he is more determined and resolute He defends his own choices, even if he involuntarily leans toward the critics' choices, even if he pays a heavy price in terms of ratings, but the concept of the work as the core has not been shaken in the slightest.
The previous year's "Brokeback Mountain", last year's "The Departed", and this year's "No Country for Old Men" are all like this; including "Blood Will Come", which won the Best Director Award, is no exception. In terms of the selection of the best film, the 80th Oscars can definitely be regarded as an award ceremony that continues the past. In "No Country for Old Men", the "evolutionary theory of human nature is inherently evil", and the cruel ending of the small without mercy, although it also reflects the politics by discussing the issue of Vietnam War veterans, and also mocks the Bush administration through the stories of greed and burns, but the ending is The "older generation" who has been eliminated by the big social machine can only be content with their own incompetence and obedience to the abandonment of fate, otherwise there is only a dead end.
In addition, "Blood is Coming" won four important awards including best director and best actor, and became the biggest winner this year, which also shows Oscar's determination to reform. "Blood is Coming" satirizes various problems in today's society through the mutual use and betrayal of the capitalist father and the religious expansion process; and the story that focuses on the two protagonists because of excessive ambition and greed is even more in the red fruit. Fruitfully mocked the US White House mired in the quagmire of Iraq; the interaction between Danielle-Plevy and H.W. Plevey and Henry Plevey made a savage attack on the indifference to kinship in society. I have to say that Oscar's choice is too decisive. The "Blood Will Come", known as "the 21st century 'Citizen Kane'", is actually making the cruelest mockery of American society in the 21st century. And contempt, and on the occasion of the 80th birthday, Oscar used such a method to step into a new future.
From the selection of the best film and the division of the overall awards, almost more than 70% of the media are willing to make the 80th Oscars an award ceremony to carry on the past! Such Oscar not only did not rest on his laurels because of his 80th birthday, but was confined to a small circle of self-entertainment, on the contrary, he was prepared for danger in times of peace and strode into a new era. Perhaps, the award division of the 80th Oscars is not perfect, but it is a year that will continue the past and usher in the future.
At this point, the Grammys and the Berlin Film Festival must all learn from Oscar, and Sid-Ganes's courage to reform is enough to make them awe-inspiring. Maybe the way of reform is different, but this courage is indispensable, otherwise they will only face a downhill road leading to the **** of death.
In addition to the best film, the selection of the best director once again highlights the courage of the academy, continuing the theme of "carrying on the past and opening up the future".
Lee, Ann, Martin Scorsese, Evan Bell, the list of winners for the past three years, which makes the negative impact of the "New York area factor" in Los Angeles, Hollywood's stronghold, almost negligible, while Julian-Shobel, The shortlisting of rookies such as Tony Gilroy also shows the academy's firmness in cultivating newcomers, and Evan Bell is even more outstanding. The feat of being nominated for the nomination list for four consecutive years, he won the best director Xiao Jin at the age of 25. People, who have completed director slams around the world, can see the attitude of Sid Ganis. This time Evan-Bell's award has fully utilized independent production, anti-tradition, personality and other factors to the extreme, which makes people start to look forward, and it seems that it is not too far from Evan-Bell's further progress.
Above the 80-year-old Oscar, Evan-Bell captured the Golden Man for Best Director. There are too many breakthrough points.
First of all, Evan Bell is only twenty-five years old. To be precise, it is twenty-five years and one hundred and five days old. This record is estimated to be difficult to break. When Skin" won the best director nomination, the record for the best director nomination was only twenty-four years old before the best director nomination was in the bag - set by John Singleton in 1991, and now Evan At the age of 25, Bell was only a year older than the record for the second youngest best director nomination in history - winning the best director golden statue at the age of 25, which is absolutely as difficult as the sky.
In addition, the youngest record for best director before this was thirty-two years old, and that was already seventy-five years ago, and that was the record left at the fourth Oscars, which was the immaturity of the Oscars. In the early days, there is no reference value; while the penultimate youngest record was set in 1999 by 34-year-old Sam-Mendez, which is relatively recent, and Sam-Mendez also set a series of records. , he won the Oscar for best director of the Golden Man in the director's first female work, which is unmatched by Evan and Bell. However, Evan Bell was only twenty-five years old when he won the award, which not only lowered the record for the youngest best director by seven years, but also created an almost insurmountable record.
Secondly, Evan Bell broke the geographical restrictions, and the New York area factors, British origin and other restrictions were ignored, and then think about last year's "Perfume" won the nomination for Evan Bell, and this year's "Diving Bell and Butterfly" was Julian Yilu With Schobel winning the nomination, the language factor is being eroded.
It can be seen that the Academy has made a drastic approach to Oscar's reform. From "Brokeback Mountain", the beginning of the stormy waves, after going through the chaotic situation of the Spring and Autumn and Warring States last year, to this year's five generations and ten kingdoms-like competition, Sid Ganis' reform plan for Oscar finally revealed its original appearance.
It's no wonder that Evan-Bell made a lot of rhetoric at the Oscars and said those words without hesitation in his acceptance speech, although Evan-Bell once again stated that he really didn't mean anything special, he just said it out of feeling—— This is true; but it is still believed that Evan Bell made this statement with the tacit approval of Sid-Ganes.
However, there is another argument that is more based on rumors. This argument believes that there can be no communication between Sid Ganis and Evan Bell, because even Sid Ganis cannot know in advance the ownership of the final award, but Sid and Ganis understood Evan-Bell's emphasis on the work and also understood Evan-Bell's point of view, so they awarded the best director to Evan-Bell, and Evan-Bell really said in his acceptance speech Sid-Ganes's true thoughts.
No matter what the truth is, "No Country for Old Men" won the Best Picture Award and Evan Bell won the Best Director Award, not only creating a record, but also gradually moving the Oscars into a new era. Evan Bell is undoubtedly an Oscar - or a role that cannot be ignored in the history of American film development. Unconsciously, Evan Bell has become an indispensable and important part of the history books. American film History is destined to have a world that belongs to the name "Evan Bell".
In addition to the two awards of best film and best directoracting awards, the winners of the script department and the technical department, all of them prove the ideas of Sid Ganis. Everything speaks in the works. In the competition in various departments, including the most popular title of Leonardo DiCaprio, from the film emperor, the film queen to the best supporting actor, the best supporting actress, and then to the best The adapted script and the best original script, after all the awards are strong collisions, won with the strength of the work itself. The so-called sympathy votes and favor votes have been controlled as much as possible, and the fight for each award can be called a Thrilling, otherwise there wouldn't be Marion and Cotillard winning Best Supporting Actor, or Heath-Ledger winning Best Supporting Actor, let alone "Bourne Bourne 3" winning Best Editing Award.
It can be seen from this that the Oscar awards are devoted to the work and the role, even if there are various flaws and deficiencies, but in terms of the work, as long as the performance is good enough, then it is worthy of praise. More importantly, Leonardo DiCaprio broke the shackles of decades and won the film emperor, and Marion and Cotillard became the second actress after Sophia and Roland to be enthroned with "foreign language acting skills". It also makes people clearly realize that the so-called independent production is no longer a problem, and similarly, commercial blockbusters will not be an obstacle, and the work is the core of the eternal.
All of this is really a good thing for the 80-year-old Oscar, which makes people see again the purest appearance of Oscar in the 1980s and 1990s.
