Chapter 45： Golden Globes

"Titanic" is a film produced and distributed by 20th Century Fox and operated by CAA's agency, so in terms of Oscar operation, in addition to Bill McNick's strong contacts, CAA's boss Brian Lord also deliberately A banquet was arranged.

Let Cameron, Dunn, Leonardo, Kate, the main creators of "Titanic", have a meal with some of the old men of Oscar, and keep friendship.

Tang En didn't like this kind of occasion very much, but he was good at dancing with long sleeves.

After having a profound conversation with Francis Coppola, Dunn's malice towards stubborn old men like Oscar has been reduced a lot.

After all, they are real Hollywood filmmakers, not capitalists who control the life and death of film companies.

No matter how big the contradiction between people in the circle is, it is also an internal contradiction.

The Oscar nomination vote will be held on February 1 next year, and the deadline for registration is one week.

There are still two months left, and all the monsters, ghosts, snakes and gods have appeared one after another. The cold winter is precisely the hottest and busiest season for Oscar.

With the assurance of Francis Coppola, and the operation of Bill McNick and Brian Lord, Dunn was nominated for the Oscar for best director, which is not a big problem.

The post-production of "My Great Greek Wedding" has been roughly completed, and it's the dubbing stage.

During this period of time, I don't know if Oscar's competitors deliberately smeared him, or just to gain popularity. There were a lot of reports on Dunn's private life in the gossip tabloids.

Liv Tyler, Kate Winslet, Katherine Heigl...even Nicole Kidman, on the list!

Others are easy to say, but Nicole Kidman's husband is Tom Cruise, so the pressure made her get angry when she saw Dunn.

"Nicole! Nicole, don't get excited, listen to me, nothing happened between us, right?" Dunn avoided Nicole Kidman's frosty eyes.

"But you have caused serious trouble to my marriage!" Nicole Kidman was crazy.

Dunn explained patiently: "Nicole, think about it, does Tom Cruise believe in you? If he believes in you, naturally everything is fine. If he doesn't believe in you... Then do you still need to be angry?"

"You... what do you mean?" Nicole Kidman was startled.

Dunn said solemnly: "Nicole, although you and I don't have much contact with you, I know that your married life is not happy, and you have been living in the shadow of Tom Cruise, you can't get rid of his shadow, You have only one impression on everyone, and that is Mrs. Cruise!"

"What exactly do you want to say?"

Nicole Kidman calmed down and gradually felt that her body was chilling.

"Have you ever thought about leaving him?"

Dunn's words resounded in Nicole Kidman's ears like a thunderbolt, and the turquoise eyes released an incredible light.

……

Time flies, it is 1998.

In addition to continuing in individual theaters, "Titanic" has been released worldwide, and the global box office has accumulated to 1.87478 billion US dollars, successfully completing the target predicted by Dunn. Among them, the North American box office was 600.46 million US dollars, which made the entire Hollywood dizzy.

Dunn's other film "My Great Greek Wedding" has officially completed post-production, and is about to discuss distribution with Twentieth Century Fox.

On January 18, the main event will be the "Golden Globe Awards" organized by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which will be held at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills on this evening.

"Titanic" was the biggest hit, winning awards including Best Picture in a Drama Series, Best Actor in a Drama Series, Best Actress in a Drama Series, Best Supporting Actress, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Original Song, Eight nominations including Best Film Score.

The core production team of "Titanic", including Dunn, also made an appearance and became the most shining crew on the red carpet tonight.

Especially when Kate Winslet walked on the red carpet with Dunn Walker in one arm and Leonardo Ricaprio in the other, the fans burst into piercing screams, as if they could take the entire Beverly Hills All shook.

After an interview with ABC TV, I finally entered the venue.

The Golden Globe Awards ceremony took the form of a formal banquet, with the crew of "Titanic" sitting in the first row near the podium.

There is no doubt that they are the well-deserved protagonists tonight!

The Golden Globe Awards are awards for movies and TV. For the sake of ratings, they will be randomly awarded according to the requirements of the banquet director. The first award given out is the best actor in a musical with a lot of gold.

Jack Nicholson won the award for his performance in the movie "As Good as It Gets."

Then there were several TV awards, and then there was a very high-profile award - Best Actress in a Drama!

The crew of "Titanic" suddenly became nervous, especially Kate Winslet, who pursed her lips tightly and glanced at Dunn.

Her biggest rival is Judi Dench, the heroine of the movie "Mrs. Brown", an old woman.

"I have an intuition, you will definitely win!"

Leonardo winked, making Kate laugh.

Dunn chose silence.

He also believes that Kate Winslet is absolutely worthy of the award for Best Actress in a Drama Series.

If it is said that Helen Hunt's performance in "As Perfect" is unparalleled, and Kate is a little immature, then it makes sense. But "As Perfect" is competing for best actress in a musical or comedy, not Kate Winslet.

With Kate Winslet's performance in "Titanic", it can be described as stunning, especially the performance in the second half, which is perfect!

Brenda Bryce, the guest of honor and the winner of the last film, walked up to the stage, and under everyone's nervous eyes, she said in a cheerful voice: "The best actress in a drama is... Kate Winslet, Titanic!"

Immediately, applause broke out.

Everyone on the crew of "Titanic" stood up immediately and shared Kate Winslet's joy.

"thanks, thanks!"

Kate Winslet hugged everyone around, and the last one opened her arms to Dunn and hugged him tightly, "Thank you, Dunn, you are my best friend."

Tang En patted her back and said with a smile, "Okay, let's talk about the acceptance speech on stage!"

"Pfft!"

Kate Winslet was finally amused, gave him a big white eye, pursed her lips, and stepped onto the stage.

The first battle is won!

The crew of "Titanic" raised the glass and touched it once.

After another half an hour, Helen Hunt won the Best Actress in a Musical Drama category without any surprise.

There is no doubt that she will be Kate Winslet's biggest rival at the Oscars a month from now.

Subsequently, the best original song and the best soundtrack also belonged to "Titanic".

Not a false example!

From the beginning to the present, all the nominations for "Titanic" have won the final victory.

Until Leonardo Ricaprio competed for the best actor in the drama category, which made everyone sweat.

This award... I'm afraid it will be difficult.

Leonardo's performance in "Titanic" is very good, but the too simple character setting does not have much room for development, and his competitors are also very strong.

From Dunn's point of view, the best actor is likely to be Daniel Day-Lewis, the actor of "In the Name of Love".

When the results came out, the audience was surprised!

It turned out to be Peter Fonda, who had a low voice before.

Fortunately, the attendees were all the scene people, and they quickly merged into laughter and laughter, and did not embarrass Peter Fonda.

It may be due to bad luck. In the subsequent Best Supporting Actress competition, Gloria Stewart, who played the elderly "Ruth", also unfortunately lost, and played amazing Kim Basinger in "L.A. Confidential" Elected if you wish.

And the next best screenplay award, James Cameron also lost to Ben Affleck.

Three-game losing streak after three-game winning streak!

In the "Titanic" crew, everyone's faces were not right, a strange mood began to permeate, and everyone talked less with each other.

Until an award worthy of everyone's attention in the United States is about to be announced - the Best Director Award!

The big screen was first repeated by four outstanding directors nominated - Steven Spielberg, "The Rage of the Locks"; James Brooks, "As Perfect"; Curtis Henson, "L.A. Confidential" "; Dunn Walker Titanic".

"Don..."

Kate Winslet gave him a nervous look, just as nervous as when she was about to announce her award.

Tang En patted her hand, "It doesn't matter, I'm still young anyway, right?"

He is not yet twenty years old, and it is difficult for the Golden Globes to award such a major award to him.

"But...you did the best!" Kate lowered her voice, a little indignant.

Tang En smiled slightly, "It's enough to have your support, it's just the Golden Globe Award, I don't like it yet."

Kate Winslet pouted, a little unhappy, "But I'm looking forward to winning the award with you and Leon. If I win the award alone, it's weird...weird."

Tang En said with a smile, "You deserve it, you deserve it!"

At this time, the guest of honor appeared, it was the famous Hollywood director Milos Folkman.

He walked slowly, opened the envelope slowly, and under the confident attention of the audience, he raised his head, looked at the crew of "Titanic", and showed a smile.

Beside Tang En, one after another gasping voices could clearly be heard.

Is it...

"The best director was: Dunn Walker, "Titanic."

In the banquet hall, there was a little silence, and then the warmest applause broke out.

This is the most popular applause from the beginning to the end!

Dunn Walker, the youngest director of the Golden Globe Award in history, was born!

Kate Winslet fell into Dunn's arms like a little girl, with her pretty face close to his ear, and she kept jumping excitedly, "You did it! Dunn, you did it! I knew, you Alright, you must do it!"
