Chapter 1016： Oscar night

Penelope Cruz took Dunn's arm and appeared on the Oscars red carpet.

Although she was not nominated, she is the presenter of this year's Oscars, when she will present the best sound editing award.

When he came to the backstage, Dunn saw the white-bearded old man George Lucas at a glance, and went up to say hello with a smile, "George, I can't wait!"

George Lucas turned his head to give him a cold look, "Then I told you to come over, aren't you still pushing back?"

Dunn was quite ashamed.

"Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith" is about to be released, this will be the last part of the "Star Wars Episode 3" trilogy, and it will also be George Lucas' personal closing work!

For this film, George Lucas exhausted his efforts, many scenes were shot in front, and they had to be reshot after a while.

After several years of tossing, it was finally finalized.

Last month, Lucasfilm held a film viewing party, and invited many well-known filmmakers in the industry to visit and give some valuable suggestions for improvement.

Dunn was not present.

"Ahem, it's not like you don't know. During this period of time, I'm going crazy." Tang En shyly confessed, "But I have an intuition that this movie will definitely sell well!"

George Lucas said angrily: "It stands to reason that with Natalie, the Oscar-winning actress, as the leading actress, it is no problem to sell well. But what have you done? After the actress, she went to study in Jerusalem. That's all for reading, but she doesn't make movies! It's okay not to make movies, and she keeps a low profile as if this person has disappeared."

Tang En said with a guilty conscience, "Didn't she want to study with peace of mind?"

George Lucas said firmly: "It's good to read with peace of mind, but who will be responsible for the box office of "Star Wars"?"

No matter her past life or this life, Natalie is the biggest actor in "Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith". Many times, she is responsible for the box office.

However, Natalie has been so low-key in the two years she has been studying, that the entire United States seems to have forgotten about this person. Without traffic and exposure, how can it still have box office appeal?

George Lucas originally thought that with the aura of Natalie's Oscar-winning actress, he could really contribute to the box office of "Star Wars: Episode 3".

As a result, I went to study in Jerusalem!

Well done Dunn!

Tang En said in embarrassment: "George, you must also be considerate of my difficulties. The whole world knows that she is Tang En's girlfriend. Her words and deeds often represent my decency."

George Lucas sighed, also knowing that the face of the richest man in the world is very important, shook his head and said, "If the box office of this movie can exceed 1 billion US dollars... I can wake up laughing in my dreams!"

$1 billion box office?

"Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith"?

Disaster!

In its previous life, the film made $848 million at the box office.

In this life, there will also be Marvel's masterpiece "Iron Man" released in the same period.

For such a veteran director, $1 billion at the box office...is really out of reach.

Speaking of veteran directors, just as the two walked into the corner of the backstage lounge, they happened to meet another veteran director - Francis Coppola.

"Dawn, I think you can win this time!" Francis Coppola waved at him from a distance.

"Award? I really can't guess whether I will win." Dunn shook his head, looked at him deeply, and glanced at George Lucas next to him, if he understood, "I saw you all showing up. , I can guess who the best director is."

George Lucas hit haha, "Go, go inside and talk."

The Oscars are held at the Kodak Theater.

However, from the red carpet to the opening, there is still 1 hour.

Many small roles and actors can only wait obediently.

Seniors like George Lucas and Francis Coppola are eligible to enter the backstage lounge, and wait until the ceremony begins to reappear. Although Dunn is young, his qualifications are too good.

Dunn ignored it, pressing his voice and said, "If I'm not mistaken, is Spielberg also with you?"

George Lucas widened his eyes, quite surprised, "Did someone tell you?"

Tang En said amusingly: "This is already too obvious! The four major Hollywood directors in the 1980s, and He He Man gathered together, is obviously a hype stunt."

Unsurprisingly, the presenters for the best director this time will be Francis Coppola, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg at the same time!

An award-winning director who can get so much respect and a grand treatment... To be honest, Tang En doesn't have this qualification!

Only Martin Scorsese!

In the previous life, in 2005, this year's Oscar for best director was given to Clint Eastwood, the presenter...it was just the actress Julia Roberts.

The current big scene has already explained the problem.

The award ceremony has not yet begun, and Tang En's heart has already fallen halfway.

The best director award has arrived.

Martin Scorsese, the golden man who will win the Oscar for best director for the first time in his life!

However, this is a secret topic after all, Francis Coppola and George Lucas did not talk much, revealing the bottom to Oscar, which is not good for anyone.

A lot of times, the Oscars represent the decency of Hollywood.

For the sake of this face, the filmmakers have to take their cues.

The backstage of the Oscars is like a museum, with a lot of historical photos on display, most of them are actors, and most of them are stills.

Among them, Tang En saw Miss Zhang at a glance.

This is her appearance of "Jade Dragon" in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which looks particularly fresh.

Francis Coppola saw Dunn's slightly hesitant action, and smiled: "Chinese? Haha, Sophia also told me that there are many movie geniuses in the Chinese-speaking circle."

Sofia Coppola?

Well, she must be talking about Wang Jiawei.

...

The Oscar ceremony has finally begun.

In order to increase the ratings, the organizing committee specially invited the black comedian Chris Rock.

Dunn has no interest in this guy's jokes.

Instead, he was secretly analyzing the Oscar strategy this time, wondering how many awards "The Departed" could win The best director did not run away.

The presenters have been exposed.

Best Actor?

It was Dunn himself who was nominated.

It's hard to say.

The Best Supporting Actor nominee is Mark Wahlberg, who doesn't look like an award-winning guy either. It's Cate Blanchett's Best Supporting Actress.

Those other miscellaneous awards are not worth caring about.

The award ceremony soon entered the topic. First, Harry Berry presented the Best Art Direction Award, and "The Departed" made a good start!

Two designers, Dante Ferretti and Francesca Chavo, took the stage to accept the award.

Tonight's Oscar, for the first time, the melody of "The Departed" fluttered!

In order to guarantee the ratings, the Oscars can not always arrange a no-name award.

The second award is a very heavy award - Best Supporting Actress!

Renee Zellweger appeared on the stage as a guest of honor, and Dunn could even feel the sudden tension of the "Departed" crew.

Compared with the best art direction, the best supporting actress is the award that everyone values ​​more!

Can Cate Blanchett win the Oscar for the first time in her life?

She is another representative of Australian actresses after Nicole Kidman!

Until Renee Zellweger finally opened the envelope—

"The winner is..."

She paused for a moment, then showed a formulaic bright smile, her eyes accurately found the "The Departed" crew again, and the tone was a little higher-

"Cate Blanchett, The Departed!"

boom!

The Kodak Theater, ushered in the first climax of the night.
