Chapter 573： Annie, I love you!

"The truck driver is helping Michael Moore hide in the back of his limousine."

After the host Billy Christo stepped onto the stage, he used jokes to play down the obvious radical remarks just now.

Probably the organizer is aware of the problems faced by this Oscar and deliberately put the best actor and actress award in the middle. After last year, the best actor once again appeared in front of the best actress.

Because of the absence of Charlize Theron, the best actor's awarding guest was replaced by legendary superstar Barbra Streisand.

Ryan has also paid enough attention to this award. The one who won the award in the previous life is still struggling in the corner of Hollywood now. Whose head will this award fall on in this life? Did Leonardo DiCaprio, who was nominated, still refuse to invite the academy?

"Leonardo DiCaprio "The Gangs of New York", Nicholas Cage "Adapted Screenplay", Michael Cain "The Quiet American", Jack Nicholson "About Schmidt"..."

"The best actor tonight is..." Barbra Streisand opened the envelope and read the answer directly, "Michael Cain "The Quiet American."

The veteran actor from the UK became the final winner. The former Oscar winner for best supporting actor finally stood on the highest podium.

Looking at the gray-haired old actor, Ryan applauded, but another thought came into his mind. Last year’s Oscars played down the political influence to a certain extent. This year, it seems that we must maintain sufficient political correctness?

Britain is a die-hard ally of the United States. If uniting the British is a must now, what about the Australians?

If you think about it from the other side of the ocean, Australia is the **** brother of the United States.

As in the past, films and characters will never be the only factors for winning, there are so many things that can affect Oscars.

Although the theme of the party is ‘appropriately reflecting reality’, and relevant adjustments are made according to the situation, although the black evening dresses of many stars have also set a solemn tone for the party. But when the pregnant Zeta Jones came to the stage to sing with her big belly, when the ruffian Eminem was talking and singing, and when scenes of bizarre images appeared on the stage again, Hollywood was still that Hollywood.

Glamorous and drunken gold fans will always be an indispensable part of this circle.

Two years ago, Ang Lee won the best foreign language film Oscar with the Chinese martial arts film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", gained countless prestige and money, and inspired the lingering Oscar plot of the opposite directors.

Therefore, another director also appeared at this Oscar with a super martial arts production, wanting to shop for the best foreign language film.

The publisher of "Hero" is Miramax. If Harvey Weinstein or Ryanken put all their efforts into public relations, this movie is not without hope of winning.

But neither of them did so. Ryan's resources are fully tilted towards Nicole. If he wants to get one of the best male and female protagonists three times in a row, how can it be possible without full public relations?

As for Harvey Weinstein, he almost put all his energy on "Chicago" and "New York Gangs", and "Hero" is still some time before it will be released in North America. How can he promote it?

Although the other party did some work after coming to North America. But without the support of outsiders, wanting to make a difference at the Oscars is destined to be just a dream.

Penelope Cruz appeared on the stage as a guest of honor. "The following films: "The Sins of Father Amaro", "Where is My Home", "A Man Without a Past", "Heroes", and "Big Men When Married" were nominated for this year's best foreign film.

"These are all excellent movies. Unfortunately, there can only be one winner." She looked down, "Where is My Home". Congratulations Caroline Link!"

A German film took away this year's Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film.

This is no accident. Several old members of the college mentioned it at a party held by Nicole last Christmas. Compared with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Hero" is for Easterners, while the former is for Westerners.

Others may not know, but Ryan, the investor, knows that when Li Ang adapted the script of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", he first completed it in English and then translated it into Chinese. As for many expressions and details, they were all for the sake of Cater to the tastes of Americans.

After Billy Christo made a few more jokes, last year's best actor winner Russell Crowe stepped onto the stage, and he will be awarded the best actress.

Ryan's brows frowned slightly. If she had never won the Oscar for Best Actress, Nicole would have won the award almost logically, but only once a few years ago, which reduced the possibility of winning, Julian Moore and Rui Ni Zellweger is a rival.

Russell Crowe on stage introduced the nomination list in conjunction with the pictures on the big screen, "Salma Hayek "Frida", Diane Lynn "Infidelity", Nicole Kidd Mann's "All the Time", Julian Moore's "Far From Heaven", Renee Zellweger "Chicago"."

At the critical moment when deciding whether to win or not, Nicole's eyes suddenly left the stage and accurately found where Ryan was. The moment she looked over, Ryan's eyes also turned around, and the two smiled at the same time. , And then separated again with peace of mind.

"Are you nervous?" Antonia Kidman asked in a low voice.

Nicole shook her head slightly. This is not a few years ago. After experiencing so much in the past few years, even if she has any thoughts, she can perfectly control her emotions.

Who will win the final prize? Ryan swept across the face of Russell Crowe, who had bowed his head. The other party was an important member of the Australian gang, and there was a slight smile on his lips.

"Nicole Kidman, "The Moment", congratulations Nicole!"

The fake nose was not in vain, and the resources invested were not in vain. Nicole ushered in the second Oscar queen in her life.

After clapping his hands vigorously, Ryan stood up first, and everyone around him stood up. Then, with him as the center point, all the theater stood up and applauded, looking at the whiter and more white new movie queen set off by the black dress.

Nicole hugs her sister, hugs the rest of the crew, and then takes a look here, walks onto the stage, and takes over the best actress, Golden Man from Russell Crowe.

"Thank you academy! Thank you all the Oscar judges!"

She stood in front of the microphone. Although she looked very happy, she was not too excited. "Thank you very much. I do have something to say, Russell. I am so happy to hear you! Thank you very much for reading mine. first name."

"Thanks to Director Stephen Dardley, thank you Drew Barrymore, you are all the best partners, I thank you so much."

"I have a lot to say! Thank you to all the staff of Flower Pictures and Jenkins Pictures. It is your collective efforts that made my success this time. Thank you Ryan, who has firmly supported me over the years. Li and Scott Swift."

She paused, seeming to be organizing language.

"I'm so excited to be standing here tonight. What I have to say is, when a world is in turmoil, why do you come to the Oscar awards site? Because of the importance of art! Because we firmly believe in our own business! We must stick to our responsibilities! This tradition must be carried forward!"

"At the same time, there are indeed many problems in the world. After 9/11, many families have experienced the pain of bereavement, and now there is war again, and many families will lose their loved ones. God bless them!"

"Finally, my sister Antonia was sitting over there..."

She looked at Antonia Kidman, "She has given me too much support over the years, Annie, I love you!"

Warm applause broke out in the theater again, and Nicole, who was standing in the best actress Oscar position for the second time, turned into the backstage.

"You became a winner again."

When sitting back in the chair, Ryan heard Peter Jackson's low questioning voice, "Is there any trick, Ryan?"

"Do all the work that should be done."

This kind of occasion is not a place to exchange public relations experience, Ryan just casually replied.

Although Nicole was able to win the award, it was the result of a combination of many factors, but she finally got the second best actress in the golden man. Anyway, Ryan thinks that at this point, she completely surpassed her. Past life.

Of course, when it comes to her status and achievements in Hollywood, she has already thrown away even Nicole Kidman from the peak of her previous life.

When I turned my head to look at the crew of "The Moment", I saw Nicole and Antonia Kidman whispering, and Ryan turned his gaze back to the stage.

Without "The Pianist", will Oscar choose Martin Scorsese? Although the other party’s style is really not popular with the mainstreamThe winner of the best director is..."

After a few words that the Iraq War was not so bad, Harrison Ford finally opened the envelope, "Rob Marshall, "Chicago."

The Kodak Theater was strangely quiet for half a second, and then there was enthusiastic applause. Some people looked at the lucky Rob Marshall, but more people looked at Martin Scorsese, the famous The director's face is hard to say.

Regardless of the quality of the film, on various factors such as seniority and prestige, Martin Scorsese has completely exploded Rob Marshall, but the best director has fallen to his home.

Ryan's gaze crossed Rob Marshall and directly found Harvey Weinstein, this fat guy did have a lot of experience in public relations, and Rob Marshall was able to win the prize, so he must have spent a lot of effort.

This is destined to belong to an Oscar of "Chicago". After getting the best director, Kirk Douglas and Michael Douglas, who jointly presented the awards, handed over the best film to this film. (To be continued...) ()
