1197 Witness the moment
Under the guidance of the staff, Renly quickly arrived at a waiting room at the end of the corridor. The burgundy interior decorated with gold was in the same vein as this year's stage design; a huge display screen was placed in front of it. , opposite there is a camera with a red light on.
All the details speak to the why and the purpose, here's the waiting room for the nominees and award presenters.
At the award ceremony, in order to avoid accidents, the award guests and nominees often wait in advance. In order to produce behind-the-scenes and improve the party, the organizing committee opened a waiting room to record what happened behind the stage. tidbits, and can also handle some unexpected situations in a timely manner.
What follows is the so-called unexpected situation.
The penultimate award was the Best Actor Award. Renly, as the nominee and presenter, had no time to rush back to his seat at this time, so the live broadcast waiting room was the best choice. Renly could still be elegant and calm. appear on the camera and will not miss the critical moment when the awards are announced..
In fact, this year’s battle for the best actor lacks enough suspense and sparks..
The five nominees are: Daniel Day-Lewis for "Lincoln", Renly Hall for "Transcendence", Joaquin Phoenix for "The Master", and Bradley Kui for "Silver Linings Playbook". Pere, Hugh Jackman in "Les Misérables".
Jackman, the quality of his work and the depth of his performance have not reached a high enough level, so being nominated is a surprise; Bradley, his comedy performance is still not convincing, and the first nomination for an idol is more of an award; Renly, he just won the award last year Moreover, he is very young, and the overall momentum of his works has been submerged in the entire awards season, far from reaching the height of being re-elected..
In other words, from start to finish, awards season is Daniel Day-Lewis versus Joaquin Phoenix..
Interestingly, Daniel and Joaquin are both thorns. They rarely or refuse to participate in the college's public relations. At most, they only attend ceremonially. This also weakens the power of the public relations war to the greatest extent, and all the focus is focused on On top of the actor's personal strength and the overall evaluation of the work, it is a rare return to the essence of the award..
In the competition of works, "Master" is far less powerful than "Lincoln"; and in professional competition, Jacques also lags far behind Daniel.
Therefore, this year's awards ceremony has stripped away the suspense very early. Everyone is waiting for Daniel Day-Lewis to reach the top again. The entire awards season has witnessed Daniel's sweep of thousands of troops and his unparalleled success. Sprinting all the way towards the statuette, once he reaches the top again this year, Daniel will become the first actor in history to win the Oscar for three times..
This is history. Undoubted history.
Therefore, despite the lack of suspense, despite the lack of sparks, the organizing committee still placed the best actor in the finale - awarded before the best picture award, even behind the two more intense awards of best director and best actress. Award, because this will most likely be the moment Meryl Streep presents Daniel Day-Lewis with an award that will go down in history..
Standing in the live broadcast waiting room, Renly's mood was extremely calm, and even a little excited. It was indeed a wonderful thing to witness the birth of history with his own eyes..
On the stage, Meryl had finished her speech, and then introduced the video playback of the nominees, first Joaquin, then Bradley, then Daniel, then Jackman, and finally Blue. present.
The academy chose the last scene of "Transcendence". In the midst of desolate ruins, Henry recited Edgar Allan Poe's poems. The land was devastated and full of vicissitudes of life. Despair and pain surged up bit by bit. The poetic and song-like scenery Sadness is like a curl of mist lingering on the fingertips, and the world has fallen into a state of ruin..
When the video finished playing, as usual, the camera switched to Renly..
Renly stood elegantly and nodded politely towards the camera, but then, an incredible wave of applause erupted in the Dolby Theater, sweeping in and out, even mixed with whistles. And the cheers, the shouts are almost comparable to Daniel's.
Such an unexpected situation made Renly's eyes show a hint of surprise. He obviously did not expect such a warm response, but then he showed a bright smile gracefully, and slightly nodded his head in a gentlemanly manner, expressing his gratitude and respect..
The confident and calm response, but with a restrained low-key, is indeed like a spring breeze..
Then, the camera switched to Meryl again, and five split screens appeared on the big screen, broadcasting the reactions of the five candidates in real time. In the expectant gaze, Meryl opened the envelope and took out After receiving the card, an elusive smile appeared on his face. For a moment, it seemed to create suspense again, but it was pierced in the blink of an eye.——
“The winner of the 85th Academy Award for Best Actor is...Daniel Day-Lewis, 'Lincoln’.”
History is born again.
After witnessing the youngest Best Actor winner in film history last year, this year also witnessed the first actor to be crowned three times in film history. The history of the Oscars is moving forward step by step..
Renly immediately gave him warm applause and expressed his high respect.！
When people mention the greatest actors in film history, there will inevitably be endless debates. Everyone has their own choice, but there is no doubt that Daniel is definitely one of them. Three Oscar winner statuettes are the best praise, although in Europe He has never reached the top of the three major film festivals, but this still does not detract from Daniel's greatness..
Since he really entered the public eye with "My Beautiful Laundry" in 1985, Daniel has appeared in a total of fourteen works, an average of less than one work a year, but all of them are masterpieces, except for "Nine" in 2009. Beyond expectations, all other works have been well received, nominated for five Oscars, and won the Oscar for the third time tonight..
As far as Renly is concerned personally, the one that left the most profound impression was "There Will Be Blood", and the one with the most outstanding performance was "In the Name of the Father". Daniel dedicated his wonderful and shocking acting skills that transcended method and expressionism. An actor, his low production also gives each character his own soul, which is undoubtedly awe-inspiring.
Daniel deserves tonight's award..
Obviously, Renly was not the only one who had such an idea. All the audiences in the Dolby Theater stood up and applauded thunderously. The overwhelming sound continued for a long time, and the black and turbulent sound will award tonight's award. The climax of the ceremony was pushed to a whole new level.
No words, no whistles, no shouts, just applause, the simplest, most direct and most sincere applause, swirling around mightily, compared to a statue of a golden man, the silence at this moment is Applause is a more brilliant and important affirmation. This is the respect from all colleagues, which cannot be replaced or measured..
Under the scorching and boiling gaze, Daniel walked onto the stage calmly and calmly, and received his third Little Golden Man trophy from Meryl's hand..
Someone once discussed whether the acting awards from the three major European film festivals or the Oscars are more important. The final conclusion is that the latter.
reason？
Not because of the review system, but because of the focus of the entire platform.
Among the three major European film festivals, any work that enters the main competition list is the result of careful selection. Each work is bound to have something worthy of recognition, and the original intention of the film festival is to bring these outstanding artistic works By showing it to a larger audience, the jury’s attention will naturally be focused more on the work..
Unfortunately, there is only one highest award, which also makes there are not a few leftovers every year..
In order to make up for such a miss, the Director Award or Actor Award may be awarded to other outstanding works in the form of "compensation". Of course, this does not mean that the director or actor is not good enough, it just means that the film festival's jury is more focused on Judged on the overall height of the work.
Therefore, almost every year, on top of the awards at the three major European film festivals, the acting awards may be unpopular..
In the Oscars, the nomination stage has a clear division of labor. Actors can only vote for the acting department, and screenwriters can only vote for the script department. This is especially true for the major awards in the technical category, which means that each department itself comes from the professional field. Recognition, stripping away the comprehensive consideration of the work itself, and purely judging from the level of professional skills.
When entering the award voting stage, only different departments can cross-vote. However, most actors will avoid the relatively professional technical awards, lest they pretend to understand and make a joke..
Correspondingly, the final award of the four major Oscar acting awards also reflects the recognition of professional skills. Although upsets exist, they are still upsets based on strength..
From another perspective, it is precisely because of this voting system that the weight of the Best Picture has become even more prominent. It can be called the most important award in the entire Oscars..
Overall, even though the Oscars have now become an academy public relations game, its authority is still guaranteed, especially in each major. It still occupies a place in the industry, even in the acting department, compared to The three major European film festivals are even more important.
Of course, this is a matter of opinion. The acting awards at the three major European film festivals are still one of the highest-level awards in the industry..
Now, Daniel has officially been crowned Oscar winner for the third time, becoming the first actor to reach such a height in the long 85-year history. This makes people think of Katharine Hepburn, who has been crowned Best Actress four times. Tonight, They witnessed the birth of history and became witnesses and participants of history. This feeling is really indescribable..
