1806 Calm and atmospheric
The most interesting thing about the Academy’s public relations during the Oscars season is that no one can predict the outcome before reaching the finish line, not even the Weinstein brothers, because people’s hearts are the most difficult problem to calculate, not to mention that the Academy has more than six What about the huge team of thousands of judges? The Eight Immortals of major film companies cross the sea and show their magical powers, but they can only do their best and obey fate..
Among the four major awards in the acting department this year, the most suspenseful one is the Best Supporting Actress Award..
Unlike the other three categories, which all have frontrunners, the Best Supporting Actress category is a complete melee: Jennifer Lawrence, who had the advantage in the first stage of the awards season, was overtaken by Lupita Nyong'o in the second stage. , after the Screen Actors Guild Awards were upset, all situations were completely disrupted; Rooney Mara, who was firmly ranked as the third alternate, has always remained competitive and has not completely fallen behind. This is also a good example for the award ceremony. Reveal adds more uncertainty.
For "12 Years a Slave" and "Gravity", both works can make an impact in the best actor department; but for "American Hustle", best supporting actress is the core that cannot be missed Fortress, despite winning nominations in both Best Actor and Best Actress categories, their only advantage was Best Supporting Actress.
After missing out on Best Costume Design and Best Art Direction, "American Hustle" cannot afford to miss out on Best Supporting Actress, otherwise it will basically be out of the race for Best Picture..
Similarly, "12 Years a Slave" has been empty-handed so far. Best Supporting Actress is the most impactful department of the crew in addition to Best Adapted Screenplay. When the "race card" has fully taken advantage of it, if there is no If they can achieve a breakthrough in Best Supporting Actress, their hopes of winning Best Picture will also be greatly reduced..
On the other hand, the "gravity" that swept across the technical department is much less stressed now. They can sit back and watch the tigers fight. They can still maintain their advantage regardless of victory or defeat, and maybe they can wait until the "snipe and clam fight against each other" to win. "profit" opportunity, then the entire award ceremony pattern will be reshuffled..
So, who will win the Best Supporting Actress award?？
Christoph Waltz, the last Best Supporting Actor winner, appeared on the stage and introduced the five nominees to the audience..
Highlights of the nominees were being played on the big screen. Renly, who was sitting in the audience, couldn't help but feel slightly tense. He didn't even have time to distinguish the details of this emotion, so he just turned his head subconsciously—— But he had no idea what he was searching for. When his eyes fell on Rooney, everything became logical..
Tonight, Rooney and Renly came to attend the awards ceremony respectively.
This is not the first time for either of them; at the same time, both of them take awards relatively lightly, and neither of them is the biggest favorite in their respective departments, which means that they can relax and enjoy this colorful event. night, just like attending a real party.
After arriving at the Dolby Theater, both of them had their own circle of friends and enjoyed the atmosphere contentedly. As people came and went, the two of them did not get a chance to speak alone. They just met on the set of "Gravity" At that time, a look was exchanged in the crowd, and that was all.
The star-studded spot in the center was occupied by "American Hustle", while "Gravity" was placed in a spot on the right side of the second row in the central area. Rooney was sitting diagonally behind Renly on the right side, separated by About five seats.
At this time, Renly turned his head, and Rooney also cast his gaze knowingly. The two people's eyes met in the air..
Renly suddenly realized that he didn't seem so nervous when he was competing for awards, but at this moment, the tense emotion made his heart curl up, and he suddenly became restless..
Rooney noticed the tension deep in Renly's eyes, and was slightly stunned. Then she understood the ins and outs of it, and a bright smile bloomed on her solemn and cold face, like an epiphyllum that bloomed proudly at twelve o'clock in the middle of the night. The brilliance that burst out instantly eclipsed the bright moonlight..
“You're actually nervous.”
Although she didn't speak, Rooney's eyes revealed a hint of playfulness, and the smile on her lips flashed faintly, finally outlining a touch of pride. It is conceivable that after the award ceremony, Rooney will definitely laugh at Ren Li. Extra: The invincible Renly actually has tense moments.
This hint of cunning made the tension in Renly's eyes slowly dissipate. He also realized that in fact, Rooney was not nervous at all..
I still remember that year, when Rooney entered the public eye with "The Social Network", she also attended the Oscars, but the atmosphere of the award ceremony made her breathless. The glitz and noise of Vanity Fair was like an invisible cage, and she was helpless. Everywhere, she couldn't wait to escape Hollywood and Los Angeles, and found a piece of peace in Seattle..
Renly still remembers the dazzling and flamboyant red dress that night. It was as charming as the poppies in full bloom on the ground, but it also revealed a hint of loneliness and loneliness..
Later, Rooney won her first Oscar nomination for "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", but she gradually calmed down and participated in this annual event with a calmer and more calm attitude; tonight, Rooney won the Oscar for the second time Nominated, she became more and more relaxed. On the road of acting, she gradually found her own place..
She can do well even without Renly's support.
But Rooney still mouthed, "Thank you." Then she tilted her head slightly to the side, inadvertently revealing a little bit of the laziness and comfort of a little woman..
Renly looked away.
Rooney also withdrew her gaze.
The eye contact was just a glance back for a moment, and no one noticed it at all. Among the bustling guests and the tense atmosphere of the award ceremony, they exchanged their own little secrets, and the sweetness and happiness came like this little by little. There were ripples on the ground. It was not a storm, but it was deeply engraved. The corner of the mouth could not help but raise a similar arc..
“‘Gravity', Rooney Mara.”
At this time, Christopher's introduction happened to be Rooney's turn, and the big screen switched to a close-up of Rooney's lens. Then Rooney's smiling face came into the audience's field of vision, showing her generous and relaxed posture. Showing a rare calm atmosphere, the moment of brilliance attracted countless eyes.
In such a grand occasion, every nominee is trying hard to maintain a calm and elegant manner and avoid revealing his nervousness and panic in the live broadcast camera. After all, this may become the highlight moment of his career, and no one can completely I don’t care at all, otherwise I’ll be like Woody Allen and miss the awards ceremony..
But even so, the difference in details still reveals the true emotions in the heart.
Compared with the other four candidates, Rooney is the one who is completely relaxed. Not to mention Lupita, who can barely smile and whose shoulders are completely stiff, even the experienced Julia seems slightly Somewhat anxious, Jennifer also held her breath for a moment - both for the work and the actors, the significance of this award is far beyond imagination..
Christopher also seemed to be aware of this. When the short film of the nominees was played, he still crossed his hands in front of him and made no further movements. He was stunned for a moment before reacting, "Oh, sorry, I was trying to remember last year's announcement. How I felt when I won the award, but my mind went blank. Obviously, I was too nervous to think - of course, it might also be because I drank too much whiskey.，”
At such a tense moment, Christopher still made a small joke, but there were only sparse chuckles. It could be noticed that everyone was too nervous to relax. Dolby The air inside the theater is almost condensing..
Christopher didn't show any signs of panic. He spread his hands and said helplessly, "Under normal circumstances, the joke just now can always arouse some reactions, but it seems that everyone's attention is here." He also shook his head. Shaking the winner list envelope in his hand, he matched his words.
This time, he successfully won the laughter of the audience.
Harvey Weinstein is still looking serious and frowning at this time, because he knows better than anyone else what the Best Supporting Actress Award means. It is not just the prospect of "American Hustle", but also Jennifer's future prospects - If he is going to confront Renly, Harvey needs a good actor who can compete with him, and who better than Jennifer?？
Harvey moved his hips anxiously and pulled on his tie unconsciously. If Christopher didn't announce the winning result, he might rush forward and tear open the envelope..
But after enduring and enduring, Harvey successfully suppressed his emotions, sat down again, straightened his back slightly, and once again showed the style and posture of a top Hollywood boss; however, his eyes remained motionless. Aiming at Christopher, no sign of trouble could escape his eyes.
Standing on the stage, Christopher could clearly feel the almost suffocating tension of the scene. He did not continue to joke, "The winner of the 86th Oscar for Best Supporting Actress is..." After he finished speaking, Christopher opened the envelope without pausing, quickly pulled out the card, and glanced down at.
The whole movement was done in one go, in sharp contrast to the previous procrastination, and the tense atmosphere was pushed to the extreme in an instant. Even the sound of breathing could hardly be heard. It seemed that all eyes were on the card in Christopher's hand. , and then he announced the winning result simply and neatly——
Is it Jennifer Lawrence or Lupita Nyong'o?？
