323 a blessing in disguise
Nathan entered the room quietly and looked at Renly who was sleeping soundly. Renly didn't come back until four in the morning from the Golden Globes celebration party last night. It was only ten in the morning now, so Renly was naturally still in a coma. He fell into a deep sleep; however, Andy was sitting in the hall at this time, demanding that Renly be woken up, so what should he do?？
Nathan stood there, a little embarrassed, neither advancing nor retreating, and then a hoarse low voice came from the bed, "What's the matter?" There was a deep sleepiness with a hint of nasal sound, lazy and tired..
Nathan was startled and said quickly, "Andy is here. He said he wants to see you if there is something urgent..”
Silence, total silence, Nathan couldn't help but hold his breath. Just when he thought Renly had fallen asleep again, the voice came again, "Give me ten minutes, I'll wash up and come out.".”
Upon hearing this, Nathan took a long breath and said quickly, "Okay." Then he quietly pushed out of the room again..
Renly likes to sleep in, and is even keen on sleeping in, not only because he never really slept in well in his previous life, he was restricted to a certain set of rules every day, and his sleeping time every day was as precise as a stopwatch; after that, he continued to sleep in every day for ten years. Lying on the hospital bed, but every night I feel uneasy.
It’s also because the ubiquitous restraints in this life are almost suffocating. The life of aristocrats is not as free and casual as shown on TV. In fact, aristocrats have strict rules on the time they get up and go to bed, three meals, and afternoon tea every day. Strict rules. If a certain baron sleeps in for two consecutive days and misses breakfast, this will inevitably become a topic of teasing and teasing in the aristocratic circle..
Renly knew that sleeping in was not a good habit, especially for a person who was unswervingly on the road to realizing his dreams. But Renly did not want to repeat the mistakes of his previous life: putting all his efforts and giving up himself for a goal. life, even giving up oneself. Dreams are very important, but after all, dreams are only a part of life, not all of it..
Now, since Nathan had woken him up, it was time to get up. After three minutes of being in bed, Renly sat up straight and walked towards the bathroom with his eyes closed..
Ten minutes later, a refreshed Renly appeared in the hall. He looked at Andy sitting on the sofa in the living room and said with a smile, "I thought today was a holiday..”
“This is Hollywood, every day can be a holiday, but every day can also be a working day." Andy replied with a smile. Renly sat down on the sofa next to him and looked at the coffee table full of newspapers and magazines. It was all about last night’s Golden Globe Awards, “Did Tom hug you after last night’s ceremony? And comforted you？”
Renly scanned the headlines of the newspaper at random. They were basically all "Social Networks", the biggest winner last night. He also saw a photo of Ricky Gervais, with a huge "Screwed Up" on the headline. You can clearly feel the attitude of the media, "Tom? What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"？”
In fact, Renly also vaguely felt that there was something in Tom's words last night, but he was worried that he was thinking too much. Growing up in a noble family environment, he was a bit like a warrior, and any sentence could be interpreted into countless possibilities..
“No, there's nothing wrong." Andy's eyes showed a trace of satisfaction, "It's just that rumors say that Tom was very dissatisfied with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, got angry, and even cursed when the results of the awards were announced. Now, Tom and Steven Spread the word, they think your performance deserves an Oscar nomination.”
After thinking for a while, Renly came to understand. To put it simply, the "Pacific War" was unexpectedly defeated, and now Tom and the others plan to rely on Renly to regain their position..
Imagine that the Emmys awarded the award to Renly for "The Pacific", but then the Golden Globes refuted the award, ignoring the entire series of "The Pacific" and Renly as the leading actor. , if Renly receives an Oscar nomination for his wonderful performance in "Buried Alive", then whose face is this slap in the face?？
The awards season is actually a process of public relations game. Nominations depend on strength, and winning awards depends on luck..
During the nomination stage, absolute strength is what everyone is after. Any actor who can receive an Oscar nomination is worthy of recognition for his strength - at least in the works of that year; and after receiving the nomination, sympathy votes and merit votes , ethnic minority votes, bitterness votes, etc. will all appear on stage, just to successfully cross the line first in this competition and win the statuette..
Now, the Golden Globe Awards directly ignore "Pacific War". This is not just an award. It can also be seen that in this public relations war, Renly has gradually fallen behind. Compared with "127 Hours", " "Buried Alive" itself has inherent shortcomings, and Focus Features is unable to defeat four hands with two fists. Deus Ex is definitely not a goal that can be achieved by just talking..
In other words, the Golden Globe Awards are no longer optimistic about Renly's ability to sprint for the Oscar nomination stage. This is a denial of Renly's absolute strength..
Originally, it was a bad thing to return empty-handed at the Golden Globe Award. This seemed to indicate that in the face of the strong momentum of "127 Hours", "Buried Alive" was losing ground, and James Franco was likely to win the championship. Like West Eisenberg, he relied on the overall strength of his work to defeat his direct competitor Renly and had the last laugh in the nomination stage..
But now, Tom and Steven are ready to take action. Is this a blessing in disguise?？
However, even so, "127 Hours" still has obvious advantages. The degree of completion of the work is much higher than that of "Buried Alive". Academy public relations during the awards season are changing rapidly. No one knows how things will turn out until the last step. Even if Now that Natalie Portman has a clear advantage, the double door is still like a time bomb. No one can be sure when it will explode..
In fact, Renly himself was not too eager..
“"Buried Alive" is only his first big-screen work. He knows that he still has many shortcomings, and he is just getting started. This is not a modest word, but a fact..
On the road of exploring acting skills, he is just a newborn baby. He has appeared in two works, has a little bit of experience, and has gained some recognition. He is far from getting carried away. He can only correct his mentality and polish himself in a down-to-earth manner. , step by step, he can become an actor, a real actor.
“"Buried Alive" won a Golden Globe nomination, which he felt was an unexpected surprise. Thinking about it, a year ago, he was just an unknown person who was looking for acting opportunities tirelessly. The progress he has made now is commendable..
As for the Oscar nomination, he does not ask for it. Even if he misses this time, he will still have it next year and the year after that. He believes that as long as the strength is there, everything will fall into place. What belongs to him is his, and no one can take it away; what does not belong to him , you can’t force it. As for whether you can win the prize, it really depends on your luck..
From the Emmy Award to the Golden Globe Award, in just half a year, he once again completed his transformation.
Looking at Renly's indifferent expression, Andy gently rubbed his temples, and a wry smile appeared on his face. He knew that Renly didn't take it seriously, but as an agent, he had to work hard. "Considering this, Under special circumstances, I helped you finalize your first TV show interview. I hope you will be on the show to talk about your feelings at the Golden Globe Awards last night, and then talk about your experience filming "Buried Alive".”
After Renly missed the award yesterday, Andy had a phone call with the public relations department of Focus Features, hoping to come up with an effective plan to make the final sprint before the Oscar nomination list came out. Unexpectedly, Doze With the pillow, he naturally wouldn't miss it easily and immediately finalized the TV interview.
This will be Renly's first ever television interview.
“What about Sundance? "This was Renly's first reaction..
“The post-production of "Crazy Love" has been completed, and it is confirmed that it will be launched at this year's Sundance Film Festival, which will officially open next week. For this world's largest independent film festival, Renly has been gearing up for a long time..
“Don't worry, I won't miss it." Andy laughed dumbly. The Oscar was not as good as Sundance. Others would have dislocated their jaws when they heard it. But Andy knew Renly. He knew Renly's passion for acting and for The passion for movies cannot be compared to a mere award. Not even the Little Golden Man..
“Due to time constraints, you will go to the recording of the program this afternoon and accept exclusive interviews with the two media tomorrow. This is enough." Andy simply concluded that although he was eager, he should not be too ostentatious, otherwise it would be too embarrassing. It's ugly, too much is not enough..
Renly nodded in understanding..
“You can read the newspaper first. Last night's awards ceremony was extremely lively, with so many breaking news that the media was overwhelmed." Andy relaxed a little and joked with a smile..
After waiting for a moment, he found that Renly didn't look curious at all. Nathan, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but said, "'Fashion' magazine selected the top ten shining moments on the red carpet, and you won the first place..”
Renly raised his eyebrows in surprise. It was extremely difficult to occupy a place on the red carpet of the Golden Globe Awards. Why didn't he remember his outstanding performance yesterday?.
Andy originally planned to show off, but he didn't expect to be outdone by Nathan. He didn't care and smiled, "Who knew, George Wilkes actually did it?".”
When Renly finally made the decision to choose George's design, Andy was very worried. Because Renly's own reputation and recognition are not very high, choosing a top brand is a bonus option, and choosing an unknown designer It was extremely risky, but in the end Andy chose to believe in Renly.
Unexpectedly, the effect was so good. First, some media complained about Renly's failure to win the Best Actor in the Miniseries and TV Movie categories. Then, a fashion magazine paid attention to Renly's shining moment - it was still uniquely "fashionable" Magazine, last night's Golden Globe Awards, Renly can be said to have gained a lot..
“Eaton was protesting with a sad look on his face." Renly's teasing made both Nathan and Andy laugh heartily..
