Vol 3 Chapter 51: Best Actress

In the sound of music, host Ubi Goldberg came to the front desk, and the 71st Academy Awards ceremony officially began.
But I do n’t know what Ubi thinks, maybe it ’s a lot of comedy. In short, wearing maid costumes with green spots and black and white spots at the same time, also wearing an apron, and that weird hairstyle is really
amazing
.
"I wonder if she thinks she's doing a movie? It's a far cry from the host style of 1993."
Angela whispered to Kevin Spacey, who was sitting on his left while applauding.
The crew of "American Beauty" sat in the fourth, fifth, and sixth rows to the right of the venue. Among the actors, in addition to the protagonists Kevin and Annette and Chris, three young actors Wes, Mina and Sarah also All came to the ceremony, of course, it was completely accidental that Mina and Sara's seats would be close together.
"Never compromise" crew and "The Matrix" crew are next to them, after all, these three films are produced by Pixar.
The advantage is that it would be convenient to say hello to Soderbergh Ridley and aunt.
"Maybe she just wants to change the style of hosting," Kevin shrugged, touching his nose. "But intuitively, I think Ubi is going to get worse next time."
"Then, may God bless her."
Angela doesn't care if she raises her lips.
Unfortunately, the following developments are in the words of Spencer.
Frankly speaking, Ubi is still sharp-spoken, and makes the audience laugh from time to time, especially this year's host of the best movie clips can be described as jokes, such as: Albert on the screen? Finney asked with a look of surprise: "Why do you think you can walk in and do whatever you want?" The camera turned around, wearing a much larger dress like Julia but with a much bigger Ubi, she used her chest quite a bit. He said helplessly, "Because my big Mimi is too big."
When Spikey was crying out on the bed, the camera turned around and the whole person was covered in rose petals. Only his head was thrown out as if he was paddling out, and he asked: " Is it enough? Is it enough? "These clips are so irritating that the audience ca n’t help but Angela secretly teased Spicey:" If that's really your fantasy, it is definitely a downright tragedy. "
"Unfortunately, that is Leicester's fantasy, not mine, so even tragedy is Leicester's tragedy, but don't connect with me."
Spissy didn't care, and laughed and coaxed the audience.
Ubi is really good at adjusting the atmosphere, but what makes people chill or "thunder" is that she will go to the backstage to change her clothes after almost every award is awarded. Not coming out, some clothes are simply challenging the imagination of the person, plus she also wears some strange makeup on the face in conjunction with the clothes. Go, get more and more. "I don't know if she sees this as a Broadway stage or a circus in Las Vegas." She said politely to Spiro on the other side. The newspaper will be ridiculed. "" Maybe this is the effect that Ubi wants. "Sparrow replied with a smile. As in the previous process, the best supporting actor was initially awarded, which was unexpected. It was Albert who played the old lawyer in & gt; Finney accidentally got this little golden man. "It's a great honor to get the best supporting actor, I think I want to thank and thank first" for holding the little golden man Albert was a little speechless with excitement, no wonder, played four Movies nominated for best actor four years but found nothing, even though he could not see the opening of said multi-name can not give you anything, but really won a prize - even if only for Best Supporting Actor - still inevitably excited.
Angela was a little surprised at this time, and some things were unexpected. In her opinion, Albert was not particularly outstanding among several nominated actors, and he could only say that he could get the best supporting actor. Luck.
But this is also good, it is affirmation of the old Finney for so many years, so Angela did not applaud.
This year's Oscar should be considered a more wonderful one. The reason is naturally that Pixar has nominated three movies and no more than a total of 17 project nominations. This is the first time in Oscar's history.
"Matrix" does not need to say that all four are technical, and Spielberg's "Saving Soldier Ryan" also has these four nominations. The two films are indiscriminate in this regard, so in the end Two for each-"Saving Soldier Ryan" got the best sound and best sound effects, and "The Matrix" got the best editing and best visuals.
Although Angela is a bit reconciled, it is already good to think about winning two awards from the movie "Saving Soldier Ryan"-if not for the Matrix, the four awards will definitely be captured by the other party.
The "American Beauty" and "Never Compromise" are very fun, with a bit of canine teeth.
First of all, these two films were produced by Pixar and both were nominated for the best film. It was a funny thing for the film company and its own stand.
"You asked us to report both films for the best film, and now both have been nominated. The public relations department has called several times to ask me which ticket I want to vote for!" After the nomination list came out, Ed was no shortage. Complained on the phone.
"Well ... you take care of it."
Angela can only vaguely answer. After all, the palms and hands are all meat, although from the bottom of her heart, she still hopes that "American Beauty" will get the best film.
Well, this is just one aspect. Don't forget, these two films are not only the best films but also the best directors, the best actresses and the best scripts.
The most amazing thing is that Angela competes for the best director with "American Beauty" and Soderberger, but also writes "Never Compromise" and Soderberger for the best original screenwriter. The Beauty score and John Williams compete for the best score. Miss Genius is really good and powerful.
"It is well known that an excellent screenplay is the basis of an excellent film. Although a good screenplay does not necessarily make a good film, there is bound to be a higher level with this basic film."
The award-winning guest Kim Carey stood on the stage and said, "So let's see who gets the award for the best original screenplay."
As the avatar of the nominated screenwriter was split on the small screen, Kim Carey opened the envelope in his hand, and as he screamed with an unbelievable expression, he opened his mouth to look at the audience and looked down at the stationery so three or four times. They didn't make any noise, making people laugh and couldn't help but want to give him a punch.
"I have to say-it's a pity," Kim Carey shook his head with a sigh. "Personally, I hope someone wins, but the winner of the best original screenplay is Allen Bob. "American Beauty", congratulations! "With the sound of music and warm applause, Allen stepped onto the stage with joy, and after taking over this little golden figure from King's hands, he suppressed the excitement and began to make a speech: "Thank you to the Academy of Film, to my parents, to my friends, to everyone who should be grateful! When I conceived this script in the World Trade Building after seeing the plastic bag flying in the wind, I did not expect to stand one day Here, it ’s really exciting. I still remember when Angela was snarling on the phone when she was dissatisfied with the script. I love you, thank you, thank you very much!
After the roar of laughter, there was warm applause, including Angela was also struggling Clapped his hands, and snorted until Allen came down and walked by: "Nice speech, you can exaggerate and inflame a little more."
"Thank you, madam, I will definitely do it next time, and of course you will still growl on the phone if you still laugh."
Alan Haha smiled and walked back a few steps back to his place.
"It looks like you don't care about not being the best screenwriter."
Spissy on the left said suddenly.
"Even I know who to choose between" Never Compromise "and" American Beauty "let alone the judges. It is good to get it, and it is not bad to get it."
Angela shrugged, and added in her heart: I will get the best original script, someday, in my own strength! "It's you, nominated as the best visual actor. Would you like to bet you will get it?" Angela suddenly said again. "
Sorry, I do n’t bet on this, it all depends on God ’s will.
Spencer put ten fingers together.
Angela understands what he means. The nominations for the best actor this time are very good. Needless to say, Tom Hanks' acting skills, after all, he won the film in 1993 and 1994.
And whether it's Edward Norton's performance in "The American X File" or Ian McLaren who has not yet become "Gandalf" in "God and the Devil", it is very eye-catching, let alone Robbe. To Bernini's "Beautiful Life" was written, directed and performed by himself.
In the face of so many competitors with such outstanding performance, obviously it depends on how God arranges it.
But in the eyes of Miss Genius, it was only Roberto Benigni that could pose a threat.
Hanks has also won and lost, unless there is a major breakthrough, the best actor should not be delivered to him; while Norton is good, but the "American X File" is not as good as "American Beauty", and Spencer has nearly ten years more experience than Norton; as for the film academy of Sir McLaren, the best actor will not be sent to a man.
Of course, guessing is just guessing, and the results have to be announced by guests.
"The winner of the best actor is" American Beauty ", Kevin Spacey! Congratulations ~! With the announcement of the last best actress winner Helen Hunt, the old has always been sitting On the other hand, Spencer jumped up and squeezed his hands into fists, and Angela followed the crew of the crew to stand up and applaud.
"Awesome, thank you."
Excited Spicey hugs Annette, Chris, and other actors respectively, and finally came to Angela and gave her a bear hug: "I love you, Angie ~!" The back comforted a few words, and at the same time grinned in the stomach to comfort himself, the other party was just too excited without meaning.
"I never expected that I would lift the Oscar trophy again after two years. The difference is that it changed its name and replaced it with the best actor. To be honest, I no longer know what I should say. I want to thank, Thanks to my parents and friends, and Angela, God knows that I almost quit this role, but she finally convinced me, thank you again, everyone!
Spacey lifted the little golden man and waved his hand slightly, bowed slightly. After walking off the stage.
The entire crew shook hands with him again to congratulate him, while Angela glanced at nearby Annette, and what will happen when the best actress is awarded? Next came a lot of technology awards, because the appearance of "American Beauty", "Uncompromising" and "The Matrix" should have been the confrontation between the two films "Saving Soldier Ryan" and "Shakespeare Love". The 71st Escar became the chaos of today.
"Saving Soldier Ryan" and "The Matrix" divided the visual and sound effects, while "Shakespeare Love" shared makeup and clothing with another movie "Elizabeth", and then unexpectedly let "Beautiful Life" take Here comes the best soundtrack.
Angela figured out the time and talked to the people around her. After getting up, she got up and went backstage. Next, she will be awarded the best actress with the last best actor Jack Nicholson.
I have to say that the organizers are very good at finding out, two of the five best actress nominations are closely related to themselves.
"Ms. Angela, are you sure you want to go to the front like this, are you sure you don't change your clothes?" Nicholson, who was sitting next to the same make-up, couldn't help asking while the makeup artist was making up for himself.
"I don't think there is a rule that doesn't allow women to wear women's suits to present awards, right?" Angela smiled, and at the same time could not help but be slightly annoyed, but is it just a fuss to wear a suit? Obviously, the decision to release Oscar pigeons in the future was correct.
"Of course not," Nicholson didn't see anything, "I just think that beautiful women like you would be more attractive in evening dresses.
Although women's suits are also good, they are not suitable for this occasion. "
"Thank you for the compliment," although she knew that the other person really complimented herself, Angela was not an "ordinary" woman after all. "But since I've already come to the Oscars like this, it's better to be so maverick."
Soon everything was ready and Angela and Nicholson came to the exit next to the stage.
After the host Ubi announced that the best actress would be awarded soon, the two talents came out together.
Who can get the best actress? It's hard to say, because of the advance appearance of "American Beauty" and "Never Compromise", Julia and Annette accidentally squeezed out Fernand Montanago and Meryl Streep who were nominated. And the only thing they can compete with is Emily Watson in Cello Crazy.
Speaking of which, Oscar has a very bad habit in the selection of actresses. The more crazy, female, and nervous the female character is—the simpler it is, the easier it is for a normal person to be favored by the judges. This is the best. The selection of the heroine is particularly obvious.
Although this condition does not play a decisive role, it is undeniable that many people think that the more this role can test the acting skills, it is really not a good thing for female actors.
Well, the topic turned back to look at the nomination list, Julia's swearing single mother image and Annette's distorted white-collar female image in the depression are equal; Blanchett's performance in "Elizabeth" is remarkable , But it is still worse than the two of them. As for Gwennis, although it was her after the 71st film, this is also the most criticized Oscar this time. If in "American Beauty" and " The words "Never Compromise" were awarded to Gwyneth in the premature circumstances, and it can only be said that the judges were poured into a Pacific Ocean.
And Jacqueline, who is Emily Watson's experiment in Cello Crazy, is both sensitive and slender.
However, because the film was based on the life of the famous cellist Ms. Jacqueline Duprey, and was accused by many musicians of being completely inconsistent with the facts, points may be deducted from this point.
But again, you never know who the winner is until the last second.
"If I remember correctly, this should be my first time as an awards guest, but I suddenly realized that this might be a wrong decision."
Watching the audience below Angela suddenly came to such a sentence.
"Why? Because you're wearing this?" Nicholson asked with a smile. "It's beautiful and outstanding, isn't it?" This guy with a forehead was only aware that Angela had deliberately tilted his head to look at him. Shrugging: "Well, you already guessed anyway, so who do you most hope to get the best actress?" "I want to--" Angela paused, and then took a step to the side. Looking at Jack Nicholson up and down with suspicion and vigilance.
"Is there a problem?" Nicholson, though puzzled, co-operated with an innocent expression and drew a chuckle.
"Jack, shouldn't you have anything hidden on your body? When I answer, you won't be mad and thunderous, won't you take the axe out of unimaginable places?" Angela asked earnestly, at the venue Suddenly burst out laughing.
Nicholson smiled bitterly, but raised his hands: "Rest assured, I assure you that what you worry about won't come true."
Then, after Angela pretended to be relieved, he immediately added: "In 80 years, I will not use the awkward stuff of axe, and change to something more compact."
There was another laugh, and Angela immediately reached out and snatched the envelope from Nicholson to open it: "Is it necessary to say so much? I'll let you know."
Following her eyes brightening, her lips suddenly turned into a charming arc. Obviously, there was no water in the judges' heads. It didn't matter that they had failed to compete for the best film in time.
