I’m in Hollywood

Chapter 296 Oscar (Part 1)

Eric was pondering the similarities and differences of the three European screen images, and he looked around to find the figure of Isabel Adjani.

If not affected by the Eric Butterfly Effect, according to time, the actress who has won the French film's highest honor, the Caesar Award, should have met and fell in love with Daniel Day-Lewis last year, but it is difficult to say now.

After patrolling for a week, Eric hadn't found Isabel Adjani's figure, and was poked in the waist by Virginia sitting next to her: Eric, the best supporting actress.

Eric hurriedly turned his attention to the stage. At this time, the best supporting actress award guest Kevin Klein had finished speaking and began to introduce the list of several actors nominated for the best supporting actress: Won the This year's Oscar nominees for Best Supporting Actress include Brenda Frick, My Left Foot; Anjelica Huston, The Enemy, a Love Story; Lena Olin, The Enemy, A Love Story; Julia Roberts, Steel Magnolia, and Diana West, Hot Family.

Five Best Supporting Actress nominees appeared on the big screen behind Kevin Klein's introduction one by one, although that Enemy, A Love Story won two Best Supporting Actress The nomination surprised Eric a little, but Eric focused more on Brenda Frick, who won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for My Left Foot.

Because My Left Foot is the first very successful Olympic film operated by Miramax, it not only won Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress and Five nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay, and, Eric clearly remembers, Daniel Day-Lewis also won his first Oscar for Best Actor for the film.

As for other award results. Eric is not too clear.

Therefore, the nomination for Best Supporting Actress in My Left Foot is undoubtedly the one that poses the greatest threat to Julia.

This year's Oscar nominations came out. Eric was still in the middle of that turmoil and couldn't be distracted from the PR of the awards. And Disney, which released the film, was even less likely to do PR for the film at that time. Therefore, now we can only look at Robert Shea, who has ten years more film distribution experience than Miramax's Weinstein brothers. , can you beat the Weinstein brothers in terms of awards PR?

Eric looked at the picture of Julia on the big screen. The girl was staring at the stage nervously, but her body was slightly tilted. Eric curiously found Julia's position and looked over. It turned out that the girl and Elizabeth beside him were leaning against each other, and Eric could still see the arms of the two girls holding each other from the gap of the seat. The strange feeling when they met at the end of the red carpet came to mind again.

But before Eric could think about it, Kevin Klein opened the envelope,

It seems to be the same: This year's Best Supporting Actress Oscar winner is Julia Roberts.

The music and applause sounded enthusiastically at the same time. Julia in the front row covered her mouth and leaned on the back of the chair in surprise. After a while, she stood up with the encouragement of the people around her to join the crew of Steel Magnolia. After hugging one by one, they walked to the stage.

Although the whole process, the girl did not turn her head to look at herself. However, Eric was not angry at all, instead he breathed a sigh of relief.

At least this result proves that Robert Shea's ability to publicize awards is not much worse than the Weinstein brothers.

Julia on the stage carefully supported the statuette and finished her acceptance speech. As the presenters walked off the stage together, it was followed by a period of irrelevant technical awards.

Julia walked out from the backstage exit on the left side of the stage a few minutes later, and when she came to the crew, she finally glanced at Eric, with a hint of gratitude in her eyes, before Eric did. In response, she saw a white arm pulling the girl over, and then Elizabeth turned her head. He gave Eric a stern look.

Eric, did you do something outrageous again? Why do Julia and Miss Elizabeth seem to have a bad opinion of you? Virginia asked softly, noticing the reaction of the two girls .

Eric glared at Virginia discontentedly: Why do you say 'again', do I often do excessive things?

Virginia rolled her eyes charmingly: What do you think?

Eric clasped his hands together and made a fist. He made a few soft clicks and said, It seems that you have a lot of opinions on me in your heart. Hey, come to my place tonight, and let's have a good discussion about what those 'excessive things' you are talking about are.

Virginia blushed when she heard Eric's words, but didn't refute it. Although she lived very close to Eric's Sharphorn Manor, Virginia so far has not once Been there.

When Eric just moved, the girl was either going to spend the holidays with her parents, or she was running around to promote Cry on a Island. After waiting and returning to Los Angeles, Eric encountered the storm again.

After all, the two have not been intimate for several months. As a mature woman like a peach, it must be a lie to say that Virginia doesn't want to. However, because Eric had said it first, and the girl's own career in Hollywood had just picked up with Frightening Island, Virginia did not have the idea of ​​breaking away from Eric. Men are nasty at times, but most of the time they are very considerate.

After a series of technical awards such as best photography and best sound effects, the awards ceremony slowly came to a climax in the second half.

After Tom Hanks and Melanie Griffith presented the Best Cinematography Award, the famous Roman Holiday actor Gregory Pike took to the stage.

Although Sigourney Weaver was nominated for both Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress at last year's Golden Globes for The Misty Lock and Working Girl, Eric can be sure that This kind of thing is very difficult at an awards ceremony at the level of the Oscars, not to mention that Julia is only twenty-three years old now. In this age when the Oscars are still relatively conservative, she can win a best supporting actress and at the same time win the best actress. The heroine nomination is already very lucky. As for winning two awards at the same time, the probability of such a thing happening is lower than that of alien invasion.

Following Eric's thoughts, Gregory Pike on the stage has already introduced the five best actress nominations. In many previous reports, many media have predicted that this year's Oscar for best actress The winner is likely to be Jessica Tandy, who had an excellent performance in Driving Miss Daisy, the 81-year-old high-collared actress once known as the 'First Lady of Broadway', only from This title can reveal some clues of the other party's brilliant acting career.

And, even without Jessica Tandy, without the Best Supporting Actress Julia just won, Eric can be sure that Julia won't get this award, because there is another competition in the Best Actress nomination. The actor, that is Isabel Adjani, in the movie Rodin's Lover, Isabel Adjani's performance is crazy, although Hollywood has always discriminated against foreign actors, but without Jessica Tandy If such a brilliant old actor competes, the Academy will undoubtedly award this award to Isabel Adjani.

On the stage, Gregory Pike slowly opened the envelope, and amid the nervous anticipation of the crowd, he read out that after he took the stage instead of the last best actor Dustin Hoffman, there was not much left. The name of the suspense: This year's Oscar for best actress is: Jessica Tandy.

The applause sounded warmly again, and an old woman with gray hair slowly stood up and stepped onto the award stage in the congratulations of the cast members of Driving for Miss Daisy.

Eric also looked at the Driving for Miss Daisy crew like everyone else. His focus was on Morgan Freeman, the leading actor of Driving for Miss Daisy. This Hollywood veteran actor is eight years old. Begin to perform on stage, but the star road is extremely bumpy. It was not until 1987, at the age of fifty, that Morgan Freeman made his debut in Hollywood, and can be described as the most legendary inspirational brother in Hollywood.

After Jessica Tandy delivered her speech, she walked off the stage with the support of the guests.

The host, Billy Crystal, followed him onto the stage, silently watching Jessica Tandy and the others disappear completely. Billy Crystal turned to the microphone, cleared his throat, and said nothing. Instead, he said with a rare seriousness: There is no doubt that 'Driving for Miss Daisy' is a very good movie, and it has also made two very good actors, except for Jessica Ricky, who has just left. Ms. Tandy, and Mr. Morgan Freeman who is sitting in the audience. Mr. Morgan Freeman is fifty-three years old this year. If you add Ms. Jessica Tandy's age, then, With an average age of 67, this duo is certainly the oldest in Oscar history to win both male and female leads.

After Billy Crystal finished speaking, the audience immediately remembered the applause full of respect, and although Morgan Freeman in the camera still maintained the appearance of sitting upright, the excitement in his expression could not be concealed. After all, from him His acting career, to finally be affirmed, is indeed too long to be added for decades. (To be continued)
