"It's a pity, I always thought Naomi would get the best supporting actress." After Adrian sat back in place, Sophie whispered while watching the stage.

Although several women of similar age around them are distinct because of various reasons, their relationship is generally harmonious, and it is no wonder that Sophie would say so. As for Natalie, they knew a little bit about the twisted relationship between Adrian and her, but they did n’t understand what was going on, but they did n’t think about it because no one would chase the playboy. Woman fuss.

"It's okay, there will be opportunities in the future." Adrian smiled indifferently. Since he was the guest of honor, Naomi and Natalie's chances of winning have fallen to a minimum.

The film academy doesn't want to see places that are too easy to be criticized. Although they have been criticized more, they will never be pretended. However, from this perspective, Adrian's guess should have been correct. The senior management of the college board knew how much the vote was, maybe not very specific, but probably the situation was absolutely clear.

This is just right, and some things can go more smoothly, even if it only adds to his plan.

Well, back to the whole, there is another reason why Sophie would say this.

"Don't worry, just look at it." Adrian patted the back of her hand gently, Sophie's face suddenly turned red. No doubt he saw her mind.

Look at Blanchet on the other side, while listening to Marcia Gay Harden's speech on the stage. But the slightly curved corner of the mouth seemed meaningful, and Sophie could not help but feel a little annoyed, but Adrian immediately took her hand. Although his eyes were focused on the stage, the warm feeling from the palm of his hand let Sophie relax A little, so she just coughed a little awkwardly in the end.

Adrian understands Sophie's feelings, think about her longing, and think about his record in recent years, so the closer the goal is, the easier it will be to make mistakes. In this case, Adrian just comforted her with gestures. Language didn't help much, and instead of letting her hold her back for a while, she used facts to prove that her worry was wrong.

Yes, at this time, he can basically say this with certainty. In order to send Sophie to the throne of the best actress, in addition to those advantages previously mentioned, Adrian has also made some efforts . such as--

"Two Soldiers!" After the awarding guests pronounced their names, there was a routine applause, and Sophie beside Adrian looked a little lost, and then the look of anxiety between the eyebrows became more Already.

"That's a good thing, Sophie," Adrian grabbed her hand and clenched. She gave her a reassuring smile, "Trust me, wait and see."

Sophie opened her mouth, but said nothing, but nodded slightly. Some peace was restored again.

It's not surprising that "Supermarket Sleepless" did not win the best short film. Although "Two Soldiers" seems a bit lengthy, in Adrian's view, the content of forty minutes can be cut in half. This short film tells the story of World War II, but it is also love and loyalty and responsibility. There is also sacrifice. Tongtong is a favorite of the film academy. It is basically impossible to not win prizes, even if "Night Sleep in the Supermarket" can more easily resonate with ordinary people.

It's not that short films that have "won" have won awards, not to mention that Allen Schneider, the director of "Two Soldiers", is a true American.

Sophie's biggest shortcoming is that she is French, and the Academy of Film has always favored natives, not to mention that she has already got a green card. Even if you are a citizen, it will take a long time to erase this from people's minds. The best actresses before, Gwenis and Julia are Americans. Although Nicole is Australian, Australia is easier to integrate into the American cultural circle than other countries. It can be seen from the Australian Gang of Hollywood It is because of this that Blanchett, coupled with Adrian ’s public relations and creating a situation where two films compete at the same time, was able to reach the top, not to mention Nicole was born in Honolulu.

The most troublesome is Monica, but don't forget that in the Hollywood circle, Italians headed by Scorsese also have a lot of right to speak-in this regard, Adrian stepped in and attacked Sri Lanka last year. Kosses is determined to be the best director, it should not be. These, coupled with Weinstein's public relations ability and the full cooperation of the media, sent Monica up. This is the case, and some people still say that she won disgrace.

Then, is there anything in French circles in French circles?

It doesn't seem very difficult, but it is not hopeless. The previous article about Fahrenheit 911 will not be said, and Weinstein's ability is also not mentioned. There is another place-

"Finally it's time again, every time it's so exciting, every time it's so enviable ... Oh, sorry, I mean the one behind, not the one before." Christo made a The appearance of the vice's wrong words immediately caused a lot of laughter.

After several technical awards and more important screenplay awards-no doubt, "Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" swept away-the awards ceremony finally ushered in the final climax, the award of the most important Seg award. First and foremost is the best actress. When Christo announced on the stage, Sophie immediately became nervous again.

At this time, Adrian was more relaxed, and as the awarding guests began to introduce the nomination list, the selections were listed on the screen. In addition to Sophie and Kate who were nominated for "Life of the Rose" and "Warm and Warm," respectively, there are also Samantha Morton of "The New American Dream" and Katerina of "Maria Fortune"? Sandino Moreno and Judy Madsen of Here.

In the eyes of others, there was no problem with the nomination, but they did not know that the list was concocted by Adrian. Without him, at least two women should be on the list. Diane Keaton, who performed well in "Love Is Compromise," performs equally well in "Julie and Julia" ... Meryl Streep.

However, the girl who described the smuggled drug girl in "Mandalf Maria" should attend the Sundance Film Festival in January of this year, and then get a certain high praise and popularity. This independent film was only responsible by Universal under its control after it was produced last year. Focus Films, which released independent films, was fancy, and then quickly screened at the end of the year to be able to participate in this year's Oscar, and Katerina Sandino Moreno also received a nomination for best actress under the focus of efforts.

As for "Here", which depicts American families in the 1950s and 1960s from the perspective of a woman, Emperor Pictures was released, although it seemed to be an independent film company. But in fact, the relationship with Miramax is so inexhaustible, so the starring Judy Madsen also got a nomination.

So, in this nomination list, Kate and Samantha are British, Katerina Colombians, and still young. Only Judy Madsen is American, but this is her first nomination. That's right. Everything is the means used by Adrian. Finding ways to let some actresses who have a low chance of winning an award nominate and crowd out those that are threatening, naturally leaving Sophie more room.

Otherwise, even though "Julie and Julia" is a lukewarm drama, maybe Streep will get the second best actress in advance-so is Diane Keaton- — So it is necessary to do so. It's not easy. But doing nothing or doing nothing is two different things. Fortunately, after mobilizing countless resources, the final result basically met his requirements, although this paid Adrian some considerable price. But based on Sophie's performance, it's totally worth it.

This situation has been created, as well as the foreshadowing of Fahrenheit 911 and Weinstein's hard-working public relations. In addition, Sophie has also been nominated for several Oscar performance awards, and naturally it has not been upset.

"Sophie Marceau!" When the name was pronounced. There was an uproar in the audience, and Sophie covered her mouth in disbelief. She was even a little dazed, and finally got the long-awaited thing. The strong sense of unrealism enveloped her and made her wonder what to do.

"Come up, Sophie." Adrian gave a slight push, and applause sounded at the moment.

"Ok ... ok." Sophie stood up, still a little hesitant. He even glanced at Adrian timidly, until he stepped onto the stage to take over the little golden man, and then stabilized his mood more or less.

"Sorry, I ..." She took a deep breath. "I didn't expect to be here one day, even though I had dreamed countless times. When I just remembered my name, I even thought I was dreaming, I even said to myself: Sophie, are you sure your name, not the same person as you? "

There was a sound of good laughter immediately.

"Thank you," Sophie wiped her eyes. "Thank you to the Academy for awarding me this award. Thank you to everyone in the crew of" Life for Rose ". Thank you for supporting my friends. Thank you ... Adrian. It's my chance. I can finally prove it, I finally use it ... "

Sophie on the stage became choked again. She pursed her lips desperately to control herself, but the corners of her mouth continued to tremble and her eyes became redder. In the end, she made a sob, and although she lowered her head and covered her mouth for the first time, everyone heard it clearly, and her trembling shoulders clearly expressed Sophina, stunned for decades. Finally got the affirmation, so weeping emotions.

Adrian stood up without hesitation, and began to applaud. Under his leadership, the people around him also stood up, and then stood up with many people, whether it was because of Adrian's face. Or because of the herd effect, everyone in the hall finally stood up to applaud Sufi.

"Thank you, thank you again, and thank you ... Ms. Piaf," said Sophie in tears, holding a golden figure in her hand, "I once wondered if I could play this role, but Ms Piaf's My experience has always inspired me, and I have the courage to face it and work hard to fight for it. "

Finally, she took a deep look at Adrian below: "If I have anything else to say, then there is only one word, which is what Ms. Piaf said to the female reporter at the beach in the movie- Love!"

After that, Sophie lifted her skirt and bowed deeply, and warm applause sounded again. When she stepped off the stage. Although he covered his mouth with his hands again, the tears in his eyes fell uncontrollably. When he came to Adrian, he clung to him tightly and buried his head on his shoulders. Sobbed in a low voice.

Adrian didn't care about the surroundings either, gently patted her back to soothe, and it took several seconds for Sophie to control her emotions.

"Sorry, Ed." She said so when she let go of her hand, and hugged Blanchet next to her. Blanchett would hug her for a few seconds. Then, she and the others hugged each other in turn, and then sat back to her position. Although the applause was not great, it never broke.

"Sorry, Ed." Sophie said again.

"It doesn't matter," Adrian smiled slightly. "Remember what I said before?"

Then he raised his index finger to his mouth before Sophie spoke: "Don't worry. We have time tonight."

On the stage, the best actor will be announced soon, and Sophie will not speak, but there are tears in her eyes with indescribable gratitude, and her hand holding Adrian is even tighter.

The winner of the best actor did not exceed Adrian's expectations, and it was still Sean Pan of "Mysterious River". Hollywood well-known bad boy. Speaking of which, some people are so unlucky. Although Tom Cruise has tried his best to express himself in "The Last Samurai", unfortunately Watanabe has been nominated for a best supporting actor, but he has failed.

All right. Not to mention this, Sean Pan who went up to receive the award is very happy. Although he is famously taciturn and dare to shoot helicopters to the media, everyone will sooner or later mature and get the best man. The protagonist can also be regarded as the film school for him to mature. Or a certainty to become compromised.

But Clint Eastwood's face is not very good. The reason is simple. Throughout the history of Oscar, there are very few works that have won awards for performances, directors and best films. In addition to "Mysterious River", which helped Sean Pan get the best supporting actor, Tim Robbins previously got the best supporting actor. Then I want to get the best director and the best film. Hope It is very slim.

At other times, the old man may be confident and can fight for it. But with Adrian, the pervert who has been nominated for several consecutive years, no matter in the best director or the best film, it is difficult for him to have too much confidence. Although they are both referees and players-Eastwood is a director from an actor, has long been a member of the Academy of Film, and has a wide network in Hollywood, but Adrian's power and Resources are far beyond his reach, this is always a country where money comes first.

So, just like Sophie ’s best actress, before attending the awards ceremony, the Adrian Society has repeatedly requested that all aspects and aspects be final, but after entering the Kodak Theater, it calmed down, yes Your own must be yours!

"Well, everyone, now it's the last moment, maybe, tonight will produce a miracle that I have never seen before!" Christo frowned, "Of course, when I say the word miracle, it is really a simple miracle There is no other hint, I promise, absolutely nothing, please believe me! "

Haha laughed at the scene. Everyone knew what he was talking about. Adrian shrugged and looked at the stage with a decent smile until-

"The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King, Adrian Cowell!"

it is good! When the soundtrack for The Lord of the Rings sounded, Adrian breathed a sigh of relief and shook his fist slightly. Although he has participated in countless Oscars, and although he knows that he is the most likely to win, as he told reporters tirelessly, no one can guarantee that he will be the winner until the last minute. From this point In fact, Oscar's business operations are really excellent.

After he got up, the people around him began to congratulate him. Although Sophie became a bit stubborn because of her enthusiasm before, Blanchett, Monica, and Liv didn't have so much concern. They hugged them one by one. Also attracted the attention of many people.

Adrian looked arrogantly on the stage, UU reading www. uukanshu. After receiving the best-directed little golden man, com coughed into the microphone, and then took out a small piece of paper from his jacket pocket, and frowned, and then stammered. "This ... Thanks ... Um ... Sorry, I don't see the word clearly. "

There was a sudden laughter below.

"Well, I said I shouldn't have prepared it in advance." Adrian turned the paper over, and the camera struck it, leaving it blank, and the laughter grew louder.

"Frankly, I don't remember the feeling of the trophy when I took the best director last time. Thanks to the college for letting me relive this feeling, although ... oh my poor" The Matrix ", you never Suitable for this kind of scene. "Adri sighed sighingly, again causing a laugh.

"Of course, this is already a very good change. I believe that the academy and all the filmmakers have been working hard, constantly seeking new changes, and thank God, this is why we can always maintain our glory." Adrienne An raised the trophy in his hands: "Finally, thank the entire crew. This glory belongs not only to me but also to you. Without you, I cannot show the magnificent Middle-earth world by myself. Without you, I am alone It is impossible to carry this grand adventure to the end. This is a great victory. This adventure must always be remembered in our hearts, thank you! "(To be continued ...)
