The Greatest Showman (Big Play Bone)
Chapter 2331: Best halftime
Before the official start of the Oscars, the hacking incident of Sony Columbia Pictures was undoubtedly the absolute focus of attention outside the industry, so the Sony classics that were implicated have also become scorched; and the issue of "equal pay for men and women" has become another aspect of the college's public relations. The weather vane of public opinion...
But it is Amy Pascal and Scott Rudin, two senior leaders in the industry, who are really at the center of the vortex, whose reputation and prestige have suffered many blows.
Among them, Amy’s situation is a little more relaxed. Her position is closely related to the crisis management of Sony Columbia Pictures. The worst result is to change a job. With her qualifications and abilities, she will not lose her job; but Scott must Still survive in Hollywood circles.
Of course, with Scott’s status in the industry, he is not going to be completely depressed. The real direct impact is that the "Budapest Hotel" where he is the producer has suffered a heavy blow. The second stage of the college public relations facing severe impact is not that. This kind of direct negative news splashes dirty water, but the murmured critical gaze behind him. Although Scott hasn't really hurt anyone, his two-sided actions cannot be relieved.
From the conversations with reporters in the press center before the awards ceremony, it can be seen that in the first team, the "Budapest Hotel" has gradually fallen behind.
This is a heavy blow to the Fox searchlight, who is aiming to hit the best film. Originally, the "Budapest Hotel" was the best choice to defeat the "boyhood", whether it was a topic of World War II, a sense of retro age, or strange thoughts. The light presentation of fantastic ideas, all of which gives this work its advantage; but even if Scott Rudin has completely absent from the second stage of public relations, the Fox searchlight is still facing a severe test.
So, how did the Fox searchlight choose? Leaning strategically toward the "Birdman", which created the rumors of the news center:
"Birdman" and "Boyhood" are fighting fiercely now, and it is difficult to separate them. "Blasting Drummer" follows closely, and then "Budapest Hotel".
It is against this background that the importance of the technical department to the "Budapest Hotel" has become more and more prominent. If this work still wants to retain a glimmer of hope of competing for the best film, then the relatively weak technology affected by the college's public relations The department is a battleground for military strategists.
Judging from the current situation, the leader deserves to be the leader, even if the negative news of Scott Rudin is seriously delayed, he still maintains the overall strength.
Following the Best Costume Design Award, the "Budapest Hotel" has successively won the best art direction, the best makeup and styling, and the best original soundtrack three statuettes.
Among them, the Best Art Director Award defeated "Interstellar" and "Imitation Game".
Best makeup and styling award, defeated "Fox Hunter" and "Guardians of the Galaxy".
The best original soundtrack award defeated the three works of "Interstellar", "Fox Hunter" and "Theory of Everything".
Among them, the best original soundtrack is worth mentioning. Hans-Zimmer (hans-zimmer) of "Interstellar Crossing" was originally a big hit, and it is very hopeful that it has been 20 years since he reached the top with the "Lion King" in 1994. Taste the taste of the little golden man again; but in the end, the award belongs to the French composer Alexander Dipra (alexandre-)
The composer, who has won six nominations but has never been able to win an award, won double nominations this year for his "Imitation Game" and "Budapest Hotel" and finally won the award for the first time.
So far, the "Budapest Hotel" has led the way in the first half of the awards ceremony with four Golden Man trophies, sweeping away the collateral effects of the hacker incident, and recreating the dawn of hope for the best film, which is also the second half of the awards ceremony. Suspense adds more mystery.
However, the "Budapest Hotel" is not a movie that uses powerful technology to control the overall situation like "gravity". It cannot be swept in the technical department, which also gives opportunities for other works.
"Interstellar" has consecutively won two Golden Men, the best visual effects award, defeated "X-Men: Reversing the Future", "Captain America 2", "Guardians of the Galaxy", "Rise of the Apes 2" and other works; The Best Sound Editing Award defeated works such as "Birdman", "The Hobbit 2", "Indestructible", and "American Sniper".
"Blasting Drummer" also received a goldman once again. The Best Sound Effects Award, "Interstellar", "American Sniper", "Birdman", "Indestructible" and other shortlisted works failed to create an effective threat. The work cleverly runs through the entire story, leading the way through the finish line without any suspense.
When the first half of the awards ceremony was drawing to a close, the "Budapest Hotel" took the lead with four trophies, while "Interstellar" and "Blasting Drummer" each won two golden figures. Overall, there was no upset and lack of bright spots, and basically continued. After the second phase of the pattern, there were no surprises.
regret?
Of course, that is Neil Patrick Harris' magic? What about the transparent box of the award-winning handbag guarded by Octavia Spencer? Why is there no follow-up? Is it just a joke? Neil didn't prepare for the follow-up magic link at all?
Although Neil always used sesame-sized humor to complete the scene every time he appeared on the stage, he seemed to be trying to reduce the duration of the award ceremony as much as possible; but his hurried appearance and departure did not speed up the award ceremony process. Some links cannot be omitted. , But the lack of interaction between the host and the audience, which also made the awards ceremony a bit dry.
At this time, Arthur, who was sitting leisurely by the indoor outdoor swimming pool, slowly stood up, walked across the lobby, walked towards the bar not far away, glanced at the abc TV broadcast on the hanging display, and then Turning around, ready to prepare a little snack for himself, and a little juice, relax and enjoy it, he even started to hum a little song, showing a wonderfully good mood.
Despite this, Neal still dedicated the highlights of tonight's Oscars in the first half.
After the nomination for another best original song, the live camera went directly onto the stage and said: Neil is gone.
Then, the camera lens was projected on the big screen, and all the audience followed the camera director to the background, through the long corridor, looking for Neal's dressing room.
"Has he changed his clothes? Please, are you kidding me now?"
At the far end of the camera lens, you can see Neil wearing a red bathrobe playing around at the door of his dressing room. Then the photographer rushed all the way, only to find that Neil’s bathrobe was stuck in the crack of the door. , He has no way to get rid of himself, in a hurry, Neil can only...
Take off your bathrobe and go directly on stage.
Wearing a pair of white underwear.
Most importantly, the familiar drum soundtrack of "Birdman" sounded, and the lens also showed a "Birdman"-style shot to the end. Obviously, Neil is imitating "Birdman" and Michael Keaton is only wearing white. Underpants took to the classic scene on the streets of New York. This scene made the movie win a lot of attention on social networks, showing a viral effect; now, it has spread to the Oscar stage.
The staff who came to ask for autographs, the staff who took out their mobile phones to follow the film, the staff who gloated at the misfortune, and the backstage guests who were stunned because of the fright... The Oscar backstage directly reproduced the classic clips in "Birdman".
The guests at the scene couldn't help but laugh happily.
Just when everyone thought this was all, they saw Neil stopped and turned around before he was about to take the stage.
Lan Li-Hall!
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
Many audiences couldn't hold back, clapping and laughing: drum, Andrew; Andrew, drum. Under the shell of the "Birdman" imitation show, Neal also invited Lan Li to appear as a "Burst Drummer", which cleverly combined the two works to truly achieve a rare entertainment effect.
Neil turned around and made a "break" gesture to Renly, and said in Fletcher's tone, "It's not my rhythm."
Lan Li was astonished, and immediately threw the drumsticks away, pushed away the camera lens, and turned to leave in strides. His voice echoed in the corridor, "I am leaving, I am leaving now. I absolutely cannot accept it. "
The laughter at the scene could hardly stop, the audience burst into laughter, and when Neil was actually on the stage, he reached the peak of the first half, whistles and applause swept the audience, and the "Birdman" crew was even more happy. Of course, the crew of "Burst Drummer" is not much better.
Undoubtedly, this was the best in the first half, and even the best in the audience.
Neil completed the scene in an embarrassing but must be strong way, "Performance is a noble industry." Then he paused to look at the sky, as if he was hypnotizing himself, and the laughter on the scene burst, "and There are successors in this industry, such as the next group of award-giving guests, magot-robbie (magot-robbie) and ansel-elgort (ansel-elgort)."
After the introduction, Neil ran across the entire stage and left, leaving behind a naked back.
Maybe ~lightnovelpub.net~ Neal did not show magic or interact with social networks; but at this moment, young people on social networks have already started to fry.
The first half of the award ceremony ended with the best foreign language film
Polish director Pawel-pawlikowski's "Sister Ada" did not have too many opponents throughout the awards season, and finally defeated the Russian film "Leviathan", and everyone hopes to win for Poland. The first Oscar statuette in history.
Because this was an important moment in the creation of history, Paul Pavlikowski was very emotional. His acceptance speech lasted more than two minutes, compared to the situation in previous years that were controlled within 40 seconds. It was really out of control, and the guests on the scene did not calm his mood after several applause.
After the awards ceremony, this has become one of the countless small things to talk about on social networks.
The second half of the awards ceremony started with Best Supporting Actress. Last year's Best Supporting Actress winner Jared Leto made his debut. The battle for best film once again sounded the clarion call. This time, will the competition situation change? What? Or will it continue to be calm as in the first half?
