章 280: Chapter 280 Honor
Danny Bauer jumped up and down with excitement after receiving the trophy, "You guys are so generous to grant me this honor, thanks to the Academy, now that I've got this award, but my kids are all grown up, but I hope that they will still get this award in the future. Thank you Mumbai, thank you to the people there who have helped us with our movies and to the people who haven't, everything about you (Mumbai) eclipses this award."
The testimonial was nothing out of the ordinary, and the audience on stage might have listened attentively because of the importance they attached to the award, but Lin Mingyang, who was standing next to Danny Bauer, hadn't listened to half of the other man's testimonial at all. Slumdog Millionaire" in this session of the Oscars to win a great deal has been a certainty, this British director, tells the story of what happened in Mumbai, India, to the United States studio production of Indian films, in the financial crisis sweeping the world and the Mumbai terrorist attacks in the dual background, obviously some of the suspicion of the coquetry of the suspicion.
At least in Lin Mingyang's opinion, this is not the best movie of director Danny Bauer, whose past movies were basically about showing human evil. Now, when he has passed the age of 40, he surprises the audience with the cheesy, warm and sharp "Poor Rich Man". Whereas his previous films reflected life in purgatory, Poor Rich Man is a piercing fairy tale drama in the sun. It's a story of big spilled blood and uproarious absurdity that would be impossible in Britain at the moment. The only way to make it take place in a believable time and space would be in England a couple of hundred years ago, or in Bombay in the present day.
Populous, large and dirty, the state of India and the BRIC countries of Brazil, Russia and China appears as such in the vision of the developed West. It's a visual pattern that can't be denied, relates to so many grand narratives and individual experiences, and it's the fundamental reason why Danny Bauer was able to take Best Director.
After thanking a long list of people, Danny Bauer finally used up all his speaking time, probably because he was overly excited, when he came down from the front stage, he stumbled and almost fell. Fortunately, Lin Mingyang helped him in time, Danny Bauer held his glasses after he stood still and expressed his gratitude to Lin Mingyang with a palpitating heart.
The two parted ways on stage, the live camera did not follow Danny Bauer to capture his celebration on stage, but instead tailed Lin Mingyang back to his seat, this side of Julie took the initiative to come up to his ear, covering half of her face with her hand and muttering a couple of sentences in a low voice, Lin Mingyang just laughed when he heard it.
The camera once again turned back to the front stage, the upcoming announcement is the winner of the best actress, in order to attract eyeballs, the Oscars organizing committee invited four past Oscar winners to serve as the guest of honor for this award, the live camera sweeps one by one from the stage a few nominee's faces swept through, the screen finally stopped at Angelina Jolie here.
The other nominees are more or less nervous at this time, only Jolie looks very relaxed, in the Internet her winning call is the highest, but unfortunately the Oscars is not the people's choice award, in accordance with the usual practice, generally in the network selection of the most popular nominees, basically no chance of the Grand Prize.
As expected, when the four award winners shouted out Kate Winslet's name in unison, "Fat Winn" excitedly covered her mouth, while the other nominees sat there with different expressions, when the camera once again patronized Julie's side, she was sideways and Lin Mingyang jokes, look at her face, it is difficult to find a trace of the look of loss! .
Having been nominated for 5 Oscars previously, Kate Winslet had finally fulfilled her dream of being a movie queen, and no female movie star under the age of 40 in Hollywood had ever been able to receive so much Oscar recognition. As she received the trophy, the venue erupted in the loudest applause since the entire awards ceremony began.
As each winner came up to the stage to receive their award and spoke when they received their trophy, the countdown display on the stage went to work, the winners could see the black backboard marked in white letters 45 seconds to start the countdown, by the time 10 seconds had elapsed, the backboard of the monitor turned yellow and the countdown numbers were in black, by the time the timer had cleared, the display turned red and kept flashing, "please End." But most of the winners ignored the countdown sign, and Winslet, who got her long-cherished dream today, even cried and thanked her many friends.
"I'd be lying if I said I hadn't prepared my speech beforehand. When I was 8 years old, I held a shampoo bottle in front of the mirror and pretended to win an Oscar, and now, it's finally not a shampoo bottle anymore!"
To another standing ovation, Winslet walked off the stage holding her beloved shampoo bottle. In order to save time, the host didn't have any crosstalk at all, and directly invited out the Best Actor honoree.
The live broadcast still follows the usual practice of capturing the expressions of the nominees in the crowd, probably because the choreographer asked the cameraman's camera to "patronize" Lin Ming Yang has reached the number of times, but also may be a few award presenters gags between the time is a little short, in any case, the camera has not yet seen Lin Ming Yang, the screen has already been turned back to the front stage.
Very coincidentally, this time the two award presenters, one is the last Oscar's actor Daniel Lewis, the other is not long ago also sat with Lin Ming Yang watching football Jack Nicholson.
"Mr. Nicholson, I don't know if you've noticed, but of the five actors nominated this time, two of them have both won this award before." When introducing the several nominees, Daniel Lewis made a special mention of this, and he was naturally referring to Lin Ming Yang and Sean Penn.
"As a matter of fact, the two you mentioned also have the highest call for the award on the internet, while they can both be very controversial characters in reality..." said Jack Nicholson, even pointing the finger directly at the two's performance in real life.
Lin Ming Yang in a short period of 6 years quickly rose to become Hollywood's brightest new star, this process is accompanied by a variety of scandalous controversy, all the female stars with whom he has worked, without exception, and he had rumors. Over the years, the question of who his girlfriend was has remained a mystery in Hollywood. The youngest Oscar-winning actor and the most legendary chairman of the film company, no matter how the media denigrated and satirized him over the years, Lin Mingyang's self-contained character and the momentum of his great popularity were almost unstoppable.
Sean Penn's fame began in the 1980s, when he was the undisputed man of the entertainment industry, and the second actor in Hollywood history to win the best actor at Cannes, Berlin, Venice and the Oscars. But his fame can't all be attributed to his mesmerizing performance, his bad temper and his short-lived marriage to Madonna are the main reasons why he became a household name.
In the summer of 1985, he threw a rock at a British photojournalist. The following spring, he threw a punch at Daniel Wolenski after the songwriter gave "Mrs. Penn" Madonna a friendly kiss. Sean Penn was sentenced to a year's probation. A few months later, he went on a rampage, kicking the asses of two photographers ambushed in front of his New York apartment. He lived quietly for a year, but in 1987, when he found an extra taking his picture in the studio, he couldn't help but rush forward and beat the unlucky man black and blue. This physical assault landed Sean Penn in jail for a month. After his release, Penn's temper was much better, and he was able to take the frequently flashing strobe lights in stride, only occasionally displaying the unquenchable fire in his chest when in front of the camera.
Lin Ming Yang is a scandalous "playboy" and Sean Penn is a bad boy with a bad temper, so the two of them are really comparable in terms of personality. Among the five nominees, they are the most famous, so making fun of them has naturally become a "sharp weapon" used by the honorees to warm up the audience.
Daniel Lewis humorously echoed: "I think the two of them have one thing in common is that they don't like journalists very much, if the winner is one of them, I think the editor-in-chief of the major media in Hollywood should have a headache for how to get the opportunity to interview the newly crowned movie star!
"But the other nominees are also very good, and I wouldn't be surprised if either of them won." Jack Nicholson promptly wrapped up his discussion of Lin Ming Yang and Sean Penn, and proceeded to turn the conversation back to the awards.
"Last year when I was sitting on the stage, I used to complain that the guests on the stage were talking too much nonsense, but now that I've become a guest of honor, I find myself becoming a chatterbox when it comes to awarding prizes as well, is that what makes the Oscars so appealing?" Daniel Lewis nodded, "Well, I know a few of you on stage can't wait, so let's ask Mr. Nicholson to open the envelope and announce the results to everyone!"
In this moment, all eyes were focused on Jack Nicholson's hands as he skillfully pulled open the envelope before sharing the slip of paper with the list of winners with Daniel Lewis beside him and looking at it.
"I announce that the winner of this year's Oscar for Best Actor is..." the long trailing notes of Jack Nicholson didn't drag out the name of the winner, but the atmosphere of the scene was fully mobilized by him.
Daniel Lewis, who worked well with him, followed suit and shouted out the name of the winner in a high-pitched, booming figure.
"Felix Lim!"
The scene immediately boiled over, the audience in the back row applauded vigorously, screaming and cheering in succession, and Lin Mingyang stood up from his seat and bowed deeply to the audience in front of the stage, and when he got up, he also stretched out his arms in a gesture of embracing the whole audience, and of course he embraced the thunderous tidal wave of applause from the whole audience.
The long-lasting applause continued until Lin Mingyang embraced Daniel Lewis, and then received the trophy from Jack Nicholson's hands before subsiding, before Lin Mingyang's acceptance speech, the electronic screen behind the stage replayed the 78th Oscars, Lin Mingyang received the award when the highlights of the Oscars, three years later, Lin Mingyang once again stood on the stage of the Oscars, ready to receive the second movie star trophy.
Lin Mingyang himself has not yet opened his mouth, the audience on the stage can not help but stand up, the entire standing ovation resounded throughout the theater, Lin Mingyang held up the trophy, responding to the enthusiastic response from the stage.
Standing beside him Daniel Lewis and Jack Nicholson at the moment are full of emotion, the same is the Oscar winner, when they won the award can not enjoy such a warm atmosphere. If Lin Mingyang's last award was a cold dark horse, this time he really deserved the honor.
As the applause died down, Lin Ming Yang was finally able to start his own acceptance speech. While other award winners like to hold the trophy in their hands when giving their speeches, Lin Mingyang placed the trophy lightly on one side and held the microphone upright.
"I am very honored to be the first actor in the history of the Oscars to win an Oscar for playing a villainous role, and to be able to win an award for playing a bad guy, the Oscars have allowed me to appreciate his tolerance for the arts, so I would like to express my gratitude to the Academy here...of course at the same time, I also have to thank the character of the Joker, without him, I wouldn't be standing here today here today; without him, I wouldn't have known that I could play a character so well!"
Looking at the sign across the room, the 45 seconds of speaking time hadn't been used up yet, Lin Ming Yang continued after a half-second pause, "Like other winners, I actually have a lot to say, but I don't think this will be the last time I stand on the Oscar podium to give a speech, so in order to be able to have something to say in the future, I'm going to say this much now, thank you! Thank you!"
Lin Mingyang hugged the trophy and kissed it lightly, then waved to the audience and walked off the stage with a dashing gesture, and what greeted him offstage was not only the warm applause that rang out once again, but also a bold and spontaneous embrace from Julie in full view of everyone.
The awards ceremony continued, but many people were still reminiscing about Lin Ming Yang's speech just now. The truth was that even with the Oscars' fame, the process of the awards ceremony still inevitably had an element of tedium to it, and apart from the hardcore movie fans, it was definitely a painful ordeal to make the average viewer stick around in front of the TV for two hours.
Every organizing committee has gone to great lengths to try to make the show more interesting, and the Oscars are never short of big-name stars, but on this stage, it's not as if the audience will love you if you're famous.
A lot of stars in the usual very popular, but appeared on the stage of the Oscars but the charm of the sharp decline, the reason is still because the awards ceremony itself is just an announcement of the results of the event, held more than 80 years, and then want to play what tricks has been very difficult, and the performance of the winning stars are mostly in the middle of the routine of the excitement, tears, and then a lengthy thank you. Generations of viewers have long since grown tired of these ever-repeating procedures, so much so that the ratings for the Oscars have shown a downward trend year after year.
Of course the awards of certain stars will be highly publicized, and the ratings of the concurrent segments will see a significant increase. Just like this Oscars ceremony hasn't even ended yet, the video clip of Lin Ming Yang winning the award has already gotten more than 1 million hits on YouTube. Viewers like to see stars like Lin Mingyang win at the Oscars because a few Hollywood stars, represented by Lin Mingyang, tend to be different in their acceptance speeches, and actors with personalities are more likely to be loved by viewers.
The awards ceremony is still continuing, every day the main event will fall on the best film competition, but this year this award is not surprisingly by the "Slumdog Millionaire" rolled away, although the award presenter is the famous Spielberg, but the audience on the stage did not react positively, the film producer went on stage to receive the award, the applause was not as enthusiastic as a moment ago when Lin Mingyang received the award.
The whole ceremony came to an end with the cheers of all the people, and Slumdog Millionaire, which had already set a record of winning awards for the year, unsurprisingly won eight awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Editor, which was both highly desirable and a surprise to all the people.
Compared with last year's Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, this year's four major performance awards seem to be moderate, the Best Supporting Actress is just like Spain's Penelope Cruz's magnificent enthronement ceremony, and the Best Supporting Actor is the unsurprising achievement of Josh Brolin in Mick's Biography.
In contrast, the movie king and queen of the battle is considered the most suspenseful awards this year, Kate Winslet won the old actress Meryl Streep, finally ended the five nominations but not the brilliant record of regret, based on the dedication of a year of "The Reader" and "Revolutionary Road" two major performance masterpieces, the award is also taken indisputable.
Lin Mingyang and Sean Penn had one of the most evenly matched acting duels of all time, ending in a close victory for Lin Mingyang's precise performance in The Dark Knight. Although this is his second time being honored with the title of Actor in the Movie, it is clear from the unprecedented expression of gratitude to the Academy at the beginning of Lin Mingyang's acceptance speech that the award was not easy to come by, and the weight of the award is something to be remembered for the rest of one's life. Though the awards were not unexpected, the spectacle of the awards was still enough to bring the audience's emotions to the forefront, especially when Lin Mingyang received his award with a standing ovation, which is a rare sight at an Oscars ceremony.
Acting awards other than the other awards is basically the distribution of the average, in addition to the best foreign language awarded to Japan's "mortician" and few dark horses, the year's hit animated film "Robot WALL-E" a sweep of the shame of the Annies lost, original screenplay awards and adapted screenplay awards by their respective categories of the frontrunner "Milk" and "Slumdog Millionaire" as desired to take away.
The technical awards were split evenly between Slumdog Millionaire and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, with the occasional lightweight blowout such as Best Costume Design for The Duchess and Best Sound Editing for The Dark Knight, but overall it was a happy ending for all.
