Birth of an actor
Chapter 217 Let Caesar's Belong to Caesar and God's Belong to God
"William Bradley! A Beautiful Mind!"
After a suspenseful pause, Julia Roberts finally announced the Oscar for Best Actor, and turned the card over and showed it to everyone—the white card is in the middle, clearly printed In two lines, neither Denzel Washington nor Sean Penn, but very eye-catching "William Bradley" and "A Beautiful Mind".
Some people were fantasizing a second ago, hoping it was Julia Roberts playing a prank, or an awards show.
——The Oscar awards ceremony is a live broadcast, and no matter how rigorous the live broadcast is, there is a certain chance of mistakes. In fact, as early as the 1964 Oscars, there was an award-winning incident. When Sammy Davis Jr. presented the best soundtrack award , having been given the wrong envelope, gave John Edison of Tom Jones what should have been awarded to André Previn, who composed the score for "Girls Emma," but he quickly responded with humor. It was remedied by means, and the award was re-presented with a pair of glasses on purpose, which meant that this time there would never be a mistake in pronouncing the name again.
But at this moment, the black-and-white award card in Julia Roberts's hand was clearly captured by the camera, and there was no possibility of fraud, which completely shattered the dreams of those who had unrealistic ideas.
No.70 The winner of the four Academy Awards is William Bradley!
The youngest nominee got the last laugh instead!
Canada, Australia, China, Japan, the United Kingdom, France, Brazil, South Africa... Almost at the same time, Julia Roberts announced the winner of the Best Actor award, which was broadcast to the TV screens of viewers in nearly [-] countries around the world through satellite signals superior.
At this moment, I don't know how many William Bradley fans are completely crazy.
And on the Internet, netizens have already been frying the pot, English, Chinese, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Dutch, even Hebrew and Indonesian, dozens of languages are all discussing the same thing, then This is the birth of a new Oscar winner.
……
Manhattan, New York, on the right side of Washington Square, in the New York University Goddard dormitory building.
"Will won! Ha, I knew he'd win!"
Scott Evans jumped up from the dormitory bed with a carp, and performed a few wild dance steps in a small space. After venting his excitement a little bit, he found his mobile phone and quickly dialed a number: " The winner of the Oscar has just been announced—" As soon as the call was connected, he said before the other party could speak: "Quickly guess who it is, Chris, this time we bet a hundred dollars!"
"Stop asking stupid questions, Scott, like I'm not watching TV." Chris Evans on the other end of the phone wasn't hooked at all: "Also, you lost five bets on the Golden Globes last time." The ten knives haven’t been given to me yet.”
Scott Evans identified it carefully, and sure enough, he heard thunderous applause from the TV set through the receiver.
"Boring. Thought you were too busy to watch TV during filming." Scott Evans complained, then excitedly said: "If I send Will a congratulatory message now, he will see Is it?" After imagining that he was the first person to congratulate William for winning the Oscar, and the other party's reaction after seeing the email, Scott's cheeks were flushed.
"Will's phone must be full of emails by now, and I think he'll be too busy to check his email tonight, maybe you can call him directly tomorrow, Will never fails to pick up friends Telephone."
Scott Evans did have William's private cell phone number. "Understood, I will call again tomorrow morning." He said in a low voice, but he had to admit that his brother was right.Then Scott calculated the time difference between New York and Los Angeles in his mind. New York is now more than one o'clock in the morning, and Los Angeles is more than three hours earlier. That is to say, if he calls William eight hours later, he should be the first to congratulate William. one of his people.
Well, this is actually even more exciting, eight hours later, he will be able to hear the voice of the new Oscar winner!
In the Bel Air district of Los Angeles, an old house built on the top of a hill near USC is brightly lit.
It's already the usual bedtime, but Clint Eastwood is still watching TV. As a filmmaker, he certainly can't miss the annual event in Hollywood. Moreover, he wants to know the choice made by Oscar What is it? It has been softened by various sugar-coated shells, it is credulous to the media mouthpiece bought by speculators, it is to succumb to the political pressure exerted by some organizations... Or, it still retains a little professional ethics and listens to the heart choose.
To be honest, even though Clint Eastwood has persuaded many friends with the same values and the neutrals in the academy not to be easily influenced by the outside world, he is still not sure about the final result.
until now.Clint Eastwood clenched his fists at the moment Julia Roberts uttered his name, stood up, poured himself a glass of brandy, and raised it to the TV screen : "Respect fairness and justice. Any conspiracy is useless in the face of absolute strength."
The Ritz Hotel in Paris, France, in a suite named after Coco Chanel.
"Win, win, win!"
Isabella Adams bouncing barefoot on the cream sofa, disheveled and disheveled with blond hair, looked like she had just gotten out of bed, or hadn't slept at all.
The fact is also true. Last night, she reluctantly rejected a handsome French gentleman's invitation to visit the Champs Elysees at night, and went back to the hotel early and climbed into bed, and got up at three o'clock in the morning—— Horrible jet lag, she shouldn't have chosen this time to come to Paris for vacation - just to watch the live broadcast of the Oscars red carpet show and awards ceremony, to see her favorite actor William Bradley.
Luckily, Isabella Adams' beauty sacrifice paid off handsomely as she saw her favorite actor reach the top!
Thank God, the five specially programmed alarm clocks still woke her up at three o'clock in the morning. If she missed the live TV broadcast and could only find out the news from the newspaper or the Internet tomorrow, she would be devastated!
Staring at the TV, waiting for William Bradley to take the stage to accept the award, Isabella Adams sat in front of the computer and typed on the keyboard. Heart", ridiculed William can only be reduced to accompanying netizens: "Will is the Oscar winner! BITCH!"
London, England, Wandsworth District, in a well-planned single-family house in a very neat and clean community, there is also a movie fan who is constantly typing on the keyboard.
"Tom Wilkinson is an outstanding actor, the representative of British actors in Hollywood, his acting skills deserve an Oscar, there is no doubt about it. However, William Bradley's victory also deserves applause and applause."
The cinephile is a Brit, the quintessential Brit who often laughs at the ignorance of his fraternal country across the ocean, but in a rare case, his stance is less British this time.It can even be said that his attitude is completely biased towards an American actor, not his compatriots.
And he also used the keyboard to write the reason on the Internet: "I have a younger brother who has lived in a nursing home since he was 13 years old - mild schizophrenia, with bipolar disorder, sometimes he is extremely manic, sometimes Depressed enough to hurt himself with a knife - the nursing home didn't cure him, but made him better, so we took him home when he was an adult. To be honest, the first few years were a disaster, maybe here I need to explain the neighborhood we live in, a typical middle-class neighborhood, the residents are very united and exclusive, too many stay-at-home mothers, which means endless snooping and gossip. My brother left home For several years, his return was like readmitting a stranger to the community, and once they figured out what was wrong with him, he was even less welcome. We thought about moving, really, but all the neighbors were A virtue, even including our relatives, colleagues, and friends. They may have a little pity for him, but more of it is discrimination, exclusion, fear and fear."
"It used to be like that and my brother could only feel kindness from his family, but things started to look a little different a few months ago. Neighbors and friends who saw the movie A Beautiful Mind, They came here to apologize to my family, to my brother, saying that their treatment of him was wrong in the past, they did discriminate and prejudice against my brother, but they will never again. They look like Kind of understand the pain my brother went through, the pain my family went through - through a Hollywood movie. Ha, sounds kind of ridiculous, doesn't it? But it's true, and people like that are becoming more and more More and more. Now, my family feels much less pressure and burden, and so does my younger brother, and the external environment is becoming friendly. Although he still has no friends, when he occasionally goes out, he no longer has strange eyes and The avoidance behavior came up and his mental health was getting better and better. I think one day, he'll make friends."
"So, I want a movie like 'A Beautiful Mind' to win, and I want William Bradley to win. If 'Rain Man' changed the way people think about autism, 'The Philadelphia Story' changed things about homosexuality and AIDS." After the appearance of "A Beautiful Mind", it has really improved many people's prejudices against schizophrenia and even mental illness. I know this because my family has really felt this change."
……
The Academy Awards is probably the first reality television show - if you don't count the ones produced in Nazi Germany during World War II - when the camera is on the nominees, it is their moment of success or failure , The test is also the real acting skills of movie stars, as long as they lose their composure a little bit, they will be easily captured by the camera and broadcast to the world.
Few actors are perfect at this moment, Tom Wilkinson is one, and when Julia Roberts pronounces William Brandley's name, he interprets exactly what the lost nominees should be The perfect response is to suppress surprise, smile quickly, clap hard, and cast congratulatory eyes on the winner.
Sean Penn was notoriously irritable when he was young. During the four years of his marriage and divorce with Madonna in the 80s, the news of domestic violence continued. His temper did not change when he got older. Although he applauded with others, his face He was so gloomy that he was almost pulled to the ground, obviously extremely disappointed that he didn't win the award.
The most exaggerated is Will Smith's reaction. Of course, he was very surprised when he heard William's name. He even glanced at Denzel Washington reflexively, but retracted it in less than half a second. out of sight, and was not even captured by the camera.Then he gave a surprised "wow", and quickly laughed, smiling so brightly that his entire upper teeth were exposed, and he and his wife Jada Smith stood up and applauded, chatted with the left and right guests, accompanied by very positive nods and hairs The joy from the heart, as if the winner is his closest friend.
Will Smith's contribution far exceeds that of other nominees, which can be called the textbook-like acting skills of the Oscar accompanying runners. Perhaps it is really just because he has long known that he will definitely not win the award.In stark contrast to him, is Denzel Washington, even the bad-tempered Sean Penn, his performance is better than Denzel Washington.
Denzel Washington was probably too shocked, so shocked that he couldn't think of using acting skills at all, his reaction was completely out of instinctive conditioned reflex - like a stunned plaster statue, his expression was blank for a full three seconds After a few minutes, Denzel Washington directly pulled the corners of his mouth down, frowned and shook his head, and rolled his eyes that couldn't be more obvious-then he may have realized the occasion, and it is more likely that he saw the camera facing him, and turned his eyes halfway His mouth was twisted into a toothy grin, and after smiling at the camera for a second, he quickly clapped his hands hard.If it wasn't for his heavy and fierce applause, he would really look like the other guests.
Following the line of sight of Tom Wilkinson, Sean Penn, Will Smith, Denzel Washington and others, the eyes of the whole world are focused on the middle of the first row of the Kodak Theater, who is about to go on stage , took over the Oscar for Best Actor from Julia Roberts and crowned William Bradley.
……
Boom!
It was like the sound of fireworks exploding in his ears. William used his eyes and ears to distinguish it, only to realize that it was not a sound effect, but all the applause, cheers, discussions, screams, and cheers of the Kodak Theater suddenly mixed and exploded. after the sound.
Everyone was looking at him, after Julia Roberts pronounced his name.
Those gazes, those smiles, those applause, everything is different from before, more attentive, more kind, even more unwilling and jealous.
William wondered if they were all aware of the fact that he really became the youngest winner of the Oscar for Best Actor at the age of 25.To be more precise, it is 24 years and 197 days.No, he didn't calculate it, but the media has already done it for him. The "Los Angeles Times" once said that if William wins the award, it will greatly break the record for the youngest age for winning the Oscar for Best Actor.
"Congratulations, Will!"
As soon as William stood up from his seat, he was hugged by Tobey Maguire in the back row, "This is really great! I'm so proud of you!"
William was almost breathless from the hugging hoop. He remembered that Toby's arms were not so strong before. Perhaps this was one of the benefits left after playing the superhero Spider-Man.A muscle is still a muscle, even if it's built in the gym.
Tobey Maguire just let go of William, Ron Howard's hug came again, then Brian Grazer, producer of A Beautiful Mind, with Peter Jackson and Baz Luhrmann in the back row Standing up and clapping and yelling "Bravo!", Kate Winslet looked eager to join in the hugging William, but she was too far away.
Amon Goffman was standing with his IAA partner, and he was wiping his eyes, and William took another look, ready to keep the scene in his mind so he could use it to poke fun at the Jewish brokers later.
Then he adjusted his bow tie, making sure it wasn't askew in the embrace, before walking to the stage.
Meanwhile, from the crew of "A Beautiful Mind," to the crew of "Lord of the Rings," "Memento," and "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," nominated for Best Art Direction and Best Costume Design, Then there's Steven Spielberg's A.I., Nicole Kidman and Moulin Rouge, Kate Winslet, Tobey Maguire, Ben Fleck, Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench, Christopher Nolan brothers, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, Maggie Smith...all stood up at the same time and gave the warmest Applause.
Yep, not even bad looking Sean Penn and Denzel Washington are not in their seats, they have to follow the masses with everyone already on their feet, if they don't want to be mocked by all the media and lose tomorrow Disrespectful and unmannered words.
The audience at the Kodak Theater stood up, and the applause surged like waves.
The main camera rotated the lens and faithfully recorded this scene.
It is rare in the history of the Oscars for guests to stand and pay tribute, especially when the winners are particularly young.
But it's happening now.Perhaps from another side, it illustrates the fame, word-of-mouth and energy possessed by the name William Bradley in today's Hollywood.
Julia Roberts greeted William after he walked up the steps and gave him a congratulations, a hug and a kiss on the cheek before handing the trophy into his hands.
William stood in front of the microphone, facing the audience, holding an Oscar statuette weighing about 8.5 pounds (3.9 kilograms) in his hand.
God, that feels a lot heavier than 8.5 pounds.
Looking down at the statuette, and then looking up to scan the audience, William licked his lower lip, understanding why all the actors were eager to win an Oscar.
Standing in the resplendent Kodak Theater, under the watchful eyes of more than 3000 key personnel in the Hollywood industry, producers, directors, movie stars, and even competitors.
When the whole world stands up, applauds him, laughs at him, ready to hear his every word
At this moment, he is the center of the whole world, and he seems to be loved by the whole world.
It felt so damn good.
and many more!
When William opened his mouth and was about to say something, he suddenly remembered that he didn't have a complete acceptance speech—because he felt that the chance of winning the award was slim, he didn't prepare in advance, he didn't have a complete manuscript, only a few outlines— —Jesus Christ, looks like he's going to improvise.
"Frankly speaking, I actually sprayed on breath freshener not long ago." William just hesitated, and blurted out a series of witty words: "It's a pity that I only kissed the cheek. It's a pity." After finishing speaking, he held Xiao Jin in both hands Man, turned sideways, really looked at Julia Roberts with a very regretful expression.
Julia Roberts stood by with a look of surprise mixed with surprise, and then she laughed very brightly.Roberts, who has an outstanding talent for comedy, can of course see that William is not really sorry that he didn't kiss her, but is using humor to mobilize the atmosphere, or he forgot his words, or he just wants to make everyone happy.
There was indeed bursts of laughter in the theater, and everyone in the audience was laughing, accompanied by a very loud whistle.
After enlivening the atmosphere, William's last trace of nervousness disappeared, and he said easily: "It feels like I've won the jackpot, and I really am. This trophy is a combination of chance and luck—" Speaking of this, William paused. Standing down, I looked at the guests standing under the stage: "Thank you to everyone who gave me a standing ovation, please sit down now, you have made me feel extraordinarily honored."
Most of the guests sat down with smiles, but some remained standing, like William's friends and those who had worked with him.
William didn't continue to persuade. He knew that Oscar's speech had a time limit. After showing a warm smile to those guests who had been standing, he continued to speak: "Thank you Academy, it is really meaningful to receive this award." Big. Thank you to the other nominees. Thank you Ronald, you are the best director, the best narrator. Thank you John Nash, there is nothing better than a movie prototype to participate in the shooting, you made my performance better True. To everyone involved in the making of A Beautiful Mind, you all deserve credit."
"There are also those who I have no time to name to thank, my family, friends, my agent, publicist, manager, everyone in the team, you have pushed me to do this with support, encouragement, supervision and love. Became a better me, and I love you all too."
William kissed the head of the Oscar statuette: "Now, I am the happiest person in the world, but also the most worried person."
The Kodak Theater fell silent at this unusual turn, with everyone's eyes on the stage, wondering what William was going to say next.To be honest, always hearing the same thank you from the winners, people actually want to hear something different.
"I've heard of an 'Oscar Curse', which refers to the fact that it is difficult for actors who have won Oscars to continue their personal success. Most of them started to decline after winning the award, and some even sank directly to the bottom. To be honest, I don't believe in spells or bad luck or anything like that, even though I did Harry Potter."
Amidst the laughter, William seemed to be very serious: "However, I understand the root cause of the formation of the 'Oscar Curse'-Oscar is the pinnacle of an acting career for any actor, and after reaching the pinnacle, Unless you defend the title, no matter how you choose, the actor is going downhill. It’s like a parabola, and it will naturally fall after the apex. Now that I have climbed to the peak, it is very likely that in the next few years, I will usher in the "Oscar Magic" Curse'——but I want to say that I am not afraid of this. Glory and sinking are precious experiences in life. If you get through it, you can become more mature. I am still very young, and I can probably make movies for at least 50 years. I will Think of the Oscar statuette as a great encouragement and me at 25 as a hero to catch up to. One day, I will be here again. Thank you.”
In the end, William raised the statuette in front of the microphone and turned around in the warm applause of the audience.
……
"The current number of viewers?"
"Fifty four and two million, Director."
The sound of gasping. "Fifty four and two million?"
"No, it's not that number anymore." A somewhat stuttering response: "The current number of viewers is 470 million—90—it's already more than 500 million! 530 million and still rising! I'm afraid I Can't give exact numbers, director, the ratings are changing all the time!"
In a certain floor of the headquarters of the famous market research company AC Nielsen in New York, North America, all the staff members looked at each other in blank dismay, and the collective fell into deep shock.
It's not that they are easily frightened, but that the real-time ratings curve tonight is too volatile. Many people have worked in AC Nielsen for many years, and this is the first time they have seen the ratings of the Oscars ceremony go up and down like a roller coaster.
——Oscar has officially had TV broadcast since the 25th awards ceremony, and AC Nielsen has provided electronic statistical services for Oscar since 1992.Although it cannot be compared with the Super Bowl, the Oscar Awards Ceremony has been the most-watched show at 90:4000 on the east coast of the United States for more than ten years, especially in the mid-1998s, with more than 70 million viewers every year, the highest-rated show. In 7 (the 15th Oscar), in that year, "Titanic", which raked in a box office of 11 million US dollars in North America, won 5725 nominations and finally [-] trophies.When James Cameron held his best picture statuette and yelled "I'MTHE KINGOF THE WORLD! (I am the king of the world!)", the famous line in the movie, the highest number of viewers reached a record-breaking moment [-] million.
The Oscars ceremony of "Titanic" was like the last highlight of TV broadcasting. Since then, there has never been an audience rating that can surpass the record of 1998 million people in 5530, especially in the past three years. , although the number of viewers of the Oscars is more than 4000 million, it is indeed showing a downward trend year by year, such as 99 million in 4700, 00 million in 4600, and less than 4300 million last year.
Thanks to Tom Cruise, the number of viewers at this year's Oscars ceremony was as high as 4820 million at the beginning, but after Tom Cruise finished his speech, it fell to less than 4100 million in a few minutes, and even more in a short while. After several ups and downs, Whoopi Goldberg's joke failed to save the ratings, and the number of viewers was once as low as 3000 million, which created the first heartbeat stimulation for the staff of AC Nielsen and ABC TV.
Fortunately, as the award ceremony was halfway through, that is, when the important awards began to be awarded, the ratings gradually picked up, and occasionally approached 5000 million. After 911/4300, New York unexpectedly appeared at the invitation of the academy—but it generally maintained a viewership of 4500 to [-] million.
The second heartbeat happened when Halle Berry was sealed off. Before the Best Actress award was awarded, the number of viewers instantly soared by 330 million. Go down to more than 800 million!
When the best actor award was approaching, several staff members of AC Nielsen who had been monitoring the data felt that they were going to have a heart attack!
The moment Julia Roberts announced the results, the ratings soared by a quarter!
Yes, that's right, a full quarter!
On average, the ratings in the 56 major markets in the United States have soared from less than 32% to over 40%!
Converted into the number of viewers, there are 1100 million more viewers in an instant!
No wonder the AC Nielsen staff rubbed their eyes the moment they saw the data!
What's even more frightening is that the ratings data didn't stop directly at this surprising apex, but continued to climb upwards!
Fifty four million!When Denzel Washington rolled his eyes unabashedly.
Fifty-five million!When the Kodak Theater rose, William Bradley walked to the stage amid cheers and applause.
Fifty-six million!When Julia Roberts handed the Oscar statuette to the winner.
Fifty-seven million!When William Bradley began his Oscar winner acceptance speech.
"Director, the number of viewers has reached 730 million!" AC Nielsen's staff reported while busy recording: "Although the jump is not as dramatic as before, the number of viewers continues to rise, and the final figure cannot be estimated. The only thing that is certain is that the record for the highest number of viewers in an Oscar telecast has been broken!"
"Let's feed back the data to ABC TV." The supervisor said, "By the way, congratulations, a new Oscar ratings record has been born."
ABC TV.
In the studio of the Oscar Awards Ceremony, dozens of TV screens simultaneously broadcast the movements of every part of the Kodak Theater, and even the reactions of the guests in the upstairs boxes were watched by cameras.Of course, the content on the main screen at this time was William Bradley who was about to finish his speech.
When AC Nielsen had just synchronized the ratings data, the employees of the ABC TV live broadcast were dumbfounded—5780 million people.And this number makes many people almost dare not believe their eyes.
The director of the ABC TV station who was in charge of the live broadcast of the award ceremony was even more excited, and almost couldn't hold back his mood and jumped up on the spot.
Although the average ratings of this year's Oscars may not be as good as the 70th, with this figure, even if ABC raises advertising fees by half next year, sponsors will still flock to the Oscars with checks, and as the director of the awards ceremony, maybe He will get a large bonus at the end of the year, and he will continue to be in charge of Oscar next year.
The previous record for the highest number of viewers at an Oscar moment belonged to James Cameron, and from now on it belongs to William Bradley. The director of ABC TV station thinks, and in the context of the rapid development of the Internet, the ratings of traditional TV programs will gradually decline. This is almost a recognized fact. From this perspective, maybe this record will really be unprecedented. comer.
Looking at the main screen, the director suddenly thought, William Bradley participated in the three Oscars, it seems that the ratings of the three Oscars were all in the top ten in history?
"It's been a minute and a half, do you need to remind him on the teleprompter?" The staff on the live broadcast line turned to ask the director, while their hands were still on the operation panel with countless buttons, ready to switch screens at any time.
——Although the regulations do not limit the speaking time, Oscar encourages all winners to take the stage to deliver their acceptance speeches. It is best to control the time for about 1 minute, like the kind that takes out a note as soon as they come on stage and starts to read a long list of thanks The winner is the least popular.Generally speaking, if the winners speak for too long, the teleprompter directly in front of the stage will display subtitles to remind them to finish quickly. Usually at this time, the winners will also end their acceptance speeches quickly and wittily.
An exception is last year's Julia Roberts. When the big-mouthed beauty won the actress, she was so excited that she thanked a lot of people on stage over and over again. After more than four minutes, the director almost sent someone to invite her down.
"No need, let's talk about it in 3 minutes." The director of ABC knew exactly who was responsible for the soaring ratings.
But just as he finished speaking, the main screen showed that Bradley had finished his speech, and after raising the statuette to the camera, he turned and walked backstage.
The employee pressed his finger on the operator button and was about to switch the camera on the main screen, but the director stopped him behind him. "Don't switch yet. Camera No. 1, continue to follow William Bradley." He ordered, waiting for the camera to follow William and Julia Roberts until the two disappeared at the entrance of the backstage passage, then nodded and said : "Okay, cut to Whoopi Goldberg."
……
Kodak Theater.
The awards ceremony is already going on the last and most important part - the presentation of the best film, but off the stage, there are still some people whose thoughts are still immersed in the previous awards, and they can't recover for a long time.
Harvey Weinstein’s complexion is extremely bad, he has a hunch, no, he is [-]% sure, he has been in the Oscars for several years, and this time he encountered Waterloo——Of the ten nominations for Miramax, only A best supporting actor has been harvested, but the best actor and actress and even a supporting actress have been miscalculated!You know, he has double insurance for Best Supporting Actress, and three insurances for Best Actress!With painstaking planning, he is almost sure to win!Hell, he booked a five-star hotel to celebrate Judi Dench or Sissy Spacek, and still gets cut off by Halle Berry!Not to mention the best actor, best picture and other awards that he is not sure about!
The last time Harvey Weinstein received such a cold reception at the Oscars was when "Pulp Fiction" was nominated for 67 Oscars at the 7th Oscar but only won one Best Original Screenplay Award-in 1995, "Pulp Fiction" The fiasco had Harvey Weinstein vowing to be an Oscar manipulator who can rig the awards.He did too.And just a few years later, his tricks started not working.
Even if he didn't talk to other people around him, Harvey Weinstein could feel how much glee was in those people's eyes, as if laughing loudly, "Weinstein is finally gone!", and all this It made him feel angry but helpless.
And fear.
Although the face is still deep and calm, Harvey Weinstein has a little fear in his heart. He is afraid that the dislike of him by the academy will continue, and he is afraid that he will fall out of favor with Oscar for a long time—— This made him regret even more, why did he start a war with "A Beautiful Mind"?Why antagonize William Bradley?
Another one with very violent mood swings is Tom Cruise, the flames of sourness are burning in his chest, and now he completely feels that fate is unfair.
William Bradley was the illegitimate son of God, and he lived up to his name.
After a suspenseful pause, Julia Roberts finally announced the Oscar for Best Actor, and turned the card over and showed it to everyone—the white card is in the middle, clearly printed In two lines, neither Denzel Washington nor Sean Penn, but very eye-catching "William Bradley" and "A Beautiful Mind".
Some people were fantasizing a second ago, hoping it was Julia Roberts playing a prank, or an awards show.
——The Oscar awards ceremony is a live broadcast, and no matter how rigorous the live broadcast is, there is a certain chance of mistakes. In fact, as early as the 1964 Oscars, there was an award-winning incident. When Sammy Davis Jr. presented the best soundtrack award , having been given the wrong envelope, gave John Edison of Tom Jones what should have been awarded to André Previn, who composed the score for "Girls Emma," but he quickly responded with humor. It was remedied by means, and the award was re-presented with a pair of glasses on purpose, which meant that this time there would never be a mistake in pronouncing the name again.
But at this moment, the black-and-white award card in Julia Roberts's hand was clearly captured by the camera, and there was no possibility of fraud, which completely shattered the dreams of those who had unrealistic ideas.
No.70 The winner of the four Academy Awards is William Bradley!
The youngest nominee got the last laugh instead!
Canada, Australia, China, Japan, the United Kingdom, France, Brazil, South Africa... Almost at the same time, Julia Roberts announced the winner of the Best Actor award, which was broadcast to the TV screens of viewers in nearly [-] countries around the world through satellite signals superior.
At this moment, I don't know how many William Bradley fans are completely crazy.
And on the Internet, netizens have already been frying the pot, English, Chinese, French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Dutch, even Hebrew and Indonesian, dozens of languages are all discussing the same thing, then This is the birth of a new Oscar winner.
……
Manhattan, New York, on the right side of Washington Square, in the New York University Goddard dormitory building.
"Will won! Ha, I knew he'd win!"
Scott Evans jumped up from the dormitory bed with a carp, and performed a few wild dance steps in a small space. After venting his excitement a little bit, he found his mobile phone and quickly dialed a number: " The winner of the Oscar has just been announced—" As soon as the call was connected, he said before the other party could speak: "Quickly guess who it is, Chris, this time we bet a hundred dollars!"
"Stop asking stupid questions, Scott, like I'm not watching TV." Chris Evans on the other end of the phone wasn't hooked at all: "Also, you lost five bets on the Golden Globes last time." The ten knives haven’t been given to me yet.”
Scott Evans identified it carefully, and sure enough, he heard thunderous applause from the TV set through the receiver.
"Boring. Thought you were too busy to watch TV during filming." Scott Evans complained, then excitedly said: "If I send Will a congratulatory message now, he will see Is it?" After imagining that he was the first person to congratulate William for winning the Oscar, and the other party's reaction after seeing the email, Scott's cheeks were flushed.
"Will's phone must be full of emails by now, and I think he'll be too busy to check his email tonight, maybe you can call him directly tomorrow, Will never fails to pick up friends Telephone."
Scott Evans did have William's private cell phone number. "Understood, I will call again tomorrow morning." He said in a low voice, but he had to admit that his brother was right.Then Scott calculated the time difference between New York and Los Angeles in his mind. New York is now more than one o'clock in the morning, and Los Angeles is more than three hours earlier. That is to say, if he calls William eight hours later, he should be the first to congratulate William. one of his people.
Well, this is actually even more exciting, eight hours later, he will be able to hear the voice of the new Oscar winner!
In the Bel Air district of Los Angeles, an old house built on the top of a hill near USC is brightly lit.
It's already the usual bedtime, but Clint Eastwood is still watching TV. As a filmmaker, he certainly can't miss the annual event in Hollywood. Moreover, he wants to know the choice made by Oscar What is it? It has been softened by various sugar-coated shells, it is credulous to the media mouthpiece bought by speculators, it is to succumb to the political pressure exerted by some organizations... Or, it still retains a little professional ethics and listens to the heart choose.
To be honest, even though Clint Eastwood has persuaded many friends with the same values and the neutrals in the academy not to be easily influenced by the outside world, he is still not sure about the final result.
until now.Clint Eastwood clenched his fists at the moment Julia Roberts uttered his name, stood up, poured himself a glass of brandy, and raised it to the TV screen : "Respect fairness and justice. Any conspiracy is useless in the face of absolute strength."
The Ritz Hotel in Paris, France, in a suite named after Coco Chanel.
"Win, win, win!"
Isabella Adams bouncing barefoot on the cream sofa, disheveled and disheveled with blond hair, looked like she had just gotten out of bed, or hadn't slept at all.
The fact is also true. Last night, she reluctantly rejected a handsome French gentleman's invitation to visit the Champs Elysees at night, and went back to the hotel early and climbed into bed, and got up at three o'clock in the morning—— Horrible jet lag, she shouldn't have chosen this time to come to Paris for vacation - just to watch the live broadcast of the Oscars red carpet show and awards ceremony, to see her favorite actor William Bradley.
Luckily, Isabella Adams' beauty sacrifice paid off handsomely as she saw her favorite actor reach the top!
Thank God, the five specially programmed alarm clocks still woke her up at three o'clock in the morning. If she missed the live TV broadcast and could only find out the news from the newspaper or the Internet tomorrow, she would be devastated!
Staring at the TV, waiting for William Bradley to take the stage to accept the award, Isabella Adams sat in front of the computer and typed on the keyboard. Heart", ridiculed William can only be reduced to accompanying netizens: "Will is the Oscar winner! BITCH!"
London, England, Wandsworth District, in a well-planned single-family house in a very neat and clean community, there is also a movie fan who is constantly typing on the keyboard.
"Tom Wilkinson is an outstanding actor, the representative of British actors in Hollywood, his acting skills deserve an Oscar, there is no doubt about it. However, William Bradley's victory also deserves applause and applause."
The cinephile is a Brit, the quintessential Brit who often laughs at the ignorance of his fraternal country across the ocean, but in a rare case, his stance is less British this time.It can even be said that his attitude is completely biased towards an American actor, not his compatriots.
And he also used the keyboard to write the reason on the Internet: "I have a younger brother who has lived in a nursing home since he was 13 years old - mild schizophrenia, with bipolar disorder, sometimes he is extremely manic, sometimes Depressed enough to hurt himself with a knife - the nursing home didn't cure him, but made him better, so we took him home when he was an adult. To be honest, the first few years were a disaster, maybe here I need to explain the neighborhood we live in, a typical middle-class neighborhood, the residents are very united and exclusive, too many stay-at-home mothers, which means endless snooping and gossip. My brother left home For several years, his return was like readmitting a stranger to the community, and once they figured out what was wrong with him, he was even less welcome. We thought about moving, really, but all the neighbors were A virtue, even including our relatives, colleagues, and friends. They may have a little pity for him, but more of it is discrimination, exclusion, fear and fear."
"It used to be like that and my brother could only feel kindness from his family, but things started to look a little different a few months ago. Neighbors and friends who saw the movie A Beautiful Mind, They came here to apologize to my family, to my brother, saying that their treatment of him was wrong in the past, they did discriminate and prejudice against my brother, but they will never again. They look like Kind of understand the pain my brother went through, the pain my family went through - through a Hollywood movie. Ha, sounds kind of ridiculous, doesn't it? But it's true, and people like that are becoming more and more More and more. Now, my family feels much less pressure and burden, and so does my younger brother, and the external environment is becoming friendly. Although he still has no friends, when he occasionally goes out, he no longer has strange eyes and The avoidance behavior came up and his mental health was getting better and better. I think one day, he'll make friends."
"So, I want a movie like 'A Beautiful Mind' to win, and I want William Bradley to win. If 'Rain Man' changed the way people think about autism, 'The Philadelphia Story' changed things about homosexuality and AIDS." After the appearance of "A Beautiful Mind", it has really improved many people's prejudices against schizophrenia and even mental illness. I know this because my family has really felt this change."
……
The Academy Awards is probably the first reality television show - if you don't count the ones produced in Nazi Germany during World War II - when the camera is on the nominees, it is their moment of success or failure , The test is also the real acting skills of movie stars, as long as they lose their composure a little bit, they will be easily captured by the camera and broadcast to the world.
Few actors are perfect at this moment, Tom Wilkinson is one, and when Julia Roberts pronounces William Brandley's name, he interprets exactly what the lost nominees should be The perfect response is to suppress surprise, smile quickly, clap hard, and cast congratulatory eyes on the winner.
Sean Penn was notoriously irritable when he was young. During the four years of his marriage and divorce with Madonna in the 80s, the news of domestic violence continued. His temper did not change when he got older. Although he applauded with others, his face He was so gloomy that he was almost pulled to the ground, obviously extremely disappointed that he didn't win the award.
The most exaggerated is Will Smith's reaction. Of course, he was very surprised when he heard William's name. He even glanced at Denzel Washington reflexively, but retracted it in less than half a second. out of sight, and was not even captured by the camera.Then he gave a surprised "wow", and quickly laughed, smiling so brightly that his entire upper teeth were exposed, and he and his wife Jada Smith stood up and applauded, chatted with the left and right guests, accompanied by very positive nods and hairs The joy from the heart, as if the winner is his closest friend.
Will Smith's contribution far exceeds that of other nominees, which can be called the textbook-like acting skills of the Oscar accompanying runners. Perhaps it is really just because he has long known that he will definitely not win the award.In stark contrast to him, is Denzel Washington, even the bad-tempered Sean Penn, his performance is better than Denzel Washington.
Denzel Washington was probably too shocked, so shocked that he couldn't think of using acting skills at all, his reaction was completely out of instinctive conditioned reflex - like a stunned plaster statue, his expression was blank for a full three seconds After a few minutes, Denzel Washington directly pulled the corners of his mouth down, frowned and shook his head, and rolled his eyes that couldn't be more obvious-then he may have realized the occasion, and it is more likely that he saw the camera facing him, and turned his eyes halfway His mouth was twisted into a toothy grin, and after smiling at the camera for a second, he quickly clapped his hands hard.If it wasn't for his heavy and fierce applause, he would really look like the other guests.
Following the line of sight of Tom Wilkinson, Sean Penn, Will Smith, Denzel Washington and others, the eyes of the whole world are focused on the middle of the first row of the Kodak Theater, who is about to go on stage , took over the Oscar for Best Actor from Julia Roberts and crowned William Bradley.
……
Boom!
It was like the sound of fireworks exploding in his ears. William used his eyes and ears to distinguish it, only to realize that it was not a sound effect, but all the applause, cheers, discussions, screams, and cheers of the Kodak Theater suddenly mixed and exploded. after the sound.
Everyone was looking at him, after Julia Roberts pronounced his name.
Those gazes, those smiles, those applause, everything is different from before, more attentive, more kind, even more unwilling and jealous.
William wondered if they were all aware of the fact that he really became the youngest winner of the Oscar for Best Actor at the age of 25.To be more precise, it is 24 years and 197 days.No, he didn't calculate it, but the media has already done it for him. The "Los Angeles Times" once said that if William wins the award, it will greatly break the record for the youngest age for winning the Oscar for Best Actor.
"Congratulations, Will!"
As soon as William stood up from his seat, he was hugged by Tobey Maguire in the back row, "This is really great! I'm so proud of you!"
William was almost breathless from the hugging hoop. He remembered that Toby's arms were not so strong before. Perhaps this was one of the benefits left after playing the superhero Spider-Man.A muscle is still a muscle, even if it's built in the gym.
Tobey Maguire just let go of William, Ron Howard's hug came again, then Brian Grazer, producer of A Beautiful Mind, with Peter Jackson and Baz Luhrmann in the back row Standing up and clapping and yelling "Bravo!", Kate Winslet looked eager to join in the hugging William, but she was too far away.
Amon Goffman was standing with his IAA partner, and he was wiping his eyes, and William took another look, ready to keep the scene in his mind so he could use it to poke fun at the Jewish brokers later.
Then he adjusted his bow tie, making sure it wasn't askew in the embrace, before walking to the stage.
Meanwhile, from the crew of "A Beautiful Mind," to the crew of "Lord of the Rings," "Memento," and "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," nominated for Best Art Direction and Best Costume Design, Then there's Steven Spielberg's A.I., Nicole Kidman and Moulin Rouge, Kate Winslet, Tobey Maguire, Ben Fleck, Nicole Kidman, Judi Dench, Christopher Nolan brothers, Jude Law, Gwyneth Paltrow, Maggie Smith...all stood up at the same time and gave the warmest Applause.
Yep, not even bad looking Sean Penn and Denzel Washington are not in their seats, they have to follow the masses with everyone already on their feet, if they don't want to be mocked by all the media and lose tomorrow Disrespectful and unmannered words.
The audience at the Kodak Theater stood up, and the applause surged like waves.
The main camera rotated the lens and faithfully recorded this scene.
It is rare in the history of the Oscars for guests to stand and pay tribute, especially when the winners are particularly young.
But it's happening now.Perhaps from another side, it illustrates the fame, word-of-mouth and energy possessed by the name William Bradley in today's Hollywood.
Julia Roberts greeted William after he walked up the steps and gave him a congratulations, a hug and a kiss on the cheek before handing the trophy into his hands.
William stood in front of the microphone, facing the audience, holding an Oscar statuette weighing about 8.5 pounds (3.9 kilograms) in his hand.
God, that feels a lot heavier than 8.5 pounds.
Looking down at the statuette, and then looking up to scan the audience, William licked his lower lip, understanding why all the actors were eager to win an Oscar.
Standing in the resplendent Kodak Theater, under the watchful eyes of more than 3000 key personnel in the Hollywood industry, producers, directors, movie stars, and even competitors.
When the whole world stands up, applauds him, laughs at him, ready to hear his every word
At this moment, he is the center of the whole world, and he seems to be loved by the whole world.
It felt so damn good.
and many more!
When William opened his mouth and was about to say something, he suddenly remembered that he didn't have a complete acceptance speech—because he felt that the chance of winning the award was slim, he didn't prepare in advance, he didn't have a complete manuscript, only a few outlines— —Jesus Christ, looks like he's going to improvise.
"Frankly speaking, I actually sprayed on breath freshener not long ago." William just hesitated, and blurted out a series of witty words: "It's a pity that I only kissed the cheek. It's a pity." After finishing speaking, he held Xiao Jin in both hands Man, turned sideways, really looked at Julia Roberts with a very regretful expression.
Julia Roberts stood by with a look of surprise mixed with surprise, and then she laughed very brightly.Roberts, who has an outstanding talent for comedy, can of course see that William is not really sorry that he didn't kiss her, but is using humor to mobilize the atmosphere, or he forgot his words, or he just wants to make everyone happy.
There was indeed bursts of laughter in the theater, and everyone in the audience was laughing, accompanied by a very loud whistle.
After enlivening the atmosphere, William's last trace of nervousness disappeared, and he said easily: "It feels like I've won the jackpot, and I really am. This trophy is a combination of chance and luck—" Speaking of this, William paused. Standing down, I looked at the guests standing under the stage: "Thank you to everyone who gave me a standing ovation, please sit down now, you have made me feel extraordinarily honored."
Most of the guests sat down with smiles, but some remained standing, like William's friends and those who had worked with him.
William didn't continue to persuade. He knew that Oscar's speech had a time limit. After showing a warm smile to those guests who had been standing, he continued to speak: "Thank you Academy, it is really meaningful to receive this award." Big. Thank you to the other nominees. Thank you Ronald, you are the best director, the best narrator. Thank you John Nash, there is nothing better than a movie prototype to participate in the shooting, you made my performance better True. To everyone involved in the making of A Beautiful Mind, you all deserve credit."
"There are also those who I have no time to name to thank, my family, friends, my agent, publicist, manager, everyone in the team, you have pushed me to do this with support, encouragement, supervision and love. Became a better me, and I love you all too."
William kissed the head of the Oscar statuette: "Now, I am the happiest person in the world, but also the most worried person."
The Kodak Theater fell silent at this unusual turn, with everyone's eyes on the stage, wondering what William was going to say next.To be honest, always hearing the same thank you from the winners, people actually want to hear something different.
"I've heard of an 'Oscar Curse', which refers to the fact that it is difficult for actors who have won Oscars to continue their personal success. Most of them started to decline after winning the award, and some even sank directly to the bottom. To be honest, I don't believe in spells or bad luck or anything like that, even though I did Harry Potter."
Amidst the laughter, William seemed to be very serious: "However, I understand the root cause of the formation of the 'Oscar Curse'-Oscar is the pinnacle of an acting career for any actor, and after reaching the pinnacle, Unless you defend the title, no matter how you choose, the actor is going downhill. It’s like a parabola, and it will naturally fall after the apex. Now that I have climbed to the peak, it is very likely that in the next few years, I will usher in the "Oscar Magic" Curse'——but I want to say that I am not afraid of this. Glory and sinking are precious experiences in life. If you get through it, you can become more mature. I am still very young, and I can probably make movies for at least 50 years. I will Think of the Oscar statuette as a great encouragement and me at 25 as a hero to catch up to. One day, I will be here again. Thank you.”
In the end, William raised the statuette in front of the microphone and turned around in the warm applause of the audience.
……
"The current number of viewers?"
"Fifty four and two million, Director."
The sound of gasping. "Fifty four and two million?"
"No, it's not that number anymore." A somewhat stuttering response: "The current number of viewers is 470 million—90—it's already more than 500 million! 530 million and still rising! I'm afraid I Can't give exact numbers, director, the ratings are changing all the time!"
In a certain floor of the headquarters of the famous market research company AC Nielsen in New York, North America, all the staff members looked at each other in blank dismay, and the collective fell into deep shock.
It's not that they are easily frightened, but that the real-time ratings curve tonight is too volatile. Many people have worked in AC Nielsen for many years, and this is the first time they have seen the ratings of the Oscars ceremony go up and down like a roller coaster.
——Oscar has officially had TV broadcast since the 25th awards ceremony, and AC Nielsen has provided electronic statistical services for Oscar since 1992.Although it cannot be compared with the Super Bowl, the Oscar Awards Ceremony has been the most-watched show at 90:4000 on the east coast of the United States for more than ten years, especially in the mid-1998s, with more than 70 million viewers every year, the highest-rated show. In 7 (the 15th Oscar), in that year, "Titanic", which raked in a box office of 11 million US dollars in North America, won 5725 nominations and finally [-] trophies.When James Cameron held his best picture statuette and yelled "I'MTHE KINGOF THE WORLD! (I am the king of the world!)", the famous line in the movie, the highest number of viewers reached a record-breaking moment [-] million.
The Oscars ceremony of "Titanic" was like the last highlight of TV broadcasting. Since then, there has never been an audience rating that can surpass the record of 1998 million people in 5530, especially in the past three years. , although the number of viewers of the Oscars is more than 4000 million, it is indeed showing a downward trend year by year, such as 99 million in 4700, 00 million in 4600, and less than 4300 million last year.
Thanks to Tom Cruise, the number of viewers at this year's Oscars ceremony was as high as 4820 million at the beginning, but after Tom Cruise finished his speech, it fell to less than 4100 million in a few minutes, and even more in a short while. After several ups and downs, Whoopi Goldberg's joke failed to save the ratings, and the number of viewers was once as low as 3000 million, which created the first heartbeat stimulation for the staff of AC Nielsen and ABC TV.
Fortunately, as the award ceremony was halfway through, that is, when the important awards began to be awarded, the ratings gradually picked up, and occasionally approached 5000 million. After 911/4300, New York unexpectedly appeared at the invitation of the academy—but it generally maintained a viewership of 4500 to [-] million.
The second heartbeat happened when Halle Berry was sealed off. Before the Best Actress award was awarded, the number of viewers instantly soared by 330 million. Go down to more than 800 million!
When the best actor award was approaching, several staff members of AC Nielsen who had been monitoring the data felt that they were going to have a heart attack!
The moment Julia Roberts announced the results, the ratings soared by a quarter!
Yes, that's right, a full quarter!
On average, the ratings in the 56 major markets in the United States have soared from less than 32% to over 40%!
Converted into the number of viewers, there are 1100 million more viewers in an instant!
No wonder the AC Nielsen staff rubbed their eyes the moment they saw the data!
What's even more frightening is that the ratings data didn't stop directly at this surprising apex, but continued to climb upwards!
Fifty four million!When Denzel Washington rolled his eyes unabashedly.
Fifty-five million!When the Kodak Theater rose, William Bradley walked to the stage amid cheers and applause.
Fifty-six million!When Julia Roberts handed the Oscar statuette to the winner.
Fifty-seven million!When William Bradley began his Oscar winner acceptance speech.
"Director, the number of viewers has reached 730 million!" AC Nielsen's staff reported while busy recording: "Although the jump is not as dramatic as before, the number of viewers continues to rise, and the final figure cannot be estimated. The only thing that is certain is that the record for the highest number of viewers in an Oscar telecast has been broken!"
"Let's feed back the data to ABC TV." The supervisor said, "By the way, congratulations, a new Oscar ratings record has been born."
ABC TV.
In the studio of the Oscar Awards Ceremony, dozens of TV screens simultaneously broadcast the movements of every part of the Kodak Theater, and even the reactions of the guests in the upstairs boxes were watched by cameras.Of course, the content on the main screen at this time was William Bradley who was about to finish his speech.
When AC Nielsen had just synchronized the ratings data, the employees of the ABC TV live broadcast were dumbfounded—5780 million people.And this number makes many people almost dare not believe their eyes.
The director of the ABC TV station who was in charge of the live broadcast of the award ceremony was even more excited, and almost couldn't hold back his mood and jumped up on the spot.
Although the average ratings of this year's Oscars may not be as good as the 70th, with this figure, even if ABC raises advertising fees by half next year, sponsors will still flock to the Oscars with checks, and as the director of the awards ceremony, maybe He will get a large bonus at the end of the year, and he will continue to be in charge of Oscar next year.
The previous record for the highest number of viewers at an Oscar moment belonged to James Cameron, and from now on it belongs to William Bradley. The director of ABC TV station thinks, and in the context of the rapid development of the Internet, the ratings of traditional TV programs will gradually decline. This is almost a recognized fact. From this perspective, maybe this record will really be unprecedented. comer.
Looking at the main screen, the director suddenly thought, William Bradley participated in the three Oscars, it seems that the ratings of the three Oscars were all in the top ten in history?
"It's been a minute and a half, do you need to remind him on the teleprompter?" The staff on the live broadcast line turned to ask the director, while their hands were still on the operation panel with countless buttons, ready to switch screens at any time.
——Although the regulations do not limit the speaking time, Oscar encourages all winners to take the stage to deliver their acceptance speeches. It is best to control the time for about 1 minute, like the kind that takes out a note as soon as they come on stage and starts to read a long list of thanks The winner is the least popular.Generally speaking, if the winners speak for too long, the teleprompter directly in front of the stage will display subtitles to remind them to finish quickly. Usually at this time, the winners will also end their acceptance speeches quickly and wittily.
An exception is last year's Julia Roberts. When the big-mouthed beauty won the actress, she was so excited that she thanked a lot of people on stage over and over again. After more than four minutes, the director almost sent someone to invite her down.
"No need, let's talk about it in 3 minutes." The director of ABC knew exactly who was responsible for the soaring ratings.
But just as he finished speaking, the main screen showed that Bradley had finished his speech, and after raising the statuette to the camera, he turned and walked backstage.
The employee pressed his finger on the operator button and was about to switch the camera on the main screen, but the director stopped him behind him. "Don't switch yet. Camera No. 1, continue to follow William Bradley." He ordered, waiting for the camera to follow William and Julia Roberts until the two disappeared at the entrance of the backstage passage, then nodded and said : "Okay, cut to Whoopi Goldberg."
……
Kodak Theater.
The awards ceremony is already going on the last and most important part - the presentation of the best film, but off the stage, there are still some people whose thoughts are still immersed in the previous awards, and they can't recover for a long time.
Harvey Weinstein’s complexion is extremely bad, he has a hunch, no, he is [-]% sure, he has been in the Oscars for several years, and this time he encountered Waterloo——Of the ten nominations for Miramax, only A best supporting actor has been harvested, but the best actor and actress and even a supporting actress have been miscalculated!You know, he has double insurance for Best Supporting Actress, and three insurances for Best Actress!With painstaking planning, he is almost sure to win!Hell, he booked a five-star hotel to celebrate Judi Dench or Sissy Spacek, and still gets cut off by Halle Berry!Not to mention the best actor, best picture and other awards that he is not sure about!
The last time Harvey Weinstein received such a cold reception at the Oscars was when "Pulp Fiction" was nominated for 67 Oscars at the 7th Oscar but only won one Best Original Screenplay Award-in 1995, "Pulp Fiction" The fiasco had Harvey Weinstein vowing to be an Oscar manipulator who can rig the awards.He did too.And just a few years later, his tricks started not working.
Even if he didn't talk to other people around him, Harvey Weinstein could feel how much glee was in those people's eyes, as if laughing loudly, "Weinstein is finally gone!", and all this It made him feel angry but helpless.
And fear.
Although the face is still deep and calm, Harvey Weinstein has a little fear in his heart. He is afraid that the dislike of him by the academy will continue, and he is afraid that he will fall out of favor with Oscar for a long time—— This made him regret even more, why did he start a war with "A Beautiful Mind"?Why antagonize William Bradley?
Another one with very violent mood swings is Tom Cruise, the flames of sourness are burning in his chest, and now he completely feels that fate is unfair.
William Bradley was the illegitimate son of God, and he lived up to his name.
