super actress

Chapter 196

No matter how many guests in the audience will be really moved by this speech, everyone can't help but applaud.

Rhea Noren not only pulls the gauntlet of misery, but also shifts the pressure the film is expected to carry onto herself, making it impossible to blame her too harshly.

It's certainly not the best speech at the Golden Globes, but it's definitely one of the smartest.

Even the old foxes in Hollywood can't be moved and sympathized, but they are willing to applaud Rhea's means and courage.People in the industry are like this, I am afraid that the audience before the live broadcast has already shed tears with empathy.

"Bravo! Ten!"

Suddenly there was a loud cheering female voice, which caught Rhea's attention.But when she scanned the audience, she only saw a group of men in neat suits in the front row. She raised her eyebrows slightly, and walked down the stage with the director and producer amid thunderous applause.

Anthony Minghella clenched his arms when he helped Rhea, and he muttered: "You should really read the manuscript for me, let me make preparations in advance, I almost cried on stage just now."

He was most moved by Rhea's speech, and also the most moving.

Rhea patted Anthony's hand lightly, and the slender and sensitive artist had a nervous attack, making Rhea the one to be relied on.Fortunately, when he got off stage, Anthony was back to normal.

Otherwise, from their gender, age difference, and the status difference between actors and directors, it will definitely cause a strong contrast.

After receiving successive congratulations and cheers from the crew of "The Talented Ripley" and "The Lord of the Rings", Rhea and Gene Siskel who came over to congratulate each other hugged each other face to face.

The old film critic who accepted Rhea's invitation letter smiled: "Congratulations. The movie deserves this, and you deserve all of this."

"Thank you Gene, I couldn't have done this without your support."

Rhea thanked again, she had already expressed her thanks on the phone, she mentioned it once in the gratitude list on stage, and now it is a solemn thank you face to face.

After all, it was a fateful friendship, they already called each other by first name.

Gene Siskel raised his hand and tapped his chest. He half smiled and said, "Okay, stop, don't thank me anymore. Rhea, without you, I wouldn't be able to survive today."

It was an honor for him to witness Rhea's re-establishment in Hollywood, she's back, and she's back with glory!

Likewise, he was glad that he could really help Rhea.he

I realized the promise I made in my heart to repay Rhea.

Although Rhea never asked for anything.

But he can't help it.

Rhea wanted to say something, but Gene Siskel quickly interrupted: "My fault! Tonight is a night of celebration, forget about those bad things.

We should all enjoy the rest of the dinner party. "

"You're right, Gene." Rhea smiled and continued according to Gene's words, "Now is indeed the time to enjoy."

When Gene Siskel left, the smile in Rhea's eyes faded.

In this relaxed moment, Rhea still showed a real emotion-she was not happy.

She herself knew it was unreasonable.

Everything went as planned by the team, and even unexpectedly harvested the award. If Rhea expressed a little bit of dissatisfaction, the others would feel ashamed.

So Rhea didn't let her emotions get out.

As the host on stage finished his speech, the Golden Globe Awards ceremony finally came to an end.

The excitement of the NBC staff couldn't be suppressed backstage. Taking advantage of the end, Rhea came over and made a "2" gesture. "The maximum number of simultaneous viewers of the live broadcast is 2000 million!"

"An average of 500 million people!"

He shouted: "Hahaha! Congratulations to all the winners, and blessings to everyone who did not win the award. It is you who have achieved the 57th Golden Globe Awards together!"

The NBC anchor raised his hands to everyone, but a closer look revealed that he was addressing Rhea.

When Rhea lost the best actress award, ratings continued to soar until "The Talented Ripley" won best picture in a drama category, closing with a record-breaking 2000 million horrific figures.

Seeing that he was so excited that he lost his composure, Rhea's assistant, Home Darke, hurriedly pulled him behind the scenes and brought him back.

From beginning to end, Rhea kept smiling and didn't answer.

After the award ceremony, the dinner began slowly.

There's no shortage of space at the Hilton, with a ready-to-go party space right next door, with drinks, snacks, deck settings, and more.

Formally dressed attendants stood waiting in the corner, and the record player played soft and soothing background music in an artificial mode.

On this occasion, Rhea couldn't escape the siege of the crowd at all, and she couldn't avoid it either.

"I guess you've heard enough of that tonight, but I have to say, congratulations, Rhea!" Julia Roberts approached with a smile.

This time Rhea took the initiative to greet her: "Don't say that, I won't be bothered by such kind words."

She said: "Thank you

Your discontinued pillow saved my night.I asked Holm to clean it up and return it to you later. "

Julia laughed: "You're welcome! I hope it gets some good luck."

"Notting Hill" performed well at the box office, but experienced ups and downs in the awards.Both Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant stopped short of nominations.The judges of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association still prefer works with deep expression——

Even for comedy/musical movies, it's still so harsh.

It seems that they still only dismissed "Notting Hill" as a good romance film.

If she doesn't want to be stuck in a romance movie forever, Julia Roberts needs to go one step further.

Julia continued to smile: "Of course, I know it's not just luck. No one in Hollywood can rely on luck to succeed. Rhea, your success can only show that you are excellent.

I admire it. "

Rhea shook her head, "I have only acted in a few works, Julia, you are the senior I need to match, I..."

"Just call me Julie, honey."

"Okay, Julie."

Rhea paused for a moment, and Julia Roberts continued: "You will have a lot of works soon, Rhea, and the next film dates will be sent to you like snowflakes.

I heard that you have a series of movie plans in the future, your resume may surpass mine soon, haha. "

Julia stopped appropriately: "Sorry, don't mind if I talk about this."

"Of course, I don't mind." The expression on Rhea's face did not change, she took the initiative to open the topic: "We are still trying to communicate with those big companies, you know the problems of those big companies, alas, this gives me a headache... "

"Oh, I see, it must be hard."

Julia revealed very sincerely: "I know some friends, if you need help, just ask me."

This is true.Her two consecutive "Captain Hook" and "My Best Friend's Wedding" were both produced and distributed by Columbia Pictures, and "Notting Hill" is even more invested by Universal. Julia has worked closely with Universal this year.

Rhea knows what Julia Roberts means, and she wants to know Rhea's movie plans.

But Rhea still obeyed the other party's wishes and expressed her gratitude.And she can indeed take advantage of this to share the pressure of communication.

"That would be great, please do give me the contact information. Home will be relieved. Keep in touch, Julie."

"Of course, of course!"

They looked at each other very friendly and smiled, and then they were interrupted by the man's light cough

: "Am I bothering you? Sorry ladies, but it's dance time. No talk about work."

Hugh Grant offered an arm, a gentlemanly invitation.Julia stepped aside cooperatively, knowing whom Grant was after, of course, even though this man was supposed to be her male companion tonight.

Rhea nodded embarrassedly at Julia, but still agreed to Hugh Grant's invitation.

After all, he had asked Rhea before.

And soon Rhea regretted it, because it meant that after the first dance, there would be a steady stream of requests from men to her.

She shouldn't have opened this dancing box—

As a result, as soon as she entered the dance floor, those Hollywood people who were originally loose and lazy also joined in one after another.Now the Golden Globe dinner is really a ballroom.

Once you say yes to the first one, it's hard to say no to the successive invitations that follow.

Rhea is annoyed that she made a wrong choice to hide her feelings.

At the end of a dance, Jude Law took her hand in a circle, "It's rare to see, I thought you didn't like this kind of social interaction, Rhea."

"Okay, I'm already reflecting on it." Rhea was not polite to him, and said directly: "Jump twice and it's over."

Anyway, they talked about it.

Jude Law didn't force it, shrugged, "Well, there are people in line behind you, I have to think about other actors." He generously took Rhea into Matt Damon's hands.

They are all winners tonight, so there is a natural atmosphere.

Although Rhea had a headache, she didn't intend to spoil the atmosphere, so she danced with her for a while.Now the whole place has come alive, joining the dance floor one after another, at least it won't appear that she is so obtrusive.

Familiar actors are also considered good, even some unfamiliar actors came over, wanting to take this opportunity to chat with Rhea.

It's a pity they didn't find Julia Roberts at the right time, and the continuous number of people also scared Rhea back.

"I'm sorry I have to rest for a while, this dress is torturing me." Rhea found an excuse.

And then she'd smile at everyone and say, "No, no, it doesn't bother you at all. I appreciate your interest in those plans that haven't been made yet.

I hope you can give me some advice..."

Or simply say: "Oh! This is my phone number, don't forget, you must contact me... Yes, you can also find Holm, she is a brokerage assistant.

Well, Holm is in charge of the docking, she knows more than me now..."

Finally temporarily from airtight

Walking out surrounded by eyes, Rhea couldn't help exhaling.

Holm, who was waiting, immediately prepared a large shawl for her and wrapped it around Rhea's shoulders.They were about to leave, but they were stopped by a voice: "Riya! Wait a minute, please don't go."

Rhea and Home turned their heads and saw a woman with blond straight hair coming from the field.

This is not a beauty in the common sense of Hollywood. Because of the injections in her face, the woman's face is still a little swollen and stiff.

But her voice was magnetic and moving, and Rhea immediately recognized that it was the female voice cheering on the stage.

The voice was very close, since the other party was not in front of the stage, it must be behind the scenes.Rhea felt that the other party looked familiar, but couldn't remember it for a while.

Home went over to shake hands first: "Ms. Barbra Streisand, congratulations on receiving the Cecil B. DeMille Award." It is also the lifetime achievement award of this session.

Barbara smiled nonchalantly: "It's nothing, after all, I've been in this industry for so many years, so it's time for me to get an achievement medal."

She turned to Rhea: "You are the amazing person tonight!"

Rhea showed a humble and apologetic expression, "I'm far behind, my achievements are far from what you achieved—I'm sorry, I didn't notice you were looking for me just now."

"It's okay, I'm late." Barbra Streisand blinked her eyes, "After all, I saw so many men showing their feathers for you, I dare not interrupt their competition..."

Rhea paused in embarrassment, and Home, who was beside him, showed a subtle expression of approval, but did not answer.

Thankfully Barbara changed the subject herself: "Well, I know you must be tired, dear. Come on, I'll see you off. I heard you've had trouble with your car. That's unfortunate."

Rhea and Home looked at each other.

This matter was only explained to the reporters outside the arena, and the guests inside the arena didn't know about it yet—Barbra Streisand got wind of it so quickly, which shows that she has a wide network of contacts, and also shows that she has done an investigation.

Rhea recalled Barbra Streisand's experience and background in her mind, and after thinking about it for a while, she still said, "Thank you, that's troublesome."

In the end, they all got into Barbra Streisand's luxury car.

Thanks to the fact that the reporters all knew Barbara's license plate, no one thought that Rhea was inside, but they safely covered Rhea and left the Hilton Hotel smoothly.

Along the way, the chat in the car was very pleasant.

Barbara is a talkative woman, and she is also very understanding.Pop music

, film production, packaging operations, she can talk about everything, and it really gave Rhea some answers.

Throughout the process, Barbara acted like a caring, patient female senior.

It wasn't until she was about to reach the address given by Rhea that Barbara finally revealed her purpose.She said, "Rhea, you're smart and capable, and I don't think you want to stop there."

Rhea tilted her head, "Barbara, I don't understand what you mean."

Barbara smiled and said: "You have done a good job of publicizing those judges. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate your courage. But if you have stronger support, you will not be obsessed with throwing away a best drama award." Actress award.

My dear, you can win all of them, but you still avoid the award you deserve most for the sake of risk. "

Rhea was silent about it.

Barbara showed a very regretful look.

"That's why we need not only economic means, but also political support..."

Rhea asked, "What do you want to say?"

The overzealous woman finally got to the point: "Rhea, I know you've never been a part of this. So I have to ask you first, what do you think of the Democratic Party?"

……

Watching Barbra Streisand's luxury car drive away, Holm finally didn't have to suppress her emotions, she exclaimed: "Is that woman crazy, to drag you into such a troublesome thing!"

A presidential campaign—what a dream!

Compared with the money and power games played in politics, this kind of awards PR in Hollywood is a piece of cake.

We can't ask Laria to play in the more terrifying arena just because Rhea is good at the Hollywood game field!It's too dangerous!

Home chatted endlessly, and Rhea's expression also changed subtly.

In fact, in the car, Rhea did not explicitly refuse.

She just said, "Sorry, I don't know much about the Democrats..."

And their respective performances have conveyed that there is still more to talk about on this topic.It is only the first contact now, and everything is still too early.

But the situation is different from what Holm and Barbara thought. Rhea’s problem is not that she does not participate in politics, but because she has been involved in it for a long time, it is even less likely to help the candidate run like Barbra Streisand——

She is the one who gets the most attention.

But wait, she has no way to enter the arena, but can she intervene in other ways to influence it?Like the mutant thing...

A vague idea flashed in Rhea's mind, and she just in time

Stop this thought and bring the topic back.

"How was the response to the Golden Globes?"

Whoever was running for president, Rhea had to deal with her own problems first.

Home started with the good news: "The ratings were good, and the people at NBC were very happy. But there were some people in the press association who weren't happy. They thought it was too much."

Rhea lost the smile on her face, she sighed: "I know."

Originally, Malloy was talking about "gaining a place for "The Talented Ripley", but it turned out that this place almost occupied the Golden Globe Awards.

If Rhea hadn't changed her mind in advance and didn't want the Best Actress, this scene would probably have gone too far.

She swears she didn't do Matt Damon and Jude Law a favor, and their respective teams did as well.Apparently this caused some judges to misunderstand Rhea's meaning, which was too "positive".

Of course, this also made everyone misunderstand Rhea.

Rhea bet that some people at the venue looked at her as if she had adopted two actors at the same time!

"Get ready for public relations." Rhea said resignedly.

Such a situation at the Golden Globes made Rhea have a bad feeling about the Oscars, which will announce the list of nominations tomorrow.She wasn't worried about not being nominated.

Instead, Rhea was worried, whether she and Harvey Weinstein would cause another embarrassing situation because of working too hard...

"Uh!"

Holm glanced at the phone and let out a louder cry than before.

"what happened?"

"The Oscar nominations have been announced in advance." Holm's expression was exaggerated, and the freckles on her face were almost protruding from under the foundation. She opened her mouth and said, "And they also issued a statement."

"Why? What statement?"

Rhea was puzzled.

"Best Actress Nominee. Rhea..."

Home's expression was between surprise and amazement, and she didn't even know what to say.Holm had to follow the words on it.

"Best Actress nomination," Holm said briefly.

"Annette Bening, American Beauty,

Julianne Moore, "Until It Ends",

Meryl Streep, "A String That Touches Me",

Rhea Noren, The Talented Ripley,

Rhea Noren in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. "

Rhea almost thought she had heard it wrong, and she confirmed to Home: "Why are there two my names?"

"Because there are two names." Holm swallowed. "Shit, Rhea! You got two Oscar nominations for Best Actress!"

Rhea knows the Lord of the Rings

She's the heroine, but the question is - who's doing PR for this so-called "heroine"? !The negative emotions she had pent up all night finally came out.

She was a little out of control: "What? It's impossible!"

And Rhea is still confused, why can an actor be nominated twice for the same award, is this in compliance with the rules?

Well, even if someone is doing PR, isn't Oscar's cumbersome and complicated voting mechanism to avoid this, has no one noticed the problem of her name appearing twice?

What happened to the Oscar judges?

How could they cast such a number of votes, why did they make such an oolong!
