super actress

The conference room was silent for a while.

The first one to speak was Paul □□, he debuted as an actor, and has always been keen to participate in those cult movies with swords and swords, but he himself likes to direct some slow-key works. A few years ago, he also filmed for Roger Corman made a documentary.

"I'm just saying on behalf of myself, I didn't accept anyone's 'gift'." He must have been dissatisfied with Hollywood's unspoken public relations rules for a long time, and took the opportunity to sarcasm.

A fiery Geraldine Newman choked: "Really? But you wrote Rhea Noren's Lord of the Rings out of five choices!"

□□Question: "This is my experience with characters. I have watched hundreds of movies, but there are not many characters that impress me.

Guess what, I'm really tired of literary films that moan without disease, Rhea is very good, she can pull me into the atmosphere of the movie. "

"That's just special effects technology! Hell, it wouldn't make much difference if the character was played by another person, you sci-fi fanatic."

Newman was extremely dissatisfied, and he yelled at everyone present: "It's fine with "The Talented Ripley", she at least shows a little method essence, but "Lord of the Rings"? You must be crazy!"

"Don't put your performance theory on me." There is also a strong flavor in the words:

"What do you define acting as? Ha. That's why you put Rhea Noren 'The Talented Ripley' in your own vote? Let me think about it, because this character doesn't need immersion to use the 'method' ’ as a completely different person—through glass.”

This statement offended those members who promoted this theory.

Those who insist on method performances snatch the words: "Don't be so mean, Paul. Keep enjoying the gimmicks you play in expressionism, anyway, you need those props, costumes, labels...

Now Rhea Noren has added an option for you, a new technology!

But you shouldn't put your personal preferences into such a serious award selection, it's not fair to those actors who work harder and put more heart into it! "

As the first person to show up, Paul D. was targeted.

He defended his position: "Oh come on, at least I can swear to my choice, I followed my heart. And you, how many people really appreciate "The Talented Ripley"."

Paul even named it: "Marcus! It was Paramount that invested in your "The Boat Is Full" after you hit the streets in a row, and you have a close friendship with them.

cut.

Ha, if it weren't for Paramount's involvement in the back, "The Talented Ripley" would never have been released for so long after the accident. Now they not only want to take advantage of the situation to promote this movie, but also want to use it to please Rhea. Nolen, keep working with her.Am I right? "

Markus Imhoff's face turned ugly instantly, "I don't understand what you're talking about. It's been so many years, and my friends at Paramount have all retired."

"Haha maybe they didn't ask you for PR, but they must have talked with you a lot, so you couldn't help but pay attention to Rhea, and even wrote a name for her..."

Marcus looked away, refusing to answer.

"Tracy!" Paul D., turning to the other man, said:

"Your ex-husband is the current chairman of the Los Angeles Film Critics Association. I heard that he is planning to establish an Internet film critic organization with other film critics associations... He must really need the support of RN to enter the management seat.

Don't try to fool me, I know Rhea is behind the RN network. "

The lady responded coldly: "You said everything, that is my ex-husband."

"But your children are waiting to succeed his resources."

Stabbed by this sentence, Trish Janney almost couldn't hold back her expression.

"Oh, yes, and Frank..."

"Shut up, Paul!" Trish directly interrupted Paul □□ to continue the roll call, and she also launched an attack: "I was influenced by some external factors, but I didn't receive the benefits of Rhea Nolen.

As for those who voted for "The Lord of the Rings", how many of you are friends of Harvey Weinstein? "

Trish Janney, who later turned into a screenwriter and producer, spoke sharply: "Last year Harvey bought a fleet of yachts, ha, this year he has to charter a cruise for you!"

The tearing sarcasm caused gasps.

"I have nothing to do with Weinstein!"

"What are you implying? Trish, this is slander!"

"I've been with my family for the last year, and I haven't even gone out..."

Gable, who was a little younger, yelled at the elders:

"Come on! The Lord of the Rings is a epoch-making movie, and I know you guys wouldn't pick this one anyway, you don't like blockbusters! That's why I gave an extra vote.

Okay, I admit I was carried away by Elwen, but I didn't know it? ! "

In the chaos, Walter Wanger, chairman of the Academy of Oscars, slapped the table vigorously and roared: "Enough! This is the Oscar review meeting, no!

It's a piazza! "

Everyone fell silent.

In the awkward and stalemate atmosphere, Frank cleared his throat when Paul was interrupted by Trish in the middle of roll call.

"Let me explain, I just thought it was a pity that Rhea was affected by that accident. I wrote her "The Talented Ripley" in my five choices very early...

If I knew the names of other awards, I would not submit so quickly. "

Walter Wanger frowned at him, and in the exchange of eyes, Walter found that the other party was serious.Frank Pearson, romantic guy, damn it!

At this moment, Walter's anger was even half extinguished by the sense of absurdity.

He felt sorry for this group of members who had either started talking to themselves or had lost themselves, and they had forgotten the original purpose of the Academy Awards!

How annoying, and how ridiculous.

At the same time, Walter was also surprised by Rhea Noren's complicated and intertwined relationship in Hollywood.

This actress has accumulated such a powerful strength. Her every move will affect countless profit chains. People even gather to her spontaneously to fight for her...

And all she needs to do is to give a signal.

They flocked to it.

what!

However, it wasn't Rhea Noren who ruined the authority of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences.

They have already had loopholes under the slow and persistent temptation and corruption of Hollywood. The problem has long existed, but everyone pretends not to see it, and either ignores it or joins it.

It is money and power that play a role in this.

It's just that Rhea Noren, the latest representative who condensed the pinnacle of power, opened this gap all at once.The interests of too many people are involved behind her, and the expectations of too many forces are intertwined...

Capital escorted her, and fame and fortune brought her to the throne.

This finally created a "coincidence" of double nominations for Best Actress!

Under the entanglement of power and interests, Walter also discovered another bad phenomenon warning.

In addition to the controversy about acting styles and precision performance in "The Talented Ripley", "The Lord of the Rings" actually exposed a deeper problem

At the turn of the great new century from 1999 to 2000, "The Talented Ripley" and "Lord of the Rings" are indeed representatives of two kinds of old and new movies-expression-focused classic movies, and brand-new semi-holographic technology movies.

This is not only impacting the market, but also impacting the aesthetic value and judging standards of filmmakers.

even

These old fellows from the Academy School were all fooled by this explosive technological progress.

If a movie can make the audience "immersive" and "empathize" with technology alone, then where does the existence of actors go?

Even the meaning, which extends to directors, writers, and other important working parts of the team, is questionable.

Is Elwen, supported by Rhea's acting skills, better or not at all?

The audience voiced their opinion with raving love, but it was clear that the jury was deeply divided.Some would even rather enjoy the rimmed heroine of The Talented Ripley.

But the movies of the future will not be decided by the "old school", it will be decided by the newcomers——

And Rhea Noren is the most cutting-edge, top-notch, most powerful leader among the newcomers, if not one of them.

Overwhelmed by the questions that kept popping up, Walter Wanger suddenly couldn't say anything critical.

He lowered his gaze and looked around all the jury members present.

It is deeply exhausting to take over as chairman for five years.

Walter finally said: "We determine the oldest, most authoritative and professional film awards in the United States, and also determine the most influential film awards in the world.

This is not just an expression of personal preferences, let alone a channel for seeking benefits.

Second round of re-election voting, I hope you really understand what you are doing when you write your choices. "

He could only say so, because Walter Wanger realized that he couldn't do more, that the world was already changing dramatically, and that he was getting old and sick.

Maybe it's time for him, an old guy, to give way to young people.

The meeting room was tense.

Even Walter, the chairman, is so heavy, and the other members will not feel better.After all, with such an oolong nomination, the public opinion of the outside world must be turned upside down-no one wants to see such a result.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door cautiously.

Walter's tone was serious: "I said, don't disturb us during the meeting!"

"Sorry, Mr. Wangle, but... Rhea Noren called."

This caused a series of reactions from the members at the conference table, all surprised: "What?"

Is this actress crazy?How dare she take the initiative to find the Oscar judging agency at such a sensitive time and on the cusp of such a crisis!

Or does she really feel that she can be lawless——

Is she here to finalize the outcome?

Right?

Walter Wanger looked uncertain: "What's the matter with her?"

The people outside the door lowered their attitude, "She said that she is honored to be the first double nominee for the same award in the history of Oscars, and she also understands the difficulty of the academy at the moment.

Rhea claims that she has a solution to this wonderful and inappropriate 'coincidence'. "

Everyone looked at each other, Walter pondered for a while, and then compromised with a sigh: "Give me her phone number."

After all, the Oscars do have a PR problem right now.

No matter how they comment on Rhea's acting skills, they definitely agree with one thing: Rhea Noren is a powerful woman, if anyone in Hollywood can find a way, it must be her and her team!

In the face of common difficulties, no one dared to question Rhea's gender and qualifications.

It's become an unspoken law in Hollywood -- Rhea Noren always has a way.
