[US Entertainment] Popular all over the world

"People change." Josie said lightly, "Instead of worrying about whether there is something wrong with me, I think you should worry more about yourself, dear dad, it seems that you are not as important as you think, isn't it? ?”

Her tone was a little subtle, obviously mocking Frank, who knew the shady scene behind the 911/[-] incident, but still did not avoid the car accident this time.

There was almost no chance of even waking up again.

Frank's eyes were dim, and he couldn't help but think of his previous disagreement with someone. He didn't explain it, but said: "In short, I will be the winner in the end."

Josie glanced at Frank up and down, as if to ask "You have such a body, how can you win", but her mouth was replaced by: "Do you need help?"

This rare concern surprised Frank a little.

But he didn't show any surprise, just said: "This is my war, girl. If you really have to help, then go for a psychological evaluation, and be an old father of mine. Heart."

Josie just smiled back.

The father and daughter looked at each other for nearly half a minute before she replied in a casual manner: "Okay. ——If you think it's really necessary."

Frank laughed silently.

They sat for another 15 minutes under the shade of the trees in the hospital's home. Patients and visiting family members passed by from time to time, and the atmosphere was peaceful and warm.

Only here, quiet to silence.

When the 15 minutes were up, Josie got up and said goodbye to Frank politely. She had an important meeting tonight, with her manager, Martha Miller.

Frank nodded, but after Josie stood up, he said to her back: "Although it's a bit late, I still wish you a happy birthday, sweetheart."

Josie faltered slightly.

He didn't look back again, just waved his hands back.

The brunette's pace was fast and decisive, and at some point she already had the bearing that a superior person should have. The figure in the distance is not tall, even a bit thin, but she has a surprisingly tough style.

It wasn't until the group of them disappeared completely that Frank retracted his gaze and beckoned to the nurse on standby not far away to push him back to the ward.

The new nurse was a relatively young boy. He endured and endured it all the way, but he still couldn't hold back and said, "Mr. Horton, you are actually Josie Horton's father!"

His tone was full of admiration and envy, mixed with obvious admiration, which could satisfy the vanity of others.

"Oh. That's right." Frank had an unconscious smile on his lips, and straightened his back. "Why, have you seen the movie starring my daughter?"

"More than that! Our whole family is her big fan!"

"Then your whole family is quite discerning."

"Mr. Horton, can I ask her to sign for my little niece next time?"

"Next time you can ask her this question by yourself. Well, instead of going back to the ward for now, take me to the dean's office first..."

2001 3 Month 25 Day.

The annual Academy Awards ceremony is held at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood, California.

The 3400-seat theater on Hollywood Boulevard was officially completed in November last year and has become a fixed venue for the Oscars since this year. Kodak paid $7400 million for the 20-year naming fee.

At three o'clock in the afternoon Eastern time, the red carpet in front of the theater was crowded with people.

The left and right sides of the red carpet are the media area and the audience area, and the middle is divided into three passages. The passage near the audience area is for ordinary guests and audiences who are invited to watch the ceremony, while the passage near the media area is used by most celebrities. , nominees and award presenters occupy.

As for the aisle in the middle, it symbolizes VIP. If the hot A-list stars don’t want to accept media interviews on the red carpet, they can walk into the auditorium directly from here.

Tom Hanks, Mel Gibson, Denzel Washington, Russell Crowe, Barbra Streisand... and the previous film who was a bit miserable and less popular this year by "I Am Sam" After Julia Roberts, a large number of celebrities appeared on the red carpet, making today's Hollywood Boulevard shine brightly.

The most beautiful on the red carpet this year is undoubtedly the three crews of "Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring", "A Beautiful Mind" and "Heidi".

The brilliant achievements created by the former will not be repeated for the time being.

Although "A Beautiful Mind" has been accused of beautifying the prototype of the characters and distorting the facts, it has been an award-winning hit with both box office and word-of-mouth since the beginning of the awards season, and it has maintained its advantage until now.

Even if the leading actor Russell Crowe hurt America's Sweetheart Meg Ryan, people still like his performance on the screen, not to mention that the heroine of this film, Jennifer Connelly, is also recognized as a great beauty. Best Supporting Actress of the night.

The box office success of "Heidi" seems very unreasonable.

Yes, Dakota Fanning's bright smile is very healing, yes, Saoirse Ronan's melancholy eyes are also pitiful, but this cannot fully explain the fact that two unknown child stars co-starred in a movie this year "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" took home $7000 million at the domestic box office.

There are no stars, no love, no big scene special effects, and even the story has nothing new.

According to Hollywood's film rules, such an unremarkable "Heidi" is still unwilling to be released in theaters, especially after being stimulated by the recent Oscar nominations, many movie theaters have increased their schedules for this reason.

""Heidi", a sincere work in the shadow of 911/[-]." Roger Ebert, the top critic of the "Chicago Tribune", wrote in his column.

He really understands the audience better than Grandpa Oscar, doesn't he?

Therefore, when the two young actors appeared together on the red carpet this afternoon, they received no less praise than most celebrities. Some media have already thought of dubbing Dakota Fanning as "the next Shirley... Temple", or an eye-catching title, such as "Dakota Fanning or Saoirse Ronan, who will be the next Macaulay Culkin?".

anyway.

The biggest winner in Hollywood this year is undoubtedly DreamWorks Pictures, which has a double harvest at the box office. The remaining question is just how many statuettes they can take tonight.

Crowded in the media area, the female reporter from CCTV and her partner looked at each other, and whispered in their mother tongue: "Okay, Russell Crowe has passed, let's be lazy for a while, shall we?"

The photographer known as Lao Liang shook the machine up and down, but did not speak.

The bow tie of the rented men's formal dress was a little tight, which made this big man in the Northeast, who is used to vests, vests and cultural shirts, uncomfortable.

What's more, their location is not very good, they are just placed in the back of the crowd, and Los Angeles at the end of March is not cool, especially now that hundreds of media from all over the world are crowded in this small area, Just the heat wave brought about by the lights and machines running on site is already very difficult.

The female reporter was worried, and while observing her partner's face, she glanced at the time on the watch again.

Long before she left for Los Angeles, she received an assignment and knew that she would conduct exclusive interviews with several Hollywood stars on the red carpet of the Oscars, including this year's best actor Russell Crowe, as well as the summer vacation with a new movie released in China. The popular superstar Josie Horton.

And now it's 05:30 in the afternoon, but the latter still hasn't shown up.

"Josie!!!!!!!"

"Ah ah ah ah she is here!!!"

"My God my God!!!"

Accompanied by the sudden burst of crazy screams in the audience area, it indicates that this hot star is finally coming.

Gaultier's navy blue beaded dress swayed gently as she walked, and her red lips matched her snowy skin and black hair. Compared with her appearance in the movie "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring", she lacked the ethereal and ethereal appearance of elves , but a little more vivid, more beautiful and moving.

The spotlights in the media area kept flashing.

Everyone seemed to wake up in an instant, becoming very enthusiastic and full of enthusiasm for their current work, as if they were afraid that the PR following the big star would forget to reserve time for them for an exclusive interview.

Of course, even if you don't get an exclusive interview, it's absolutely right to focus on her. Anyway, having "Josie Horton" is equivalent to having ratings and sales. This is a recognized fact in the industry.

"Whoa, you're so gorgeous, honey!"

Nicole Kidman, one of the Australian sisters, wore a pale pink dress, and a Bulgari diamond necklace worth 400 million US dollars was worn on her slender neck, so flawless from head to toe.

Ending her marriage with Tom Cruise seems to have opened up some kind of imprisonment in her body, or it may just make her want to prove herself more and more. Apart from today's extraordinarily glamorous beauty, the whole person presents a kind of excitement state.

"Hello, 'beauty created by God'." Josie stepped forward and gently hugged Nicole, "You look like a goddess of spring."

A beauty created by God, this is one of the praises given to Nicole by a magazine during the awards season, and it is not known how much public relations played a role in it.

But in all fairness, Nicole herself doesn't really like this.

"Oh, come on." Nicole waved her hand and said in a low voice: "This year's competition for best actress is too chaotic, I really doubt that we will fight back and forth, and in the end we will be defeated by that Harley who came out of nowhere .Berry upset again."

This year's award season's best actress competition is roughly like this:

Sissy Spacek of "Unreciable Love" took two outposts, the Golden Globe Award for best drama and broadcast film critic; Judi Dench of "Hand in Hand" won the British Olympic Games as the host; Dakota Fanning of "Heidi" is the newcomer honored by the Academy this year, and the nomination is a victory; Nicole herself won the Golden Globe Award for Best Music with the musical "Moulin Rouge".

It is conceivable that this year's Best Actress should have been decided between "Unlucky Love" and "Moulin Rouge".

But surprisingly, Halle Berry won Best Actress in a Leading Role at the Screen Actors Guild Awards.

——The results of the Screen Actors Union's selection of performance awards are the most important barometer before the Oscars.

Although her performance is still some distance from Oscar-level, the Academy seems eager to create a historic moment: the first black Oscar-winning actress.

Nicole, who has paid a lot for "Moulin Rouge", is hard not to be disappointed.

But she knows she can't show this disappointment in front of the camera, and she still maintains a perfect Hollywood smile when she speaks.

Josie comforted and said: "Baz Luhrmann made the movie very well, and your performance is also very wonderful. I believe that time and the audience will remember that "Moulin Rouge" is the real classic."

"Maybe." Nicole smiled, her eyebrows stretched a lot, "By the way, I haven't congratulated you for getting the most nominations for the movie you made tonight. I heard that you will have big movies besides "Iron Man" next year." action?"

"It might be a space opera." Josie briefly mentioned the project "Queen of Blades".

Nicole seemed very interested, but she didn't continue to ask questions on the red carpet. Instead, she made a note in her heart that she would call another fellow Australian, Hugh Jackman, because the leading actor of this project Sounds like a good fit for him.

This is the case in Hollywood, only by hugging together can we keep warm.

Go it alone?

Oh, unless your name is "Josie Horton," or "Tom Hanks" and "Tom Cruise."

Walking the red carpet step by step and accepting interviews, there was also an episode during which a cameraman interviewing Josie fainted due to physical discomfort. Seeing the familiar yet unfamiliar yellow skin and black eyes of the other party and his partner, Josie Xi deliberately asked her publicist Eve to send them to the ambulance.

Back to the topic.

As expected, the black actress Halle Berry won the Best Actress crown that night, but the Best Actor crown was controversially given to another black superstar Denzel Washington.

Denzel Washington's performance in "Training Day" pales in comparison to Russell G.'s heart-wrenching performance in "A Beautiful Mind."

—He probably deserved the award, but not this time.

More or less, the high-quality "A Beautiful Mind" was still affected by Russell Crowe's too much negative news to compete for the awards season.

But fortunately, Jennifer Connelly, the great beauty of the same film, won the best supporting actress of this year without any accident, and the best supporting actor went to Donald McSutherland in "Heidi".

In addition, "A Beautiful Mind" won the best picture, best director, and best adapted screenplay in one fell swoop, "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" won four technical awards, and DreamWorks Pictures directly took away the nine statuettes , becoming the biggest winner tonight.

This also makes DreamWorks' celebration party tonight a gathering of stars, comparable to an Oscar red carpet.
