[US Entertainment] Popular all over the world

The posters of "The Pianist" in many public places in Los Angeles were written with big "QJ prisoner" and "□□" in red paint, and even the body advertisements of some buses were not spared;

Some extremists got the news from nowhere, gathered outside the venue where Miramax screened "The Pianist" for those academy judges, and held up the slogan "Best QJ Award of the Year";

As for Europe, Roman Polanski himself was constantly harassed by gossip reporters, and one of his ex-girlfriends even stood up for an interview, claiming that he was tricked into having sex with a big director when he was 14 years old;

As for Hollywood, because Josie may no longer attend this year's Oscars ceremony, the Academy has also suffered some attacks and pressures that they shouldn't have suffered.

In an office building on Wilshire Avenue in Beverly Hills, several gray-haired members of the Academy Council are sitting at the conference table, in order to ensure that the ratings of this year's awards ceremony will not be affected by the cancellation of the red carpet and Joe Sue Horton's public statement was pulled down.

"How dare she! How dare they!" A vice-chairman angrily threw open letters on the table.

Just yesterday morning, Josie Horton, this year's hottest Oscar nominee for Best Actress, sent a letter expressing her withdrawal from this year's Oscar competition, and then the Academy received dozens of similar letters one after another, from acting to Documentary award nominees, from women to men, from white to black, have the same goal of quitting.

This is an unprecedented crisis facing the college.

The refusal of George C. Scott and Marlon Brondo had a certain degree of negative impact on the college, but now because of a Roman Polanski... It seems that Josie Horton really After making up their minds, many people began to stand in line one by one, so the college must consider whether it is worthwhile to continue.

"Reject this. There is no precedent for the college to actively agree to such a thing." Another vice-chairman said, his attitude was relatively peaceful, and it was obviously just a test.

"Just refuse? No, we have to fight back!" The vice-chairman in front had a particularly tough attitude. "She has already humiliated the Golden Globes. Does she still want to humiliate the Oscars and even challenge the entire Hollywood?"

"Unfortunately, John, we old men can't represent the whole of Hollywood, but she can represent a complete Hollywood giant studio. She has long stopped buying the Golden Globes, isn't she, even the Golden Globes are Ma Sarah Miller took over." Frank Pearson, the chairman of the current academy, rubbed his temples, sighed, and said, "What I can be sure of now is that Halle Berry, the actress of the last session, is willing to give Adri Ann Brody presented the award, and she took over Bryan Singer's X-Men series."

"But none of the "Lord of the Rings" crew will come. They must stand with their bosses at this time, and they also know very well that this year's "Lord of the Rings" will not win awards."

"Leonardo DiCaprio has no nominations, and it is confirmed that he will not attend; Daniel Day-Lewis' agent has not responded clearly, they are worried that Adrien Brody and "The Pianist" will both win awards , causing this year’s results to be controversial; as for the old Martin, I personally talked to him on the phone, he has a lot of complaints about Harvey, and plans to switch to Warner or Universal for the next project, but he promised to appear that night.”

"The good news is that Meryl Streep is definitely coming, but my friend told me that Nicole Kidman is still rocking, and she seems to be persuaded by Josie Horton's plan."

John yelled again: "It's impossible, unless Nicole Kidman doesn't want a statuette anymore!"

Frank Pearson shrugged: "But what if someone offered her a salary of 2000 million US dollars and a female lead in a commercial film that is likely to become a hit? We all know that an Oscar is just an Oscar, and no one will pay her." make life difficult for."

“Honestly, for $2000 million, I’d get on my knees and lick anybody’s toes.” Another vice chair said, “Frank, I can’t believe you didn’t talk to her people, who did you talk to? Miller or Costner? What does she want? We need her at this year's awards, we need to show that Hollywood is one big family, and not be crucified as a public talking point. "

All this is really enough.

The Oscars are supposed to be an annual art event, not a battleground for anyone vying for power, and the entire awards season has turned into a mess these days around Roman Polanski and The Pianist.

Even his granddaughter, who was only in middle school at home, asked with disgust after seeing the report on TV: "Ewwww, are you really going to give awards to that LTP and QJF?"

He still remembers how embarrassed and ashamed he was.

Frank Pearson was a little embarrassed by the vice chairman's bluntness, took a deep breath and said: "I hope everyone here will remember that one of the original intentions of the establishment of the Academy is to honor those who have made outstanding contributions to the film industry. , but more important than this is to promote the development of film art and science, which is also part of social development."

After saying this, the president of the college looked around and remembered everyone's expressions in his heart before continuing: "As for that lady, her assistant conveyed some personal requests to me, and she herself would not Admit it..."

"Plea? Haha!" John sneered. "You know what, Frank, you're like someone's dog now, and you're not going to have a good time. Who does she think she is? God?"

Frank Pearson ignored it, took out a small note from his jacket pocket, and began to read: "First, since piracy has a precedent of expulsion, the academy should expel convicted sexual assault, including Roman Polanski And Bill Cosby, and listed this article as one of the rules for members of the academy; second, assuming "The Pianist" wins this year's Oscar for best picture, there may be protests by female filmmakers at the award ceremony..."

"These women are crazy!" John yelled. "Let them eat X! I don't care about big bloody families! Anyway, I don't agree! This is a threat that we can't give prizes! This is shady!"

Frank Pearson glanced up at his colleague who was banging on the table, and shook his head helplessly. He had tried his best to deal with it. Originally, the other party's request was to directly revise the nomination list for this year's Oscars, but the price of doing so was If it is too large, it will seriously damage the credibility of the college.

In the end, both parties made concessions and got the expulsion clause.

"The second point that the other party will not admit. No female filmmaker will admit it. Unless that scene actually happens." Frank Pearson exchanged glances with other people around him, confirming that they both agreed to privately use their personal connections to influence Best Picture, "Third, the New York Times report has received a response from Harvey Weinstein's office. The female reporter found dozens of women he had raped since the 80s Interview, and they have not been dismissed by public relations so far, it proves that this will definitely be an unprecedented trial, if you don’t want to sink with this bastard, everyone..."

The Secret or The Pianist?

Two years ago, perhaps those Oscar Academy judges would never have imagined that their barren brains would one day be raped by capital, just like Louis Meyer did decades ago.

But today's Josie Horton did it.

This is not only because she is the superstar that Hollywood people aspire to, but also because she is the only one in charge of a media group. Various mainstream TV stations and traditional paper media are full of her mouthpiece. Played by it at will.

Some people even suspect that the instant messaging software TT she invested in at the beginning of her career may have some unpublished information retrieval and transmission functions, otherwise how to explain a memo from inside Miramax that appeared in the New York Times "Reporter Amber Lawrence's report?

Many academy judges are known to be too old to use their phones, but there's no guarantee their family and friends won't either.

So Amber Lawrence must know more, not even Harvey Weinstein. It is said that she once got a black leather notebook from Josie Horton, which recorded the handles of countless people.

It was also at the moment when the sword of Damocles fell that the Weinsteins in Hollywood realized that the biggest stain on Josie Horton's body was precisely the Internet company under Tianshen Entertainment, but they hadn't had time to do it , found that TT and Ttime have already launched in-depth cooperation with the state apparatus, and it is theoretically impossible to use such nuclear weapons for Hollywood's "little things".

But the fact is, Harvey Weinstein really fell this time.

When LAPD grandly took away the former CEO in the building where Miramax was located, this incident quickly became the headlines of the next day, but Miramax did not seem to be affected much internally, focusing on youth Bob Weinstein of the horror film market took over the command of the company and continued to sprint for Oscars.

Contrary to Harvey Weinstein's original plan, Miramax ditched "The Pianist" entirely in its final push, instead dipping its toe into New York City, Chicago, and The Hours.

It is obvious that the once glorious Harvey Weinstein has become an outcast, and more and more people are beginning to notice that the weights at both ends of the scale are no longer evenly matched.

On March 2003, 3, the 23th Academy Awards ceremony was held at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood, Los Angeles, USA.

Josie wore a no-nonsense white satin dress tonight, and she was not going to show off at the awards ceremony, but most of the people seemed calm, even Roman Polanski's former friend Jack Nick Ersen also looked normal, and even smiled at her, a rising star in the film industry, fully expressing her friendliness.

Very good, this is the veteran player in Vanity Fair, isn't it?

In the live TV footage, the stars attending the awards ceremony were talking and laughing happily, presenting the glamorous image and harmonious atmosphere expected by the public.

On the stage, Josie Horton, the most popular top actress, is introducing the nominees for this year's Best Cinematography. Catherine Zeta-Jones, who has already won this year's Best Supporting Actress Award, is next to her husband Michael Douglas. Sitting, I heard the latter whispering from beside me: "Honey, do you really believe she's just out for justice?"

Catherine Zeta-Jones turned to look at her husband, but Michael Douglas nonchalantly followed the others in applause, with a just-right smile on his face.

So Catherine Zeta-Jones thought about it, and whispered: "At least she brought some changes."

"It's meaningless." Michael Douglas smiled and said, "She just found a seemingly righteous excuse to start a war, but many people regard her as a hero. You are no exception, right, dear ?”

Catherine Zeta-Jones didn't answer, but just moved the corner of her mouth in an unexplained way, silently supporting her swollen belly with both hands.

Michael Douglas didn't care either. When the camera lens swept over, he covered his wife's hand quite intimately, and didn't let go after the camera left.

He is very clear.If it wasn't for his power, an old man like himself would never be able to get close to the young and beautiful Catherine, let alone marry her as his wife.

But who makes power the best stimulant?

It's just that as time goes by, the effect of the stimulant will gradually weaken. He began to feel less energy more and more frequently, and the new movies he starred in failed one after another. On the contrary, his young wife became a rising star in Hollywood. She will replace Josie Horton and star in Steven Spielberg's new film "The End of Happiness" with Tom Hanks.

That was part of the deal, but Michael Douglas was starting to regret it.

In a few cases, he didn't want his wife to become more and more famous, and he didn't even want her to continue making movies, but considering that he fell in love with her at first sight because he watched "The Mask of Zorro", his emotions finally defeated him Narrow jealousy and desire to control.

"You know how much I love you." Michael Douglas whispered emotionally suddenly, his tone was full of worry and even imploring, "I can't live without you, Catherine."

"Honey, remember to smile." Catherine Zeta-Jones patted her husband's hand reassuringly and reminded.

This is the most glorious moment among Catherine Zeta-Jones.

The Oscar statuette, which represents the highest honor for an actor, has already been acquired. The husband beside her is a veteran movie star from an acting family. She will soon give birth to their offspring, but is all this really what she really wants?

Looking at the figure leaving one after another on the stage, Catherine Zeta-Joan couldn't restrain a crazy thought in her heart, that is to leave this man beside her, or control him...
