For the Best Original Screenplay Award, Hugo was not too nervous or anxious. After learning about the winners, he was very relaxed and applauded. In fact, Hugo has never had much expectations, not only because he knows "Before Sunrise" still has a lot of deficiencies, because he clearly knows that it is very difficult to win awards in the two departments of actors and screenwriters.

In the long history of the Oscars before 2014, there was only one actor who achieved this feat: Emma Thompson.

Sure enough, the Best Adapted Screenplay Award, which was subsequently awarded by Anthony Hopkins as the guest of honor, was awarded to "Sense and Emotion" written by Emma without any suspense.

From the beginning of the November awards ceremony, "Sense and Emotion" has led the way in the screenwriting department. It can almost be said that it has swept the major awards ceremonies without any suspense. Emma has injected the delicacy and depth into this classic masterpiece. It has been unanimously recognized by everyone. Among the only two trophies won by "Sense and Emotion" at the Golden Globe Awards, one belongs to Emma.

Now it’s the Oscar, Emma is still the best in the Best Adapted Screenplay, and she won the Golden Man trophy. This is also Emma's second Golden Man after winning the Oscar three years ago. , This also allowed Emma to complete the first film history to win the Golden Man Award across the actor and screenwriter departments.

With the two awards of the screenwriting department settled, not only did the Oscar's prospects become less clear, it became more and more elusive, because "Apollo 13" and "Brave Heart", who were determined to compete for the best film, both fell. Lost, but "reason and emotion" is showing a momentum of recovery.

In the next three trophies competition between the director and the actors, "Apollo 13" has no nominations; "Brave Heart" is only nominated for the director, and "Sense and Emotion" is only nominated for the heroine, but it is interesting What's more, "Far from the Casino" and "Walk on Death Row" were nominated for director, heroine, and actor at the same time...

This almost created a mess. If "Stay away from the gambling city" or "Walking with death row" include any two golden figures in the next three departments, or "Sense and Emotion" will be the best actress. In the pocket, then the competition for the best film will have an unprecedented chaos. Except for the "Pig Baby" who was out early, the other four works have the opportunity to win!

Such a win-loss situation on thin ice has not been seen at the Oscars for many years, even last year. The "True Story" all showed an overwhelming advantage.

But this year? Perhaps, the suspense will remain until the last moment!

Since this year's Best Actor Award is the biggest suspense, the TV station decided to announce this award as the finale, and the final major axis was naturally handed over to the Best Picture Award, which also allowed the Best Director Award to be awarded in advance. Last year's award winner Robert Zemigis took to the stage to announce the winner of the best director award.

In fact, this year's Best Director Award can be said that there is not much suspense, because all the suspense was basically killed at the nomination stage. The winner of the American Directors Guild Award "Apollo 13" Ron Howard was unexpectedly upset and not shortlisted. Nomination, this kind of situation only appeared once in the previous Oscar history, that is, in 1986, when the directors’ union award winner of the United States was "Purple" Steven Spielberg, he was not shortlisted for the Oscar nomination that year. List.

What's more worth mentioning is that in the forty-eight years of the American Directors Guild Awards, there have been only three inconsistencies between the final winner and the best director of the Oscar.

In 1973, Bob Foss (.)'s "cabaret" defeated Francis Ford Coppola's "godfather"; in 1950, Robert Rosen (.)'s "contemporary traitor (all. the.') s. men)” due to the release time, and Joseph-l-Mankiewicz’s “three wives. Yan. History (a. letter.. three.)” competed for the 22nd Oscar together, and finally The latter won; in 1986, Sidney Pollack's "Out of Africa" ​​defeated Steven Spielberg's "Purple".

Strictly speaking, the time in 1950 was caused by the conflict between the release time and the award time. That is to say, the inconsistency between the award lists of the Directors Guild of America and the Oscar for Best Director has only occurred twice so far.

Therefore, when "Apollo 13" did not enter the nomination list, it almost caused an uproar.

In the Oscar’s list of nominations, "The Postman" has a place in foreign language films, and winning the nomination is already the biggest victory; "Away from Casino" and "Death Row" are among the top five in the final, but two The layout of the works is too small, too literary, and not very competitive.

In the end, only "Baby Pig" and "Brave Heart" are left. The former has almost won the favor of critics. However, since this work uses animals as the protagonist, it can almost be said to be a typical representative of Sword Go Pianfeng. It is almost impossible to make a **** road in a conservative and stubborn academy—referring to the circumstances of "Beauty and the Beast", "The Lion King", and "Pocahontas".

In this way, there is almost no suspense about the "brave heart" with its magnificent structure, the adaptation of real historical events, and the theme of freedom. What's more, at this year's Golden Globe Awards, Mel Gibson defeated Ron Howard and Lee head-on. Ann's two strong competitors won strongly, so the Oscar result can be said to be almost without suspense.

The fact is also true, Robert soon announced the winner, it is Mel Gibson who is acting and directing!

So far, "Brave Heart" has won four trophies. Although three of them are technical trophies, they are still enough to allow this work to seize the opportunity in the best film competition. "Apollo 13" announced Exhausted. However, the trend of the best actor and best actress can still change the situation. The final battle of "Sense and Emotion", and the strong confrontation between "Death Row" and "Away from the Casino" are all likely to change the most The competitive landscape of the best films.

Tom Hanks took the lead on the stage and awarded the Best Actress Award. Although the trend of this award is not as suspenseful as the Best Actor, it can be said that if "Death Row" and "Sense and Emotion" were not won This award, then the suspense of the best film can be announced in advance, "Brave Heart" will become the winner of the last laugh.

Getting closer and closer to the end of the awards ceremony, the entire tense atmosphere became tighter and tighter. Therefore, the list of winners in Tom Hanks's hand attracted countless hot eyes in an instant.

This year’s Best Actress Award can be said to be a melee. The two former actresses Meryl Streep and Emma Thompson are strong, especially Meryl, who has been 13 years since the last award. It has been five years since she was nominated last time. This time, the performance in "Covered Bridge Last Dream" is wonderful and must not be underestimated. Even Emma, ​​who just won the Oscar actress three years ago, has been praised for her "sensibility and emotion" this time, and no one can ignore her existence.

The two topical actors Susan Sarandon and Elizabeth Sue are the focus of attention. The two actors’ works "Death Row" and "Away from Casino" are slightly inferior in overall strength, but both The performance of the four protagonists of the film has won unanimous praise from all film critics. They are undoubtedly the most powerful contenders in the acting department of the Oscars.

The last one is Charlize Theron, who replaced the Golden Globes drama queen Sharon Stone shortlisted with an upset. She gave a natural and lazy, casual but in "Before Sunrise", which received numerous praises. The wise performance can be said to have fascinated countless people. At the last moment, it reached the top five nominations and became a big surprise in the nomination list.

Before the awards ceremony, it was generally believed that Susan and Elizabeth had a slightly better chance. Neither Meryl nor Emma could be regarded as dark horses. Only the twenty-year-old Charlize, who was shortlisted for the first time, could be regarded as a spectator. As the awards ceremony progressed, Emma, ​​who won the Best Adapted Screenplay Award, also has variables. Emma's chances of winning the prize plummeted after winning the prize three years ago, and then there was already a golden figure in hand tonight.

In this way, the main competition depends on Susan, Elizabeth and Meryl. Of course, Susan, who has been nominated five times before and after four times in five years but never won an award, undoubtedly has the upper hand-but it is only a slight advantage.

Hugo calmed down for a while and began to strain again He turned his head and looked at Charlize who was sitting aside. This year Charlize is only twenty years old. He has been in Hollywood for a few years. Throughout the time, she always rejected the role of vase and devoted herself to polishing her acting skills. With her dedication and hard work, Hugo, as a former roommate and best friend, can see it completely, and he also knows the tension and surging inside Charlize at this moment.

At this time Charlize folded his hands together and held it tightly. You can even see the raised blue veins, but the full lips are pressed tightly into a straight line, even if they are not close. I heard the sound of her heart hitting her chest violently. Looking at Meryl sitting on Hugo's right hand again, she was obviously calm and calm, with a calm smile on her face. The difference between the two people is immediately clear.

Hugo did not have the intention to laugh at Charlize, because he estimated that he would not be much better. Hugo moved closer to Charlize and said in a low voice, "Smile! Believe me, you wouldn't want to be greeted with such nervousness. It's a little golden man." The slightly ridiculous words made Charlize glance at Hugo ill-tempered, but immediately saw the tension in Hugo's amber eyes, Charlize slackened a bit and shook slightly. Shaking his head, he said depressedly, "You better pray for a while that you don't make a fool of yourself."

Having said that, the muscles on Charlize's face gradually relaxed, drawing a shallow arc.
