After all, history continued on its original trajectory, although a little accident occurred in the process, "L.A. Confidential" pulled out its teeth and snatched the award for best film editing, which made "Titanic" unable to tie." The historical record of "Benxu", a single "only" harvested ten statuettes, ranked second in film history, and failed to further create history; but the ending was developed in accordance with standard procedures, including the best director, "Titanic" "It was logical to get the best film in the bag, and became the biggest winner of the 70th Oscar in one fell swoop, and the controversial topic finally came to an end for the time being.
Although everyone knows that the debate between the traditional and the reformists will continue, just like the balance between commercial films and art films-after nearly a century of arguing, there is still no conclusion. This is about " The dispute between "Titanic" and "L.A. Confidential" is also difficult to draw a clear conclusion: after all, this is not a math problem.
But at least so far, as an authority, Oscar has given an answer: the historical process of the film industry will continue to move forward after all. This is unstoppable. Computer special effects have become the most important part of the film industry, and even the most important part of the film industry is needed. The best movie Little Golden Man to prove this. On the way forward in history, the reformists once again defeated the traditional conservatives who stood still.
As if the "male and female thieves" turned out in the first place, this work announced the turbulent wave of new Hollywood movies with a shocking attitude. At the 40th Oscar. "The Male and Female Thief" won Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Two Best Supporting Actors, Best Supporting Actress, Best Original Screenplay, Best Photography, Best Costume Design, etc. Ten nominations, and finally won the Best Supporting Actress and Best Photography two statuettes.
In that Oscar, it was not the "graduates" who won the best picture in the end. It's not "guess who will eat dinner (guess.'r, not "Doctor Dolittle (le, nor "male and female thieves", but "hot summer night (in. the. heat. of. the.). .
History has proved that the choice of the academy cannot be considered wise, because even if the "male and male thief" is not recognized by the academy, it has completely changed the trajectory of the entire Hollywood film industry and affected the direction of film development in the next three decades. As for the "hot summer night", it was submerged in the long river of history. Although this is still an excellent work that reflects racial issues, even the work "Guess Who Will Eat Dinner" that also reflects racial issues is even more acclaimed.
In the face of history. Even the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences can only be regarded as a chess piece, and their decisions cannot stop the course of history. This is the true power of history!
Now, thirty years later, another cycle is coming. "Titanic" appeared in the movie market as a "male and female thief". And this time the academy did not miss it again. They chose "Titanic" and the development direction of film production represented by this film, and went forward in line with the trend of the times.
This is not a victory for the "Titanic", nor a victory for the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, but a victory for the entire film industry-at least on the night of March 23, 1998, everyone believed this. a little.
Hugo knows that the wheel of history is hard to shake, he is just a small butterfly. Even if he tried his best to fan his wings, he couldn't fight the tsunami's Tianwei. But even so, Hugo still felt a trace of regret. He was so close-so close that he could use his own power to change history. In fact. He has changed history.
"L.A. Confidential" won the Best Supporting Actress, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Film Editing awards, once again letting people feel the infinite charm of Hollywood's golden age classic movies, and the US $260 million at the box office only won After the "Titanic", it ranked the single second place in the 1997 year-end box office list.
After winning the Best Actor, Best Actress and Best Original Screenplay awards, "Perfect Perfection" once again made people realize the charm of the lines. It re-exhibited the screenwriters' solid writing skills and delicate shaping ability during the golden years. The name "Ernst Lechmann" once again returned to people's sight, awakening those memories of stage plays and classic masterpieces.
Two works of six statuettes. Although not comparable to the ten trophies of "Titanic", the academy expressed their position in this way: It is imperative for computer special effects to change history, but the importance of scripts should never be ignored, and It should also be praised by people again, because only truly excellent scripts, combined with the correct use of computer special effects, can take the film industry to the next level.
This is the history that Hugo has changed. "Perfect" and "L.A. Confidential" have received more attention, and the importance of the script has been reiterated once again. In the era of blockbusters led by visual effects, the retro power still cannot be underestimated. However, I don't know how much effect this Oscar's hint can play within large production companies, and how much influence it will add to the development of the film industry in the future. No one can predict.
However, it is a pity that the combination of "L.A. Confidential" and "Perfect" is only a little bit away from overthrowing history, but ultimately fell short. It was precisely this close-at-hand success that made Hugo feel an unspeakable loss of heart, as if a ball of cotton was stuffed in his chest, and it could only show a wry smile.
But Hugo also has an advantage: he is about to become one of the helms of DreamWorks. As the most important independent production resource for Hollywood in the future, DreamWorks has this ability to become the last piece of pure land after Wall Street controls Hollywood, and it also has this ability to rely on. Own influence to change the market. Therefore, all possibilities exist in the future.
This is a night of history. According to statistics, after the four and a half hours of the awards ceremony, an average of 58 million viewers watched the show. This easily created a new high in the history of Oscars—this is history. For the first time, the average viewership of the Oscars was over 50 million!
Throughout the awards ceremony, the moment with the highest viewership was the summit moment of the "Titanic". More than 62 million viewers witnessed James Cameron leading the largest cruise ship in history to occupy the sacred auditorium; and The moment with the second highest viewership was the announcement of the best director, with a total of 59.5 million viewers; and the moment when the Best Original Screenplay Award was announced, with an instant viewership of 58 million. , Even the announcement moment of the best actor has not reached such a high level.
It can be said that this is an Oscar that made history from beginning to end.
From Charlize winning the Best Supporting Actress Award, to Hugo becoming the second person in film history to win the actor and screenwriter award, to Jack’s third acting figurine, and finally to the "Titanic" win Win. The 70th Oscar went down in the annals of history along with the course of history, creating an almost insurmountable peak-in fact, during the next two decades, the Oscars ceremony never attracted so much attention. Degree, maybe Hollywood can only wait quietly for the next moment of historical change.
It’s just that I don’t know if it’s a 30-year cycle or it will take longer.
In addition to "Titanic", Hugo was actually the most popular player that night, not only because he defeated a group of strong opponents and won the best original script-unknowingly, his personal figurine was also It has reached three; and because of the two works produced by him, "L.A. Confidential" and "Perfect" became the second only works of "Titanic" that night, and the limelight was not inferior. It is foreseeable that in the future, Hugo will set off more waves as a producer and screenwriter. In the process of historical change, Hugo's role will become more and more important.
Therefore, when Hugo came to the backstage of the sacred auditorium and waited for his little golden figure to engrave, the reporters surrounded him in an instant, fighting against James Cameron on the other side, just from the perspective of momentum. , Hugo is absolutely not inferior here.
James glanced at Hugo through the crowd, and the two people’s eyes collided in the air. James provocatively smiled at Hugo and raised his chin. This is the first time James has faced Hugo with such direct emotions, almost without concealing his pride and pride, which made Hugo raised his eyebrows lightly and responded with a bright smile-because of the rain. As I know, the era of blockbuster movies has just begun Everything in the future is unknown.
However, James didn’t care at all. Hugo’s reaction seemed to him to be the sophistry and escape of the loser, so he sneered slightly, then withdrew his gaze as a winner, and faced him again. Reporter.
Hugo also had no intention of defending himself. He retracted his gaze and looked at the reporter in front of him, "Hugo, I would like to ask that both of your works tonight unfortunately failed to win the Best Picture Award, but witnessed the'Titanic'. ”
The reporter's interpretation was really unique and sharp. Hugo laughed. "A movie is the work of the entire crew. I don't think it can be distinguished by victory and defeat. I thought you would ask me about the best original screenplay award. The question is.” In a few simple words, Hugo expressed his position: He is an independent individual, but the movie is a whole, so there is no need to continue to ask questions.
In fact, Hugo’s attitude can also be seen: he avoided the reporter’s question and did not send blessings or praise to the "Titanic". This is Hugo's position.
"So, can you talk about Ernst Lechmann in detail?" (to be continued)
