Looking back from the perspective of twenty years later, in November and December 1998, countless art films were bombarded. Although the entire market was in chaos, there was hardly any strategy at all. It just swarmed forward. People in the film industry have seen more outstanding works, and many outstanding works have been buried at the same time. But this kind of melee is considered to be the first year of the appearance of "awarding season" and "academic public relations." Since then, the awarding season has officially entered people's attention, which has further promoted the commercialization of the film industry.

The 71st Oscar is the principal of the iconic awards ceremony system in the first year of the award season. Read the full text.

In the nomination stage, the "Shakespeare in Love", which did not cause enough sensation at the beginning of the release, and the reputation and depth of the work, was far from outstanding. Later, it achieved an incredible counterattack and appeared on the Oscar nomination list as a parachute. , Let everyone in North America take a sigh of relief—when did the world unknowingly change?

"Shakespeare in Love" leads the nomination list with 13 nominations. This achievement is second only to the 14 nominations of "Titanic" and "Comet Beauty" in the long history. Movie history classics such as "Loyal Soul" are tied for the second most nominated work in Oscar history.

"Shakespeare in Love" is not only as simple as surpassing "Saving Private Ryan" and "Trumen's World" as the biggest winner in the nomination stage, but also among the best in film history, showing a destructive posture. Everyone was taken aback.

Could it be said that... "Shakespeare in Love" has reached the height of the "Titanic" and the height of "Gone with the Wind"? But why does no one feel this way? Almost everyone is happily discussing the grandeur of the war scene of "Saving Private Ryan" and the human nature behind the war, the **** entertainment of "Trumen's World" and the urgency of chasing freedom, but no one can say The historical weight of the work "Shakespeare's Love History". Since when has Oscar been so "commercial"?

It can be said that after the Oscar nomination list came out, the world has been in chaos!

"Shakespeare in Love" dominated the nomination list with an absolutely strong posture. Six major awards including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Original Screenplay, etc., were all shortlisted in the final The competition, coupled with the best film editing, best soundtrack, best costume design, best art direction, best photography, best sound, best makeup and other technical awards, a total of 13 nominations, even showing a comparison Last year, the "Titanic" was even stronger-after all, "Titanic"'s advantages are in the technical department, and the main departments are still slightly inferior.

It can be said that with the exception of the best actor, "Shakespeare in Love" has been shortlisted for competition in almost all major departments. The magnitude of the momentum reminds people of the treatment received by many classics of movie history. Shocking, but even more puzzling, is Oscar going to change again? And it's still when everyone is unaware of it.

Immediately behind "Shakespeare in Love" is "Saving Private Ryan" who is considered to have surpassed "Schindler's List". The Normandy landing at the beginning of this work has been regarded as a classic of film history, and history has been written again. The super myth of Steven Spielberg. In the end, "Saving Private Ryan" received eleven nominations, and it is still one of the most champion-looking works on the Oscars.

"Saving Private Ryan" is obviously not competitive in the main departments due to the overall theme. The four nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, and Best Original Screenplay have not been able to keep up with the "Shakespeare Love History". "" in the footsteps; but the technical department is not inferior. Seven nominations including best film editing, best photography, best sound, best sound editing, best art direction, best soundtrack, and best makeup will be exhausted. Fully compete in various awards.

Another year-end hit "Trumen's World" followed closely with ten nominations, and did not show too much decline, and compared to "Saving Private Ryan", "Trumen's World" almost In every award, I had a head-on encounter with "Shakespeare in Love".

The main award department, "Trumen's World" has included all six nominations including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, and Best Original Screenplay. Corresponding to "Love History", "Trumen's World" lacks the ability to compete in the best actress category, but Nicole Kidman won the first Oscar nomination in her life with her outstanding performance, and won The call for awards is definitely not small.

In addition, "Trumen's World" also received nominations from four technical departments, including best film editing, best soundtrack, best photography, and best audio. However, these departments all need to face the strong performance of "Saving Private Ryan". Obviously, "Trumen's World" is the weaker side.

It is foreseeable that the competition between "Trumen's World" and "Shakespeare in Love" will be extremely fierce-from the Golden Globes all the way to the Oscars. Above the Golden Globes, the two seem to be evenly divided, but anyone who really understands the inside knows that "Shakespeare's Love History" has the upper hand-and still has the upper hand. What about the Oscars? At least during the nomination stage, "Shakespeare in Love" once again took the lead. "Trumen's World" is now placed in the position of an attacker. It is definitely not that simple to achieve a counterattack. Shenhua.

In addition to these troikas, "Thin Red Line" and "Beautiful Life" received seven nominations respectively, and "Elizabeth" received six nominations, which became the most shining works during the nomination stage.

Surprisingly, "Central Station", which shined at the Golden Globes, was completely ignored. It only received two nominations for best actress and best foreign language film. It was replaced by the Italian work "Beautiful Life". ". This work received zero nomination at the Golden Globe Awards, but it turned out to be at the Oscars, and the overall momentum can even be comparable to "Shakespeare's Love History".

"Beautiful Life" was not only shortlisted for the Best Foreign Language Film Award, but also shortlisted for the best film, best director, best actor, best soundtrack, best film editing, best original screenplay and other major awards, showing With strong competitiveness, it is very likely to become the biggest spoiler at this year's Oscars.

It is also worth mentioning that the "thin red line" has only two nominations at the Golden Globe Awards, but has attracted countless people with seven nominations in the Oscar stage. At least from the current distribution of nominations, the deviation between the Golden Globes and the Oscars has far exceeded expectations. Perhaps the name of the weather vane needs to be reconsidered.

In fact, although "Beautiful Life" and "Thin Red Line" did not receive enough attention at the Golden Globe Awards, the industry evaluations of these two works are very high. The former won the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival. The European Film Awards and the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards are highly acclaimed; the latter bravely captured the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival, and at the same time received unanimous praise from the academics, and its unique style has become many academies. The object of research.

The emergence of the two cannot even be called a "dark horse", but it should be said that it is a matter of course.

This is the overall situation on the nomination list, and detailed to the various awards, reveals more interesting details.

Among the five competing works for the best film, "Shakespeare in Love" and "Trumen's World" are tit-for-tat, "Saving Private Ryan" and "Thin Red Thread" are pinpoint wheat, and "Beautiful Life" is very good. I hope to be a player who changes the entire battle.

Originally, people’s attention was mainly focused on "Saving Private Ryan" and "Trumen's World". The outstanding performance of the two works in the summer archives made people lock the Oscar competition between the two early, but at the end of the year During the award season craze, the situation changed suddenly. First, the "Shakespeare Love History" suddenly emerged, and even came to the top to achieve an overtake. Now it has become the front runner; the "thin red line" is not to be outdone, and has a huge momentum, carrying the momentum of the Berlin Golden Bear Award. Launch a violent shock-no one should forget that "Death Row" made a breakthrough along this route three years ago.

As a result, the pattern has become extremely chaotic, not to mention that there is a acclaimed "Beautiful Life". The representative of this European film has almost captured the hearts of all European professional filmmakers—the power of foreigners in Hollywood is absolute. Can not be ignored.

"A Beautiful Life" is a very interesting work. Its subject matter, like "Saving Private Ryan" and "Thin Red Line", is locked in the story during World War II but its style However, it is divided into the comedy department like "Shakespeare's Love History" and "Trumen's World". The story presents profound themes in a humorous manner, and is bolder and absurd than "Trumen's World", almost reminiscent of it. Charlie Chaplin at his peak.

It can be seen that the competition of the five works is completely entangled, and the five nominees for the best director are precisely the filmmakers of these five works, plus the five candidates for the best film editing are also these five. The works, it can be seen that the momentum of the five works can go hand in hand, regardless of the overall quality, reputation, attention and so on.

At the 67th Oscars ceremony, the trio of "Forrest Gump", "Pulp Fiction" and "Shawshank's Redemption" was hailed as the most competitive awards ceremony in the past ten years, even after the second Ten years later, people still talk about this awards ceremony. But in fact, this is just a three-legged stand. The other two works "Four Weddings and One Funeral" and "Behind-the-Scenes Lies" are slightly inferior in overall momentum and cannot form a frontal confrontation.

But now, in the fight for the best film, there have been five works that are enough to keep pace. The five works are not weak, showing an absolutely strong posture. This is considered to be the first in film history since 1975. The second true death group!
