In 1975, the situation in Hollywood changed. The emergence of "Jaws" completely changed the pattern of commercial films. The term "summer file" was officially born, including commercial film shooting methods, packaging methods, and promotional methods. The earth-shaking changes made Hollywood start to accelerate like a high-speed train. And this year has become the most memorable one of the long Oscar years!

At the forty-eighth Oscar, "Jaws" carried the power to shake the entire historical process and was shortlisted for the best film competition; Stanley Kubrick's career peak work, hailed as the most perfect work "Children in Troubled Times" (Barry.) "Strong finalists competed for the final competition, and there was no end to the clamor for awards; Robert Altman, who has won numerous awards for decades but never missed the Oscar, is the pinnacle of satirizing world conditions" Nashville () "Hardly sought after by the academy; the masters of comedy conflict Sidney Lumet and Al Pacino collaborated on the "Hot Day Afternoon", which has been recorded in history and successfully occupied a seat; Milos Foreman's "Flying over the lunatic asylum" shows perfect standards, profound thinking, and absolute classics in film history.

From "Nashville" to "hot afternoon", from "children in troubled times" to "great white sharks" to "flying over the lunatic asylum". Whenever people mention the forty-eighth Oscar, the first reaction is: I'm blinded!

Faced with such an ultra-luxury nomination lineup, almost everyone can not easily make a decision. The duel between Stanley Kubrick and Robert Altman is enough to go down in history; and "hot afternoon" and "Great White Shark" "Pushing commercial films to the extreme, truly opening the golden age of Hollywood, far more historical weight than the box office wave set off by "Titanic" last year; "Flying over the lunatic asylum" is regarded as a classic by countless people. The classics, the film perfectly combines the script, the role and the core of the idea, so that the charm of the film art is brought to the extreme.

"Any movie has the qualification to aspire", this sentence is the most appropriate and most appropriate description for the 48th Oscar. This is an Oscar with no winners and no losers. Even if "Flying Over the Cuckoo's Asylum" wins the best picture, best director, best actor, best actress, and best adapted screenplay, there is no dispute.

It is not that people think that other works are not good enough, but that the victory of any work is a pity for the other four works. Many years later, "Great White Shark", "Children in Troubled Times", "Hot Day Afternoon" and "Nashville" are still talked about by people. The precipitation of time makes these works still shine in the long river of history. An Oscar statuette can't define their success or failure, but let the forty-eighth Oscar showdown go down in history.

Whenever people want to describe the fierce competition for this Oscar, they will always use the 48th Oscar as a benchmark, "driving for Miss Daisy", "born on July 4th", "Death Poetry Club" This was the case for the 62nd confrontation with "My Left Foot", the 67th confrontation with "Forrest Gump", "Pulp Fiction", and "Shawshank's Redemption".

But in fact, whether it is the 62nd or the 67th, the intensity of competition is far from comparable to that of the 48th. The forty-eighth is the death group in Oscar history, the real death group, and the unique death group so far.

However, all of this is about to change this year. For the second time in movie history, the true death group has appeared!

Before the Oscar nomination list is announced, people are not sure about this. The parallel pattern of "Saving Private Ryan" and "Trumen's World" is not enough to produce a dead group: because they also need three other strong competitions. By.

Immediately afterwards, "Shakespeare's Love History" almost sprung up in a mysterious development trajectory. Before people realized what was going on, it surpassed the two direct competitors and became the biggest favorite of Oscars. Ssangyong drama beads immediately changed. It became a tripartite.

Soon after, the "thin red line" and "beautiful life" came from behind, and they were among the top five with unanimous reputations, and joined forces to form the death group.

These five works have formed a high degree of agreement in the main awards: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Film Editing, these three awards representing the overall level of the film, and the candidates for the five nominated seats have maintained a perfect agreement. At the same time, all five works were nominated for screenplays. Except for "Thin Red Line" which won the nomination for best adapted screenplay, all the other four works were nominated for best original screenplay. The fierce competition was jaw-dropping.

It is no exaggeration to say that the competition between these five works reminds people of the 48th Oscar.

Whether it is the "thin red line" or "Saving Private Ryan", the two war works have reached a whole new level; whether it is "Shakespeare's Love History" or "Trumen's World", the quality of the two musical comedy works is extraordinary; "A Beautiful Life" combines the profound heaviness of war and the light-hearted banter of comedy. Is it really going to be a counterattack?

The best work may not be the last laugh, but the one who laughs last must be one of the best. And this year’s five nominated works are equally vigorous, between the voices of Xuanzhen, and the publicity... really can The dominant strength factor has been weakened. The strength of "Trumen's World" and "Saving Private Ryan" is undoubtedly beyond the other three works. However, since the summer archives have been released, the publicity has declined, and people have been affected by it. The danger of forgetting; on the contrary, the "shakespeare love history", "thin red line" and "beautiful life" that came from behind have become the focus of heated discussions during the end of the year.

All of this makes the 71st Oscar full of countless suspense, and the momentum of the death group is enough to cause cardiac arrest.

However, if "Shakespeare's Love History" is the last laugh, this work with the weakest overall strength will occupy the commanding heights of the nomination stage. This is bound to become a big joke: the quality of "Shakespeare's Love History" is really true. Is it so good? Not only has it surpassed the two super-high-level WWII works of "Thin Red Line" and "Beautiful Life", but also surpassed "Trumen's World" and "Saving Private Ryan"? This sounds like a fantasy.

However, this is the death group. No one can predict the ending. Even if "Shakespeare Love History" and "Beautiful Life" are called dark horses, they are also dark horses with outstanding strength. Any one of the five works has the possibility of winning. , And the completely unpredictable ending is the greatest charm and highlight of the death group.

In addition, among the four major awards in the acting department, it can definitely be said that there are a lot of highlights, and it has the potential to be called the group of death!

In the much-anticipated Best Actor category, all the suspense is focused on whether "Trumen's World" can win a place for Hugo, allowing the actor who is not yet thirty-two years old to write his own history again?

The American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences gave their answer: Yes, Hugo's brilliant performance in "Trumen's World" is worthy of his sixth acting nomination!

Hugo will work with Tom Hanks of "Saving Private Ryan", Ian McLean of "Gods and Beasts", Roberto Bernini of "A Beautiful Life", and "American X Files" (.. X Edward Norton competed.

This luxurious lineup also makes people excited. Just the duel between Hugo and Tom can be called Mars hit the earth.

The two most successful actors in the 1990s are currently in the hands of two acting golden figures; and interestingly, they are still the same agent; at present, both of them are standing at the top of the Hollywood pyramid. Actors, power and influence are second to none, so in almost every aspect the two people are placed together for comparison. Unlike the competition between Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt and Hugo, it is more of an entertaining nature. The competition between Hugo and Hanks is entirely a rivalry of strength.

The two had faced a head-on confrontation before. At the 67th Oscars, Tom defeated Hugo of Pulp Fiction with the help of "Forrest Gump", and achieved the re-election of the actor, writing brilliantly; now, Hugo's development It has been fully mature, and even has realized the overtake of Tom, the confrontation between the two is naturally full of suspense. Not to mention, "Trumen's World" and "Saving Private Ryan" were originally two contenders in the ultimate showdown.

Ian is about to turn sixty years old this year. He is an absolute big-name figure in the UK. Three years ago, "Richard III" had already dedicated a wonderful performance Now with "Gods and Beasts" To win the first Oscar nomination, his strength is undoubted, and his voice is undoubted; and Roberto turned out to be a "beautiful life". He is a director, producer, actor and screenwriter for his entire life, and he is strong in any award. Competitors, especially the acting department where European actors shine, he has the absolute strength to win.

In addition, Edward Norton is definitely not a good stubble that can be ignored. Although he is only 29 years old this year, he relied on his debut "First Fear" two years ago to make a blockbuster, and he was nominated for the best supporting actor in the Oscar competition. Won the praise that all new actors can win, and now relying on "American X Files" to win the Oscar for best actor qualification, his style of literary temperament and cult temperament mixed together is unique.

It can be said that although Hugo and Tom were slightly ahead in the battle for the actor, they were both too close and too close to the time of the last prize, and their voices were weakened, which made them return to other competitors. At the same starting line, the final competition of the five people was neither an absolute weak nor an absolute leader. It could be called another death group, which continued the Oscar tradition of "The Suspense of the Movie King" once again.

The reason why this year’s Oscars has been classified as a dead group is not only because the competition for the best film, best director, and best actor is fierce, but also because the other major awards are not weak!
