Chapter 350: Nomination Luncheon

Seek starting point subscription, monthly ticket, collection, recommendation ticket

The Golden Globe Awards have just come to an end, and the North American awards season has once again entered the next climax, which is even more important than the Golden Globe Awards.

Every year after the Golden Globe Awards, within a few days, Oscar will announce the list of nominations, which is the traditional Oscar nomination luncheon.

For many ordinary actors, being nominated for an Oscar is almost tantamount to getting tickets to the Oscars.

As for the awards PR!

Not everyone can spend a lot of money to promote the Oscars, and sometimes the competition is too strong, and some people choose to give up.

For example, for this year's Oscar for best foreign language film, Orion Films paid a large amount of public relations funds for it, and many foreign language films did not have much expectation for the next awards public relations.

It's not that there is no hope, but that there is no need to spend millions of dollars, or even tens of millions of dollars in public relations expenses.

Some foreign language films may not have so many box office worldwide.

This time Ryan did not choose to refuse to attend, but came to the nomination luncheon as scheduled.

It is said to be a luncheon, but it is not at noon, but starts around five o'clock in the afternoon.

This year, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences put the nomination luncheon at the Beverly Hilton Hotel, and booked a huge ballroom.

There is a red carpet at the entrance of the hotel, and Hollywood stars and crews pass by from time to time, with a large number of media reporters on both sides.

Walking through the red carpet, Ryan refused to be interviewed by the media, and went straight into the Hilton Hotel ballroom, where he sat at a table with Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise, Sofia Coppola and others.

Nicolas Cage didn't come, he took his son to Hawaii for vacation.

The format of the Oscar nomination luncheon is somewhat similar to the Golden Globe Awards ceremony. Both are in the form of a banquet. The banquet hall is filled with round tables with a lot of food, drinks and so on.

Everyone can taste it at will.

But generally, the celebrities who come here will pay attention to their manners. At most, they will drink a little champagne or red wine occasionally, and they will not really have a big meal.

Especially female stars hardly touch any food, and they don't have any intention to eat or drink.

Don't look at everyone talking and laughing on the surface, very relaxed, but in fact they are just hiding their tension,

After all, no one wants to be disappointed.

This is an Oscar nomination, not a Golden Globe nomination.

Compared with Golden Globe nominations, the criteria for Oscar nominations are much clearer.

The Golden Globes are sometimes very weird, and the criteria for the awards may change at any time.

As for the wind vane of Oscar!

It is even more difficult to say that the overlap rate of the two awards has not been very high.

The real barometer of the Oscars is the guild awards. Most of the guild award judges are almost members of the academic school, and the overlap rate between the two is frighteningly high.

Ryan glanced around and saw many familiar faces, such as Stephen Spielberg joking with Jeffrey Katzenberg, Roberto Bernini and others.

However, David Geffen did not seem to be seen.

There has been a rift between the Big Three at DreamWorks.

And Harvey Weinstein, glum-faced, sat at a dining table next to members of the "It's Always Sunny" crew.

In addition, there are George Lucas and others, as well as a lot of crews and actors from all over the world.

The original "There is always a sun", the heroine of this film is Charlize - Theron.

Of course, with the current status of Charlize Theron, it is naturally impossible to star in a low-cost film with an investment of only 24 million US dollars, and the crew cannot afford her salary.

After taking a look, Ryan withdrew his gaze, greeted the crew members of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" at the next table, and introduced Angelina Jolie and Tom Cruise to them.

Compared with the confident Ryan, the crew members of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" are somewhat worried.

After all, the Oscars are not the Golden Globes, and the intensity of competition between the two is quite different.

If it can get multiple Oscar nominations, it can play a big role in the box office trend of the film.

If you return empty-handed, you will face cynicism from the media.

The lead actor of the film, Zhou Dafa, glanced at Ryan's side, and whispered to Li Ang: "In the name of the crew, can you invite them to come and sit together for a while!"

He has long wanted to break into Hollywood, but unfortunately he has not been able to do so.

However, Jackie Chan, who is as famous as him, almost ranks among the first-line stars in Hollywood, and even Li has successfully entered Hollywood and starred in several films one after another.

"It's hard."

"With my position in Hollywood, the other party will not easily accept the invitation." Li An shook his head, and then glanced at Zhang Ziyi and Yang Ziyu who were opposite, unless they invited them alone.

However, it seems that he has no interest in them.

"Then it will work!" Zhou Dafa continued to ask.

"Success, he is different from us." Ang Lee said very directly: "With his current commercial value, he is worthy of the attention of any Hollywood star and film company."

Zhou Dafa nodded silently and didn't say anything more.

The box office of "Rush Hour 2" is really amazing, and Orion Pictures is preparing a third sequel filming plan.

"Angelina, Tom!"

"Do you have any ideas!" Ryan asked looking at the two.

Angelina Jolie won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress, Tom Cruise won the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor, and both have applied for Oscar nominations for Best Supporting Actor and Actor.

"I?"

"See luck."

Angelina-Jolie wore a red wrap-breasted evening gown with a precious emerald necklace at the neck that fell over her impressive chest.

This dress is not very long, not reaching the knees, revealing a pair of long and thin legs, and a pair of red high heels under her feet.

It looks like it gives people a graceful and luxurious temperament, but it is also very sexy.

"If you get nominated soon, you can try public relations." She didn't have too much expectation for this.

Tom Cruise shrugged and said bluntly: "I don't have much interest in supporting actor awards."

"Magnolia" is a film produced by New Line Films, in which Tom Cruise played a supporting role. The protagonist of this film is Jeremy Blackman.

So a supporting role award is not worth asking him to spend a lot of money on public relations.

What's more, recently he and his wife Nicole Kidman have officially separated, and there have been some conflicts with his agent, so he has no energy to publicize the Oscars for the time being.

Several people chatted for a while, and the host began to announce the nomination list.

The nominees for Best Film Editing are, "Tariq Anwar "American Beauty," Lisa Zeno-Cherkin "There's Always a Sunshine..."

Nominated for Best Original Score, "Thomas Newman "American Beauty," Rachel Portman "It's Always Sunny," Gabriel Yard "The Talented Ripley..."

The nominees for Best Art Direction are, "David Groopman, Beth Rubino "It's Always Sunny," Roy Walker, Bruno Cesari "The Talented Ripley"…"

Although several important award nominations have yet to appear, the three films "American Beauty", "There's Always a Sun" and "The Talented Ripley" have already become the most popular films nominated for this year's Academy Awards.

For a moment, everyone's eyes fell on Stephen Spielberg and Harvey Weinstein from time to time.

Steven Spielberg doesn't even look at Harvey Weinstein, and he's perfectly at ease.

A few days ago, he explicitly rejected Harvey Weinstein's request. It is impossible for "American Beauty" to give up any competition for an important Oscar award.

In contrast, Harvey Weinstein is much more sympathetic. Don’t think that he can dominate the independent film circle, but he is of no use to Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks.

There are many people in Hollywood who can ignore him, and Steven Spielberg and DreamWorks are one of them.

"interesting!"

Ryan couldn't help chuckling, "It seems that this time, the famous Oscar pusher is about to meet a powerful opponent."

"American Beauty" is produced by DreamWorks, and "It's Always Sunny" and "The Talented Ripley" are produced by Miramax Pictures.

"It's a pity that they are all technical awards, otherwise it would be a good show." Sofia Coppola felt a little regretful.

"Sophia, apparently you forgot one thing."

Ryan reminded: "Not counting "The Talented Ripley", this film is not the focus of Miramax Pictures, and "American Beauty" and "There is Always a Sunshine" are DreamWorks and Miramax Pictures. key research film."

"The next two films will definitely be nominated for important awards, or even be nominated at the same time."

"Ryan is right." Tom Cruise nodded.

Regardless of the influence of DreamWorks or Miramax Films, it is almost not too difficult to be nominated for important awards.

What's more, these two films have obviously won the support of many Oscar judges.

As for the final result!

It depends on the network resources and public relations capabilities of the two film companies.
