Chapter 756： American endgame
The seventy-ninth Oscars ceremony is extremely long. This is not only because most important awards lack fierce competition. There is no suspense beforehand, and there is no surprise in the event. If there is no host for the first time in the Oscars Alan DeGeneres is hard to gag, wondering how many people will fall asleep without waiting for the curtain to fall.
Long waiting will also slow down the pace of time. The more urgent the desire for results, the more unbearable the waiting process will be. For many people, all the “gold content” of the 79th Academy Awards is Hidden in the last 10 minutes.
On the surface, what they care about is whether the best director is Martin Scorsese or Clint Eastwood? Is the best film "The Infinite Walker" or "Tongtian Tower"? This is almost the only suspense that this Oscar can provide.
However, in fact, what they really want to know is whether Martin Scorsese, who has been neglected by the Oscars, will continue to be his uncrowned king this evening or become a legend.
For the answer to this mystery, they willingly waited for 4 hours.
For this mystery, Martin Scorsese waited 27 years.
When Ryan and Nicole in a big red one-shoulder evening gown walked into the backstage together and saw George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Francis Coppola preparing to appear as award-presenting guests, they understood There is no suspense about the attribution of the best director.
Perhaps the film academy also realized that a single award guest is not enough to award Martin Scorsese, so they invited Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Francis Ford Coppola. Bit.
Back then, Martin Scorsese and these three were collectively known as the "Four Great Young Directors", and then tied for the top four directors in the 1980s. If this time they meet on the stage of the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles...
In order to increase the attractiveness of the Oscars ceremony and get rid of the dilemma of declining ratings year by year, the college has really worked hard.
Ryan and Nicole didn't say much, and greeted the three with a smile. Waiting at the entrance on the edge of the stage.
When the announcement sounded in the theater, George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, and Francis Coppola filed onto the stage, and the Kodak Theater burst into violent applause, as long as it’s not a fool, at this time You can surely guess where the best director belongs.
"It's more like a lifetime achievement award." Nicole leaned closer and said in a low voice, "We two are also part of the award-giving guests."
"Don't forget those things Martin said in Europe some time ago." Ryan reminded Nicole, "For his own people, the college must express its importance in the most solemn way."
Although the envelope in Nicole's hand was not opened, Ryan could guess it. The best film they are going to award must be Martin's "Infinite Walkers".
The college invited him and Nicole to award the best film, and it was more than just being the guest of honor.
When Martin Scorsese promoted "The Infinite Walker" in Europe last year, the European media headed by the French "Le Figaro" once publicly questioned Martin Scorsese at a press conference-could it be that person? Did the directors who filmed "Cruel Street", "Taxi Driver", and "Angry Bull" really sell themselves to Hollywood?
And old Martin replied in a categorical tone-I am an American director, I am a Hollywood director!
Even when the European media questioned the Oscars on the spot, he said-I have watched every Oscar awards ceremony on TV since I was a child, and he grew up with me. This thing does have indescribable magic for me!
In his words. Full of protection of Hollywood, Oscars, and American films. With his status in the film industry today, speaking these words, the college will naturally give him a grand honorary ceremony.
"Today the three of us are standing on the stage." Francis Coppola said first on the stage. "It's because we all know the excitement of getting the best director."
"It was the most beautiful moment in my life." Spielberg answered.
"Wait..." George Lucas looked at the two people separately. "I have never won this award."
There was a burst of laughter in the theater, and Spielberg said in the laugh, "Then what are you doing here?"
"I don't know." George Lucas gradually brought the topic to the award. "But I think it's better to gain than to give."
"That's strange!" Spielberg and Francis Coppola said at the same time.
"The following is the list of nominations for the best director." The three people ended this little talk show, "Agado Gonzalez Inarido "Sky Tower", Martin Scorsese "The Infinite Walker" ". Clint Eastwood, "Letter from Iwo Jima," Stephen Friars "Queen", Paul Greengrass "Flight 93."
"The winner is..." Spielberg opened the envelope, and there was no suspense in the answer, "Martin Scorsese!"
At this moment, only he himself understood how old Martin felt. The audience and guests who stood up gave a warm applause. Ryan and Nicole were also applauding.
On stage, Martin Scorsese embraced George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and Francis Coppola in turn, and then stood in front of the microphone.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you..."
A long list of thanks popped out of his mouth. The director who always passed by the best director of Oscars finally realized his Oscar dream with a gangster film highly rated in North America. .
"Can you check the envelope again? Did I really win the award? I mean, I can't control myself after taking the award given to me by the college, and it is the honor given to me by my old friends! We have been dating for 37 years. I am so touched, so touched."
"First of all, thank you Ryan Jenkins and Disney for transferring the right to adapt this script to me, and thank you the actors and staff who worked with me..."
After a long list of thanks, Martin Scorsese seems to be a summary of these years, "I also want to say thank you to those who have been blessing me over the years. There are many strangers in it. You know, I used to People will make irresponsible remarks to me when I walk on the street. You will encounter this situation when you walk into a doctor’s office or anywhere."
"They said,'You should get an Oscar.' I went to take an X-ray, and the doctor said to me,'You should get an Oscar.' I said'thank you' to them. I have been walking with me for many years. Friends, as well as many friends who came to the scene tonight, all wish me this award, and so do my family, I thank you. This moment is reserved for you."
With the sound of music, Ryan and Nicole walked towards the stage hand in hand, nodded gently with the four directors who came across, and stood in front of the microphone amidst applause.
"It's incredible to be able to stand in this place where the Queen of England just stood."
Just after Nicole’s voice fell, Ryan continued, “It will be an unforgettable memory to stand here and witness Martin Scorsese winning the Oscar for Best Director, Golden Man.”
"Ryan, can you repeat the nomination list for the best picture for us?"
"Okay, right now."
After Nicole stepped away, Ryan stood opposite the microphone, "The Sky Tower" Jon Chilik and Steve Goring, "The Infinite Walker" Graham King and Martin Scorsese, "Letters from Iwo Jima" Clint Eastwood and Steven Spielberg, "Little Lady of the Sunshine" David Fredley and Peter Salaf, "The Queen" Andy Harris and Klee Steen Langen."
"Then the winner is..." Ryan returned the position to Nicole. Nicole opened the envelope and glanced down. The answer was no surprise, "The Infinite Walker," Graham King and Martin? Scorsese."
The Kodak Theater once again thundered with applause, and Martin Scorsese and "The Infinite Walker" became the biggest winners tonight.
One of the two producers came from the stage and the other came up from the backstage. Ryan and Nicole delivered the two golden figures to them, ending the only mission of this Oscar.
This evening, Martin Scorsese is the biggest legend. Oscar gave the 4 figurines of "Infernal Walker" in one breath, best picture, best director, best adapted screenplay, and best editing.
Although before the awards ceremony, many media are saying that this year's Oscar is the most international and most diverse one, but the final result proves that the Oscar will ultimately be an American and Hollywood awards ceremony.
Although, the works of the two Mexican directors "Sky Tower" and "Pan's Labyrinth" received 13 nominations; although like "The Queen" and "The Last Tyrant" are both at the Venice Film Festival and the Toronto Film Festival Popular videos from.
However, this is North America, this is Hollywood, the world's largest exporter of culture and values.
The ultimate victory of a purely American movie like "Infernal Walker", coupled with the history of African American pop music in "Dream Girl", the American family warmth of "Little Sunshine" and "The Uncoverable Truth" which criticizes the US government's environmental protection policy The nature of Oscars is still the embodiment of American movies and American values.
Just as a certain director on the other side of the Pacific lost the nomination for "Full of Golden Armour in a City", foreign films wanting to be recognized by the Oscars must meet Hollywood's aesthetic standards and reflect American values. Maybe it won't be recognized by North American audiences, but it can make a difference in some awards.
For example, the German film "Eavesdropping Storm", although the North American box office is very mediocre, it took away the best foreign language film from this awards ceremony.
In short, the seventy-ninth Oscar started with an open and globally diverse nomination, but ended in a very American way. (To be continued...) ()
