Exploiting Hollywood 1980
Chapter 188: Grouping together at the Oscars
"It is 4:30 p.m., Wednesday, March 29, 1989, and I am reporting to you from outside the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Tonight, the 61st Academy Awards will be held in this white auditorium behind me..."
The TV broadcast used the two minaret-shaped spires of the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles as the background for the live broadcast. The white marble building is very eye-catching. This organization, known as the Freemasonry of the Middle East, aims to promote the culture of the Middle East, so the architectural style is very similar to some religious facilities.
"Some stars have arrived early now. We see Jodie Foster, who is nominated for Best Actress for "The Untold Story". Ah, lovely Judy..."
The host's exclamation is justified. Jodie Foster wore a light blue off-shoulder dress today. With blonde hair, blue eyes, and fair skin, her face looks as pure as when she played a teenager, but her figure is already that of a mature and sexy woman.
She smiles very sweetly, which is related to her mentality. Jodie Foster hasn't made any praised movies for many years. Many years later, she was able to return to the Oscars as a guest, and she was happy from the inside out.
After graduating from Yale, Jodie Foster had not made any box office hits. She was already seriously considering retiring from the entertainment industry, as producers had already lost confidence in her box office. This time, the movie The Untamed only had one nomination, and according to history, it was almost impossible for it to win. Being able to come back and appear in front of millions of viewers, even if she retires later, there is nothing to regret.
"
The host saw Weaver in a white off-shoulder dress and immediately abandoned Jodie Foster. This is the hottest person today. "Gorillas in the Mist" was nominated for Best Actress, and "Working Girls" was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. In history, only four people have ever received this honor of being nominated for two acting awards. Moreover, all four of them received a little golden man.
"Sigourney, you are nominated for two awards tonight, which one do you prefer? "The TV camera was focused on Sigourney Weaver. Her long dress was prepared by Princess Diana's tailor. The royal tailor's level was very high, and the whole person exuded the elegance of an intellectual woman.
"Ahaha... First of all, the award was chosen by me, the judge, and I respect the result. I personally have no preference for the two roles, I like both..."
Sigourney Weaver rolled her eyes at this kind of question. It's as if I will definitely win the award? But before the broadcast camera, I can only talk nonsense.
The host seemed to understand that his question was unpopular, and he began to interview the stars who came over.
"Now, let's have some Blue Moonlight - Bruce Willis and his wife Demi Moore..."
It seems that although "Die Hard" has a good box office performance, in the eyes of the public, Bruce Willis' most famous role is still David in the Blue Moonlight Detective Agency. And his wife Demi Moore also made her first appearance in a big scene after giving birth.
In order to cover up her waist after giving birth, Demi Moore specially chose a black low-cut suit. Although her waist is much thicker, her bust is also One size bigger. That’s how celebrities make the most of their body.
“Next up is the famous director Ronald Lee and actress Diane Lane…”
Ronald kept smiling all the way, quietly beside Diane, using the dress he made for Diane, who was also wearing Princess Diana’s dressmaker, as a background.
He saw the questions the host had asked Sigourney Weaver on the TV across the street, and decided to just smile and not speak.
Diane walked through the pre-entry scene beautifully, and today she will definitely be included in the broadcast.
“Bruce, Demi…” Ronald arrived at the entrance and happened to meet Demi Moore and her husband there.
“Ronald…” Demi came over and hugged him. Ronald felt that her bulging chest was different from the previous touch, and suddenly blurted out “Didn’t you bring the child? ”
“Hahaha, Rumer is at home, with the nanny…” Bruce Willis took out his wallet and showed Ronald a photo of his daughter.
How should I put it? Their eldest daughter perfectly combines the characteristics of her mother and father. Demi Moore has very three-dimensional facial features, a slightly square chin, and a heroic look. But this child’s chin is more like Bruce’s. If it were a boy, he would be very handsome.
“Tom Cruise and his wife Mimi Rogers…” There was a commotion in front. Tom Cruise, who may be the star with the most fans today, is here.
Mimi Rogers had a perm with a high top and a big wave today. It seems that she didn’t wear flat shoes, making her a head taller than Cruise.
Ronald was a little surprised. Mimi Rogers is very careful to maintain Cruise's image.
They also came to greet Ronald. It was not good for three pairs of six people to block the door, so they walked in.
The star following behind was another Tom - Hanks and his new wife Rita Wilson. They also met because of the drama. Last year, Tom Hanks divorced his wife with two children and married her. Today, Rita Wilson came to the Oscars for the first time as Mrs. Hanks. She couldn't stop smiling from the bottom of her heart.
The venue for the award ceremony had much more spacious seats than the old venue. After Ronald and Diane came in, they saw that many nominees had already sat down. The organizing committee's arrangement was very clever, and they were well aware of the backgrounds of these nominees.
Maybe it's CAA, William Morris and other agencies that provide them with a lot of information. Some people who usually play well, have a common background, and have a common ethnicity will try to arrange them together.
For example, Alan Parker, the nominee for Best Director, is surrounded by actors of British background and European actors, such as the Swedish actor Max von Sydow, the nominee for Best Actor.
Dustin Hoffman is surrounded by some Jewish practitioners, such as Barry Levinson, the director of "Rain Man".
Of course, there is also the most conspicuous group of black people. The most famous among them, Eddie Murphy, who choked the organizers for not giving awards to black people last year, was not invited this year.
As for Ronald's surroundings, in addition to the main creators of "Working Girl", Melanie Griffiths, Sigourney Weaver, there are also some people who have no group background and no backers.
For example, Adrian Lane, who directed "Fatal Attraction", collaborated with Hollywood and made many erotic films, so Alan Parker's self-righteous British gang did not like him very much.
There is also the "grown-up" actor, Tom Hanks, who was nominated for Best Actor, and arranged their crew to be closer to Diane. Even female director Penny Marshall sat relatively close to Ronald.
These people all have one thing in common. They are not Jewish, and they have not joined any small groups based on their origins or interests. They are all left behind, and they are naturally closer to people like Ronald who are kind to others.
More celebrities came in one after another. Ronald was very popular and often had to stand up to say hello to subsequent guests. At exactly six o'clock in the evening, staff members in tuxedos began to fill in the empty seats of latecomers so that the empty seats would not be captured by the TV broadcast.
After a burst of classic Hollywood soundtrack, the entire awards ceremony began.
"Ladies and gentlemen, President of the American Academy of Film and Technology, Richard Kahn..."
Ronald was surprised when the ceremony began. Alan Carr, the producer, did not set up a host. A voiceover announced the name of the first guest, and Mr. Chairman walked to the stage by himself.
"Why did he want to award the award in the first place?" Diane was also confused. Chairman Richard Kahn, holding a large replica of the Oscar trophy, just said this?
"The first award is for Best Supporting Actress." Ronald looked at Richard Kahn and talked about his memories of attending the Oscars two minutes ago, and then invited the first guest of the day, TV star Tom Serik.
"Why did he go down with Oscar again?" Diane was confused again.
"Uh..." Ronald also felt that this year's awards process was too strange.
Last year, the Oscars invited comedian Chevy Chase to host, with disastrous consequences. The entire awards show was filled with vulgar, unfunny jokes.
This year, in order to correct a mistake, they actually went too far and didn’t set up any host at all? In this way, the guests come out one by one, and then introduce the next guest by the way.
For example, Tom Selick, who is on stage now, is the protagonist of the hit show "Hawaii". The person on stage is the presenter for the Best Supporting Actress award. He is also the leading actor of the hit show "Miami Vice". Don Johnson, and his "best friend," Melanie Griffiths.
Fortunately, Melanie and Tang were now in love, and they had a tacit understanding and talked about cross talk on stage. The story of the two of them getting married, having their marriage annulled by their mother, and then becoming lovers again many years later was so gossipy that it made the audience forget about the inexplicable cutscene just now.
The two teased themselves a lot about their previous relationship as husband and wife and now that they are together again. Don Johnson finally said that he should hurry up with the awards process and listen to the gossip of the two of them. He would go to the supermarket tomorrow to buy some gossip magazines and read on them how he was abducted by a UFO for six years.
Joan Cusack is also a nominee for the Oscar for Best Actress. She and Sigourney Weaver are a double hit. Also nominated was Frances McDormand for "Mississippi Burning." and Michelle Pfeiffer of "Join the Gang."
Because "Working Girl" had two nominees, the camera panned twice. Ronald showed a standard smile and clapped rhythmically.
"And Geena Davis in The Unexpected Passenger." Melanie Griffiths spoke the final nominee.
"Finally the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress goes to...Geena Davis," Don Johnson declared loudly. Today’s Oscars cannot say winner (Wner), but have to say the more neutral “Goes to”.
It is obviously the most competitive award, but it is made to look like it is not competitive, with no winners and no losers. In other words, everyone is a winner.
Ronald didn't know who would suffer better from this deception. Is it the nominees in person, or the audience in front of the TV?
"I think I want to thank the original author of the novel, and also my best acting coach, Royce London. And my other acting coach...my husband Jeff Goldblum..."
Geena Davis's lake blue evening dress is also from the Givenchy brand, which makes her look very noble and elegant.
Melanie Griffiths, the presenter behind the award, was not happy. Her handmade dress was compared with the other party. Geena Davis's diamond necklace also compares to her own ruby necklace.
The most important thing is that the role of "The Accidental Tourist" originally belonged to her. Later, she turned it down because of her manager's recommendation and played Ronald's "Working Girl". At that time, her agent told her that if she wanted to win an Oscar, she should play "The Accidental Tourist", and if she wanted to become famous and become a star, she should play "Working Girl".
It's hard to say whether she is a star now (a large part of the media reports are about her boyfriend Don Johnson). Geena Davis did win the Best Supporting Actress Oscar.
"Fortunately, I still have a nomination for the Best Actress", Melanie Griffith put away her thoughts, motioned to Geena Davis who had finished her speech, and went down the stairs together.
Today's award ceremony was very strange. No one reminded Geena Davis after she finished her speech, and the award presenter had to remind her.
