[US Entertainment] Actor

The end of October, although the box office of "The Departed Walker" gave the crew a shot in the arm, but the related work did not end there, especially for the producers, directors and actors, the popularity of the awards season will push them Pushed to another battlefield.

For Ebert and Leonardo, it was just the beginning.

This is Ebert's third major awards season since his film career, and it is considered the closest he has come to an Oscar in three years.

Intuitively, he and Leonardo have become each other's biggest rivals, which is a good thing, because the higher the buzz between Leonardo and Ebert during awards season, the more money the movie can get from it. The benefit is greater, although it is often more painful and joyful for the producers. After all, whether it is an Oscar, a Golden Globe or a Screen Actors Guild Award, two actors are selected for Best Actor at the same time, and the best result is only one of them. One won the award, and the other left sadly. If the judges were more cruel, it is very possible that both of them will be empty-handed.

During this period, Ebert and Leonardo met a little less frequently. Although as the protagonists of the same movie, when the movie is nominated for an important award, both of them will inevitably need to appear at the same time to cheer for the movie, but now After all, the two are direct competitors. Although there is no closer "enemy" than each other in Hollywood, the two chose to stay away temporarily.

A favorite for leading actor nominations this awards season, Ebert and Leonardo have similar jobs.

During the day, the schedule is full of various public relations activities and warm-up activities for nomination awards, and at night, there are receptions held by major film companies, as well as warm contacts with Oscar judges.Ebert has experienced these things in the past two years, and he is naturally familiar with them now. Leonardo has accumulated a lot of contacts in Hollywood over the past ten years, and his performance in "The Departed" is obvious to all, so during this period Although the work is a bit busy, it is within the acceptable range of the two of them.

After all, the pain of public relations is short-lived, but the happiness after winning the Oscar is permanent.

"Poor Ebert." Leaning against the wall covered with medieval oil paintings, Lin En silently commented, "The fight has just begun, although you and Leonardo have a deep friendship, they are fully exerting their strength To win the first trophy for Leonardo, I will naturally not be soft."

Ebert waved his fist: "I'm not worried at all. The only thing I worry about is whether Leo will cry after I win the award."

The relationship between Ebert and Leonardo has gradually become a semi-public secret in the two-person team. After all, the guys working in Hollywood have a sharper sense of smell than wolf dogs, although the two have never expressed it in public. The relationship between each other is exposed, but because the North American media has always taken the trouble to bring the two together, the team of the two has dealt with related scandals and emergencies more than once. After a long time, even the dullest member of the team can also be noticed.

Before this awards season, the teamwork behind Ebert and Leonardo was still very tacit.

But after the awards season came, Leonardo and Ebert's desire for trophies also infected their team. Cooperation immediately turned into competition, and even because they were familiar with each other, they were unwilling to lose to each other.

The relationship between the teams can partly explain Ebert and Leonardo's relationship.

They are the closest lovers, each other's favorite actors, but they are also each other's biggest competitors.

Even because they are lovers, they are even more unwilling to lose to each other in the job they love most as actors.

"In short, we will try our best to win the trophy."

Although the teams of Lynn and Leonardo have tried their best to create the effect of Leonardo and Ebert fighting each other, but in this year's awards season, Ebert and Leonardo are by no means the only protagonists .

Forest Whitaker, the actor of "The Last Dictatorship", this actor is not well-known in Hollywood, and the number of works is not too many, and his main roles are mainly supporting roles.The film, called "The Last Dictatorship," is director Kevin Macdonald's feature debut, and in a highly competitive awards season, the flick about political struggle and the previous two years of "Capote" , "Sideways" are similar, they are all out-and-out dark horses, but Forest Whitaker's acting skills are indeed outstanding. In the 80s, he was nominated for Best Actor at the Cannes Film Festival and Golden Globe Award. Hollywood is a place where black actors are discriminated against. Every black actor who can win an award is favored by virtue of his real strength.

Will Smith is also favored by major awards with the film "When Happiness Comes Knocking". Will Smith, who has been trying to transform in recent years, has already proved himself in "Boxing King Ali" He even brought his own son in "When Happiness Knocks on the Door", and his ambition for the awards season is naturally obvious.

In fact, the only thing Ebert can rely on this year is "The Departed", but Leonardo has two movies to help him in the awards season, and the other is "Blood Walker", which Ebert thought would be released next year or even the year after. Drill".Who knew that Warner, the publisher, was so impatient. When "The Departed" was still competing in the box office market, it couldn't wait to put the release of "Blood Diamond" on the agenda.

For Leonardo, this is actually not a good thing. Nominations for "Blood Diamond" and "The Departed" at the same time can certainly make him attract much attention throughout the awards season, but it can easily lead to vote splitting.

"It's not something I can decide." Leonardo curled his lips, "But my performance in "Blood Diamond" is still better than in "The Departed", just relying on "The Departed" The confidence is not too great, and "Blood Diamond" is double insurance."

"I think this might be a waste." Ebert gently squeezed Leonardo's shoulder, "If it is released next year, you can get one more Oscar nomination."

"What I want is awards. Even if there are 100 nominations, not one win is equal to zero."

"The history of the Oscars has not been 100 years, and you are already thinking about 100 nominations."

Leonardo tilted his head and raised his shoulders: "It's a little stronger. No matter how old Oscar is, my ideals and goals will not change."

He turned his head, with a thick cushion between his legs: "Ebert, do you want to take the opportunity to find out my secrets and kill me, you cunning fellow!"

A cushion flew over the top of his head and hit his back: "I will do this only if I have killed Forest Whitaker and Will Smith and Peter O'Toole, The most important thing is, dear Mr. Leonardo DiCaprio, your self-confidence is much stronger than imagined, and you are not the first competitor in my heart."

"Hmph!" Leonardo rolled his eyes at him, "But I am the most potential among your competitors. Ebert, you'd better be gentle with me, otherwise I will consider increasing the number of films, so that you Every year awards season sees me."

"Thinking about it, it's really a terrible thing..." Ebert raised his eyebrows, "But indeed, it seems that only you, Leo, can do such a naive thing."

"Cut~"

However, Ebert could tell that Leonardo was indeed in a happy mood.

In fact, for actors, especially Leonardo, who has been questioned, it is considered a success that his name can be mentioned again and again during the awards season.Oscar is certainly desirable, but only one actor can win this honor in a year. There are many excellent actors in Hollywood, but there is only one lucky one.It is impossible for a good actor to be underestimated because of his failure at the Oscars. Just like Ebert, although he failed to be shortlisted for several Oscars, he has always been a representative of post-80s actors and a young Hollywood actor. One of the few lines.

Ebert finished pinching Leonardo's shoulder, and then replaced Leonardo pinching Ebert.

"You disliked my level just now, but your level is obviously much worse than mine." Ebert complained, "Can you be a little lighter, my bones are about to be crushed by you."

The grip on the shoulders softened. Ebert just wanted to close his eyes and enjoy the comfort of this moment. The next moment, he suddenly felt an itchy feeling in his shoulders, thighs and armpits. He turned his eyes towards Leonardo. In the past, the hands on his body became more and more dishonest, constantly groping towards Ebert's usually more sensitive position.

Leonardo was playing vigorously, but his hands were held down by a pair of thinner hands that suddenly stretched out: "Dear Leo, you reminded me that we have not done it for a long time, how do you feel?" I can understand, but you probably don't realize how dangerous your actions are, especially for a man full of dirty thoughts—"

In the next second, Leonardo suddenly noticed that the pajamas that had just wrapped him tightly and buttoned up to the top button suddenly escaped his control.

His lover had already looked at him with dangerous eyes.

There is no doubt that he inspired his bestiality.

Leonardo finally came to his senses. During this period of time, due to the busy awards season and the promotion of "The Departed", they really haven't done it for a long time. The rest of the work was done in a hurry. Based on the past experience of the two of them, Ebert should indeed be very hungry.

First pajamas, then pajamas, and then Ebert's pajamas and pajamas. Leonardo had forgotten to ask Ebert what it means to be "full of dirty thoughts". He only knew that at a certain moment, there was Shouting and clamoring, he couldn't help climbing up the thin muscles, and weakly hugged the soft but full of strength waist, and yelled in a low voice, almost hoarse.
