[US Entertainment] Actor

Chapter 73 Hostile

As soon as the Golden Globe nomination list was announced, there was a wave of discussion in Hollywood. Any nominated work was evaluated by the media and film critics as good or bad. A lot of criticism.

Gary Rose's failure to win the best director is also the focus of several media attention.

Some media believe that this is a compromise of the Golden Globe Awards for the strong connections and power of the Coppola family in Hollywood-does the second work of a 32-year-old female director really deserve such high praise? "Lost in Translation" was produced by Francis F. Coppola and had Roman Coppola's name on the director's team. This movie that won almost every major award at the Golden Globes sounds like Coppola. How much of the product of the collective wisdom of the family really belongs to Sofia Coppola?

It is not uncommon for a son to inherit his father's career in Hollywood. Movie stars such as Michael Douglas and Robert Downey Jr. have been more or less influenced by their elders when they embarked on the road of acting. But before these actors really conquered the audience with their acting skills, The mainstream media in Hollywood dismissed them. As for the reason, it was very similar to the theory of "the second generation of officials" and "the second generation of riches" spread by Ebert's company in the future.

In the eyes of the media, these second-generation stars are always used to stealing other people's opportunities to add to their own honor book, which is why Sofia Coppola was questioned by some media after the Golden Globe nomination list was released.

The famous director's daughter has a criminal record.

In 1989, she won two Golden Raspberry Awards for her botched performance in "The Godfather Part III", which became the biggest failure of this most influential film series in Hollywood.And this role was snatched from Winona Ryder by her.

Winona Ryder is definitely the most regrettable female star in Hollywood. In 01, she ruined her most important career by stealing from a shopping mall. Before that, she was the most promising female star in Hollywood. At the age of 19, she was famous all over the United States for "Edward Scissorhands". Nominated for an Oscar, he starred in films such as "94 Years of Surprise" and "The Age of Innocence" that were all well received.

The actress always seems to be closely related to life tragedies such as being robbed of scenes and being cheated on.Francis F. Coppola gave her daughter the role that was supposed to be her at the last minute, and according to rumors, the "Shakespeare in Love" that won Gwyneth Paltrow an Oscar Winona Ryder was also originally invited, because Ryder's appearances in films such as "Little Women" and "The Age of Innocence" are very contemporary, and her performances are also excellent.But Paltrow came across the script and snatched it up.

Sofia Coppola's previous convictions made the media wonder whether "Lost in Translation" was nominated for a Golden Globe. What about the true strength of female directors?

In any case, the result is doomed, and Gary Rose and the crew of "The Pentium Age" can only swallow the bitter pill silently.

At this year's Golden Globe Awards, there are two nominated young actors who have attracted much attention.

One is Scarlett Johansson, who is only 19 years old.The actress who was born as a child star was nominated for Best Actress in a Drama and Best Actress in a Comedy at the Golden Globes this year. Although the two departments are very competitive, Scarlett's winning The odds are slim, but with two leading actress nominations, the actress has a bright future ahead of her.

The other one is naturally Ebert.At only 23 years old, he can be nominated for the best actor in the drama category with his outstanding performance in "The Pentium Era", which in itself is the best recognition of his strength.

The best actor in a drama category can be said to be the most competitive department in this year's Golden Globe Awards.Ebert's competitors include Oscar winners Russell Crowe and Ben Kingsley, three-time Oscar nominee Sean Penn, and Tom Cruise, who is well-known throughout the United States. Well, Ebert is the least well-known of the five nominees, but he doesn't think he is the weakest, at least against the famous Tom Cruise, he thinks he still has the strength to fight.

In order to celebrate Ebert's nomination for the Golden Globe, Mark specially made a table of dishes and opened champagne to celebrate Ebert.

"Russell Crowe, Tom Cruise... If I can appear at the award ceremony with them, I will die happily." Bradley winked at Ebert, "I think If you want their signatures, how many can you get at least?"

"You can take as many cards as you like." Ebert laughed. "It's best for the superstars who sign up to be upset and in a hurry. I'm the only one who can maintain a perfect image by then."

"Wow, Ebert, you are a crafty fellow." Mark brought a plate of pancakes from the kitchen, "but I admit, you must be the youngest and most watched one. Anyway, congratulations You got your first Golden Globe nomination and that's a great start, I think you could be bolder, how about the Oscars? Guys, let's bet on Ebert's Oscar Nominations, how about you?"

"I can also bet." Bradley took out 100 dollars from his wallet and put it heavily on the table.

The eyes of the people at the table turned to Lynn, who was slowly crossing the steak.The broker wiped his mouth slowly and took out 100 dollars: "Of course I also bet on Ebert, so what should I do now? Who will pay for our winnings?"

The eyes of the three turned to Ebert at the same time.Ebert opened his eyes and spread his hands: "I didn't force you, what does this have to do with me?"

"My dear Ebert, you are a big star, and even a bet of 1 to 100 is nothing to you. Why not give your poor poor friend a favor?"

Ebert slowly took it out of his pocket... When he did this, the other three looked at him expectantly.Ebert finally took out 1 cent from his pocket, and he smiled slightly: "Sorry, I can only sponsor 1 cent."

The others immediately despised: "Cut!"

The Golden Globes are much more than just an awards ceremony.In fact, within a week of the announcement of the award nominations, Lynn quickly contacted Armani's brand designer to prepare Ebert's dress for the Golden Globes.In addition, Universal Pictures, which promotes "The Pentium Era", will not let the film always be at a disadvantage during the awards season. Oscar's campaign adds weight.

After the dinner with Mark and the others, Ebert received a call from Leonardo.

Unlike Mark and the others who were full of blessings to Ebert, this Hollywood first-line actor's words contained a hint of jealousy towards Ebert. Although he tried his best to conceal it, Ebert knew this friend very well. This guy is far more sensitive about awards than anyone.Sure enough, Leonardo's first sentence was to ask Ebert to treat him: "Ebert, the representative of the post-80s actor and Golden Globe nominee, can you comfort my poor old heart with a big meal? Although I'm only 29, and I'm too old to be left behind by you young people."

In fact, after the nominations for this year's Golden Globe Awards came out, "Premiere" magazine made a special report on Hollywood actors born in the 80s. !”.

Especially as Natalie Portman, Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway and other actresses have emerged in Hollywood, more and more people born in the 80s have participated in the shooting of various movies.In terms of male actors, only Ebert is currently the leading actor, but this is also in line with the norm in Hollywood. It is really not easy for male actors to get ahead, but once they can reach the front-line position, the career of leading actors is often much longer than that of female actors.

"At least in terms of age, I leave you far behind."

The tone of someone on the other end of the phone immediately became sharp, which reminded Ebert of the description of Leonardo by his sworn enemy "National Enquirer"-"Although Leonardo likes to play on the screen Some vicissitudes of character, but his voice is sweet like a junior high school student who just graduated."

"Are you mocking me for being old? Oh, my God, this is really a desperate thing. Yes, compared to you born in 80, I was born in 74. I am indeed old." Leonard Dow's voice was full of anger, "I was going to congratulate you on being nominated for a Golden Globe, but now I'm so angry, disappointed, and angry, I've decided, Albert Dawson, that you lent me Toby's DVD I won't give you back one, not one!"

Ebert sighed: "So, what do you want to eat?"

"Riverside Coffee?" Leonardo thought for a long time, and finally came up with the name of the shop.

"What do you want to do? Do you want me to propose to you there?" Ebert almost spit out the water he just drank. "Riverside Cafe" is a famous restaurant in Southwest New York. It opened in 1977. Since then, it has enjoyed a good reputation for its viewing advantages and has become one of the most famous places for marriage proposals in the United States.

If Leonardo had been a woman, Ebert might have had a nice proposal dinner there with him, but if they actually planned to have a meal there, the whole Hollywood gossip media would explode!

"Why didn't I propose to you?" As soon as the words came out, Leonardo realized that his entanglement was in the wrong direction, and he pinched his forehead: "Sorry, I was confused for a while."

"Why don't you try Japanese food?" Ebert made a suggestion, "I've recently become interested in Japanese food."

Leonardo felt that he could win the game back at this time, so he laughed at Ebert mercilessly: "Because of "Lost in Translation"? I know, you have a big feud with that movie recently. Poor Ebert, although you have been nominated for Best Actor at the Golden Globe Awards, you still have a huge mountain to cross before that, Bill Murray and his "Lost in Translation."

"Why is the topic of each chat so weird, Leo, is this your fault or my fault?" Seeing that the daily mutual ridicule would continue, Ebert hurriedly pressed the pause button.

"Because we are naturally hostile. There are many reasons, one, you are young and I am old, two, you are thin and I am fat, three, you competed with me on "The Aviator", and four, you have a plan to steal Toby Trending, five, you got nominated for this year's Golden Globes..."

"Hey! Mr. Leonardo DiCaprio! You've been nominated for a Golden Globe a few times already!"

Mr. Leonardo DiCaprio said that when he wanted to express his anger, he didn't need any reason at all.

Ebert could only suffer in silence.

Before Leonardo could break free from the crew of "The Aviator" and enjoy the dinner graciously invited by Ebert, on January 1, the 26st American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards, which attracted worldwide attention, were grandly held at the Beverly Hills Hilton Hotel , the nominees and award presenters appeared on the red carpet in costumes, and the scene was suddenly star-studded.

Ebert, still in decent Armani menswear, stepped onto the red carpet with the crew of "The Pentium Era".

He met many acquaintances at the Golden Globes this year.Al the old man won a nomination for the best actor in a TV movie at this Golden Globe Awards. The old man looks a lot fatter than in "White Night Chase". His slightly long hair makes him look like an old punk Son.Johnny Depp was also nominated for the Best Actor in a Comedy for his outstanding performance of Jack Sparrow. Among all the commercial blockbuster actors released in the summer, only Johnny was nominated for the Golden Globe Award , which is enough to prove his grasp of the role of Jack Sparrow.
