[US Entertainment] Best Director

After bailing Prairis, Eddie threw her back to her apartment, and he talked to the lawyer for a long time.

Whether it's a big deal or a small thing about Prairis.

The drunk whose head was broken by her has already woken up. The stick from Prairis was not heavy, and it didn't even cause actual damage to him, it just made him faint for a while.At this time, the drunk has no time to take care of Prairie, because he is facing the prosecution of Shailene Woodquay.

"So, what do I do if I'm going to disassociate Prairie from this whole thing?" Eddie asked.

"Get rid of the relationship completely?" The lawyer raised his eyebrows in confusion, "Hey, Eddie, even if I don't know about those public relations matters, I also know that the current public opinion is in your favor. Disconnect?"

"Because of Weinstein." Eddie frowned. "I had a little conflict with him before."

"Are you afraid of his black PR?" the lawyer asked.

Eddie didn't answer, but the lawyer could tell from his drawn brow.

He was indeed afraid.

The lawyer raised an eyebrow.

Even though he is not a Hollywood person, as a Hollywood lawyer, he probably knows something about Weinstein.For example, during the awards season every year, Weinstein will blacken his opponent to pieces, and put all the politically correct things he has done in his life on the bright side.

But Prairie's incident is not a "bad thing", because from the starting point, she was trying to save a dying woman who was beaten by a drunk.

Judging from the popularity of Chaoying, people, not only Hollywood people, everyone eats this set-isn’t a man who dares to protect the weak with practical actions a real Marvel hero?

"I still think that being honest and open is the right choice. After all, the paparazzi have already posted this matter on the Internet, and various media have reported it. Now it seems to cover up the matter." The lawyer said.

Eddie frowned.

"Think about it. I'll go first," said the lawyer.

"Okay." Eddie replied.

After sending the lawyer away, Eddie returned to the living room.

Opened a report on the incident.

All the positive comments and flooded support for Preris have spread almost all over the Internet.

indeed.

This matter cannot be covered up.

Pressing it down now will only make things that were not wrong in the first place blurred.

After thinking for a long time, Eddie made a call.

"Hi Scarlett, I want to ask you a favor."

**

The next day.

After Pryris finished washing and opened the curtains, he found that the downstairs was densely packed with paparazzi, comparable to when he was just nominated for an Oscar.

......

I glanced at my watch.

At 9:03, there are still twelve hours until the Oscar nomination list comes out.

Although yesterday's response to her brave behavior was very good on the Internet, Prairie knew that she probably had no hope for this year's Oscar. After all, those old guys in the academy didn't care what she did, they only knew her Into the police station.

Grab a sandwich from the fridge.

Prairis sat on his seat and flipped through his phone in boredom.

As soon as I opened Twitter, I found that my inbox was overcrowded.

Kate Winslet, Meryl Streep, Keira Knightley, and even Natalie Portman, who has never met, and Marvel, who can't hit eight poles, all tweet as Prairie Appreciate yesterday's action.

The other party involved in the case, Shailene Woodquay, also tweeted her thanks to Prairie in the early hours of yesterday, claiming that if there was no Prairius, she would have been strangled to death by her ex-boyfriend yesterday.

For a while, Prairis's Twitter has inexplicably gained a lot of fans, and most of them are feminist fans.

Alger is the notary who announced the nomination list this time.

Unlike the guests on the day of the awards, his work is behind the scenes, and he only needs to use a computer to send the nomination list to the official Oscar website.

There is still half an hour until the list of Oscar nominations.

Alger ate the french fries made by his wife and scrolled through the IMDb list of films that had entered this year.

The IMDb scores of the participating films this year are generally very strange. Even the award-winning favorite "The Hurt Locker" only has a score of 7.6 on IMDb, while another work by Nolan, who is destined to accompany him, has a high score of 8.8.

"Who will be nominated for this year's Oscars? Katherine Bigelow's The Hurt Locker? Ivan Reitman's Up In The Air? The Coen Brothers' Serious Man," the wife asked.

"There must be Coen Brothers. Oscar has always had a special fondness for the Coen Brothers. After all, they symbolize the youth of the old guys in the Academy." Alger said.

"What about Catherine? Where's Nolan?"

"There should be."

"Hmm." His wife leaned closer to Alger's screen.

Found out that Alger was watching another movie.

A work with an IMDb rating of 8.3.

And there is a golden label on the top of the page, which says 133, which symbolizes the identity of this work as the 250rd in IMDb's top 133.

"Approaching Iraq?" The wife read out the name on the website.

"Correct."

"It seems a little familiar. The one that Weinstein worked on this year? Is it the same theme as Catherine's "The Hurt Locker?"

"It's not the same theme. "Approaching Iraq" is a documentary similar to a documentary." Alger explained.

The wife raised her eyebrows and asked.

"How does it compare to The Hurt Locker?"

Alger thought for a while, "To some extent, "Approaching Iraq" is more stylistic."

"Then there must be a seat for "Approaching Iraq" for this nomination?"

"not necessarily."

"why?"

"The reason is very simple, just like "Inglourious Basterds" is better than "The Hurt Locker", but "The Hurt Locker" has a higher winning percentage than "Inglourious Basterds", some things are not determined by the quality of the work itself, What's more, Oscar is not a simple judging game."

"But it sounds like "Approaching Iraq" is quite politically correct, like the style Oscar and the old guys like."

"Political correctness is indeed important, but what's more important is the announcement. I bet that the announcement mode of "Approaching Iraq" has at least cut its points in half." Alger took a bite of French fries.

"How do you say it?" asked the wife.

Alger turned on the handset and went in front of his wife.He raised his eyebrows meaningfully.

"It's too much. Publicity when it was released, publicity when it was nominated, and even publicity at the box office. It would be fine if there was no yesterday's incident, but yesterday there was such a big commotion, and even a group of people appeared on the Internet to support her. Why? Feminist crusader. The academy committee is 97 percent male, they wouldn't like a feminist crusader."

"But this year's Oscar winner for "Approaching Iraq" is Weinstein, who is a master in Hollywood."

"So what? Meryl Streep's Oscar this year is also managed by Weinstein's PR. She and Weinstein have a good relationship in private, but in terms of the current pressure ratio, she and Sandra Isn’t Bullock evenly divided?” Alger snorted, “Which public relations company in Hollywood doesn’t know about Weinstein’s public relations strategies? I can only say that there is Weinstein, and it’s all about peace of mind, after all, he is notoriously unscrupulous. .”

The wife nodded half understanding.

Soon an unread email appeared on the screen.

Alger wiped his hands and said with a smile.

"It's time to reveal the awards again, let's see how many we have guessed this year."

After saying that, he clicked on it.

However, in the next second, Alger was stunned.

Unbelievable wiping eyes.

After confirming that I read it correctly, I refreshed the webpage repeatedly.

But no matter how he refreshed it, the words on the web page did not change.

is this real?

Alger stared blankly at the screen.

It was not until my wife yelled that I belatedly copied the content of the email and posted it online.

After finishing all the operations, Alger slumped on the chair.

He stared blankly at the ceiling.

After a long time, the phone rang.

It was his friend George.

As soon as the connection was made, George shouted in disbelief.

"Twelve nominations! How could it be twelve! Are those old white men at Oscar crazy?? Alger, did you copy it wrong!!"

Alger licked his dry lips and said slowly.

"I copied it right. It's twelve items.

"Closer to Iraq"...works miracles. "

The moment the voice fell, Alger was staring at the electronic screen.

The webpage is still on the IMDb page of "Approaching Iraq", and the golden 133 shows that the film is the 250rd work of IMDbTOP133.

And today's nominations came out.

There is no denying that its ranking will definitely rise again, just like a rocket - approaching the pinnacle of the film industry!
