atypical hollywood life

People in North America had a very lively life in January. There are many movies on the big screen, such as "Interview with the Vampire", "Schindler's List", "The Age of Innocence", "The Uninhibited Sky"... Whether watching a commercial blockbuster or a tear-jerking literary film, one can be pulled out of this hot schedule. This is the case on the big screen, and it will be even more exciting off the screen.

Because it is the awards season, heroes from all walks of life have fought their way out, whether it is the regular newspapers such as "New York Times", "Variety Show", "Premiere" or "News of the World", "U.S. Weekly", "Hollywood Reporter" These gossip tabloids that love all kinds of "strange news and strange things" have shown their abilities one after another, various celebrity gossips and gossips, various movie shooting casting inside stories, in a word, they can play whatever can catch people's attention.

Those big newspapers that were bought out to advertise movies and stars are okay, at least the integrity is still in the range that can barely cover the face, and some gossip tabloids don’t have such a thing at all, whether you are true or not, anyway I dare to write if it can sell well!

Especially now that it is the awards season, the actor's personal awards are simply the hardest hit!The director is the least smokey. Even the president endorsed "Schindler's List" and issued: "I urgently ask you to watch this movie!" As soon as many Jewish and German films appeared, many directors cried out that they were finished, and the best director of this year's Oscars was gone.

It's not about showing weakness or that Steven Spielberg is really that good.In the United States, political correctness is a very important thing, especially the Oscar, an award with extraordinary influence in the United States and even the world. Some things cannot be touched but must be followed.

Playing politics throughout Hollywood is also a common means for stars to attract attention.Otherwise, Brad Pitt would not have gained political capital by relying on "Seven Years in Tibet" and made a fortune, but the problem of this degree needs to be grasped by the stars themselves, and it is not uncommon for them to get out of it.

But a film like "Schindler's List", which combines race, World War II, massacre, and salvation, combines so many correct politics, oh, forgot, the director is still a Jew, and the story is also about the Germans saving the Jews. To truly present that era, the film also chose black and white film.In other words, the correctness of this kind of movie is like the main theme movie of Rabbit Country. Unless Oscar wants to be scolded by the whole United States, it is impossible not to award an award.Moreover, this film is indeed well shot, with both storytelling and entertainment features, and it can be said to very clearly reflect the balance between art and commerce that Oscar has always advertised.

If Spielberg can't win the award, it can only be said that the brains of the Oscar judges have been eaten by zombies, and they used their brains when voting.

The smell of gunpowder for the best actor is not heavy, because there is also a politically correct acting school, Tom Hanks.

The American actor born in 1956 looks like a good man in the mainstream of the United States. Although he is handsome, he is not threatening.In terms of acting skills, he has been praised by each since his debut. He was nominated for an Oscar in 1989 and has always been favored by all walks of life. As long as he doesn't die and make some inexplicable movies, the Oscar is only a matter of time for him. Now "Philadelphia Story" is the time.

As a movie about how a homosexual who was discovered by his boss and fired for no reason because of his homosexuality and AIDS got justice, Tom Hanks perfectly interpreted the sad and painful story of being discriminated against and fired. Little lawyer.

Due to the emergence of AIDS in the 80s in the United States, sexual orientation is no longer a matter of personal choice, but a phenomenon that brings great social panic.The entire film discusses not only the struggle for the rights of gay individuals, but also discusses the impact of an epidemic on the entire social culture on a deeper level.With such a profound theme and Tom Hanks' god-like acting skills, how can you let others compete with him?

Now the most tragic ones are Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress. Compared with the big year of Best Director and Best Actor, these three awards are basically a small year. Now that the nominations have not yet come out, it can be said that heroes from all walks of life have resorted to [-] methods to fight each other, making the audience enjoy watching the big drama, which is much more exciting than the movie.

In the midst of this chaotic dance of demons, Hollywood has ushered in a temporary breather, and the Oscar nominations have been announced!

Margaret, who was sitting at home, was watching TV with Rebecca, waiting for the announcement of the nomination list.

With the announcement of the last nomination on TV, Rebecca finally let out a sigh of relief and let go of the big stone in her heart.

"It seems that two awards have fallen into our hands. This is really not easy. This month has passed like a war. I am so tired."

Margaret looked at her embarrassingly: "Don't be so sure, everything is possible, and you can't say anything until the award is presented, please don't set a flag."

"Don't worry, just look at the nominations. According to the rule of exclusion, Rosie Perez will be out first. As for those white and straight college old men, unless they have political appeals, they will not give this award to someone with People of Latin American descent, followed by Holly Hunter, her best actress is this year's hottest, and the nomination for supporting roles is for exposure. I will make a fuss about Best Supporting Actress. Since the establishment of the Oscars, no one has won the leading role and supporting role at the same time. There are many nominations, but the Oscars will not give people this opportunity. It is not so cheap. Don't worry about Emma Thompson. Although she and Holly Hunter are double nominated, she already won an Oscar for Best Actress last year. Otherwise, she won't get anything this year. And she is British, so the competition is not so strong."

Rebecca took a sip of water and continued, "At first Arthur thought that your biggest opponent was Anna Paquin's, but obviously, Anna Paquin's behind-the-scenes team is not strong enough, or their energy is mainly focused on the last In the best actress, the supporting role is a piggyback. It’s the best if you can have it. On the contrary, after all, Arthur's position in the academy is where it is, and even if I am Arthur's daughter, I have to say that his heart is actually not that broad. It is not worth offending him for a best supporting actress."

Margaret nodded. It was no secret that Arthur's heart was indeed not broad.

Seeing Margaret nodding in agreement with her, Rebecca went on to say, "It seems that your biggest competitor is Winona Ryder, who is both American and young, but Winona Ryder Ryder has a fatal flaw. Her image has not broken through. She has always been the image of a classical lady. Although she is very good, she is also easy to be stereotyped. This time it can be regarded as a comforting nomination. However, it is also your luck Okay, or should I say that she was unlucky? If you met last year, this award must have belonged to Ryder, and no one else would have to think about it. Even this year, you should also thank her for her dedication, otherwise, if she is pregnant, this award will definitely belong to Ryder. If you want to get the prize, you have to work hard."

"Ah? Pregnant? Who is she pregnant with? Didn't she say that she broke up with Depp?" Margaret was at a loss. She had never heard that this lady had a pregnant partner.

"Break up? Who did you hear? They're both married." Rebecca asked in confusion.

"Ah? I don't know when they got married." Margaret was shocked. What kind of development is this?What about breaking up in September [-]rd?When did it become married in [-]?

"I said that you have someone from Hollywood in your family anyway, so you should pay attention to it? It's not only embarrassing but also easy to offend people." Rebecca's head is full of black lines, this is really... Fortunately, Depp and Ryder I don't know, otherwise you would say that they broke up when they just got married, which is simply a feud.

"Uh, I didn't expect to be so deeply involved with Hollywood now. I will pay attention to it in the future." Margaret smiled, and if she didn't pay attention, she would really kill herself.

"Actually, things started in 92. At that time, Depp was filming "Arizona Dreams" and Ryder was filming "The Age of Innocence". The two had scandals with Faye Dunaway and Daniel Day-Lewis respectively. But "The Age of Innocence" finished filming first, and Winona Ryder didn't know whether it was for the purpose of explaining to Depp or pursuing the scandal. Anyway, she flew to the filming location of "Arizona Dream" to visit the set, but very soon Unfortunately, there was a car accident on the way from the airport to the set, and he was in a coma for two months."
