Chapter 221: The Peak Time
Today's award presentation guests are also gathered with superstars, including "Beautiful Soup" Tom Cruise, Angelina Jolie, Julia Roberts, Charlize Theron and others, as well as the older generation of legendary figures Elizabeth Taylor.
The best supporting actor in the movie category was won by Benicho De Toro of "Drug Network", and the best supporting actress Kate Hudson won for "The Road to Fame".
In the movie, music and TV categories, we soon arrived at the Best Soundtrack Awards for the Best Soundtrack Awards. When the awards guests shouted loudly, "Hanstimo, Lisa Gerard, "Gladiator" who won the Best Soundtrack Awards," the applause in the venue was thunderous. The majestic epic melody of the gladiator also rang in the venue, and the two walked side by side to the podium.
In fact, the soundtracks of the other shortlisted works are very good, but the soundtracks of this epic movie have a greater role in the movie and have more power to sublimate the story at the key points. The judges want to prefer this tune.
Chen Tiandu also applauded, and Hanstimo was also the musician of his "Infernal Affairs".
After the best soundtrack, it was the best original song award immediately. Chen Tiandu, who was originally careless, immediately focused, and the photographer also frequently swept Chen Tiandu's face.
He searched around for Whitney, but did not find her. The highlights of the songs at the venue were screened, with applause.
The song "Things Have Change" written by Bob Dylan for "The Rising Show" is also a very classic song. When you play "Skyfall", the audience cheered a lot more, and the applause was obviously much more lively than before. The queen of the diva stayed on the billboard for more than twenty weeks. It was also an indispensable contribution to earning a lot of money for the original soundtrack of "Infernal Affairs". There are really not many who have never heard of this song.
“The one who won the best original song is… skyfall “Infernal Affairs”!”
There was applause in the audience, especially Chen Tiandu’s applause was the most enthusiastic.
The camera was aimed at Chen Tiandu, and the big screen also showed his smiling figure sitting on the chair and applauding. Everyone thought he was going to go on stage to receive the award, but he was just sitting on Mount Tai. Whitney's figure walked out from behind the stage. It turned out that she had just changed clothes, and after taking the Golden Globe Award, the applause rose again.
"Actually, half of this award should be Christmas Chen. He wrote lyrics and composing for 'skyfall' and composed such a beautiful melody. Thank you Christmas Chen, you are a charming gentleman." Whitney flew a kiss in his direction, and Chen Tian smiled and took the lead in applause.
After receiving the award, the queen sang a song "skyfall" live, with a melodious tune and magical singing skills. It is also the most favorable counterattack for the media to judge that she can no longer sing. The movie MV editing clips of the songs were also played on the big screen at the right time, and the classic scenes of "Infernal Affairs" reappeared again. On the other end of the Pacific, the movie channel was broadcasting today's award ceremony live. I don't know how many viewers who were excited to watch the movie were all excited at this moment!
"What a bunker. "Infernal Affairs" appeared gorgeously at the American Golden Globes... Sorry, I'm a policeman, bang! It's so classic. I feel that it's beyond the reach of the classics many times I read it."
Hong Kong media were also in a state of excitement, "The only thing that "Infernal Affairs" successfully won the first prize is the English song "skyfall" instead of Tsai Chin's "Forgotten Time". However, skyfall is also a classic song, there is no doubt."
Only the Baodao media have been slightly restrained, and their movie "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is still invincible.
In fact, it is not a complete victory. The United States has a variety of awards. At the Los Angeles Film Critics Association Awards held on the 16th, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" defeated a number of blockbusters and won the Best Picture of the Year, as well as three technical awards, Best Soundtrack, Best Design and Best Photography. This is the first time the association has selected a foreign language film to win the biggest award, and it also made "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" enter the Golden Globe Award, and the Oscar's momentum is even more powerful.
Steven Soderberg won the Best Director for his performance in two works, "Drug Network" and "Never Compromise". So far, he has taken over three Best Director Awards from the Film Critics Association. "Never Compromise" also made Julia Roberts recognized as the second Best Actress, and the Best Actor was Michael Douglas in "The Rising Show".
"Infernal Affairs" seems not to be popular among film critic awards, and the awards also have many scripts and songs, which is why Chen Tian dares to make that prediction.
Even the Baodao movie "Yiyi" has won the best foreign language film several times. Can "Infernal Affairs" not compare to "Yiyi" which few people watched?
Such a situation also makes the future of the movie full of gloom.
Of course, if the Golden Globes fail, they can still make excuses, and public relations are biased towards Oscars. But what if the Oscars become stronger again?
What's more, a fact that everyone is stunned-
The Hollywood awards season, as the National Film Critics Commission unveiled its list of awards on December 7, will not end until the Oscars ceremony in March of the following year. During these three months, how many movie awards are there in the United States? The American Academy of Film and Arts announced the answer yesterday, with about 150.
These activities that reward film achievements are like taking turns, with various names and diverse organizers. Most of them are organized by civil groups, including film critic associations in important cities (such as New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston), Directors Association, Screenwriters Association, Photographers Association, and Screen Actors Union.
A spokesperson for the American Academy of Film and Arts said that there is only one purpose of these film awards, which is to warm up for the Academy Awards, which symbolizes the highest honor of the film industry, and to discover more stars of tomorrow in the film industry, including talents with great potential in front and behind the scenes. However, in these positive awards, there are also "negative" award ceremony mixed with, such as the Golden Thornberry Award and the Golden Turkey Award. They deliberately selected the worst film of the year, the worst male and female protagonists of the year, and provide an "alternative" view of the film industry in this way.
With so many warm-up awards, the rigorous and absurd side of Americans is seen. There are 150 awards ceremony, and it doesn’t matter if it wins a few fewer awards.
In a daze, the movie came to the Best Screenwriter Award. "The ones nominated for the Best Screenwriter include Stephen Gagan's "Drug Trading",...Christmas Chen's "Infernal Affairs"!" After the applause, everyone's eyes once again focused on the five candidates on the big screen.
"Are you nervous?" Kelly Chen suddenly said at this moment.
Chen Tiandu turned his head and looked at her for no reason, not understanding, "I'm so nervous!"
"Puchi~~" Zhang Ziyi laughed out loud.
"The best screenwriter of the 58th Golden Globe Awards movie is...Christmas Chen "Midday Road"!"
With a oh, thunderous applause resounded throughout the hall, and everyone was smiling and applauding. On the NBC channel on the TV, Kate and Jun Ji-hyun were also watching the TV in the hospital ward. When Chen Tiandu's name was read out, Kate also waved his fists vigorously, "Long live, oh~~"
"Long live, what's wrong, what's wrong?" Jeon Ji-hyun was shocked.
"It's okay, I just pulled my muscles, it's so unlucky."
"Let's lie down quickly. If something happens to you, I will be scolded to death by the boss."
"It's expected!" Andy Lau and others were also applauding at the scene. Zhou Yunfa gave a thumbs up, "I guessed it very accurately!"
Chen Tian hugged him and said with a wry smile: "I'm done, this is the pinnacle of my life. If I win this award, there will be no chance tonight."
Not far away, people shook hands and hugged him nearby. When passing by Tom Hanks, the idol also gave him a hug. Catherine gave him a kiss and pecked him on the cheek.
Chen Tian took a deep breath, walked onto the stage with a smile on his face, took the trophy, and smiled like Chen Yongren in the movie, saying, "Thank you, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, it's incredible... Everyone knows that I came to Hollywood with a pen. I came to Hollywood with a script called "Save Private Ryan". It made me earn the first dollar, so I can make more and better movies now. So this trophy also has special significance to me. After winning this award, well... I wish Kate a good recovery first. The moment she fell down, it was really heartbreaking."
There was a lot of applause from the audience, which was the applause of blessing. Kate Beckinsale, who was far away in the ward, suddenly felt his eyes a little wet, and he didn't wipe them, but still burst out from tears. Jun Ji-hyun had been a light bulb for several months, and he didn't know what it felt in his heart. He had jealousy and envy...
Chen Tian was no longer sensational, and suddenly quickly pronounced the name he wanted to thank in Chinese, "Thank you, parents, I will go home for the New Year this year. There are also teachers Han Sanpin, Mr. Lin Jianyue, Brother Hua, Teacher Chen Daoming, Brother Hui, Brother Li Ming... There are too many names, I can't pronounce it anymore, thank everyone. There are also many people who gave the crew the greatest support when filming the movie!"
After saying that, he held up the trophy high and said it again in English, "Three mouthfuls of oil!"
The audience burst into applause, he bowed and walked into the backstage.
Domestic parents who are watching live TV also burst into tears, and they are really promising. For Chen’s mother, the most important news is that her son will go home during the New Year this year. In Hong Kong, when Chen Tian said "multiple" in Cantonese, I don’t know how many people are proud, and sourness is indispensable. Chen Tian is not a Hong Kong filmmaker. This movie represents the mainland.
Through this movie, the relationship between many Hong Kong movies and mainland movies has been unexpectedly narrowed.
The awards continued, and soon the Best Foreign Language Film was awarded. Li Chou, who had been calm and composed before, finally won the grand prize of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and won the Best Foreign Language Film Award for the first time. The audience on the treasure island can finally laugh freely.
A few months ago, Li Weng came to Beijing to promote "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". On the day the National Palace was premiered, almost all famous artists in the capital were present. However, except for the exquisite praise of the pictures, most people's views were "but that's the case."
But at this moment, when Li Chou stood brilliantly on the podium of the Golden Globes, people suddenly realized that they did not really understand Li Chou, and they might not have made any effective thinking about themselves, Chinese films, and Chinese and Western cultures.
Li Censor is a brave person who dares to jump in and out.
After a large number of works representing him in the birth of his oriental art films, his courage is reflected in his progress in the direction he is unfamiliar with and may develop through hard work. Moreover, he has his own accurate judgment on what the Chinese people need and what Western people need.
In "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", he sold to Westerners to see "suppressed **" that they can easily understand. Westerners' fist and foot skills and flying around on the treetops are afraid that they do not have too much understanding of it except being dazzling and fascinated. So he used the language of movies that everyone can understand to express Zhou Yunfa and Yang Ziqiong's subtle love; and expressed Zhou Yunfa's restrained love for Zhang Ziyi. This is exactly his cleverness, and he never made any excuses for others to think that such stories are too old-fashioned and boring.
"Some people will understand that it is just a matter of time sooner or later." His wisdom is also reflected in the ability to temporarily give up the "complexity" he is used to and becomes "pure".
Everyone on the table applauded him, and Chen Tian hugged him, and Li Han walked onto the stage with a little excitement.
Both Chinese-language films won grand prizes. Today is a memorable day for Chinese filmmakers.
For Best Drama Actress, Julia Roberts won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress with Erin Blokovic in "Never Compromise". Then, although Chen Tiandu was shortlisted for Best Drama Actress, the competition was not very big. In the end, Tom Hanks received another Golden Globe Award for Best Actress with the big-selling "The Rest of the Desert Island", which is well deserved. He acted in "The Rest of the Island" for more than an hour, and he played the whole movie with impeccable performance.
Chen Tiandu could only sincerely send blessings.
Chen Tian failed in the movie emperor, which made many fans regret it. But in terms of the best director, "Infernal Affairs" is also impeccable, and the chance of winning the award is very high. But Steve's two movies were shortlisted for, and the probability of being a higher one.
But this award was really divided. Not only did Chen Tian not get it, but Steve was also regretful and lost. He was won by the Li case. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" came from behind, and won two grand prizes in three nominations, which was even heavier than "Infernal Affairs".
While Chen Tian applauded, he heard Ang Lee shouting "Thank you, Mom and Dad" on the stage, and his heart was a little sour.
What he most expects is not the best director.
Countless fans felt sad for him, "Why didn't Christmas Chen win this award?! How was the Golden Globe award selected?"
These doubts are left to watch later. The best film in the music comedy category was won by "The Road to Fame", and the most important best drama film, "Gladiator", finally won this grand prize.
It is worth mentioning that Robert Downey Jr. also won the Best Supporting Actor in the TV series as he wished, but what awaited him was the court's notice. Life was so helpless. When Elizabeth Taylor handed over the Lifetime Achievement Awards to Al Pacino, the 58th Golden Globes ceremony also ended.
How many people regret it and are reluctant to leave for a long time!
Many people were full of ambition and left with a smile!
How many people are lost, I should get more!
It doesn’t matter how many people are, I’m here to watch the fun!
...
As for Chen Tiandu, he smiled all night, but who knew he had regrets in his heart.
Suddenly someone patted his back. When he turned around, he found that it was Andy Lau. He couldn't laugh anymore and sighed, "Thank you."
Andy Lau didn't say anything, but just patted him on the shoulder hard. This scene was not hidden from the Infernal Affairs guest, Kelly Chen, who was another guest. She suddenly realized that Chen Tian was also very concerned about it because he had always been said to be "a good mentality".
"Brother Hua, do you want to go back to the hotel? Just go to my house to stay, which saves the cost of staying in the hotel. Let the housekeeper pick you up, and I will go home after I go to the hospital."
"It just happened to go to the hospital to see your brother and sister."
