Chapter 2084: 2084 Wind Direction Coordinates
Just like the current pattern of the film market, the era of blockbuster films has arrived irresistibly, but the rising momentum of traditional films catches people off guard, and the excellence of the works even reminds people of the golden age of Hollywood.
The same is true of the Golden Globe Awards now. On the one hand, they are eager to prove their professionalism and authority, but on the other hand, they are unwilling to give up their pursuit of business. This makes the trend of the Golden Globe Awards quite confusing, like whack-a-mole , East a hammer, west a stick, there is no way to predict.
However, from the overall list of winners of the Golden Globe Awards, it can be seen that Michael's pursuit of interests always has the upper hand. Even if he struggles, entangles, or hesitates, his determination has not wavered in any way.
The three major awards in the drama category belong to "Saving Private Ryan", Tom Hanks, and Cate Blanchett respectively, while the ownership of the three major awards in the musical comedy category does not seem to have much suspense.
"Shakespeare in Love", "True Love", "Zorro's Mask (The. Mask. Of. Zorro)", "I'm Crazy About Mary" and "Bulworth", "The Truman Show" The work was shortlisted for the final competition for the best film in the musical comedy category. After the nomination list came out, people were dumbfounded—six nominations were really hard to look at. However, due to the excellent quality of the work, people still voted for more. much sight.
It is generally believed that "The Truman Show" will have the last laugh, because the overall quality of this work is indeed far superior to other works, but the Hollywood Foreign Press Association broke a shocking upset, and "Shakespeare in Love" has the last laugh Finally, not "The Truman Show".
This result almost made people speechless, and could not even utter any questioning or cursing words, because the impact was so powerful that it was suspected that the result of the award was wrongly written. That night, when Tom Cruise came on stage as the award presenter, he meant that he had read it wrong, and he looked around for the director, wanting to seek confirmation. It can be seen that this result has a strong impact.
However, the Golden Globes then made "compensation".
Hugo of "The Truman Show" won best actor in a musical comedy, beating Antonio Banderas of "The Mask of Zorro" and Warren of "The Bragging Customer" for the award -Beatty, Michael Caine of "Little. Voice" and Robin Williams of "True Hands" achieved the final victory.
In fact, there is almost no suspense in Hugo's victory. Almost none of the other four competitors can shake Hugo's dominance. The actor Joseph Fiennes of "Shakespeare in Love" is not even shortlisted for the award. In contention, almost all suspense was killed at the nomination stage.
The result is also the same. Hugo won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actor for the second consecutive year with his outstanding performance in "The Truman Show" - last year it was a drama category, this year it was a musical comedy category, and he was also the first consecutive year I haven't been able to accept the award for two years!
Such an ending produced an unexpected effect. It is generally believed that Hugo owes the Golden Globes a favor, and the big belly and tolerance of the Golden Globes are also reversing their image, initially establishing that "even if the actors are not present To maintain an authoritative image of being objective and fair, it has to be said that Michael made a good move.
On the one hand, Hugo's victory is well deserved, and there is absolutely no controversy; If he is impressed, maybe people will not blame Hugo, but the sympathy points of the Golden Globes will go up invisibly.
It can be seen that Michael is definitely not as impetuous as he seems.
At the same time, the Best Actress in a Musical Comedy also broke out a moderate upset. Cameron Diaz of "I'm Crazy About Mary" was generally favored, but in the end she lost to "Sha "Gwyneth Paltrow", which made many people express their incomprehension. Also losing to Gwyneth are Jane Horrocks of "Dumb Singer", Christina Rich of "The. Opposite. Of. Sex", "Electronic Love Letter ( You've. Got. Mail)" Meg Ryan.
What people wonder the most is that if it's not Cameron, it should be Christina. Because although Christina's performance in "The Devil" was completely overshadowed by Charlize, her performance can also be called good, coupled with the excellent performance of "Between Her and Him and Her", it is indeed It deserves a trophy.
It is a pity that this trophy belongs to Gwyneth.
This reminds many people of the sudden momentum of rumors in the circle during the awards season. The momentum of "Shakespeare in Love" has been rising step by step, and it seems to have surpassed "Saving Private Ryan" and "The Truman Show". "Going hand in hand, such a pattern is really incomprehensible. Coupled with the counterattack of "Shakespeare in Love" on "The Truman Show", the authenticity of such rumors is even more thought-provoking, and the inside story behind it is even more shocking——
Could it be that a public relations offensive can really change the trend of the awards ceremony? Let weak or even mediocre works create miracles. If this is the case, then why is the film industry striving for perfection?
Of course, this is just speculation at the moment. After all, this is the first year of the awards season, and everything is being groped around. Everyone, including the Weinstein brothers, is exploring the new pattern of the blockbuster era. Therefore, no one can predict the next development direction.
The six trophies in the drama and musical comedy categories found their respective targets, and the other four overall awards also went to four very different works.
Among the best supporting actor awards, Ed Harris of "The Truman Show" successfully stood out, making Robert Duvall of "The Forbidden Truth" and Bill of "Rushmore" Murray, Geoffrey Rush of "Shakespeare in Love", Donald Sutherland of "Without Limits", and "Simple Plan". Billy Bob Thornton became a spectator.
The six nominations are reserved for the Golden Globe Awards. Every time, the nomination list becomes the object of private ridicule and ridicule, but the Hollywood Foreign Press Association still goes its own way. I don’t know whether it is high emotional intelligence or thick-skinned.
In the competition for Best Supporting Actress, Lynn Redgrave (Lynn. Redgrave) became the final winner with "Gods and Beasts". Singer" Brenda Blethyn, "Shakespeare in Love" Judi Dench, "The Truman Show" Nicole Kidman.
The high-profile Best Director Award and Best Screenplay Award were won by two different works.
"Saving Private Ryan" won Steven-Spielberg the best director award, "Elizabeth," "The Truman Show," "The Horse Whisperer," and "Shakespeare in Love." The director has become a spectator.
The best screenplay was once again an upset. "The Truman Show" failed to win the award, but "Shakespeare in Love" won. The other three works that accompanied him were "Saving Private Ryan", "The Bragging Customer ” and “Are you happy (Happiness)”. This result is also incomprehensible.
These four trophies belong to four different works, and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has brought the cake-sharing art to the extreme.
In the end, "Quest. For. Camelot" won the best original song award, "The Truman Show" won the best soundtrack award, and "Central Station" won the best foreign language award without any suspense. The piece is in the bag.
Looking at the entire list of winners of the Golden Globe Awards, a three-legged pattern has been formed. "The Truman Show" won the Best Actor Award, Best Supporting Actor Award, and Best Film Score Award in the Musical Comedy category, and "Shakespeare in Love" The best film in the musical comedy category, the best actress in the musical comedy category, and the best screenplay were included in the bag, while "Saving Private Ryan" won two heavyweight awards: the best film in the drama category and the best director.
In addition, "Dumb Singer", "Elizabeth", "Gods and Beasts", and "Finding Camelot" each received a trophy. There is no absolute winner, and there is no loser who is completely ignored. The Hollywood Reporter Association has considered almost every aspect, trying not to miss the Oscar predictions. It can be seen that they are doing their best to cater to the Oscars, trying to fully confirm their reputation as an Oscar weather vane.
However, among the three trophies of "Shakespeare in Love", two were obtained from "The Truman Show". Weng Qingshi". However, the "Truman Show" third prize is in hand, which also includes Hugo's second consecutive year of winning, which conceals the real thinking of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association and has not caused too much discussion.
Coupled with Gwyneth's victory over Cameron and Kate's victory over Charlize, this tiny detail can also show Michael's attitude towards Hugo.
On the surface, the Golden Globe Awards still gave Hugo their praise, they became the weak, and Hugo became the existence of being favored and proud, quietly reversed the previous negative image of the Golden Globe Awards; But in fact, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has quietly changed its attitude, and they are stepping towards the opposite of Hugo. Of course, it is impossible for the two sides to really tear each other apart, even if Hugo is willing, Michael is not willing, but this invisible contradiction has become deeper and deeper-no one knows what will happen next.
This is also the first time in the past five years that the Golden Globe Awards has gradually reversed the situation in the confrontation with Hugo, and the future development is suddenly full of more uncertainties.
Maybe, maybe the list of winners of the Oscars can be a shot in the arm to change the situation - the ultimate goal of the Golden Globes is the Oscars, it has always been the Oscars, and it has always been the Oscars. One week after the end of the Golden Globe Awards, the "Oscar weathervane", the Oscars announced the nomination list for the 71st session, and everyone was looking forward to it!
