2332 Open Competition

"Let's welcome the beautiful Jared Leto with the bluest suit and the whitest shoes!"

In Neil's quip, last year's Best Supporting Actor winner Jared Leto made his debut tonight in a powder blue suit and ivory shoes, a bold red carpet attire that was undoubtedly unique Tree Yiji, in a black suit and white shirt, can easily jump out; with a long bright hair, he is indeed worthy of the adjective "beautiful", which made many guests at the scene blown away whistle.

Jared, who walked up to the stage, was a little shy because of the jokes of the guests on the scene, pursed his lips and smiled, but he quickly calmed down, "Every Best Supporting Actress nominee has a well-recognized reputation. There are four nominees, plus Meryl Streep, who must be shortlisted under California law."

In an instant, the audience burst into laughter!

Meryl, who has been successfully nominated every year, besides the joke of "cancer", there are really many jokes about her, and now Jared has said one of them: this has been written into the law.

Every guest in the audience could taste the ridicule, and they burst into laughter in an instant, and the close-up of the camera brought Meryl herself. She even supported her forehead in tears and covered her cheeks with her palms. Helplessly shook his head.

"Thank you everyone for joining us." Jared said, "I'm actually very nervous about this joke..." The laughter at the scene became more joyful, and even Jared laughed, but he still had to continue to complete his task, "They all have a solid foundation, and I'm honored to announce their names. The best supporting actress nominees are..."

Patricia Arquette in "Boyhood", Emma Stone in "Birdman", Keira Knightley in "The Imitation Game", Meryl Stry in "Black Forest" Pop, Laura Dern of "Into the Wild."

In a similar situation to the Best Supporting Actor department, the three Best Picture nominees for "Boyhood," "Birdman," and "The Imitation Game" made it to the final five, and as the second phase of awards season progressed, The confrontation between "Boyhood" and "Birdman" has become the main focus, and the "Birdman", who continues to rise in momentum, has shown a gesture of transcendence, which also makes the Oscars ceremony full of unpredictable suspense.

Naturally, the battle between Patricia Arquette and Emma Stone came into focus.

Throughout the awards season, Patricia led the way, and once kept pace with Simmons, making the supporting roles lose suspense; but Emma's later catching up broke the whole pattern, especially the upward momentum of "Birdman" was unstoppable. It also changed the situation of the best supporting actress department suddenly.

This is also the reason why the Academy has changed the order of awards for Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress.

Suspense does exist now. Like Burst, Best Supporting Actress is a must-have if Boyhood is looking to stay competitive.

Everyone's eyes were focused on Jared. He was also a little nervous and took a deep breath, "The Oscar winner is..." The audience froze for a moment, "Patricia Arquette, 'boyhood'."

Still no surprise.

Patricia, who was on the stage, took out an A4 piece of paper with a large thank you that she had prepared earlier. Because the length was too exaggerated, the guests couldn't help but chuckle. Apparently, Patricia was ready in advance, after all, she was the biggest favorite all over the awards season.

In the first half of the acceptance speech, there were no surprises. A lot of names were listed to ensure that I did not forget anyone; but the award acceptance speech in the second half turned around.

Patricia first mentioned the website she was building for the environmental protection cause, and then changed the topic, "Thank you to every mother, every taxpayer, every American citizen..." There was some booing at the scene, thinking she was about to shout for environmental protection , but did not expect, "We are fighting for equality for everyone, and it is time to completely solve the problem of unequal pay and equality between men and women."

There was thunderous applause.

Countless female guests did not expect this scene to come. Many people cheered, whistled, applauded, and even stood up to pay Patricia the highest respect. The applause continued to roar. On, echoing for a long time.

People had long expected that the issue of "equal pay for men and women" was likely to be a big topic at the awards ceremony, and the only question was how it would be brought up.

Now that the answer has been revealed, Patricia has found her voice and made a firm call.

Oscar's second half kicked off in this way:

"Boyhood" wins tonight's first statuette, joining "Boom Drummer" and "The Grand Budapest Hotel" to extend its lead in the Best Picture battle; Patricia unexpectedly mentions The hottest topic of this year's awards season has won countless attention.

Then, a series of awards were awarded one after another.

Best Animated Short Film, "The Feast"; Best Animated Feature Film, "Super Marines" Don Hall made a special mention of Renly in his acceptance speech, "I guess tonight's first one about Renly Questions answered."

"Can Renly Win the Golden Man" question: The answer is yes, and "Super Marines" is Renly's first Golden Man, in a surprising way.

Don Hall won the hilarious prize for his witty and witty way.

Best Live Action Short, "Suicide Hotline"; Best Documentary Short, "Crisis Hotline"; Best Documentary Feature, "The Fourth Citizen" and this award-winning film has sparked a lot of buzz.

When Neil appeared again and finished the speech, he joked, "Snowden, the protagonist of 'The Fourth Citizen', was unable to come to the scene tonight because of 'treason/country'."

This joke managed to win the biggest laugh since the opening.

After "Selma Parade" successfully won the Best Original Song award for its theme song "Glory," the award for Best Cinematography also kicked off the final sprint for Best Picture.

"The Grand Budapest Hotel", "Mr. Turner", "Sister Ida", "Unbreakable", "Birdman", these are the five nominated works for the best photography.

After last year, Emmanuel Lubezki and Roger Deakins, the two top photographers in the industry, faced off again. As a result of this confrontation, after "Gravity" defeated "Prisoner", Ai Manuel once again won the Best Cinematography Award for "Birdman", beating the "Unbreakable" Roger.

This is also the first time in 20 years since John Toll won the Best Photography Award in 1995 and 1996 for "The Years of Love" and "Braveheart". , Emmanuel Lubezki has truly established himself as a master in the industry.

And Roger Deakins is still the uncrowned king.

More importantly, "Birdman" won the first golden statue tonight. Although it was a little late, "Birdman" still successfully caught up with other major competitors, and the strongest in his own hands. On top of the item, he did not miss out. Like all the competitors of the first group, he continued the strong momentum of the whole awards season, and won the "should" awards strongly, which also means that the overall public relations of the college in the second stage The pattern is still not broken

There is no unpopularity, which means that the suspense still continues, and the pattern of the best picture battle is still foggy.

Then came the blockbuster award that could very well be a watershed moment: Best Editing!

The five nominated works are "Boom Drummer", "American Sniper", "The Grand Budapest Hotel", "Boyhood" and "The Imitation Game".

Although the most popular "Birdman" in the second stage of the awards season was unfortunately absent, from the editing point of view, this work, which stunned the entire awards season with long shots, is indeed not competitive; Strong contenders for Best Picture this year.

In particular, "The Burst Drummer", "The Grand Budapest Hotel", "Boyhood" troika.

If "Boyhood" or "The Grand Budapest Hotel" can win, then the best picture is likely to be produced in these two works, and the "Birdman" counterattack in the second stage will come to an abrupt end, and then the awards will be awarded. Season 1 again returned to the main theme of the first stage, either Richard Linklater or Wes Anderson.

If "Booming Drummer" can win, those works will also catch up with "Birdman" and "Boyhood", further disrupting the pattern of the best film, so that the ultimate award, which is already full of countless suspense, will continue to maintain suspense, Even cast a layer of mystery.

But what if there is a shocking surprise? If "American Sniper" or "The Imitation Game" are both absent from the best director's work and win the upset, then the whole situation will be more chaotic, which also means that the hope of "boyhood" gradually fades, "Bird" People" will fully emerge.

In other words, even if "Birdman" didn't win the nomination for Best Editing, the award trend in this department is still decisively pointing to the work, allowing people to further understand the trend of the votes of the Academy judges, for tonight's awards status. Take your pulse for more tips.

It is precisely because of this that the Best Editing Award itself has some suspense. After the Best Supporting Actress, the tension of the awards ceremony has shrunk again, and people can really feel the heavy weight of Oscar.

Benedict Cumberbatch and Naomi Watts came on the stage as the presenters, and it was obvious that they were a little nervous. Naomi, who opened the envelope, accidentally bumped the microphone, and almost died. Knocked down the microphone, which made Benedict almost laugh, but he quickly announced the winning result:

"The winner of the 87th Academy Award for Best Editing is ... Tom-Cross, 'Boom Drummer.'"

Chaos!

Absolute chaos!

Total mess!

Tom Cross, who was nominated for the first time and won a strong award, brought the third Golden Man trophy tonight for "Boom Drummer", and continued to add chips to this unique work with a slanted edge, sweeping Sony Classics in the awards season. The haze and dullness of the second stage, but caught up on the night of the awards ceremony!
