Chapter 89: The Actor and the Queen
Chen Feng didn't work long in the guest seat, and was invited backstage again, because he also had to be the guest performer of this Oscar Gala. Although there is still some time left, Chen Feng just asked people to get the collector's version of the Martin acoustic guitar, tried it briefly, and after thinking that it was no big deal, he continued to go to the aisle of the backstage to watch the grand ceremony of the awards.
Long served as the guest of honor, which undoubtedly set off a craze for this Oscar Gala, and when another craze began to follow, that is, an award for each Oscar heavyweight - Best Actor Award, commonly known as the title of actor.
The nominees for Best Actor at this year's Oscars are: Javier. Berry: "Before NightFalls", "Before Nightfall", Russell. Chloe: "Gladiator", "Gladiator", "Gladiator", "Tom". Hanks: "CastAway", "Desert Island", Ed Harris: "Pollock", "Pollack", GeoffreyRush Joffrey. Rush: Quills, Quills.
As far as acting goes, Tom. Hanks is already a perfect player, and the nominated film "Desert Island" is his one-man performance, but Russell. Chloe's Gladiator has a better mass base. In the end, the judges did not know what to think about and awarded the best actor to Russell. Chloe. In the press room, I heard from the American journalist Russell. Chloe's cheers and cheers for Tom. Hanks's sigh rang out at the same time, and this contradictory mood is also one of the charms of Oscar!
This is Russell. Chloe won the title of actor for the first time, and when the award was just announced, he didn't react for a while, until he stood on the stage, he still looked a little sleepwalking. Although Chen Feng didn't like him, he was still very interested in his own slightly legendary experience.
He is the successor of Mel. Gibson followed again. A popular Hollywood actor from Oceania. He was born in Wellington, New Zealand, to a Maori maternal grandmother. When he was four years old, his family moved to Sydney, Australia. Later, he wandered around Sydney with his parents, working as a handyman for film crews, until he moved into his house for the first time at the age of 14. Poor and precarious life left him without formal education from an early age. Since he was very young, he accompanied his parents to the film and television set to deliver food, and accidentally saw many actors performing in various ways, and sometimes he was also pulled to act as some extras child actors. This led him to develop an interest in film and acting from an early age, and at the age of 6 he had the opportunity to play a role in the TV series Spyforce. It was his first performance, playing an orphan. But since then, he has never had any acting opportunities and has no regular career. Forced to make a living, he also worked as a hotel waiter.
At the age of 16, he joined a rock band, and later, he simply formed his own rock band called RomanAntix, and served as a lead singer, guitarist, and songwriter. Exactly 12 years later, Chloe finally had another chance to perform. He made his Australian film debut in 1990 with Blood Oath, followed by a role in the film Prisoner of the Sun, at the age of 25.
In 1991, he played a . A simple and cute young chef who can't resist temptation, he brought this gentle and kind character to life, for which he won his first award, the Australian Film Institute Best Supporting Actor Award.
With his success in Australia, he went to Hollywood for hairdressing. Zhan, who has successfully played many positive roles, has also created many negative roles, and his broad drama and brilliant interpretation have laid the foundation for him to become a first-class star.
1995 against Russell. It was a pivotal year for Chloe. During the year, he first got a "mentor" Sharon. Stone's invitation, and another rookie, Leonardo. DiCaprio participated in the filming of the film "Deadly Pleasure" together, which opened the door to Hollywood success for Chloe. It is not necessarily true to say that Sharon Stone is his nobleman, because this movie led by Sharon Stone is not only miserable at the box office, but also has a one-sided evaluation! However, Russell Crowe has stayed in Hollywood since then, including with Denzel. The action movie "Time and Space Warrior" starring Washington is a pity that the movies are mediocre, but it has also won him more Hollywood film contracts. Until 1997's "Los City Confidential", Russell Crow gained weight and played a jealous and hateful iron man policeman, Russell Crow's raunchy, uninhibited tough guy performance, full of acting tension, achieved the greatest success since his debut, and his acting talent was truly recognized by people. '99's "Inside Story", Russell. Chloe gained weight again, thinned his hair, played the role of a retired vice president in an overage acting movie, and his restrained acting skills stole a lot of El Pacino's style, and also made Russell Crowe nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor for the first time. Next up is this "Gladiator", Russell. Chloe incarnated as a Roman warrior in the Middle Ages, brave and good at fighting, and his tender role as a tough guy on the screen captured the hearts of many people, swept hundreds of millions of dollars at the box office, and also skyrocketed his value.
At the beginning of his acceptance speech, Russell. Chloe spoke of his ancestors. Father, I sincerely thank my grandfather, who has passed away, and I have a medal belonging to my grandfather on my chest. Originally, the medal was awarded by the British Empire in recognition of the exploits of Russell's grandfather as a war correspondent during World War II. His move made Chen Feng really feel a little ridiculous, because it was a bit like a child offering treasures.
Russell. Chloe stepped down. After that, it was followed by the award of the Best Actress award. The guest of honour for this award is Kevin. Spessie, who won the Oscar title last year, in 2000, won the title of Oscar for "American Beauty". Chen Feng has also seen this movie, describing Kevin. Spessie and Antney. Benin, a middle-class couple who look like each other, live a dull and bleak life. Later, the male protagonist tries to seduce his daughter's high school classmates and decides to regain his life. This is a dark satirical comedy that reflects the current state of American society. Spessie's acting skills in the film are striking and remarkable. However, in Chen Feng's opinion, this is a "good movie" with a bit of lolicon tendency.
The nominees for Best Actress are:
Joan Allen: The Contender
, Juliette Binoche. Binoche: "Chocolat", Ellen Burstyn: "RequiemforaDream", Laura Linney. Linny: "YouCanCountonMe" (Integrity is Priceless), Julia Roberts. Roberts: "E Day n Brockovich" (No Compromise)
When the big screen plays the picture freezes in Julia. When Roberts' portrait was on, the audience burst into thunderous applause. The evening dress she wore tonight is said to be designed according to her mother's "old clothes", which is simple, hearty and bright, and lined with retro hair buns and delicate diamond jewelry, which matches her temperament and everyone's demeanor at a glance.
This year Julia. Roberts was already expected to be crowned, but the big-mouthed beauty who had been nominated for multiple awards and finally waited for the Academy Awards to walk on the podium was still incoherently excited, leaving the audience with her full joy.
She has been nominated for the Oscar for Best Actress three times before, and after three difficult tests, this time she finally achieved a positive result, which also confirmed the law of the old Chinese saying "no more than three things". But with Julia. Roberts is nothing more than three comedies compared to Tom. Hanks's tragedy is a bit tragic. Since winning two consecutive Oscars for Best Actor in 1993 and 1994 for "The Philadelphia Story" and "Forrest Gump" respectively, Tom . Hanks has acted in a lot of good plays, from "Apollo 13", "Saving Private Ryan", "Green Mile" to this year's "Desert Island", every Oscar nomination is highly praised for him. In particular, "Desert Island Survivors" has simply become Tom. Hanks's one-man show, but such good acting skills still can't make Tom. Hanks won the Oscar for the third time. I wonder if it's also the law of "no more than three" is at work?
For Julia. Roberts, a big-mouthed beauty, believes that even domestic fans are obviously no strangers. She became a beautiful woman in everyone's eyes because of her starring role in "Pretty Woman", and in this Cinderella-esque story, she gives life to many girls' dreams. Her pure, natural image of youth is lingering. She was born in Smirner, Georgia, USA, to a family of actors, her brother is an actor, and her mother once founded a screenwriting studio. Before her debut, she never thought of becoming the most popular actress in the United States, and in her childhood, she had a desire to be a veterinarian because of her love for animals, but later studied journalism. The older brother Eric who broke into Hollywood. When Roberts had a few successes, Julia decided to try her luck in acting in Hollywood. She made a breakthrough in 1988 when she appeared prominently in two youth-themed films, Mystic Pizza and Satisfaction, and quickly won a large number of fans who liked her.
Julia's greatest film success came in 1990 with her iconic film PrettyWoman, which earned her an Oscar nomination and the People's Choice Award for Favorite Actress.
After becoming famous, Julia. Roberts was a little annoyed by the troubles she caused each of her appearances, and she soon discovered that she was like a goldfish living in a fishbowl, both in public and in her private life. After "Pretty Woman", she made two more successful works, "Supernatural Space" and "Sleeping with the Enemy", but the good times did not last long, and then "The Dying Young Man" was called "box office poison", and from Spielberg's "Captain Hawke" crew, there were even cold words, this once Hollywood's most guaranteed female star at the box office has now become every director's nightmare! In the next two years, she once again illuminated the way with the success of "Players Behind the Scenes". Growing maturing Julia. Roberts was transformed in 1993 to celebrate her return to the public spotlight. One of the reasons for this is that she filmed the box office soaring film "Gannet Assassination Order"; There is also a romance between her and Lyle Lovett, who is a singer and dancer and composer. In 1995, she starred in a successful "Talking About Love," but what really pleased the critics was that she was working with Woody. Allen's lively, uninhibited performance in "Everyone Says I Love You". After a stellar performance at the box office in 1997, "My Best Friend's Wedding" was released in the summer of that year, bringing a long-lost breath of fresh air to Hollywood, achieving the highest weekly box office for a romantic comedy film and winning critical acclaim, earning her a Golden Globe nomination. She also worked with Melya. Gibson got the highest salary together in the film "Conspiracy Theory". 1998 was a relatively slow year for Roberts. Salaton and Edja. Harris co-starred in the family drama "Stepmother."
In 1999, she got off to a great start with two successful romantic comedies, one was Notting Hill, which tells the story of a big star and an ordinary bookstore owner (Hugh Ya. Played by Grant). The other is "The Runaway Bride", in which she once again meets Richard. Kiel Collaboration. Many critics considered her role in the 2000 new film "Erin. Bruckwich's performance was Roberts' finest performance. Picky about the script is Julia. Roberts's usual style, her demands are touching, and it's best to have new experiences that she hasn't experienced before. In the same vein, she cares deeply about the vitality of her work, and when she thinks that many years later, people will still be watching her films, she says, "It's an honor." β
Julia in life first had a short-lived failed marriage, and then fell in love with several other actors. She is also an active participant in philanthropic causes, having participated in UNICEF's charity campaigns and visited many different countries, including Haiti and India. The beautiful, intelligent Julia is currently one of Hollywood's most loved and sought-after film talents.
In the Hollywood film industry in recent years, Julia. Roberts seems to have sprung up as a mushroom, quickly becoming popular in just a few years, rising quickly and suddenly, and his salary has increased year by year. She is now Hollywood's most expensive actress, and her award-winning film "Never Compromise" has reached a salary of more than $20 million, which finally puts her in the top male movie stars: such as Jim Carrey, Mel. Mel Gibson, Tom. Cruise (TomCu Sunset), Julia was the first actress to receive this award. Not only will people wonder, but what kind of person is she?
In 1990 and 1991, the "big-mouthed beauty" was selected as one of the 50 beauties of the year by People magazine for two consecutive years. In the October issue of the British "Empire" magazine, he was listed as the 66th in the "Top 100 Stars in Film History".
Chen Feng had a good impression of her, and sincerely gave warm applause to her award.
After these two heavyweight awards, two awards were followed, "Best Adapted Screenplay" and "Best Original Screenplay", the former award "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was also nominated, but this award was ultimately lost.
After these two awards, the next thing is another heavyweight award that has been highly anticipated - the Best Director Award. But before that, it's the performance time of the guest performer.
When Chen Feng took the stage with the collector's edition of the Martin acoustic guitar, as the originally dim stage lights were turned on one after another, the audience immediately stood up again and applauded Chen Feng.
For many LONG fans, the biggest attraction and suspense of this year's Oscars is what song Long is going to sing tonight, whether it is an old song or a new song, which is more concerned by them than the final winner of the award for Best Actor and Queen.
Chen Feng didn't say anything superfluous, stood in front of the upright microphone, hung the guitar diagonally on his shoulder, the shape was very cool, and just said into the microphone: "travelinglight!" Then he played the beautiful melody of "travelinglight" and began to sing.
"Like double the weight on your shoulders,
I feel like I'm carrying a weight every day;
Walking through the road of setbacks, crossing the river of pain,
constantly picking up pebbles on the side of the road;
I staggered, bumpy forward,
In front of us is a road full of troubles.
I'm dragging, and these loads,
Every step feels like my back is going to be crushed,
Until I found him,
Lifted all my loads.
Walking on the river beach,
I took off my load,
Now I'm traveling light.
My spirit is rising,
I finally found my freedom.
I traveled light.
In the dark tunnels and lonely valleys,
I have carried those heavy chains,
Full of uneasiness and fear,
But now with a simple word, the chains have been opened,
He led me to a place where I would never cry again.
Walking on the river beach,
I took off my load,
Now I'm traveling light.
My spirit is rising,
I finally found my freedom.
I traveled light. β
This song, which is full of American country style, has a relaxed rhythm, which makes the audience at the scene and the audience in front of the TV feel relaxed and happy.
By the time Chen Feng's song ended, many people didn't feel the passage of time, but they just felt that Long's song "
travelinglight" is sung too briefly, of course, this is just their illusion, good songs always seem short-lived.
After the performance, Chen Feng walked off the stage directly with the guitar and walked to his previous seat. At this time, the thunderous applause of the audience did not stop, and many people along the way got up and applauded to see her return to her original seat, but the accident happened suddenly, a female guest in an evening dress rushed out from the seat next to her and hugged Chen Feng violently.
In fact, Chen Feng had found out before she rushed out, and she could have avoided it, but she thought that this woman might continue to chase after her, and he couldn't watch the live broadcast in front of more than a billion viewers around the world, and there were so many people running and struggling at the scene, so he could only "calmly" accept the "hug" of this Caucasian girl who looked good and had a plump body.
Chen Feng's memory number jΓΉ library has no impression of this foreign girl, but she can sit in the guest seats in the front rows, and she must not be an ordinary identity.
"Long, I love you, my name is Jessica, I'm your super fan, long, you sing amazingly! I love you! This is my number, please be sure to call me. Jessica's face was full of excitement, and she said with a happy flush on her face, and forced a note into the pocket of Chen Feng's shirt.
When the audience saw this, they were in an uproar, and they all looked at this scene in amazement. McDouglas, who had already stepped onto the stage to present the next award, the Best Director Award, also had to temporarily stop his speech, looking at this side with a somewhat embarrassed expression, and the camera lens responsible for the live broadcast to the world also turned to the side of the audience for the first time.
And Chen Feng was hugged by this foreign girl with a sultry figure, a snow-white chest, and most of the white flowers, although he enjoyed it a little, but it was more embarrassing, after all, more than a billion viewers around the world, including his relatives and friends, saw it.
Fortunately, Chen Feng's embarrassment did not last long, and after more than ten seconds, a middle-aged man in his forties came over with an angry face and pulled the enthusiastic female fan away, obviously this middle-aged man is Jessica's relatives or friends, and Jessica did not resist too much, after all, this is the scene of the Oscars. At this time, the plainclothes personnel in charge of security also rushed over, and the two bodyguards, Huang Yong and Zhang Qiangguo, also arrived quickly, escorting Chen Feng back to his seat left and right.
It can be said that such a chaotic situation has been encountered at the Oscars awards party in the past few decades, so that the scene has been discussing this matter for a while, which makes the award presenter on the stage Mike Douglas very unable to get off the stage.
Fortunately, he is also a generation of veteran actors, and he quickly calmed down and said with a smile: "Long's charm has been verified again, even at the Oscars, I can fully understand the impulsive behavior of this young lady just now, because my family and I are also loyal fans of Long." β
