The New Year of 1994 kicked off with a buzz with Michael Jackson. The children's case finally ended in an out-of-court settlement, with Uma accompanying him. The sleeping case took over as the hottest topic at the beginning of the year, and in the midst of this hustle and bustle, various year-end inventories came one after another, and Hugo undoubtedly became the biggest focus in 1993.

Since its inception in 1974, People magazine has gradually become a part of American culture, and they are one of the most accurate and effective magazines in the world, and since 1985, the magazine has selected the title of "the world's sexiest man" every year, Mel Gibson, Tom Cruise, John Jr. and John F. Kennedy. f。 kennedy。 jr。 ), Sean Connery (Sean. Ery) and others have been awarded this title.

The world's sexiest man is a title of special significance, similar to the "Time" magazine's annual selection of the world's sexiest man of the year since l927, "Time" magazine of the year covers all fields, and the selected object can be a man, a woman, a couple, a group, a region, a machine, and even an idea, the important thing is whether it is good or bad, but the most influential of the past year, a summary of the whole year.

The same is true of the title of People magazine, which not only represents the charm of this man, but also a retrospective of the past year, charismatic and popular, and at the same time a great success in his own field. To put it simply, it is the people magazine that considers the most representative man of the past year, which is definitely a great honor and can be considered a socio-cultural symbol.

Time magazine's 1993 Person of the Year was named by a group of people, including Nelson Mandela. Mandela), Frederick - William - De Klerk (F. w。 de。 Klerk), Yasser Arafat (Yasser. arafat), Yitzhak Rabin (Yatzhak. rabin)。 In fact, these four figures are the Nobel Peace Prize winners in 1993 and l994, and their contributions to the defense of human rights and peace in the conflicts between South Africa and Palestine and Israel have been recognized accordingly.

People magazine awarded the title of the world's sexiest man in 1993 to Hugo Lancaster, and released the last issue of the magazine's year-end summary in l993 with Hugo as the cover.

In a one-sentence review of the magazine, the editor-in-chief said, "From movies to music, from appearance to spirit, from youth to maturity, this man's charm is mesmerizing, and his warm smile that fascinates people illuminates the whole of 1993." ”

"People" summed it up in a detailed report, "The great success of Sleepless in Seattle has made Hugo the most romantic image in the minds of all women, and has subverted the stereotype of chick movies for men; The excellent performance of "Schindler's List" subverted Hugo's stereotype in everyone's minds, perfectly combining evil and sexy. And when these two works achieved box office success and became the biggest favorites at the Golden Globes, people are not surprised at all, because this is the right result brought about by Hugo's strength.

'Almost famous' became one of the best footnotes in the golden age of rock in 1993, and Glory to Death and the Pumpkin Band, Goatskin Band, Tainted Band, and Radiohead together constituted a new generation of forces that impacted the rock and roll pattern, and the Nirvana Band and Pearl Sauce Band representing the current rock and roll forces, and the Smith Spaceship Band and Fast Eyeball Band representing the old rock forces, together formed a three-point situation, and re-substituted the music market into the rock era again!

When appearance, talent, temperament and wisdom are condensed into one person, Hugo Lancaster is born. After Barbra Streisand, the entertainment industry has once again seen a well-rounded artist who can perform both movies and music brilliantly, opening up a new era that is eye-catching. ”

It can be said that "People" magazine selected Hugo as the sexiest man in the world, which is Hugo's brilliant achievements in l993 to the extreme, whether it is a movie frenzy or a rock 'n' roll revival, Hugo can be seen, which is indeed breathtaking, even if l993 is called a year that belongs to Hugo, no one will object.

Not only "People" magazine, but also "Entertainment Weekly", "American Weekly" and "The New Yorker" and many other magazines have also locked their own selection of the person of the year on Hugo.

In December and January alone, seven American magazines used Hugo as their cover, and there were countless reports focusing on Hugo, which also made it clear that Hugo is so popular today.

If someone compares Hugo and Uma together, it is definitely a world of difference, on the one hand, Hugo became the person of the year in 1993; On the one hand, Uma has just finished working as the heroine of a movie but no one cares, and this strong discrepancy is the most realistic portrayal of Hollywood - or society as a whole.

But obviously this is not the extreme of the difference, with the emergence of the Golden Globe nominees and the Grammy nominations, this gap has been widened step by step to new limits.

After the announcement of the nominees for the 51st Golden Globe Awards, Steven and Spielberg undoubtedly became the biggest focus, and the outstanding performances of the two films "Schindler's List" and "Jurassic Park" made Steven the only top filmmaker who could compare with Hugo in the whole of l993.

"Schindler's List" won six important nominations, including Best Picture in a Drama, Best Director, Best Actor in a Drama, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay, and Best Film Score.

The only work that can compete with "Schindler's List" is the "Farewell to Lovers" five nominations for Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor and Actress in a Drama, and Best Screenplay, which were hyped up by "Confrontation" not long ago, which can almost be said to compete head-to-head with "Schindler's List" in all aspects.

In terms of actors, Hugo and Emma and Thompson have once again become the focus of attention, with Emma receiving double nominations at the Golden Globes this year after sweeping the awards season actress title last year; Hugo, on the other hand, received a double nomination for acting for the second year in a row after last year.

Emma was nominated for Best Actress in a Drama Series for "Farewell to Love", and relied on "In the Name of the Father" (in. the。 name。 of。 the。 Father) was nominated for Best Supporting Actress and is definitely the most popular top actress today.

Hugo relied on "Sleepless in Seattle" to be nominated for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy, and "Schindler's List" brought him a nomination for Best Supporting Actor, which not only continued Hugo's great cause of double nominations at the Golden Globes last year, but also further confirmed Hugo's name as the most powerful new actor today.

Two years ago, Hugo was still crying at the Golden Raspberry Award ceremony, but now, Hugo has proved his strong strength with two Golden Globe Award double nominations for two consecutive years, and what is even more terrifying is that Hugo's four works starred in after the Golden Raspberry Award have all achieved box office success, and all have won the corresponding acting recognition, which is not only the brilliant rate of 100 hits, but also the fact that Hugo's acting strength is now presented.

In such a situation, even the academic school, which is known for its old-fashioned and strict sù, cannot ignore Hugo's performances, because Hugo proved himself with one performance after another, and also made people realize that the failure of works such as "Hudson's Eagle" was only accidental, not inevitable.

Therefore, there is no doubt that when the list of Golden Globe nominees was announced, Hugo became the center of everyone's attention, which also added to Hugo's glory in l993.

However, Hugo's double nominations last year failed to bear fruit, and he returned empty-handed in the Oscar nominations, although the critics were aggrieved by Hugo at the time, believing that Hugo's performance was worthy of praise, but the Academy's rejection of the Golden Raspberry Award still prevented Hugo from going further; And what about this year? Will Hugo's double nominations be recognized, and what kind of treatment will the Oscars give Hugo?

Objectively speaking, Hugo does not have an advantage in the competition for best actor in a musical comedy, because Robin Williams's "My Fair Daddy" is obviously the biggest favorite.

But in the competition for Best Supporting Actor, although Hugo must face "different sky ......" Leonardo DiCaprio, "Outlaw" Tommy - Lee - Jones, "Sniper in the Line of Fire" John - Malkovich, "Dawn of Sui Xiao" (carlit0, s. Way)" Sean and Pan's encirclement, but Hugo still has a certain advantage, and it is very likely that Hugo will win the recognition of the first real acting award in his career as an actor.

Among them, the competition between Hugo and his friend Leonardo is also one of the hottest topics in the media after the nomination list came out.

But regardless of whether he wins the award or not, being able to win the double nomination for the Golden Globe Award again is a huge affirmation for Hugo, which also pushes Hugo's 1993 watch to a new height, even if the list of winners has not yet come out, but Hugo's strength has been undoubtedly recognized by the public.

Compared with Hugo's rise in the actor industry, the road to glory to death in the music field seems to be much bummer, after all, the name Hugo Lancaster has been rolling in Hollywood for more than ten years, but the footsteps of glory to death in the music world have just taken the first step, and he is definitely a complete newcomer.

As the most prestigious and authoritative awards in the field of music, the Grammys are similar to the Oscars in the film field today, Americans always like to jokingly call the Oscars the father of the awards ceremony, and the Grammys are the mother of the awards ceremony, which shows the important position of the Grammys.

But the Grammys are obviously not interested in such an independent band as Glory to Death, and they even debated the qualifications for Glory to Death at one point!
