Exploiting Hollywood 1980

"It is now Wednesday, March 29, 1989, at 4:30 in the afternoon. I am reporting to you outside the Los Angeles Temple Auditorium. Tonight, in this white auditorium behind me, the 61st Academy Awards will be held. Awards ceremony……"

The televised footage used the two minaret-shaped spiers of the Los Angeles Temple Auditorium as the backdrop for the live broadcast. The white marble building is very eye-catching. This organization, known as the Freemasonry of the Middle East, aims to promote the culture of the Middle East, so the architectural style is very much like some kind of religious facility.

"Now there are some stars who have arrived early. What we see is Jodie Foster, who was nominated for Best Actress in "The Pear Blossom". Ah, lovely Jodie..."

The host exclaimed for a reason. Jodie Foster wore a light blue strapless dress today. Blonde and blue-eyed, with snow-white skin, her face looks as innocent as when she played a teenager, but her body is already that of a mature and sexy woman.

She smiles very sweetly, which is related to her mentality. Jodie Foster hasn't made a lauded film in years. After many years, she was able to return to the Oscars as a guest, and she was happy from the inside out.

After graduating from Yale, Jodie Foster has not made any box-office movies. She is already seriously considering plans to quit the entertainment industry. Anyway, the producers have lost confidence in her box office performance. There was only one nomination for the movie "The Robbery" this time. According to history, it is almost impossible to win. Being able to come back and appear in front of tens of millions of viewers, there is nothing to regret even if I retire later.

"Here's Sigourney Weaver with two nominations..."

When the host saw Weaver, who was wearing a long white dress with sloping shoulders, he immediately abandoned Jodie Foster. This one is today's big hit. "Gorillas in the Mist" was nominated for Best Actress and "Working Girl" was nominated for Best Supporting Actress. Only four people in history have received this honor of being nominated for two acting awards. And, all four received a statuette.

"Sigourney, you were nominated for two awards tonight, which one do you prefer to win?" The TV camera focused on Sigourney Weaver. Her dress was prepared by Princess Diana's royal tailor. The level of tailoring is very high, and the whole person exudes the elegance of an intellectual woman.

"Aha... First of all, the awards are chosen by my judges, and I respect the results. I personally have no preference for the two characters, I like them both..."

Sigourney Weaver internally rolled her eyes at this question. You ask as if I am sure to win a prize? But before the footage is broadcast, all I can do is talk nonsense.

The host seemed to understand that his own questions were not popular, and he began to interview the celebrities who came later.

"Now, let's get some blue moonlight - Bruce Willis and wife Demi Moore..."

It seems that although "Die Hard" did well at the box office, in the eyes of the public, Bruce Willis's most famous role is David in Blue Moonlight Detective Agency. And his wife, Demi Moore, also made her first big appearance after giving birth.

In order to cover up her postpartum waist, Demi Moore specially chose a black low-cut suit. Although the waist is much thicker, the bust is also one size larger. This is how celebrities take advantage of their bodies.

"Next is the famous director Ronald Lee, and the actress Diane Lane..."

Ronald kept smiling all the way and stayed quietly beside Diane, using himself as a background for Diane, who was also wearing a dress made by Princess Diana's royal tailor.

On the TV across the street, he saw the host's previous interview with Sigourney Weaver and made up his mind to just smile and not speak.

Diane went through the pre-entry cutscene beautifully, and it will definitely be included in the broadcast today.

"Bruce, Demi..." Ronald arrived at the entrance and happened to meet Demi Moore and his wife there.

"Ronald..." Demi came over and hugged him. Her bulging chest made Ronald feel different from the previous touch, and she suddenly blurted out, "Didn't you bring the child?"

"Hahaha, Rumer is at home, and the nanny is with her..." Bruce Willis took out his wallet and showed Ronald a photo of his daughter.

how to say? Their eldest daughter perfectly blends the characteristics of their mother and father. Demi Moore's facial features are very three-dimensional, her chin is a bit square, and she has a heroic spirit. But this kid's chin looks more like Bruce's, and he'd be handsome as a boy.

"Tom Cruise and wife Mimi Rogers..." There was a commotion ahead. Probably the star with the most fans today, Tom Cruise is here.

Mimi Rogers had a high-top wavy haircut today, and she seemed not to be wearing flat shoes, making her a head taller than Cruise.

Ronald was a little surprised. Originally, Mimi Rogers paid great attention to maintaining Cruise's image.

They also came over to greet Ronald. It was not good for three to six people to block the door, so they walked inside.

The stars that followed were another Tom - Hanks and his new wife Rita Wilson. The two also met because of acting. Last year, Tom Hanks divorced his first wife, who has two children, and married her. Today, Rita Wilson came to the Oscars for the first time as Mrs. Hanks, and she couldn't hold back her smile from the bottom of her heart.

The venue where the awards show was held had much more space than the old venue. After Ronald and Diane came in, they saw many nominees already sitting down. The organizing committee is very clever in its arrangements and is well aware of the backgrounds of these nominees.

Maybe it's CAA, William Morris and other agencies that provide them with a lot of information. Some people who usually play well, have a common background, and have a common ethnicity will try to arrange them together.

For example, Alan Parker, the nominee for Best Director, is surrounded by actors with British backgrounds and European actors, such as the Swedish actor Max von Sydow, the nominee for Best Actor.

Dustin Hoffman is surrounded by some Jewish practitioners, such as Barry Levinson, the director of "Rain Man".

Of course, there is also the most conspicuous group of black people. The most famous among them, Eddie Murphy, who choked the organizers for not giving awards to black people last year, was not invited this year.

As for Ronald's surroundings, in addition to the main creators of "Working Girl", Melanie Griffiths, Sigourney Weaver, there are also some people who have no group background and no backers.

For example, Adrian Lane, who directed "Fatal Attraction", collaborated with Hollywood and made many erotic films, so Alan Parker's self-righteous British gang did not like him very much.

There is also the "grown-up" actor, Tom Hanks, who was nominated for Best Actor, and arranged their crew to be closer to Diane. Even female director Penny Marshall also sat relatively close to Ronald.

These people all have one thing in common. They are not Jewish, and they have not joined any small groups based on their origins or interests. They are all left behind, and they are naturally closer to people like Ronald who are kind to others.

More celebrities came in one after another. Ronald was very popular and often had to stand up to say hello to subsequent guests. At six o'clock in the evening, staff members in tuxedos began to fill in the empty seats of latecomers so that the empty seats would not be captured by the TV broadcast.

After a burst of classic Hollywood soundtrack, the entire awards ceremony began.

"Ladies and gentlemen, President of the American Academy of Film and Technology, Richard Kahn..."

Ronald was surprised when the ceremony started. Alan Carr, the producer, did not set up a host. A voiceover announced the name of the first guest, and Mr. Chairman walked to the stage by himself.

"Why did he want to award the award in the first place?" Diane was also confused. Chairman Richard Kahn, holding a large replica of the Oscar trophy, just said this?

"The first award is for Best Supporting Actress." Ronald looked at Richard Kahn and talked about his memories of attending the Oscars two minutes ago, and then invited the first guest of the day, TV star Tom Serik.

"Why did he go down with Oscar again?" Diane was confused again.

"Uh..." Ronald also felt that this year's awards process was too strange.

Last year, the Oscars invited comedian Chevy Chase to host, with disastrous consequences. The entire awards show was filled with vulgar, unfunny jokes.

This year, in order to correct a mistake, they actually went too far and didn’t set up any host at all? Just like this, the guests come out one by one, and then introduce the next guest by the way.

For example, Tom Selick, who is on stage now, is the protagonist of the hit show "Hawaii". The person on stage is the presenter for the Best Supporting Actress award. He is also the leading actor of the hit show "Miami Vice". Don Johnson, and his "best friend," Melanie Griffiths.

Fortunately, Melanie and Tang were now in love, and they had a tacit understanding and talked about cross talk on stage. The story of the two of them getting married, having their marriage annulled by their mother, and then becoming lovers again many years later was so gossipy that the audience forgot about the inexplicable cutscene just now.

The two teased themselves a lot about their previous relationship as husband and wife and now that they are together again. Don Johnson finally said that he should hurry up with the awards process and listen to the gossip of the two of them. He would go to the supermarket tomorrow to buy some gossip magazines and read on them how he was abducted by a UFO for six years.

Joan Cusack is also a nominee for the Oscar for Best Actress. She and Sigourney Weaver are a double hit. Also nominated was Frances McDormand for "Mississippi Burning." and Michelle Pfeiffer in "Jobs."

Because "Working Girl" had two nominees, the camera panned twice. Ronald showed a standard smile and clapped rhythmically.

"And Geena Davis in The Unexpected Passenger." Melanie Griffiths spoke the final nominee.

"Finally the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress goes to...Geena Davis," Don Johnson declared loudly. Nowadays, at the Oscars, you can’t say winner (Winner), but you have to say “Goes to” which is much more neutral.

It is obviously the most competitive award, but it is made to look like it is not competitive, with no winners and no losers. In other words, everyone is a winner.

Ronald didn't know who would suffer better from this deception. Is it the nominees in person, or the audience in front of the TV?

"I think I want to thank the original author, but also my best acting coach, Royce London. And my other acting coach...my husband Jeff Goldblum..."

Geena Davis's lake blue evening dress is also from the brand Givenchy, which makes her look very noble and elegant.

Melanie Griffiths, the presenter behind the award, was not happy. Her handmade dress was compared with the other party. Geena Davis's diamond necklace also compares to her own ruby ​​necklace.

Most importantly, the role of "the unexpected traveler" originally belonged to her. Later, the manager recommended her, so she gave up and went to play Ronald's "working girl". At that time, her agent told her that if she wanted to win an Oscar, she should play "The Accidental Passenger"; if she wanted to become famous and become a star, she should play "Working Girl"

It’s hard to say whether she is a star now (a large part of the media reports revolve around her boyfriend Don Johnson). Geena Davis actually won the best supporting actress statuette.

"Fortunately, I still have a nomination for the leading actress." Melanie Griffith put away her thoughts, motioned to Geena Davis, who had finished her speech, and went down the stairs together.

Today's award ceremony was very strange. After Geena Davis finished her speech, no one came to remind her, and she had to be reminded by the award presenter.
