From Flower Vase to Film Emperor in Hollywood

Perhaps the voices complaining about the Golden Globes dividing the cake will never cease.

But at the same time, no one can deny that the influence of the Golden Globes is still top-notch. It's hard to tell whether it's a case of the more famous you are, the more you get criticized, or the more you get criticized, the more famous you become.

A seemingly unimportant Golden Globe nomination for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy serves as a testament to Anson's strong rise in Hollywood.

This marks Anson's second entry into the Academy's view after winning the Emmy Award for Best Guest Actor, and still in the comedy category. Anson himself probably didn't expect it—

that he would actually be a comedic actor.

Not only Edgar, but also a barrage of celebratory text messages from friends, even more frantic than when "Spider-Man" broke box office records continuously this summer, lifting Anson's spirits along with them.

Of course, due to the influence of the Best Director nomination list, speculation about behind-the-scenes manipulation has also extended here. How could Anson, a twenty-year-old idol and pretty boy, win a nomination? Isn't this definitely a nomination bought with money?

However, the controversy only surfaced briefly, then vanished without a trace—

Look at what you're talking nonsense about. The Golden Globe nominations for Musical or Comedy are always weak, because there are really too few comedy and musical works worth mentioning during the awards season each year, so that there are often cases of filling the ranks with inferior products.

Looking at this year's nomination list, is Hugh Grant's nomination serious? Is "Adapted Screenplay" entering the musical comedy category a joke? Richard Gere is basically a supporting role in "Chicago"! And Adam Sandler, instead of complaining about Anson, why not look at Adam!

As they talked, those critical voices laughed at themselves.

Moreover!

If you want to complain about behind-the-scenes manipulation, why not look at the nomination list for Best Supporting Actor in the Golden Globe Awards' television category this year—

By the way, one of the proofs of the Golden Globe Awards' strong influence comes from this: it is the most influential comprehensive film and television award in North America.

This year, there are as many as nine candidates for Best Supporting Actor in the Golden Globe Awards' television category, one-third more bloated than the Best Director nominations in the film category, which is really outrageous and absurd, to the point of laughing out of anger.

Although the Hollywood Foreign Press Association argued that the supporting role category is not subdivided, so the candidates in the supporting role category include drama, comedy, mini-series, and TV movies, and the number of final nominees is inevitably uncontrollable.

But.

Nine people?

This is still too exaggerated.

In contrast, there are five seats for the Best Supporting Actress nomination in the television category.

So, what's going on here again? There are countless excellent supporting actors, but few excellent supporting actresses. Is that what it means?

If you want to complain, Anson's nomination is not even on the list.

The Golden Globe Awards once again earned a wave of traffic for "Catch Me If You Can."

Then, things happened naturally—

Everything fell into place.

First, the surprise appearance of the flash mob event, then TMZ leading the fashion trend, and "Fashion" magazine adding fuel to the fire to ignite the traffic, one wave after another of topics can't stop at all, from Christmas to New Year's Eve.

2003 arrived.

Thousands of eyes were all focused on Anson.

To be precise, the last stop of the "Catch Me If You Can" flash mob surprise event:

New York.

Countless speculations all fell on New York, not only because New York is the largest city on the East Coast, but also because starting from Los Angeles and ending in New York forms a closed loop, undoubtedly drawing a perfect conclusion to this event.

The focus is on when and how Anson will appear and where, so that this event will come to an end in a special way and bring surprises again.

Expectations are rising little by little.

The heat has reached an unprecedented height. This is definitely the most magnificent, grand, and lively event after the millennium New Year's Eve.

And it reached its peak on this day—

January 3rd, Friday.

Judging from various signs, Anson's footsteps began to move north after Miami, step by step approaching New York. Today is very likely to be the end of this event, which stirred up a commotion throughout New York City.

Starting in the afternoon, a wave of movie-watching frenzy began in large and small cinemas throughout the city, which is evolving into a large-scale performance art event:

Comparable to the real-world game "Find Waldo".

The movie is no longer the focus.

What "Catch Me If You Can", what flash mob events, and even Anson himself, have gradually ceased to be the focus itself. This matter has become a trend, a trend of keeping up with the times, integrating into the young group, and creating the history of the era. Everyone is eager to participate in it, even if they have no interest in the movie and Anson or even watching the movie itself, they don't want to miss it.

Thus.

One by one, they blindly joined the trend and became a part of the torrent of the times.

The cinema is becoming the most fashionable and special event venue during this New Year's period, and it has been given a brand-new meaning by young people. This is definitely an accident.

In a trance, thoughts returned to five years ago, and the slightly blurred memory instantly became clear again. At the end of 1997, a movie called "Titanic" accompanied the panic of the end of the world at the end of the century and became a must-see movie for everyone.

This time's "Catch Me If You Can" has a slightly different form, but the emotional resonance is the same, especially among the younger generation.

Perhaps, the only difference is that the trend of "Titanic" swept the world, while the trend of "Catch Me If You Can" followed Anson's footsteps all the way forward.

After the peak of New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, the film market actually erupted with incredible energy before returning to calm, once again ushering in a wave of peak.

This scene was faintly predicted by professionals a week ago, but they still had some worries and doubts, after all, such a thing had never happened before.

Until now—

Beyond imagination!

It not only broke expectations, but also swept the entire market in a devastating manner. The vast energy made the harsh winter also overflow with rolling heat.

So, where is Anson?

The core figure of all the focus, and also the object of trend pursuit, where are the footsteps of Anson Wood now? Has he arrived in New York yet? Why haven't the paparazzi discovered Anson's whereabouts yet?

Wait, is it that the paparazzi has been silenced by Anson?
