On January 28, the 51st American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards ceremony was held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel.

LV Pictures' films received a total of 16 nominations at this year's Golden Globe Awards.

"Pulp Fiction" received six nominations, including Best Picture (Drama), Best Director, Best Actor, Best Screenplay, and Best Supporting Actor and Actor.

"The Age of Innocence" received four nominations, Best Picture (Drama), Best Director, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actress.

"Escape from Las Vegas" received five nominations, including Best Picture (Drama), Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Original Screenplay.

"Unethical Deal" received one nomination, a nomination for Best Actress.

Miramax Pictures also performed well. It received 9 nominations for its two films "Blue, White, Red" and "The Piano Lesson". These two films are foreign films, and Harvey won the North American nomination.

He is also responsible for distribution rights and public relations awards. Obviously this guy is a veteran.

It's just that this year, with the big killer "Schindler's List", other movies are more likely to accompany it.

On the day of the award ceremony, Duca and Monica watched the award ceremony broadcast at home.

The Golden Globe Awards Ceremony is divided into film and television categories, and the film category is divided into drama and comedy categories, with a total of 13 awards.

In the end, "Schindler's List" won the two biggest pieces of cake, the best film in the drama category and the best director award.

"Pulp Fiction" only won the best screenplay award, and the winners were Quentin Tarantino and Roger Ivory.

"The Age of Innocence" only won the Best Supporting Actress award, and the winner was Winona.

Out of 16, 2 out of 16, performance was mediocre.

The main reason is that LV Pictures’ public relations focus mainly on the Oscars, and not much on the Golden Globes.

Among the 9 films released by Harvey, 1 was nominated, and "The Piano Lesson" won the Best Actress Award.

Tom Hanks won the Best Actor in a Drama Series for "Philadelphia", and Robin Williams won the Best Actor in a Musical Comedy for "Meet Me".

The Chinese film "Farewell My Concubine" won the Best Foreign Language Film Award.

"I have only won two Golden Globe Awards. It is more difficult to win more Oscars. How many do you plan to win?"

Monica asked leaning on his shoulder.

“It is almost impossible to secure three and four awards for Best Picture and Best Director, so we can only work hard on a few Actor Awards.

[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo to read and catch up on books recently. I can switch sources and read aloud with many sounds. www. Android and Apple are available.]

For the Best Actor Award, Cage has to compete with Tom Hanks and John Travolta, the King of Dance. The King of Dance is the leading actor in "Pulp Fiction" and Tom is the leading actor in "Sleepless in Seattle."

In fact, there is no harm in taking it from any of these three people.

As for the heroine, Demi Moore was barely able to get a Golden Globe nomination for Best Actress. It's even harder to get an Oscar nomination because the cost is too high and it's not cost-effective.

Sharon Stone's performance in "Las Vegas" is still lacking, and she is still far away from winning the Oscar for Best Actress.

This year she will be nominated for a warm-up. She will star in "Casino" next year and hope to have the opportunity to compete for Best Actress again.

For Best Supporting Actor and Supporting Actress, Samuel Jackson can be shortlisted, but it is difficult to win the award. The same goes for Uma Thurman. Winona has a great chance of winning Supporting Actress, so we will try our best to win.

For the remaining Best Original Screenplay, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Costumes, and Best Dubbing, try to get nominated first and try to get one or two."

Duka combed her hair and said.

Monica smiled slightly, "Listening to you, it seems easy to win an Oscar."

"It's not simple to say it's simple. Behind movies are movie companies. Behind movie companies are Wall Street and consortiums. Movie companies controlled by capital are relatively restrained and conservative in public relations awards.

If the opportunity is good, they will use public relations efforts. If the opportunity is not good, they will choose to give up. Their investment behavior needs to be accountable to the boss behind them.

But independent production companies like LV Pictures and Miramax don't need to be too restrained. The funds are in our own hands. We can spend 10 million for prizes. If we hit, it's better. If we don't, it doesn't matter."

Duca said.

"The news says that among the major international film awards, the Academy Awards have the worst atmosphere. Film art has been seriously polluted by capital, and you are also one of the sources of pollution."

Monica poked his chest.

Duca smiled, rubbed her thigh and said, "Without capital, there would be no prosperity in Hollywood. The main reason for the decline of Italian and French films was that the films were too niche and less profitable, which led to all capital flowing to more profitable ones."

Hollywood, and the fact that some people are willing to spend money for the Academy Awards shows that its gold content is high enough.

If one day no one is willing to publicize the awards, it means that the gold content of the Oscar trophy is being lost.

So what we are doing now is not pollution, but investment. Just like stock trading, we try to increase the value of the Oscars to attract more capital. With more funds, we can make more movies and promote the prosperity of film art.

develop."

"That seems to make sense. Oscar should give you a lifetime achievement award."

Monica joked.

"This is not impossible. Our LV Pictures supports half of the sky in the field of independent production. We may not be eligible to receive the Lifetime Achievement Award in the future. When the time comes, we will receive the award together."

"OK!"

Monica smiled.

The Golden Globe Awards are over and the results of the Academy Awards will be announced at the end of March. The current job of LV Pictures is to release "Sleepless in Seattle".

Since January, the promotion work for the movie "Sleepless in Seattle" has been launched one after another. Columbia Pictures Distributor and LV Pictures Distribution Department plan to release the film the day before Valentine's Day, which is February 13th.

February is at the end of the winter vacation and is not considered a slow season or a peak season. However, there are relatively few releases during this period and the competition pressure is relatively small.

"Seattle" is a movie starring Tom Hanks and Mayne Gray. It tells the story of a young bachelor with a child. Through the hotline of a radio psychiatrist, he meets Annie, a high-quality single woman, by chance. The two end up in Empire.

The plot of "Meeting in the Building" has many similarities with the old movie "Golden Jade Alliance".

The film was completed in August last year and was originally planned to be released in December. However, last year's winter holiday schedule was too crowded, so the film was released on Valentine's Day.

In order to build momentum for the movie, the publisher has been hyping up this year's Valentine's Day in newspapers, and has also teamed up with many brands to hold events, which has generated considerable momentum.

Duca also invited many friends to the cinema in advance to attend the premiere ceremony.

The main ones invited are friends who are interested in each other, such as Mr. and Mrs. Rivers, Cage and his new girlfriend, Depp and Kate Moss, Quentin and Uma Thurman, etc.

"Hey, Duca, why didn't you send me an invitation?"

Keanu Reeves called to question.

"It's like this. That movie is quite touching and suitable for couples to watch. You might be embarrassed if you go. I'm doing it for your own good."

Duca explained.

"Huh, Duka, you underestimate me too much. I have a girlfriend now. I am not single."

Keanu said loudly.

"Really? When did you find him? You agreed in advance that hiring someone with money doesn't count."

"Fake, Duka, you are so underestimated. I am looking for a real girlfriend."

Keanu was furious.

"Okay, my fault, I will arrange movie tickets for you."

Duca smiled.

"Ask who his girlfriend is?"

Monica reminded.

"Who is your girlfriend? Do we know each other?"

"I won't tell you."

Keanu hung up the phone angrily.

Duca shrugged his shoulders indifferently and would find out after the premiere.
