Chapter 1155: Strong showdown

The 67th Oscar is undoubtedly a gathering of topics, leaving aside the areas of Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, which are obviously inferior to the discussion, in Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Original Screenplay, Best Editing, and Best Director. In the main event, the strong nomination lineup undoubtedly created the biggest suspense. Each work has its own strengths and also has its own clusters. Who can make a **** way to win the Golden Man? Before the award-presenting guests announce the answer No one can be 100% sure, even the most senior expert.

The award ceremony also proved this point. "Pulp Fiction" and "Forrest Gump" are inextricably killed. Although "Shawshank's Redemption" has not won a prize so far, no one dares to ignore its existence.

Among them, the battle for the best actor is undoubtedly the most anticipated. In addition to the best film, this is the most intense competition, the closest in strength, and the greatest suspense among the various awards this year. After the nomination list came out, the predictions of the winners were endless and overwhelming. The supporters said that almost every candidate has a strong support group, but no one can paint a clear pattern.

In the words of the Chicago Tribune, "Nigel Hawthorne has an 8% chance of winning, and the remaining four candidates have a 23% chance of winning."

This is the case. With the exception of Nigel Hawthorne, who reversed the nomination of "Crazy King George" at the last moment, the strength of the other four nominees is completely different, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the probability of winning is exactly the same.

The content analyzed by the major media is no different from performance strength, work strength, actor prestige, etc. "Crazy King George" is naturally the first to fall behind. It almost turned the tide and entered the Oscar nomination stage at the last moment. If Helen Mirren at least After relying on this work to win the film at the Cannes Film Festival, then Nigel Hawthorne returned empty-handed at the major awards ceremonies. Even the nominations are very few, and his shortlisted nominations are considered to be one of them. A huge upset. No matter from which point of view, he is the candidate with the lowest probability of winning.

As for the other four contestants, it can be summed up in a simple sentence: the competition between three figurine winners and a potential figurine winner!

Morgan Freeman is the "potential gold medalist", this old drama bone who relied on his solid and delicate acting skills in the late 1980s to be loved by film critics, if it weren't for the amazing genius Daniel at the 62nd Oscar- Day-Lewis, "Driving for Miss Daisy" should have won him a golden figure long ago.

In recent years, Morgan has also contributed outstanding performances such as "Unforgivable", "Glorious (, "Street. Smart" and other outstanding performances. Therefore, although he did not get the Little Golden Man, his well-developed introverted acting skills have a group of loyal supporters, and no one can ignore his absolute strength.

Many people believe that Morgan has the potential to become the second black actor after Sidney Poitier (.), replacing Tim Robbins as the "Shawshank's Redemption" battle actor, although it is also because of Morgan's The performance is indeed in control of the rhythm of the movie, but it can still be seen that the college supports Morgan.

In addition to Morgan, the other three candidates are all small gold winners.

Objectively speaking, Paul Newman, who won the 58th Oscar Honor Award in 1986, should no longer participate in the competition in principle, but the whole Hollywood knows the great achievements of this gentleman, and no one will forget that Paul was there. In 1987, when he won the actor at the 59th Oscars for his "money quality", the audience stood up and applauded for three minutes.

So, since Paul can win the actor after receiving the honor award, why can't he win the second seat after eight years? Not to mention that Paul’s contribution to Hollywood is immeasurable. The number of nominated actors for the eighth time is currently second only to Jack Nicholson’s nine times, and Jack already has a best actor and a best supporting actor trophy in hand. Now, Paul is fully qualified to get his second seat; just to say that Paul’s brilliant performance in "Nobody is a fool" makes people stand up for it, which not only won him the Berlin star, but also has many film critics. People's Association has received numerous praises.

No one can ignore Paul.

Next is Tom Hanks. Before 1987, Tom was just a very ordinary member among countless young actors. He appeared in some works of different styles. In comedy works, he used his youthful face to win the audience’s love. Too much difference. But the 1988 "Flying the Future ( changed all of this. This work not only achieved a huge box office success, but also won a Golden Globe Award and an Oscar nomination for Tom, making him from an ordinary vote. Stand out among the actors.

In the handsome Hollywood, Tom’s appearance does not have any advantage. Compared with the other Tom-"Cruise", he looks like the child of the next door neighbor, or the school wears thick Nerd with thick glasses. But Tom is relying on his unique affinity, not only has blazed his own path in acting, but also won the love of the broad audience.

Last year, Tom relied on the "Philadelphia Story" to defeat the mighty Daniel Day-Lewis and Anthony Hopkins, and won his first Oscar statuette, and his prestige rushed to the top for a while; this year, a "Ah" "Kan Zheng Chuan" even made Tom red. It is no exaggeration to say that Tom Hanks's strong popularity is enough to compete with the three handsome guys Hugo, Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. Ah The image of Gan Zhong, honest and simple, has become the most gracious and beautiful representative in the hearts of Americans.

Before the official release of "Pulp Fiction", some media eagerly shouted, "This is the best time for Tom Hanks to make history!" Many media believe that Tom can become a successor to Spencer Qusay. The second actor to win the Oscar winner!

In the long history of the Oscars, there are only four actors who can win the acting awards again. Louis Reiner (.) won the 9th and 10th filming queens, and Jason Robards (.) was in the No. Won the Best Supporting Actor Award twice in the forty-ninth and fiftieth sessions. Catherine Hepburn won the award for the best supporting actor in the fortieth and forty-first sessions. The last was Spencer Cusser in the tenth and tenth. Won the actor twice in a row.

From this set of data, it can be seen that firstly, it is very difficult to win the acting award again; secondly, all the successes were completed before the 1980s, and two of them completed this in the first ten years of the establishment of the Oscars. Albert's.

Tom Hanks got the chance to accomplish this feat this year, and "Forrest Gump" is the perfect opportunity. But he faces the most powerful competitor, Hugo Lancaster.

In Hugo's resume, "Pulp Fiction" is only his second Oscar nomination, and it is the first time he has participated in the competition of the film king. But things are not that simple. Strictly speaking, Oscar owes several nominations to Hugo. Works such as "Death Poetry Society", "Scent of a Woman", "Yihai Xiongfeng", and "Night Sleep in Seattle" are all works. So, not to mention whether there is any strength to win the award, but there is no doubt about the strength of the nomination. This accumulated strength and reputation is Hugo's biggest bargaining chip, even deeper than Tom and Morgan, but only inferior to Paul.

As one of the best performers in the group of actors born in the 1960s, no one can keep up with Hugo. Even Tom Cruise, who used to shine in the 1980s, can’t. Hugo’s performance has been gained. With the unanimous praise of film critics and professionals, this is very rare.

Following last year's "Schindler's List", Hugo once again dedicated a wonderful performance in "Pulp Fiction", not only won him the title of Cannes actor, but also led the creation of a series of incredible independent films myth. In terms of contribution to Hollywood, the youngest Hugo is definitely not the weakest.

At the same time, if Hugo can defeat a group of competitors to win the title of actor, then he will become the first Oscar actor under the age of thirty in film history. This feat will undoubtedly break the confinement of Oscar's favorite middle-aged actor. , Making history again.

What's interesting is that the four actors, Morgan, Paul, Tom and Hugo, have similar performance styles this year. They are all restrained and delicate. They use their acting skills and a thorough understanding of the roles to shape their performances. As a result, Nigel, who has to act wildly and arrogantly affects the audience, said that the acting skills of these four actors do not show too many traces on the screen, and more of them are the recollection caused by the careful aftertaste after the end of the movie.

More importantly, the works behind these four actors are outstanding, including Paul's "No one is a fool". They all have solid competitiveness and can stand the test. But at the same time, the four actors have their own shortcomings. Tom just aspired to be the actor last year. Hugo’s works are too strong and too young~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Morgan is black, Paul is 70 years old, and no one can account for it. Cheap. The shortcomings were obvious but none of them were fatal, so the four people were brought back to the same starting line.

This also means that the work is strong and the performance is strong, even the actor's reputation and momentum are comparable, which constitutes the strongest duel at this year's Oscars except for the best film!

Especially for the two works of "Pulp Fiction" and "Forrest Gump", even if Morgan "Shawshank's Redemption" wins the actor, "Shawshank's Redemption" does not necessarily win the best film, but Will change the situation; on the contrary, whoever wins the film king of these two works can basically finalize the final best picture award; and if it is Paul-or even Nigel's spoiler, the best picture trend will fall into one again. The group is foggy.

The whole body is touched by a move. The excitement of the best actor award almost condenses the essence of the audience. This is undoubtedly the biggest attraction tonight, and even in terms of suspense creation, it exceeds the best. Film. Because whether the suspense of the best picture can continue, it depends on the direction of this award.

The breathing of the audience seemed to have stopped.

Under the gaze of much attention, last year's actress Holly Hunter curled onto the stage!
