Superstar

In fact, since the emergence of "Jaws", the status of scripts has been declining in an invisible momentum in the past two decades. The lack of excellent original scripts is the most direct proof. After entering the 1990s, the only truly amazing original scripts were only two works, "Pulp Fiction" and "Ice Blood Storm".

Each year’s Oscar’s Best Original Screenplay, there are basically only one or two works that are slightly better, so many people jokingly said: Maybe even the five nominated seats are dissatisfied-although slightly exaggerated. But this is the status quo in Hollywood.

But this year's Hollywood original script has ushered in a real explosion!

"Mind Catcher" has received countless praises. The two fledgling newcomer screenwriters can almost be said to have soared to the sky. The fineness and truthfulness of the script have received unanimous praise, and some people even compare it with the "Death Poetry Society". This makes Matt Damon and Ben Affleck truly experience what is called "an overnight fame."

The same is true for "Boogie Nights". For the first screenwriter and director, Paul Thomas Anderson showed people what a genius is, like a "good guy", with a hearty narrative rhythm, with a degree of relaxation, freedom and digging. The script skills are even more impressive.

As a British film, "Six Heroes of the Pig" almost achieved the hegemony at the British Academy of Film and Television Arts Awards in a sweeping manner. It also received a standing ovation within the American Academy. No one can break the British box office of 257 million U.S. dollars until 20 years later. This is the second work of screenwriter Simon Beaufrey (.).

"Perfect and Perfect" comes from Hugo, and this is only his second independent creation, a detailed and true description. The sharp and cruel characters sparked exclamations in the New York literary world. Many people believe that this work truly reproduces the profound knowledge of screenwriters from the golden age of Hollywood, and transforms life fragments into movies in the simplest and most authentic way. Art retains the original flavor of life, but at the same time it has an artistic effect.

"Deconstructing Harry" comes from the works of New York's warmth Woody Allen. This old man has won thirteen Oscar nominations for Best Original Screenplay. And relied on "Sister Hannah" and "Annie Hall" to win the award twice. There is no need to repeat Woody's skills, this time he has once again dedicated a wonderful work.

Five works. Five masterpieces, five masterpieces! This is a rare explosion of original scripts since the beginning of the 1990s, and it is worth mentioning. Four of the five nominees can be regarded as complete newcomers. "Mind Catcher" and "Booji Ye" are the first works of screenwriters, and "Six Heroes of the Pig" and "Perfect" are both screenwriters. From here, it can be seen that the screenwriters need fresh blood to inject new vitality, and their wonderful reading of the retro scripts of the golden age of Hollywood has successfully injected into their own works, and they have achieved success. Has become their biggest common ground.

This is also a detail: the academy is affirming the interpretation of vintage works by the screenwriters. In fact, this is the same reason as removing "Titanic" from the ten nominated seats in the script. The academy clearly marked the positions of the reformers and the traditionalists, and all of this is foreshadowing. After the award ceremony, the entangled development trend will definitely become clear, which also makes the award ceremony even more sparkling.

This situation is also clearly reflected in the nomination list. When calculated by the work unit, the confrontation pattern is more obvious.

"Titanic" received 14 nominations, tying the historical record of "Comet Beauty (all.. Eve. The works that are also listed as Oscar nominations for film history, in addition to the five awards of Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Supporting Actress. This work has undoubtedly swept a lot of nominations for technical awards, best photography, best art direction, best costume design, best sound, best film editing, best sound editing, and best visual effects. Nine nominations including, Best Original Song, Best Drama Soundtrack, etc. were all included in the bag, making "Titanic" make history in one fell swoop before the award ceremony.

Regardless of the outcome, the academy has given "Titanic" enough affirmation at the nomination stage, which also shows the attitude of the academy: they have truly accepted the commercial blockbuster produced by visual effects and become an irreplaceable part of the market. And just as the screenwriting department showed, the academy also strongly supported the traditional school to make this big show come on stage.

"L.A. Confidential" is a flagship work, followed by eleven nominations, best picture, best director, best actor, best supporting actor, best supporting actress, best adapted screenplay, etc. The nomination is full of weight, except for the absent heroine department, all the main awards are caught in one go! In addition, five nominations including best photography, best film editing, best art direction, best sound, and best drama soundtrack are the icing on the cake, making "L.A. Confidential" the most powerful competitor of "Titanic". .

In addition to best supporting actor and best adapted screenplay, there are as many as nine overlapping nominations for "L.A. Confidential" and "Titanic". The battle between the two will reach its true peak on the night of the Oscars. Battle.

"Perfect" and "Mind Catcher" are also not weak. The former received eight nominations and the latter received nine nominations. Interestingly, the two works also overlapped in seven departments, including the most Best film, best director, best actor, best supporting actor, best original screenplay, best movie editing, best soundtrack, etc.! The only difference is that "Perfectly Perfect" is the best actress, "Mind Catcher" is the best supporting actress, and "Mind Catcher" is only nominated for the best original song, and there is bound to be one between the two works. Fan fierce fight.

Of course, the most important thing is to join forces with the "L.A. Confidential" to fight the "Titanic", but no one can predict the trend of the final prize.

Relatively speaking, although the "Six Heroes of the Pigs" are highly praised, they are still slightly inferior. The four nominations including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and Best Musical Comedy Soundtrack performed well. It is difficult to compete with the other four movies, but no one can tell the trend of the award ceremony. Maybe this movie can become a dark horse.

In addition, "Broken Lock Rage" has also won four nominations, but only the best supporting actor is an important award. This work directed by Steven Spielberg is the first independent investment filmed by DreamWorks. The movie can be regarded as the first heavyweight work since the establishment of DreamWorks, but it is a pity that the reputation is not satisfactory and it is far from reaching expectations. Now Steven has also devoted all his energy to the shooting of "Saving Private Ryan". Hope to achieve a breakthrough.

The truly stunning work on the nomination list is "Boogie Nights". This Paul Thomas Anderson's debut work almost amazed everyone with a posture that turned out to be the best supporting actor, best supporting actress, and best original. The three nominations for the script are not enough to describe the college's love for this work. If it weren't for the overpowering performance of several other works this year, "Booji Ye" is fully capable of replicating the glory of "Pulp Fiction" a few years ago.

Looking at the entire list of nominations, the invisible and intangible confrontation pattern has been fully formed. Four works including "Titanic", "L.A. Confidential", "Perfect" and "Mind Catcher" contributed 42 nominations. The best film, best director, best actor, best supporting actor, best supporting actress, best film editing, best original screenplay and other projects will all start frontal battles, and the magnitude of the momentum has surpassed the eternal residence. Stay in time for the 67th Oscar.

"Forrest Gump", "Shawshank's Redemption", and "Pulp Fiction" jointly dedicated the 67th Oscars. After the precipitation of time, it gradually burst out with great charm, making people deeply aware of that glory. The classic 1994 has become an unrepeatable page in film history.

And now, the seventieth Oscars, where the four works of "Titanic", "L.A. Confidential", "Perfect" and "Mind Catcher" have joined forces, have unknowingly bloomed with powerful energy. Surpassing the 67th is still unknown, but in terms of influence and attention ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ has taken the lead. The important position in the history of film in 1997 has been deeply imprinted in the annals of history.

Just like 1994 when independent films were written brilliantly, 1997 brought together the contradiction and confrontation between traditional retro movies and commercial popcorn movies. The college did not hesitate to put this contradiction in front of everyone, and handed it over to the people and Determined by history, the direction of the film industry for the next ten or twenty years will be maintained on the night of the 70th Oscar, which is very exciting.

The battle of the century with Glory To Death, Mariah Carey, and Oasis is a battle of the century. This matchup is a battle of the century in the field of film. The air can already smell the turbulent breath of the stormy waves, and no one can predict it. The direction of the ending. Interestingly, this time Hugo has become the protagonist again. The battle for the actor of "L.A. Confidential" and the battle for the screenwriter of "Perfect" are all of them. Hugo is one of the most important members. The identities of the producers of the two works vie with the "Titanic".

History is really interesting.

Facing the 70th awards feast, which is destined to make history, the academy solemnly invited Billy Christo as the host of the evening. This shows how much they attach importance to. The battle is about to be on March 20. The curtain kicked off in three days, and the tense atmosphere was on the verge of breaking out! (To be continued)
