Superstar

In 1999, entering the last year of the new millennium, the hustle and bustle of the film market and the music market has accumulated enough power. It seems that everything is waiting for the moment of outbreak, and the legend of the "millennium bug" crisis has gradually reached its peak. , So that people have reason to believe that after entering the 21st century, everything will start over.

In this wave, the 56th Golden Globe Awards kicked off on January 24.

In fact, the attention of this year’s Golden Globes has reached an unprecedented height, not because of the works on the nominated list, nor because of the guests present, but because the concept of "awarding season" appeared in front of people for the first time. . As the most influential awards ceremony in the United States other than the Oscars, the Golden Globes has always been regarded as the "Oscar vane". Everyone knows clearly that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is actually relying on the speculation college to base itself on the market.

As the first year of the commemorative awards season, people are looking forward to: How high will the Golden Globe winners and the Oscars coincide with the Great Sacred Codex.

Especially in the past few years, the final list of the Golden Globes has seen many jaw-dropping and dumbfounding results, which is even more eye-catching this year. No one knows what kind of answer sheet the Golden Globes will hand over, and what kind of impact it will have on the Oscars.

But for the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the hidden worries of joy almost made Michael Roselle lose his hair. The current Golden Globes can win so much attention is the result of Michael's painstaking efforts in the past three years. This year, there is no need to create a nomination list or attend the gimmick of the guests, just the list of winners is enough to be eye-catching, which is a huge affirmation of Michael's work.

But! Hugo Lancaster will be absent from this year’s awards ceremony again. Before the Golden Globe nominations came out, Hugo had already determined that he would not attend—this time the reason is known throughout Hollywood: Hugo is concentrating on it. He devoted himself to the adaptation of "Beautiful Mind", and even the premiere ceremony of the work "Girl. The Devil" by his friend Charlize did not appear.

This reason couldn’t be clearer, but it was undoubtedly a huge blow to Michael’s work, and even more frightening were Leonardo DiCaprio, Alexander Lorraine, Toby Marquee Er and others will all be absent from the awards ceremony, and the chain reaction almost caught Michael off guard.

Not to mention whether these people can win the nomination, and in what capacity will they be present at the awards ceremony, but it is certain that these people are currently the most watched actors in the United States, and their absence is for the Golden Globe Awards. For the ceremony, it was undoubtedly a huge blow.

And Michael still doesn't know how far-reaching Hugo's influence is. If he and Hugo head-to-head, how many people in Hollywood would be willing to stand on the side of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association? In fact, Michael can be sure that everyone will still support the Golden Globes. After all, the relationship between the Hugo and the Golden Globes is just a personal grievance. No one will bet on their career prospects, but Michael has no way to be sure. Those invisible influences on the surface-such as influence, attention, authority, importance... These invisible factors are precisely the most important part of an awards ceremony, and they also determine the "economics of the awards ceremony." The decision link of "interests".

More importantly, every time Hugo launches works are absolutely outstanding, even the academy can hardly ignore it, let alone the Golden Globe Awards?

Therefore, Michael couldn't beat or scold Hugo, he wanted to itch his teeth and greeted him with a smile on his face.

After the media confirmed the news, 1999 has entered, but this has not affected the uncrowned kings' good mood to join in the fun. People are all wondering: Is the Golden Globes going to be awarded to Hugo this year?

In fact, last year’s Golden Globe Awards awarded the best actor in the drama category to the "L.A. Confidential" Hugo, and expressed his commendation to Hugo, plus the previous "before sunrise" won the best actor in a musical comedy. The protagonist, Hugo, can also be said to be quite rewarding at the Golden Globes.

But the "Perfect" Best Screenplay Award was lost to the "Mind Catcher" Ben Affleck and Matt Damon. Although the Golden Globes have always played well in the technique of dividing the cake, this is the commercial benefit. The necessary skills to maximize; but this decision is once again a sigh-it’s not an accident, I just feel that the bad debt between the Golden Globes and Hugo is really unclear, especially after the Oscar’s "death prisoner" After "Walking", he ran against the Golden Globes again and awarded the best original screenplay to "Perfectly Perfect". Now Michael's mouth is even more bitter.

So, what is the prospect of Hugo at the Golden Globes this year?

Among the nominations announced in mid-December, "Saving Private Ryan", "Trumen's World", and "Shakespeare in Love" were undoubtedly the biggest winners. One and six nominations took the lead, and the wave of the awards season was burned above the Golden Globe Awards.

Intriguingly, the number of nominations for "Saving Private Ryan" is less than that of "Shakespeare in Love", and the leader is "Trumen's World". This pattern really makes people have to think about it. But no matter how much you think about it, it's just a guess. The real ending still depends on the list of winners.

On January 24th, the Hollywood Hilton Hotel was full of stars and shining stars, but Hugo’s absence for seven consecutive years still made the red carpet bleak, coupled with Leonardo’s absence, even more so many reporters. Complaining; even a huge lineup like Tom Cruise, Tom Hanks, Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Ben Affleck, Matt Damon can’t get rid of their hearts. I'm sorry to blame the doctor.

On the contrary, Heath Ledger, who relied on "Saving Private Ryan", was born, and it made many people shine, like a ray of fresh air, adding a lot of style to the red carpet.

After the four-hour award ceremony ended, one of the most important ceremonies of the award season came to an end amidst people’s discussions. There were not many surprises, but it was also full of countless variables.

In the battle for the best film in the drama category, "Save Private Ryan", "Thin Red Line", "The Horse Whisperer (the..., "Elizabeth (, "Gods and Beasts" (. and. was shortlisted for the final competition.

These five works can be said to be a lot of topics, but the real focus has always been on "Saving Private Ryan" and "Thin Red Line". Almost everyone knows that the winner will be one of the two. . In the end, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association chose "Save Private Ryan", which is regrettable but there is no controversial choice, because if the final result is another work, people's evaluations will also be the same. One of the two works. The competition between the two is already a victory in itself.

This pattern has continued to compete for other awards in the drama category!

The five nominees for the best actor in the drama category are Sean Penn of "Thin Red Line", Tom Hanks of "Saving Private Ryan", and Stephen Frey of "Wild ( .Fry), Ian McLean (ian.) of "Gods and Beasts", and Nick Knott of "Suffering".

Among them, Sean and Tom are undoubtedly the biggest winners. The other three actors are not weak and have the ability to overturn the hottest. However, the biggest feature of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association is the "way of balance." Even if there is a dark horse, it can always be found elsewhere. Generally speaking, the overall trend is relatively stable, and this year is no exception.

In the end, Tom Hanks relied on his outstanding performance in "Saving Private Ryan". Following the "Forrest Gump" in 1994, he won the award again after four years, which made Tom into the 90s. The only actor who can be compared with Hugo. The "two Toms" in the United States-Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise, can be said to be two pillars that cannot be ignored in the entire film market.

This time, Tom relied on "Saving Private Ryan" to create another career peak, which is impressive, and he deserves his final victory. However, the opposite was the upset of the Best Actress Award in the Drama category, which made many people frowned.

Cate Blanchett of "Elizabeth", Ferranda Montenegro of "Central Station" ~www.wuxiaspot.com~Female. Charlize Theron from "The Devil", Meryl Streep from "Family is priceless (one. true., and Emily Watson from "She is lonelier than fireworks (. and. ( .), became the final top five player.

Although this year’s competitors are strong, including the well-known "Central Station" and "She is lonelier than fireworks", Meryl, who has already been among the ranks of old dramas, has won the nomination for the first time. Unanimous praise; but no one can deny that Charlize’s performance in "Female. The Devil" is so good that it eclipses others is still the biggest hit.

However, this year’s Golden Globe Awards again tried to show her "different". The best actress in a drama category was finally awarded to Cate Blanchett, who was previously unknown but relied on "Eliza "White" turned out to be an Australian actress who defeated Charlize and won the award.

Although Charlize is only twenty-three years old this year, Kate is six years older than Charlize. In terms of age, Kate's award appears to be a lot more logical; but in the eyes of many people, this result is absolutely It is an upset, and it can even be said to be a result that has shaken the trend of the entire awards season.

From this perspective, it can also be seen that the Golden Globes, which has been dedicated to the art of balance, are indeed standing in a sensitive and warm manner. Ambiguous crossroads.
