Chapter 573 Annie, I love you!

"The truck driver is helping Michael Moore hide in the back of his limousine."

After the host Billy Christo walked onto the stage, he used jokes to try to downplay the obviously extreme remarks just now.

The organizer probably knew the difficulties faced by this Oscar, and deliberately put the award for Best Actor and Actress in the middle. After last year, the Best Actor once again appeared in front of Best Actress.

Because of Charlize Theron's absence, the award presenter of the Best Actor was replaced by legendary superstar Barbara Streisand.

Ryan also paid enough attention to this award. The one who won the award in his previous life is still struggling in the corner of Hollywood. Who will this award fall in this life? Is Leonardo DiCaprio, who has been nominated, still not welcomed by the Academy?

"Leonardo DiCaprio's "New York Gangster", Nicholas Cage's "Adapted Screenplay", Michael Kane's "Silent American", Jack Nicholson's "About Schmidt"..."

"The best actor tonight is..." Barbara Streisand opened the envelope and read out the answer directly, "Michael Kane "The Quiet American."

The veteran actor from the UK became the final winner, and the former Oscar winner of Best Supporting Actor finally stood on the top podium.

Looking at the old actor with gray hair, Ryan applauded, and another idea came to his mind. Last year's Oscar downplayed the political influence to a certain extent, and it seems that he should maintain enough political correctness this year?

Britain is a hardcore ally of America. If uniting the British is the necessary choice now, what about the Australians?

Considering from the perspective of the other side of the ocean, Australia is a hardcore boy in the United States.

As in the past, films and characters will never be the only factors that win the award, and there are so many things that can affect the Oscars.

Although the theme of the party is to "moderately reflect reality" and to adjust according to the situation, although the black evening dresses of many celebrities also set a solemn tone for the party. But when pregnant Zeta Jones went on stage with a big belly, when the ruffian Emu was talking and singing, and when the bizarre images appeared on the stage again, Hollywood was still the same Hollywood.

Glory and luxury are always an indispensable part of this circle.

Two years ago, Ang Lee won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film with the Chinese martial arts film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", which gained countless reputations and money, and also inspired the lingering Oscar plot of the directors on the other side.

So, another director also appeared at this Oscar with a super martial arts production, hoping to compete for the best foreign language film.

"Heroes" is released by Miramax. If Harvey Weinstein or Ryanken makes all his efforts in public relations, this movie is not without hope of winning.

But neither of them did this. Ryan's resources were tilted towards Nicole. If he wanted to win one of the best actors and actresses three times in a row, how could he not do all his efforts in PR?

As for Harvey Weinstein, he has almost devoted all his energy to "Chicago" and "The Gangster of New York", and "Hero" is still some time before it is released in North America. How could he work hard to promote it?

Although the other party also did some work after coming to North America, outsiders were destined to make a difference at the Oscars without support.

Penelope Cruz appeared on the stage as an award presenter. "The following videos: "The Sin of Father Amaro", "Where is My Home", "The Man Without a Past", "Hero", "Men Are Married", and were nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film of the Year."

"These are all very excellent movies, unfortunately there is only one winner." She looked down and said, "Where is My Home. Congratulations to Caroline Link!"

A German film took away the Best Foreign Language Film of the Oscars this year.

There is no surprise. Several old members of the academy mentioned it at a party held by Nicole last Christmas. Compared with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Hero" is for Easterners, while the former is for Westerners.

Others may not know, but the investor Ryan knew that when Ang Lee adapted the script of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", it was first completed in English and then translated into Chinese. As for many expression techniques and details, it was done to cater to the tastes of Americans.

After Billy Cristo made a few more jokes, last year's Best Actor winner Russell Clow came to the stage and he awarded the Best Actress.

Ryan's brow frowned slightly. If he had not won the Oscar for Best Actress, it would have been natural for Nicole to win the award, but if he had won it once a few years ago, it would have reduced the possibility of winning. Julian Moore and Renee Zellweger were both strong rivals.

Russell Clow on the stage cooperated with the screen on the big screen and introduced the nomination list, "Salma Hayek "Freda", Diane Lynn "Infidelity", Nicole Kidman "Everything", Julian Moore "Far from Heaven", Renee Zellweger "Chicago".

At the critical moment when deciding whether to win the award, Nicole's eyes suddenly left the stage and found exactly where Ryan was. The moment she looked over, Ryan's eyes also turned around. The two smiled at the same time, and then separated again with peace of mind.

"Are you nervous?" Antonia Kidman asked in a low voice.

Nicole shook her head slightly. It wasn't a few years ago. She had experienced so much in recent years. Even if she had any ideas, she could perfectly control her emotions.

Who will win the final prize? Ryan swept across Russell Clow's face, a key member of the Australian Gang, and a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Nicole Kidman, "Everything", congratulations to Nicole!"

The fake nose was not in vain and the resources invested were not in vain. Nicole welcomed the second Oscar winner in his life.

Clapping his palms hard, Ryan stood up first, and everyone around him stood up. Then, with him as the center point, the theater stood up and applauded, looking at the new actress who was increasingly whiter and set off by the black dress.

Nicole hugged her sister, hugged the rest of the crew, then glanced here, walked onto the stage, and took over the Best Actress Little Golden Man from Russell Clow.

"Thank you for the Academy! Thank you for all the judges of Oscar!"

She stood in front of the microphone, although she looked very happy, but she couldn't say too excited. "Thank you very much. I do have something to say thank you. Russell, I'm so happy to hear you! Thank you very much for pronounced my name."

"Thanks to Director Stephen Dalderley, thank you Drew Barrymore, you are all the best partners, I thank you so much."

"I have a lot to say! Thank you to all the staff of Flower Pictures and Jenkins Pictures. It was your collective efforts that led to my success this time. Thank you to Ryan, Pie Kinsley and Scott Swift who have been firmly supporting me over the years."

She paused, as if she was organizing the language.

"I am so excited to be here tonight. What I have to say is why do you come to the Oscars when a world is in turmoil? Because art is important! Because we firmly believe in our careers! We must stick to our responsibilities! This tradition must be carried forward!"

"At the same time, there are indeed many problems in the world. After 9/11, many families experienced bereavement pain, and now there are wars, and many families will lose their relatives. God bless them!"

"In the end, my sister Antonia was sitting there..."

She looked at Antonia Kidman, "She has given me so much support over the years, Anne, I love you!"

There was another warm applause in the theater, and Nicole, who was standing in the position of Best Actress in the Oscar for the second time, turned into the backstage.

"You're the winner again."

When he sat back in the chair, Ryan heard Peter Jackson's low questioning, "Is there any trick, Ryan?"

“Do all the work you should do.”

This kind of occasion is not a place to exchange public relations experience, Ryan just replied casually.

Although Nicole was able to win the award was a result of a combination of multiple factors, she finally won the second best actress, Little Golden Man. No matter what, Ryan thought that at this point, she completely surpassed her previous life.

Of course, when it comes to her status and achievements in Hollywood, she has long since left Nicole Kidman at the peak of her previous life.

When he turned to look at the crew of "Yest Moment", he saw Nicole and Antonia Kidman whispering, and Ryan turned his gaze back to the stage.

Without "The Pianist", will Oscar choose Martin Scorsese? Although the other party's style is indeed not popular with mainstream people.

“The winner of the best director is…”

After saying a few words about the Iraq War was not that bad, Harrison Ford finally opened the envelope, "Rob Marshall, "Chicago."

The Kodak Theater was strangely quiet for half a second before warm applause rang out. Some people looked at the lucky Robert Marshall, but more people looked at Martin Scorsese. The famous director's face was not very good.

Not to mention the quality of the movie, qualifications and reputation, Martin Scorsese is a complete defeat of Robert Marshall, but the best director is his home.

Ryan's eyes passed over Robert Marshall and directly found Harvey Weinstein. This fat man really has great experience in public relations. I believe he has put a lot of effort into winning the award.

This is destined to be an Oscar for "Chicago". After winning the Best Director, Cork Douglas and Michael Douglas, who jointly presented the awards on stage, handed over the Best Picture Little Golden Man to this film. (To be continued...)
