Hollywood Road - Chapter 704
“Nominated for Best Original Screenplay…”
On the stage, Jessica Alba turned to the big screen behind him, and the screen was showing the nominees and the film, “American Hoax,” Eric Seag and David O-Russell; Brascar, Bob Nelson; “Dark City”, Murphy Stanton; “Blue Jasmine”, Woody Allen; “Dallas Buyers Club”, Craig Bowden and May Lisa Warreko.”
Jessica Alba opened the envelope, “The Oscar winner is Murphy Stanton, “The Dark City”!”
There was another round of warm applause at the Dolby Theater. Murphy stood up and walked quickly to the stage amidst the applause around him. When passing by the location of the crew of “The Great Gatsby”, he vaguely saw Leonardo- DiCaprio had a slightly angry face, but didn’t care at all.
He went directly to the stage and took over the Oscar statuette representing the best original screenplay award from Jessica Alba.
“Congratulations, Murphy.”
Jessica Alba gave Murphy a light hug, and Murphy nodded lightly, “Thank you.”
Subsequently, Murphy walked to the center of the round stage and said, “Thank you! Thank you academy, thank you everyone on the “Dark City” crew, thank you my friends and partners, you are the best!”
After simply saying this, he turned his head and walked towards the backstage.
Entering the backstage, Murphy declined the ABC TV reporter’s request for an interview. Accompanied by a staff member, he entered the special passage and circled back to the main hall of the Dolby Theater. When he sat on his seat, it happened to be Ai Len DeGeneres is introducing the award-giving guests.
“Daniel Day Lewis, the last Oscar winner for best actor…”
With the sound of music, Hollywood’s most atypical actor Daniel Day-Lewis took an envelope and walked onto the stage.
Margot Robbie, who is on the right of Gal Gadot, immediately tensed, because the next thing to be awarded is…Best Actress Award!
Thirty feet away from the “Dark City” crew, Cate Blanchett looked at the “Dark City” crew and she knew exactly who her main rival was.
Not Sandra Bullock, not Amy Adams, not Meryl Streep, but Margot Robbie who is also Australian!
“Five outstanding women were nominated for best actress.”
It may be a special design. The unusually short string of words is in the style of Daniel Day-Lewis. “The nominees are…”
The big screen lights up again, “Amy Adams, “American Hoax”; Sandra Bullock, “Gravity”; Meryl Streep, “August Orange County”; Margot -Robbie, “The Dark City”; Cate Blanchett, “Blue Jasmine.”
There was silence in the Dolby Theater, and everyone was waiting for Daniel Day Lewis to announce the final result.
Murphy turned his head and glanced at Margot Robbie. Margot Robbie was obviously nervous, and he grabbed Gal Gadot’s hand with one hand.
Then he took another look at the crew of “Blue Jasmine”.
The only real competitor of “Dark City” in this award is Cate Blanchett. Amy Adams is not very popular with the academics. Sandra Bullock’s face is stiff with injections, Meryl -Streep will continue to refresh the nomination record, but it is very difficult to get another best actress.
On stage, Dennis Day-Lewis has opened the envelope, “The best actress is…Margot Robbie, “The Dark City.”
Murphy immediately clapped his palms, and everyone around him began to applaud. The applause quickly spread to the surroundings and finally gathered into a sea.
Margot Robbie covered her mouth in shock. It seems that she still can’t believe that she won the Oscar for Best Actress. Amidst the congratulations around her, she slowly stood up and talked to the nearest Gale. -Gadot and Murphy hugged, then walked to the stage.
Leonardo DiCaprio has a gloomy face, all bad premonitions are coming true.
Not far from him, Kerry Mulligan watched Margot Robbie step onto the stage with envious eyes. This Australian actress actually won the Oscar for Best Actress… If, if you stay in Mexico forever Beside Fei, he should be the one who walked up to accept the award at this moment, right?
Kerry Mulligan gave a bitter smile.
“Thank you, thank you judges. I… I am really… so… so excited!”
After receiving the Oscar statuette that Dennis Day-Lewis handed over, Margot Robbie seemed to be too excited to herself, “I want to thank too many people.”
She paused, adjusted her breathing slightly, and then said, “First of all, I want to thank Murphy. Every time I cooperate with him, I can see my shortcomings and make great progress. I also want to thank Gal Gadot. , You are my best friend and always inspire me to keep moving forward. I want to thank my family, David, Peter, and Lelia. I will never forget your concern. Finally, I want to say that it is The independent, free and democratic atmosphere of Hollywood has made us brilliant.”
When he said this, he undoubtedly stood in the position of the liberals, and there were countless cheers on the scene.
Margot Robbie cited the statuette, “Any force’s censorship of Hollywood is interfering with freedom!”
No one thought that Margot Robbie would say such controversial words on such an important occasion, but there was no argument or sarcasm in Dolby Theater, only a cheer!
No Hollywood film practitioner likes to see the inexplicable censorship under the banner of morality fall on his own head.
The applause was far more enthusiastic than when Margot Robbie came to the stage to receive the award. On the “Dark City” crew, everyone stood up, and then all the guests in the front row stood up and applauded, as if Margot- Robbie said what they felt!
Murphy is also applauding vigorously, and no one, including him, likes scrambled censorship.
It is true that Hollywood movies have MPAA graded production, but this is only Hollywood’s internal self-assessment. MPAA’s right to speak lies in the hands of the six major Hollywood companies, rather than external forces. This grading system is consistent with the Catholic Church in the last century. The ethical censorship of Hollywood movies established by the churches is worlds apart.
It was precisely when the so-called moral censorship was smashed that Hollywood films truly embarked on the fast lane to dominate the world film market.
Movies and televisions in every country have a certain degree of censorship, but in all fairness, no practitioners in related industries like too strict restrictions.
For example, when Murphy was on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, he used his summer vacation to go to a film and television company to work. Although he was engaged in the lowest-level chores, he also saw the extreme exaggeration faced by the company when preparing a TV series. Rigorous review.
A TV drama that reflects ordinary people’s business and entrepreneurship needs six departments to review.
In the process of establishing the project, one of the main characters of the TV drama going abroad to work requires review by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Public Security; small merchants and hawkers are arrested by the Bureau of Industry and Commerce and need to be reviewed by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce; the characters in the play go to northern Shaanxi to play oil and need to be reviewed by the Ministry of Land and Resources and the Ministry of Energy. Review with the Central Propaganda Department; farmers who are ignorant of doing import and export business must also be reviewed by the Ministry of Commerce…
At that time, Murphy was stunned. Although many so-called ministries and commissions did not perform scissor review, just a stamp was enough, but I believe many people know how difficult it is.
If a similar censorship system falls on Hollywood, I am afraid that most practitioners in this circle will collectively go crazy.
Just as Murphy was thinking about it, Jennifer Lawrence, the winner of the last Oscar for best actress, stepped onto the awards stage, preparing to award the best actor.
Leonardo DiCaprio immediately cheered up. Even if he knew that his chances of winning the prize were very small, who did not want to take away the little golden man who got the nomination?
James Franco is very calm, although he has not won the best actor before, he is not as nervous as Margot Robbie before.
“It is a great honor to be able to present the next award.”
Jennifer Lawrence seems to pay special attention to the feet, “The performances of these five nominated actors are very contagious and fascinating. Someone who won the best actor nomination…”
She turned her head to look at the big screen, “Matthew McConaughey, “Dallas Buyers Club”; Chewart Egarford, “Twelve Years as a Slave”; Christian Bell, “American Hoax”; Leon Nardo DiCaprio, “The Great Gatsby”; James Franco, “The Dark City”!”
Murphy is very calm. Compared to Margot Robbie’s best actress, James Franco has a greater chance of winning the best actor!
CAA basically didn’t invest much resources in Matthew McConaughey. It’s luck to get the nomination; Chiwat Egarford’s qualifications are too low. To get this nomination, it’s more about taking care of the fragile black uncles. The glass heart of Christianity; how Christian Bell is basically doing public relations, obviously accumulating qualifications; Leonardo DiCaprio’s chance of winning is lower than that of Chevat Egafort…
In Murphy’s view, James Franco’s best actor is the one who holds the most.
Jennifer Lawrence opened the envelope and read the same answer as Murphy thought, “The best actor tonight is…James Franco, “The Dark City”!”
Hearing this name, Leonardo DiCaprio’s face instantly became ashes. It was one thing to know that his chances of winning were low, but it was another thing to watch the enemy win the prize.
But after all, he was a superstar accustomed to seeing wind and waves. Before the camera lens swept over, he settled up, put on a smiling face, and started applauding with the others.
