Chapter 75
At this Oscar,"The Sixth Sense" received a total of seven nominations - namely: Best Picture, Best Editing, Best Original Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Actor, Best Director.
Among them, the most certain ones should be Best Actor and Best Original Screenplay.
It is undeniable that Bruce Willis did give an actor-level performance in the film, but - his competitors are also very strong!
《Roberto Benigni of"Life is Beautiful", Tom Hanks of"Saving Private Ryan", Ian McKellen of"Gods and Beasts", Edward Norton of"American X", all of them are very strong.
On the contrary, it was Martin's"Best Original Screenplay" as an alternative plan for"Best Supporting Actor". It was more likely to win, but -
Martin looked at Harvey and stopped thinking about it.
After the main event of Best Supporting Actress, a series of technical awards were presented.
Harvey's"Shakespeare in Love" produced and distributed by Miramax and DreamWorks'"Saving Private Ryan" almost split these technical awards.
After winning Best Supporting Actress,"Shakespeare in Love" successively won awards such as Best Original Score, Best Art Direction, and Best Costume Design.
"Saving Private Ryan" won several awards for Best Film Editing, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound, and Best Cinematography.
"Life is Beautiful" failed miserably in the technical awards and only won the Best Soundtrack Award (Non-Original).
Then came the presentation of the last technical award—the Best Screenplay Award.
"An excellent movie needs an excellent script. The script is the foundation of the movie. It is very important... Every excellent script embodies the hard work of the screenwriter.……"
"Let’s take a look at this year’s Oscar nominees for Best Original Screenplay—
Mark Norman and Tom Stoppard’s"Shakespeare in Love."
Martin Meyers,"The Sixth Sense."
Vincenzo Crami, Roberto Bernini,"Life is Beautiful."
Robert Rodat,"Saving Private Ryan."
Andrew Niccol,"The Truman Show"》"
"Martin, you don't seem nervous at all. How do you do that?"
Bruce Willis on the side originally wanted to remind Martin to keep a good attitude. Unexpectedly, he turned around and saw the boy sitting there leisurely and contentedly, with no trace of nervousness. He was very surprised.
Martin took a sip of juice. , said with a smile:"Because I have no hope at all.
He pointed to the big screen,"Obviously!" There's no way I won"Shakespeare in Love"》!"
"Shakespeare in Love?"Bruce Willis didn't understand why Martin thought so," There seems to be nothing surprising about the script of this movie?"
"No, it's not because its script is so good, but because that guy Harvey's public relations efforts this year have been too great, and he used a lot of little tricks. As soon as Martin finished speaking, the award presenter on the stage had already opened the envelope and read out the winner,"The winners of the best original screenplay are Mark Norman and Tom
Stoppard of"Shakespeare in Love"!"
Bruce Willis was obviously startled, and then immediately controlled his expression, tilted his mouth, smiled and clapped.
Martin was also smiling and applauding, and he didn't look disappointed at all.
The camera swept over and didn't catch them at all.""Handle".
Martin looked at Bruce Willis from the corner of his eye and thought to himself:"It's not a bad thing that you have a crooked mouth when you smile. At least people can't tell whether you are smiling sincerely or sarcastically!""
Bruce Willis was a little nervous because of what Martin just said.
"What does Martin mean?"
"Did he get any news?"
"How strong is Harvey's public relations push?"
"Will it affect my Best Actor award?"
The next award is - Best Foreign Language Film.
The nominees are:
《"Life is Beautiful" Roberto Bernini (Italy)
《Grand Central" Walter Salles (Israel). (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
《Tango Love" Carlos Saura (Argentina)
《Grandfather"José Luis Garcí (Spain)
《Children of Paradise" Majid Majidi (Iran).
In the end, just like the original timeline,"Life is Beautiful" won this award.
After the Best Foreign Language Film award, there is the Best Supporting Actor award.
Martin subconsciously looked towards Harvey again, just in time to see the fat man turn his head and look over, giving him a thumbs up.
What does this fat guy mean?
Harvey made this move twice, which made Martin confused, and then he felt something in his heart.
Wait, he remembered that in the original timeline, Harvey was fully engaged in Gwyneth Paltrow, the woman who was later called the most popular actress at the Oscars. Does that mean... that he gave up the best actress ? Actor, Best Supporting Actor, Best Supporting Actress?
There is no such information in Huaxia Martin's memory, which leaves Succubus Martin to rely on speculation.
In fact, he was right.
In the original timeline, Harvey Weinstein went all out for Best Picture and Best Actress on the movie"Shakespeare in Love."
Although the Best Supporting Actress award was also won by"Shakespeare in Love", it was done by actress Judi Dench herself and had little to do with Harvey.
The 55-year-old Judi Dench has a lot of connections in the film academy.
Martin, who was already in a bad mood, became slightly nervous again.
Succubus Martin still attaches great importance to the Oscar. As the most influential film award in the world, the Oscar statuette can bring him fame and status, giving him greater influence and a broader fan base. It also has more sources of magic power.
In fact, as long as he is willing, he can use magic to influence the judges.
But he feels that he is still young and can afford to wait, so there is no need to worry about this kind of thing.It takes time, energy and magic.
When you reach the age of Leonardo DiCaprio in the future, if you haven't won the Oscar yet, you can give it a try.
Meg Ryan, the famous American sweetheart, took the stage to present the Best Supporting Actor award.
She first read out the list of nominations:
"~An excellent movie (Zhao's) can never be without the wonderful performance of supporting actors. The nominees for this year's Oscar for Best Supporting Actor are……"
James Cobain"Misery."
Robert Duvall,"The Forbidden Truth."
Ed Harris'"The Truman Show" study.
"Shakespeare in Love" by Geoffrey Rush.
Martin Meyers,"The Sixth Sense."
Bruce Venice secretly glanced at Martin, who still had a calm expression on his face, and felt a little complicated.
On the one hand, he hopes that Martin will win; but on the other hand, he hopes that Martin will not win, so that his hope of winning the Best Actor will be greater...
He feels ashamed of his latter thought, but he can't help it. He controlled himself not to think like this, and his expression became tangled for a moment.
At this time, Meg Ryan read out the name of the winner. The winner of this year’s Oscar for Best Supporting Actor is……"
