Angela's best soundtrack is both reasonable and unexpected. There is no shortage of young nominees and winners at the Oscars, but most of them are performance awards. She is indeed young and outrageous for the work of film soundtracking. , 16 years old - well, just 17 years old - is a girl again, and the first nomination, winning the award is a bit incredible.
But being nominated for two films on the soundtrack - even though her name is fourth on the list for Endless Island - speaks volumes! And Miss Mason seems to have gotten used to playing against herself. She was nominated for Best Supporting Actress and Best Song for the first time at the Oscars. Now she has repeated nominations for Best Score and Best Original Screenplay. Isn't it a show of strength.
Besides, with so many people in the industry who have worked with her, are John Williams, James Cameron, or members of the Philharmonic, and Hans Zimmer all idiots? So at least there was very little criticism at the scene, and the crew of "The English Patient" could only continue to be depressed.
The awards are still going on, and the momentum of "Titanic" has finally come to an end. The best makeup in the nominated awards was won by "Professor Fat Guy", which makes other nominees feel a little relieved and hopeful.
"The best original script won is "Frozen", Ethan Cohen! Joel Cohen!" When Jack Nicholson announced on stage, Angela didn't look disappointed at all, smiled and applauded It doesn't look contrived at all.
"It seems that you don't care that you didn't get the best screenplay, you must know that you have two screenplays nominated." Rachel became half-smiling after being surprised: "Or because you have won enough, So is it possible?"
"Of course not," the girl shook her head flatly and told the truth, "To be honest, in my eyes, the script of "Titanic" can only be regarded as a mediocre level, and there is nothing special about it. Being nominated is already the greatest success . As for 'The Island,' it's pretty good, but unfortunately Oscar doesn't like thrillers."
"It's surprising that you actually commented on the "Titanic" script like this. That's your work." Although his mouth was surprised, his tone seemed to be ridiculing.
Angela rolled her eyes at her: "Whatever it is, as the heroine, you should know how much weight the script plays in the success of "Titanic"."
"Okay, then..." Lei Er smiled and changed the subject, "According to you, my chances should be high."
"Although Nicole's performance is very good, except for a few members - such as Jodie Foster, not many people rely on the thriller to get the most heroine, and it's okay to say that her chances are not high. But... "Girl He tilted his head and looked at her with a teasing smile. "Compared with this one, which one do you think is more likely to win the award when you are nominated for the first time?"
Rachel shrugged and stopped talking. The best cinematography on stage after the original script was once again won by "Titanic."
At this moment, a male staff member came over and whispered, "Excuse me, Miss Mason, please come with me?"
"It's about to start?" Angela raised her eyebrows, said sorry to the people around her, and said hello to James across the seat. Then she got up and followed the man to the back of the stage, noticing the girl The people in the action were whispering, and she all went backstage, which meant everyone knew.
"Please sit here, Miss Cox will touch up your makeup." The other party led her to the dressing table, and then pointed to the woman who had been waiting beside him for a long time.
"Thank you, but no, I can do it myself." The girl sat down in front of her child, and then smiled at the men and women who were sitting in front of the other dressing tables to touch up their makeup. In this regard, she never played a big role. Something like a separate dressing room, of course, it can also be said that she does not have that awareness.
"But, Miss Mason, this is my job." Ms. Cox hesitated.
"It doesn't matter, this makeup is done by myself. It took a lot of work. If you are not familiar with my style, it may be self-defeating." Angela explained, "Besides, I haven't changed my clothes yet."
"So you're here, Angela." A figure hurriedly pushed open the door of the makeup artist. It was Cameron's assistant, Matthew White. long skirt.
"You came so fast." The girl said, taking the long skirt and going to the changing room, Matthew stopped her again.
"And this." He took out a small black box from the pocket of his suit and handed it to her. The girl blinked her eyes and understood, and couldn't help sighing, "Do I have to wear it?"
"The boss's meaning." Matthew smiled, "Besides, isn't it appropriate for the beautiful Miss Mason to bring this?"
"Got it." Angela rolled her eyes, walked into the room and quickly changed her clothes. The long black dress with sleeves and high collar made her look more solemn and elegant, especially when she put on the box When the necklace—heart of the ocean, if the necklace that her mother designed for her was suitable for her off-the-shoulder dress, then the heart of the ocean was suitable for her current dress, but she just felt good, and it was someone else Maybe they will find a way to buy the heart of the ocean.
With the help of Ms. Cox - handing over the equipment and so on - Angela took ten minutes to complete this simple touch-up, and when she came to the back of the stage, the man in front of her The singing is coming to an end, but fortunately I caught up. It would be embarrassing if she didn't take the seat by the time the other party finished.
In the applause, the male singer thanked him and walked down from the side. After the folding door slowly closed, Angela knew that it was her turn. Inviting singers to sing the nominated song before the award of the best song is also one of the Oscars' repertoire, but the girl doesn't feel much nervous. As early as when she decided to sing "My Heart Will Go On", she knew that such a day would come , She believes that her performance of this song is not inferior to Sister Xi, so what's the problem with singing at the awards ceremony
She walked a few steps to the microphone stand in the center of the stage. The band behind her had already turned over the sheet music and started to prepare. Then, the lights in the hall were dimmed. The girl took a deep breath and placed the Irish tin flute not far below the microphone. He took it down and put it to his lips, and the melodious sound of the tin flute rang out immediately.
It's not the beginning of "My Heart Will Go On", but the part with the most tin flute flavor before the first song in the original soundtrack. This is Angela's request. It only takes about ten seconds. Small salute. With the melodious sound of the tin flute, the moving door in front of her was slowly opened, and a girl in a dignified dress playing a musical instrument appeared in front of the audience. Although it was indistinct in the dim light, it also added a hazy beauty to her.
The pleasant sound of the tin flute passed by for a short time, the melody of "My Heart Will Go On" officially sounded, and the beautiful singing voice wafted immediately. When the girl's musical instrument was put back in its original place, it seemed to enter a state, where she stood on a few feet. The bow of the Titanic ten years ago, facing the oncoming sea breeze, confided everything about the lovers.
When the climax came, the sound became very penetrating, and that kind of shocking feeling was beating the hearts of the audience all the time, and even the heart of the ocean in the chest became more and more brilliant.
At the end of the song, there was a tsunami of applause in the hall, and Angela's superb performance of 120% made people mesmerized. Xu's interpretation of "My Heart Will Go On" will be difficult to surpass today's performance, so this live performance has become the most classic scene at the 69th Oscars!
"The perfect singing is really enjoyable. I suddenly feel a little jealous of Mr. Vogel who is far away in New York. Miss Mason must have sang to him a lot." Billy still had to brush his lips even when he praised, "And, Miss Mason's lyricism is just as good, so—welcome Mr. Schinger."
The bulky future governor stepped onto the stage in a white dress, and to be honest, his stern expression was better than a smile.
"A movie can't do without the title song, just like a fish can't do without water, so the list of candidates for the best song is as follows." Schwarzenegger said, waving his finger to the big screen on the left, "Evita", "Double Mirror", etc. Waiting for the movies to flash by one by one, of course, "Titanic" is absolutely indispensable.
"Then, the winner of the best song is-" The future governor opened the envelope, and then laughed out loud: "Congratulations, you are indeed back, Angela! "My Heart Will Go On"!"
After the laughter, the applause sounded again, and the enthusiasm was no less than the praise when she sang to Angela. Everyone knew that this talented lady once again broke the Oscar record and won 3 small gold medals in a single session. people! Even though she admits that the costume design is just a coincidence, the Film Academy has given her the trophy, hasn't it
The girl immediately came out from behind. She was still wearing her singing costume and the Heart of the Ocean. After the performance, she didn't go backstage to change her clothes because she didn't have time. She called her name but couldn't come out, or It would be too embarrassing to change it too quickly and accidentally reveal a little.
"Thank you, Mr. T-800, I said I would be back." The girl took the trophy from Schwarzenegger with a smile. Facing the audience watching her, she had mixed feelings for a while, but it took 1 minute. She didn't speak, but fortunately she was a little quick-witted: "Well, I just passed the name in my head once, there are so many people to thank, it will take a few minutes just to read the name."
There was laughter.
"Then just say a few words briefly. Thank you to everyone who supports me and loves me. This is not just my personal effort. Thank you." The girl raised the trophy, then turned her eyes to James with a naughty smile: " Well, a single thank you to James, but just a little!"
Laughter again.
"Look, look." Billy sighed. "If you say 'I'll be back', you can win an award. So next time I participate in the Oscars, I must say it dozens of times, and then use legitimate means to bring all the statues home!"
Laughing loudly again.
The next award was for Best Supporting Actor. Neither "Titanic" nor "The English Patient" were nominated, so the final master was Cooper Gooding Jr. of "Mr. Sweetheart"! Also an excellent actor.
But this black guy is really funny. He said "I love you" about 14 times on stage, and the objects of love ranged from God to Tom Cruise, the star of "Sweetheart". Finally, the impatient band had to interrupt him, and he still didn't forget to add: "Everyone in the show, I love you! I love you! I love you!"
This kind of sensationalism made everyone laugh, and then, Oscar night is coming to an end, and only three awards have yet to be announced - Best Actress, Best Director and Best Film!
Whether it is the "Titanic" Grand Slam or the "British Patient" is reflexive, everyone will wait and see!
