"But the problem is that no matter what transaction they make, it's invalid, and the decision is in the hands of the jury, isn't it?" It only took a few seconds for Rachel to give the answer, although she was speaking in a calm tone. , but the fleeting complex look before did not escape Angela's eyes.
"It's a pity, I thought I could make a fortune by selling it on newspapers." Angela, who was somewhat confused, stared at her for a few seconds, gave up the teasing and tentatively shrugged and planned to change the subject.
But without her speaking again, another voice came over at this time: "God, if a competitor has a few words and a deal is made, then I don't dare to talk to you again, otherwise if you don't get the trophy, others will say I forced you to let it go."
"This joke is not funny, John." Angela turned around and looked at the old man who came to her with some amusing.
"Not funny? So what's the expression on your face?" John Williams spread his hands teasingly.
"That's because you used my jokes to make fun of me." Angela retorted, then opened her arms and hugged him lightly: "I'm so glad to see you here, John, how does it feel to be nominated? "
"Don't worry, it won't threaten you. I've got enough of the best soundtracks." The old man continued to tease with a smile, "I can decorate the facade as an old man, and the awards are left to you young people to compete for. "
"It's not like what you said, John, everything is still undecided, God knows what the final result will be." Angela shook her head with a smile, and then another voice interjected: "Indeed, it didn't end at the end. Don't know what the result will be. So, it's not impossible for me to beat you, right?"
"It sounds like you can't wait to show me some color, Peter?" Angela smiled and looked at Peter Jackson who came to her, still the same, with beard, wide glasses and disheveled hair.
"I'm just telling the truth, the one with the highest voice will not necessarily win the award, and many times the film behind it is the real winner." Peter made no secret of his pride.
No wonder he was so excited. The release of the first film of "The Lord of the Rings" not only won him the love of 90% of book fans, but the vast majority of film critics also praised the film. And now it has won 12 Oscar nominations. Although it did not break the record of "Titanic", it is still an amazing achievement.
It is said that there was originally a nomination for the best song, but for some reason or someone's reason, there is no best song on the final nomination list, otherwise the nomination of the first "The Lord of the Rings" should be 13 nominations. Even so, Peter is still proud of himself, so how could he be unhappy
And although from the day the Oscar nominations were announced, Brokeback Mountain's winning call and rumors were far ahead of several other films. Even a strong opposition from conservative groups will not change this fact. But the first movie of "The Lord of the Rings" always followed closely behind, leaving several other movies far behind, so Peter stood in front of Angela so proudly - from this point of view, Peter Fatty is actually very strong. of macho tendencies.
"I have to remind you, Peter, that "The Lord of the Rings" won the best film and you won the best director is different." Although the proud Peter is not annoying, Angela still stabbed him.
Peter was stunned, but then he waved his hand in disapproval: "Then just wait and see."
Angela shook her head with a smile, and did not argue with him too much. Seeing that Nicole had already left and entered the theater, she said goodbye to John and the others, and walked inside with Kate and Rachel.
"I have a hunch, you will win the best actress, Kate." Angela said with a vow as she walked.
"It's okay, it's good to be nominated." Kate said softly with a smile, although her tone was flat, Angela could still understand her unspoken affection. It's a pity that this is a public place, and there is Rachel next to him, so I can only give Kate a smile.
Then, the girl suddenly noticed something and glanced at Rachel. The latter then lowered his eyelids and pursed his lips, as if he had done nothing. Angela couldn't help frowning. She suddenly felt that this feeling was a little familiar, but she couldn't think of why it was familiar no matter what. This year, because of Kate's cold war with herself, I didn't meet Rachel very much. Could it be earlier... Could it be! Angela suddenly trembled slightly, and then shook her head in her heart.
No, it's not like that, and isn't it an understanding? I must be thinking too much, because the things to prepare for after graduation have become a little suspicious. Angela comforted herself in her heart.
"It's still on time, I'll be out to find you after a few more minutes." Mavis' voice rang at this time, and the female detective waited behind the theater's gate as early as usual. The only difference is that her long golden-brown head is tucked behind her head, revealing a white and slender gooseneck, wearing a dark purple evening dress with slits and thin shoulders, and a pair of slender and beautiful legs. Bi Lu, coupled with the temperament of a strong woman, is not lost to any female star present.
"Hey, I remember that in the original arrangement, the time given was flexible." Angela said dissatisfiedly.
Mavis did not have an interface. After saying hello to Kate and Rachel, she pointed to Angela and made a circle around it, then walked straight inside.
"Why is your female bodyguard always like this?" Kate suddenly asked. She frowned slightly as she watched Mavis' leaving figure, pinching her fingers, not knowing what she was thinking.
"What's always like this?" Angela asked inexplicably.
"Don't you think she's a bit arrogant?" Kate's teeth brushed lightly on her lips.
"Defiant? Of course not, she's just used to it." Angela explained, and then her face became weird. A few seconds later, she sighed inwardly with a wry smile, and then whispered, "Mavis is actually an FBI agent, and she was sent here to protect me personally."
"FBI? Personal protection?" The two voices rang at the same time, both Kate and Rachel were surprised, because Angela had always claimed that Mavis was her personal bodyguard.
"Angie, what's going on?" Kate couldn't help asking.
"Well, this is a long story," Angela looked at the crowd in twos and threes. "Let's go first, and we'll talk about it after the awards ceremony is over. Don't worry, it's no big deal."
"Don't worry? Why don't you worry!" Kate glanced around angrily and lowered her voice, "You kept it secret for so long! Why couldn't you tell me directly in the first place?"
"Because it's their request. Well, Kate, let's talk about this after the awards ceremony. Anyway, no big deal - think, when did Maeves show up with me?" Angela said comfortingly. , and then walked into the venue first. The girl still didn't forget to glance at Rachel, why did she cry out when she didn't say a few words to herself
The seats in the theater were two-thirds full, and the crew of Brokeback Mountain was placed in the third and fourth rows, surrounded by the crew of The Devil and The Lord of the Rings, just like before. related to her.
"Hey guys, how did it feel to walk the red carpet for the first time?" Angela smiled and joined Jack Gyllenhaal, Heath Ledger and Michelle William who had already come in after taking her seat. Mess and others say hello.
"Not bad, I finally understand why everyone likes to attend the awards ceremony."
"It's like a big party, it's better if no one asks you that question."
Both Ledger and Gyllenhill were quite relaxed, and obviously they also realized that their chances of winning the award were very slim, so they didn't care much. Besides, it is already quite an outstanding achievement to be nominated, and it is precisely because of this nomination that Gyllen Hill is reunited with his family. But on the red carpet, he was caught by reporters and asked a lot of embarrassing questions. And Ledger escaped because his relationship with Michelle was quickly exposed, and he showed off his love on the red carpet.
As for the other two, Sarah and Mina, they kept whispering. Although as long as Angela's eyes swept over, he immediately sat upright as if nothing happened to each other, but it was obvious that they were back to good. So Angela also pretended not to see their behavior.
"So far. Everything is normal. I hope this normality can be maintained until the end of the ceremony." Mavis, who had entered the theater early, sat next to Angela at this time.
"I don't think there will be anything abnormal. You must know that you and your colleagues are not the only ones responsible for the security here." Angela shrugged disapprovingly. If she was worried when Ellen and Mavis came to the door at first, now more than a year later, she has completely ignored it.
"Then, your sister often looks at me with strange eyes, is it abnormal?" Maeves turned her head and said in a leisurely manner, while pointing to a seat in the row behind Angela with her thumb.
"Sister?" The girl was stunned for a while, turned her head to look at it before she realized it, and then laughed embarrassingly: "I think it's because I told her your identity, so..."
Angela glanced at Maeves with a guilty conscience. She originally thought that she would have a good discussion with herself about the rule of "not revealing the identity of an agent to anyone other than her family", but she didn't expect that she would only say " That's right." Then he stopped talking.
Some inexplicably scratched her head, Angela turned her head again to look at Kate not far away. The other party just happened to look over at this time, and the four eyes were smiling slightly. Just when Kate lowered her head, Angela was stunned, because Liv, who was sitting two rows behind Kate by four seats, was staring at herself with a complicated look.
After realizing that Angela noticed her, Liv turned her head away and didn't come back. Angela didn't look at it too much, but when she sat in the seat and stared at the stage where there was no one, the feeling in her heart was indescribable.
With the passage of time, the awards ceremony is finally about to begin. First, Tom Cruise came out and gave the opening speech. I don't know what Nicole's expression is. It is said that they have hardly communicated after the divorce. memory.
Then, as the music played, the embarrassing host suddenly appeared on stage, Whoopi Goldberg, it was her again! Angela still remembers the hosting style of the Ubinare people at the 71st session. I changed 7 or 8 sets of clothes in one night, and one set was weirder than the other. If anyone knew what "rare people" meant, they would definitely agree with Angela's statement.
She still hasn't changed her hosting style, she just descended from the theater in Nicole's golden feather suit from "Moulin Rouge", and sang the song from "Moulin Rouge" to the bottom. At the same time, she was scratching her head, and Nicole, who was sitting not far below, couldn't help laughing. To be honest, if Nicole was wearing this dress, it would definitely be considered glamorous and sexy, but it must be replaced by Whoopi... Well, it's like a big turkey swinging.
Fortunately, at least Whoopi didn't lose her humor. After getting off the cable, she said "Be careful, please don't break the feathers" and swayed to the stage, and then said, "Please don't stare at me, I'm just here to tease you. Happy" immediately made the whole theater burst into laughter.
It's okay, it's just a few hours. Angela said to Zigong comfortingly. Also, Whoopi's hilarious talent is not bad, just think of it as a party—Oscar is a flamboyant party.
The first award is still the best supporting actor, and the presenter is naturally Kate, the winner of last year's best supporting actress. Speaking of which, Sir Ian McKellen's Best Supporting Actor nomination should be the only acting nomination in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Of course, getting it is basically impossible.
As Angela "expected", Jim Broadbent of the biographical film "The Long Road Will End" won the golden statuette, and the next award is naturally the best supporting actress.
Although this is the second time Angela has been nominated for Best Supporting Actress, and she was nominated for a role after a few years of no work, she didn't take it too seriously. Frankly speaking, she prefers... Rachel to win this award - the other four nominations are Helen Miller and "Professor McGonagall" Maggie Smith, who were nominated for "Gosford Park" at the same time, and "No." Marisa Tomei, nominated for "London Love" and Rachel Weisz, nominated for "The Long Road Will End."
It's hard to explain why I have this idea, but it suddenly popped up when I was thinking about who might get the best supporting actress. Angela twitched her lips, well, I'm not familiar with Marisa Tomei, but Helen Miller and Professor McGonagall's acting skills are both pretty good, so it's not like Rachel wants to win Best Supporting Actress. an easy task.
It can be seen from this that Angela did not take her nomination seriously, so when Benicio read her name on the stage, the girl was stunned for several seconds before she reacted. Of course, her dazed appearance was also recorded by the camera, and many people later joked that she was "obviously shocked".
Whether shocked or unprepared, Angela took a deep breath and walked onto the stage with a smile.
"Congratulations, Miss Angela." Benicio smiled and handed the little golden man to her, then humbly stepped aside. The dude who claims to be able to have scandals as long as he touches women is well behaved at the moment.
Angela smiled politely, and just as she was about to speak to the audience, she suddenly didn't know what to say. In the dozens of seconds she walked up from below, she could almost guess what it meant for her to win this best supporting actress.
"Well, as usual, I should thank all of them once." Angela with a charming smile finally spoke up, and she deliberately spent a few hours putting on makeup to make her look so beautiful at the moment. No one can look away.
"However, since this is a waste of time, I think it's better to read it in the form of a list. The list of thanks is as follows: father, mother, judges, my economic man Sparrow... " Angela used extremely serious He continued to read the expression on his face, and at the same time he put the little golden man on the stage and lifted his fingers to keep counting, and the theater burst into laughter.
She seriously read all the crew members she could remember before she stopped, and even then it took two or three minutes: "Well, there are still many people who I can't remember all of a sudden, I'm sorry. If I wait a while. If my son can come on stage again. I'll try to remember."
There was another burst of laughter.
"I have said so many names I want to thank, but I only emphasize one thing. It is because of their help and cooperation in all aspects that I won the Golden Man of Best Supporting Actress again almost ten years later. , thank them!" Speaking of this, Angela on the stage raised the golden figure and bowed slightly towards the venue, and the warm applause suddenly sounded.
"Nice speech, congratulations for winning the Best Supporting Actress." After Angela returned to her seat, Maeves said while clapping her hands, and then she raised her eyebrows: "It seems that you are not very happy. ?"
"Where do you see that I'm not happy?" Angela, who maintained a smile, retorted in a low voice as she greeted the people around her who congratulated her.
"From the corners of your mouth that are cramping." Maeves' tone was light, but full of teasing.
Covertly gave her a roll of eyes, and Angela stopped talking. Of course, Mavis was right, she was really reluctant to take it. In addition to the previous inexplicable hope that Rachel will win the best supporting actress, there is also what it means to win this award. Think about it, although her performance is very good, she has not reached the point where she can throw a few streets away from others. And she hadn't acted in a role for several years, and she was nominated and won as soon as she had a work... What does that mean
