Under the guidance of the staff, Renly walked quickly to a waiting room at the end of the corridor. The interior decoration of wine red and gold is in the same vein as this year's stage design; a huge display screen is placed in front of it. , on the opposite side is a camera with a red light on.
All the details indicate why and purpose, and here is the waiting room for nominees and presenters.
Above the award ceremony, in order to avoid accidents, the award guests and nominees often wait in advance. In order to make the tidbits and improve the party, the organizing committee specially opened a waiting room to record what happened behind the stage. The tidbits, but also can deal with some unexpected situations in time.
Then there are the so-called contingencies.
The second-to-last award was for Best Actor. As the nominee and presenter, Renly is too late to return to his position at this time, so the live broadcast waiting room is the best choice. Renly can still appear on the camera gracefully and calmly, and will not be absent from the announcement of the award. crucial moment.
In fact, this year's Best Actor competition lacks enough suspense and sparks.
The five nominees are: Daniel Day-Lewis of 'Lincoln', Renly Hall of 'Transcendence', Joaquin Phoenix of 'The Master' and Bradley Library of 'The Line of Happiness' Pere, Hugh Jackman of "Les Miserables."
Jackman, the quality of the work and the thickness of the performance are not high enough, the shortlist is a surprise; Bradley, the comedy performance is still lacking convincing, the first nomination from an idol is more than a commendation; Renly, just won the award last year And very young, the overall momentum of the work is submerged in the entire awards season, far from reaching the height of the consecutive championship.
In other words, awards season is a Daniel Day-Lewis vs. Joaquin Phoenix fight from start to finish.
Interestingly, Daniel and Joaquin are both thorns. They seldom or refuse to participate in the academy's public relations. At most, they only attend ceremonially, which also weakens the power of the public relations battle to the greatest extent. All the focus is on The actor's personal strength and the overall evaluation of the work have rarely returned to the essence of the award.
In the competition of works, the momentum of "Master" is far less than that of "Lincoln"; and in the professional competition, Joaquin is also far behind Daniel.
Therefore, this year's awards ceremony has been stripped of suspense a long time ago. Everyone is waiting for Daniel Day-Lewis to climb to the top again. The whole awards season has witnessed Daniel's sweeping and unrivaled performance. Running all the way towards the golden man, once he reaches the top again this year, then Daniel will become the first actor in history to win the Oscar for best actor three times.
This is history. History without a doubt.
So, despite the lack of suspense, despite the lack of spark, the organizing committee put the best actor in the finale - before the best picture award, and even behind the two more intense awards for best director and best actress , because this will likely be Meryl Streep's moment for Daniel Day-Lewis, enough to go down in history.
Standing in the live broadcast waiting room, Ren Li's mood was also extremely calm, and even faintly excited. It is truly a wonderful thing to witness the birth of history with your own eyes.
On the stage, Meryl has completed her narration, and then introduced the nominee video playback, first Joaquin, then Bradley, then Daniel, then Jackman, and finally Blue. present.

The academy chose the last scene of "Transcendence". In a barren ruin, Henry recited Edgar Allan Poe's poems. Destroyed and full of vicissitudes, despair and pain surged up little by little. Sadness, like a mist lingering at the fingertips, the world fell into a ruin.
When the video finishes, as is customary, the camera cuts to Renly.
Renly stood there elegantly, and nodded politely to the camera, but then, an incredible applause broke out in the Dolby Theater, swept in endlessly, and even mixed with whistles And the cheers, the shouts were almost comparable to Daniel's.
Such an unexpected situation caused a hint of surprise in Renly's eyes. Obviously he didn't expect such a warm reaction, but he immediately showed a bright smile, and a gentleman nodded his head slightly, expressing his gratitude and respect. .
Confident and calm response, but with a restrained low-key, really like a spring breeze.
After that, the camera switched to Meryl again, and five split screens appeared on the big screen, broadcasting the reactions of the five candidates in real time. In anticipation, Meryl opened the envelope and pulled out After receiving the card, there was an elusive smile on his face, and it seemed to create suspense again in an instant, but it was pierced in a blink of an eye—
"The winner of the 85th Academy Award for Best Actor is... Daniel Day-Lewis, 'Lincoln.'"
History is born again.
After witnessing the youngest actor in film history last year, this year has witnessed the first actor who has been crowned three times in film history. The history of Oscar is advancing step by step.
Immediately, Renly gave warm applause and expressed his high respect!
When people mention the greatest actor in film history, the debate is bound to be endless. Everyone has their own choices, but there is no doubt that Daniel is one of them. The three Oscar winners are the best praise, although in Europe It has never reached the top of the three major film festivals, but this still does not detract from the greatness of Daniel.
Since "My Beautiful Laundry" really entered the public's attention in 1985, Daniel has appeared in a total of fourteen works, less than one work per year on average, but all of them are excellent, except for "Nine" in 2009. In addition to meeting expectations, all other works have been well received, nominated for five Oscars, and won the Golden Man for the third time tonight.
As far as Renly is concerned, the most impressive thing is always "The Blood Will Come", and the most outstanding performance is "In the Name of the Father". Actor, his low production also gives each character its own soul, which is undoubtedly awe-inspiring.
Daniel deserves the award tonight.
Obviously, Renly is not the only one who has such an idea. All the audience in the entire Dolby Theater stood up and applauded. The climax/climax of the ceremony took it to a whole new level.
No words, no whistles, no shouting, just applause, the purest, most direct and most sincere applause, revolving in a mighty manner, compared to a small golden man, the silence in this moment Applause is a more brilliant and important affirmation. This is the respect from all colleagues, which is irreplaceable and cannot be measured.
Under the hot and boiling gaze, Daniel stepped onto the stage calmly and calmly, and took his third Golden Man trophy from Meryl.
Someone once discussed whether the three major European film festivals have more important acting awards or the Oscars. The final conclusion is the latter.
reason
Not because of the review system, but because of the focus of the entire platform.
Among the three major European film festivals, any work that enters the main competition list is the result of careful selection, and each work is bound to have something worthy of recognition, and the original intention of the film festival is to bring these excellent works of art. Showing it to a wider audience, naturally, the jury's attention is more focused on the work.
It is a pity that there is only one top award, which also makes every year there are many leftovers.
In order to make up for such a miss, the director award or actor award may be awarded to other excellent works in the form of "compensation". Of course, this does not mean that the director or actor is not good enough, it just means that the jury of the film festival will stand more Judging on the overall height of the work.
Therefore, almost every year on top of the three major European film festival awards, performance awards may break out.
In the Oscars, the nomination stage has a clear division of labor. Actors can only vote in the performance department, and screenwriters can only vote in the script department. This is especially true for major awards in technical categories. This means that each department itself is from the professional field. Acknowledging, strips away the comprehensive consideration of the work itself, and selects it purely from the level of professional skills.
When entering the award voting stage, different departments can cross-vote. Even so, most actors will avoid relatively professional technical awards, so as not to pretend to understand, but make a joke.
Correspondingly, the final attribution of the four major Oscar acting awards also reflects the recognition of professional skills. Although unpopularity exists, it is still unpopular based on strength.
From another point of view, it is precisely because of this voting system that the weight of the best picture is even more prominent, which can be called the most important award in the entire Oscar.
On the whole, even though the current Oscar has become an academy public relations game, its authority is still guaranteed, especially in the individual majors, it still occupies a place in the industry, even in the acting department, more than The three major European film festivals are even heavier.
Of course, this is a matter of opinion. The acting awards at the three major European film festivals are still one of the highest in the industry.
Now, Daniel is officially crowned Oscar winner for the third time, becoming the first actor to reach such a height in the long eighty-five-year history, which makes people think of Katharine Hepburn, who has been crowned four times. Tonight, they witnessed the birth of history and became witnesses and participants of history. This feeling is really indescribable.
