The 71st Golden Globe Awards came to a lively and bustling end
Renly Hall returned empty-handed again.
Before the ceremony was officially held, Renly's chances of winning were very, very slim, and almost no one believed that he could win the award; but Renly appeared on the red carpet all the time, and all kinds of speculations came out, because So far, Renly has not won a Golden Globe trophy, and this year, Renly attended the ceremony dinner for the first time. Does this mean that the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has finally decided to honor Renly
This is a reasonable guess.
First of all, this is the Golden Globe Awards. Entertainment comes first, especially the awards in the musical comedy department. They are often chosen not based on absolute strength but more on star popularity, and have little impact on the trend of the awards season; secondly, Theo Jinma It took a lot of effort to invite Renly to attend, and it is bound to hope to develop this friendly contact into a friendly relationship; again, Renly chose to appear at the Hilton Hotel at the last moment. Obviously, it should not be just for the appearance. Just showing up.
Finally, "Gravity" and "Drunken Country Ballads" are absolutely worthy of recognition. Since the Oscars and the Screen Actors Guild Awards are likely to fail to face up to Renly's contributions, then the Golden Globes are not bad. Maybe this will arouse dissatisfaction among people in the Hollywood industry, but the Golden Globes are causing them dissatisfaction every year, and they don't care about one more time; on the contrary, this may get a lot of praise and warm praise from the audience, and it is definitely a good deal. .
From a theoretical point of view, a public relations point of view, a conventional point of view, all aspects of analysis, Renly won his first Golden Globe trophy seems to be a high probability event, but... The ending is once again surprising.
For Best Actor in a Drama Series, Renly lost to Matthew McConaughey of Dallas Buyers Club.
For best actor in a musical or comedy, Renly lost to Leonardo DiCaprio of The Wolf of Wall Street.
This…
How should this be interpreted
Objectively speaking, losing to Matthew in the plot department is not a shock. Matthew has always been one of several actors who have been hotly discussed throughout the awards season this year. The excellent performance of "Dallas Buyers Club" completely subverted The idol label of previous years; but is it really the best choice? This is just Matthew's first Golden Globe nomination, but the Hollywood Foreign Press Association still chose to award Matthew over Renly.
Likewise, the musical comedy division lost to Leonardo, which is a baffling choice. "Nebraska"'s Bruce Dern, "American Hustle"'s Christian Bale, "Her"'s Joaquin Phoenix are all better choices, not to mention "Drunken Country Ballad"'s Renly The frontrunner in the division is the absolute leader. If the Golden Globes are going to create a conversation, then Renly is undoubtedly a more correct choice.
But the Hollywood Foreign Press Association chose Leonardo. After "The Aviator" in 2004, Leonardo won a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor again after a lapse of nine years. This is not the expected result. The whole award During the season, "The Wolf of Wall Street" was full of controversy, struggling to move forward amid the scepticism and crusade, and Leonardo's performance was even more criticized. It was generally considered "slightly overdone".
"Ultimate Chaos"
Obviously, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association still believes that Leonardo has a higher chance in the awards season than Renly, and at the same time, Leonardo is more topical and controversial than Renly.
It is neither reasonable nor unexpected, but it is definitely a result that makes people laugh and cry.
Imagine Renly, who achieved the youngest egot in film history, Renly, who is in full swing at the three major European film festivals, and Renly, who has swept away big and small awards to the point of being soft-hearted, but was stuck on the Golden Globe Award. What is this? thing
Imagine again that Renly, who stood at the top of the Hollywood pyramid, reappeared on the stage of the Golden Globes after three years. It is definitely a lot of attention, but the result is completely reduced to a foil and nothing. What is going on
This year, with the two works of "Gravity" and "Drunken Country Ballad", Renly has achieved a full-scale explosion. The momentum of winning the award even surpassed the glory when he won the Oscar. If he misses this year, will he still have a chance in the future? What about winning the Ballon d'Or? Even the musical comedy awards have been missed, so is there a chance to complete the acting grand slam in the future
Is this a Renly regret, or a Golden Globes joke
If you put it in previous years, it is estimated that the Golden Globe Awards have long been ridiculed to death by the crowd. The list of winners of the Golden Globe Awards every year seems to have become a fixed item; but this year's situation is particularly special, and it is common in the industry and outside the industry. Cool down Renly.
Even Don Quixotes have expressed that Renly is still young and the actor's career is still very long, he can have more possibilities, and there is no need to rush. Every work now will establish Renly's status as a hall-level actor, and what fans are looking forward to is not a momentary gain or loss, but the glory and glory that will go down in history: because Renly deserves it.
It is against this background that the Golden Globes once again ignored Renly, who returned to the awards ceremony after a long absence, and it seems that people cannot justly accuse the Hollywood Foreign Press Association of making another stupid move; conversely, it seems that people cannot. Gleefully praised the Ballon d'Or result for heralding the direction of this year's awards season.
This is really a bit... can not laugh or cry.
Only a few people know that Renly's attendance was never for a Golden Globe trophy, but to complete an important step in the layout of the entire chessboard. The turbulent undercurrent of the recent period is methodically weaving a net of heaven and earth, brewing A storm that could change the competitive landscape of the six major studios.
Although the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has been repeatedly criticized for being too utilitarian, and although the Golden Globe Awards have repeatedly been criticized for being too entertaining, at this moment, compared to the Oscars, the Hilton Hotel has just become the best place for Renly to launch his plan. , and then the Oscar night held by "Vanity Fair" will also be the place to promote the next plan.
As for the Ballon d'Or trophy? This event is originally a gala. Enjoy, relax, and wander. This is the right way to open it.
But for most people, "starting with a high profile and ending with a low profile" has become the best portrayal of Renly's second Golden Globe trip in his career, and finally ended in a subtle and confusing way. To a certain extent, it can be seen as a rare bump and bump in Renly's smooth development path in the past few years.
"Entertainment Weekly" magazine even called the Golden Globe Award "the lunar surface that has not been covered by Renly-Hall's footsteps for the time being", giving the Golden Globe Award a rare positive affirmation, ridiculing inside and outside. All other major awards ceremonies and film festivals can't wait to chase after Renly, only the Golden Globe is "everyone is drunk and I am alone".
It has been two years since the "Hype Gate" has passed. In the Internet society, this is two centuries. Almost everyone has forgotten about it, but for "Entertainment Weekly", it is like a scar of shame. , was severely and deeply branded on his forehead, and Renly's starlight reminded them of that history all the time, how could they be easily forgotten
Maybe Entertainment Weekly isn't too irrational to talk nonsense, but they don't mind interpreting well-known and established facts in a different light.
Right now, for example, the Ballon d'Or is getting a rare acclaim.
In fact, although "Entertainment Weekly" has shaped the Golden Globes into a unique and unyielding landscape, this praise is obviously exaggerated; but the 71st ceremony has indeed successfully regained a city, in various A delicate balance has been found in the major awards, and the chaos of the awards season has been briefly sorted out, and a preliminary glimpse of the overall competition pattern of the Oscars has been made.
In the Drama category, Best Picture went to "12 Years a Slave", Best Actor went to Matthew McConaughey of "Dallas Buyers Club", and Best Actress went to "Blue Jasmine" Kate- Blanchett.
In the Musical Comedy category, Best Picture went to "American Hustle", Best Actor went to Leonardo DiCaprio for "The Wolf of Wall Street" and Best Actress went to Amy for "American Hustle" -Adams.
In addition, the best supporting actor is Jared Leto of "Dallas Buyers Club", the best supporting actress is Jennifer Lawrence of "American Hustle", and the best director is Alfonso Ka of "Gravity" Long, the best screenplay is Spike-Jones for "Her", the best foreign language film is "The Beautiful City," and the best animated feature is "Frozen."
The above are the main winners of the Golden Globes in the film department.
It can be seen that the Golden Globe Awards are still dividing the cake and continuing the tradition. Except for "American Hustle", which won three trophies alone and stood out in the competitive landscape, the overall momentum of other works is not comparable; but This year's cake distribution is very skillful and undoubtedly won a lot of praise.
Overall, "12 Years a Slave", "American Hustle" and "Gravity" grabbed the lead in the Best Picture and Best Director battles to form the first group.
Among them, "Twelve Years a Slave" has a slight advantage in the best film thanks to its theme advantage; "Gravity"'s directing skills and regulation are unparalleled in the overall situation of this year's awards season; "American Hustle" The advantage of the group drama is still the biggest highlight, and the four major awards of male lead, female lead, male supporting and female supporting are all competitive.
As a complement, Fox Searchlight from "12 Years a Slave," Warner Bros. from "Gravity," and Sony Columbia Pictures from "American Hustle" are also the most dominant distribution companies in awards season; Ernstein Pictures' "Philomena", Focus Pictures' "Dallas Buyers Club", Sony's classic "Blue Jasmine" and "Drunken Country Ballads" all have shortcomings to varying degrees.
This also means that the three-legged situation of the first group has been formed!
