The Greatest Showman - Chapter 2381
[Two thousand three hundred and forty-four historical turning points]
Neil Patrick Cullinan takes the stage.
At the same time, there is Brian Cullinan.
The magic of the opening stage, until the final stage is finally about to reveal the answer.
“After locking the box, did you keep the key under your watch?” Neil, like a competent magician, completed the established routine step by step.
“I’ve been with me all night,” Brian replied.
Neil nodded again and again, “Very good, did anyone try to take the key from you?”
“No one tried to take the key.” Brian replied with a smile.
“Very good.” Neil nodded again and again, “Did someone say you look like Matt Damon?” The
scene laughed lightly.
Brian was a little shy, and said with a red face, “I heard it a few times.”
Neil nodded proudly, “Interesting. Thank you for your help, I am very grateful.” Then, Neil walked to the glass box and began to ask again Octavia-Spencer, “Have you been staring at this box all night? Have you never taken your eyes off this briefcase? Did someone superficially tell you to say no?”
Octavia all said After denying it, Neil finally opened the box with the key, took out the briefcase, and then took out a golden envelope, “This is my prediction. Now, I’m about to announce my prediction.”
Neil returned to To the center of the stage, facing the audience, “I, Neil Patrick Harris, hereby announce the prediction that after JK’s acceptance speech, we will all call our parents instead of texting, and this happened.” Here’s what Simmons said after winning Best Supporting Actor, “I’ll deliberately miss Chiwetel Ejiofor’s name in order to tell the audience Chiwetel Ejiofor’s real name.”
“Best foreign language film came from Poland, and then the acceptance speech will be interrupted, but it will continue.” During the award speech, Meryl Streep realized that her salary was too low.” This time, the audience laughed and joked about “equal pay for men and women”.
‘Birdman’ photographer will win twice this year; John Legend and Common will get three standing ovations before winning ‘Oscar MVP’; John Travolta next year Going back to Oscar again and apologizing for touching Idina-Menzel’s cheek.” The
audience laughed!
Last year,
John Travolta returned to the Oscars this year because he mispronounced Idina Menzel’s name. It also ran through the audience, and now it was taken out by Neil and ridiculed.
“The ‘Birdman’ writer will thank his dog; ‘Blacking Drummer’ will win Best Adapted Screenplay, Damien Chazelle will thank Renly and call on everyone to hold on to their dreams; Inaritu will fly back home, Renly and Julianne will be the best actor and the best actor. Above, this is my Oscar prediction.”
Not magic, but jokes, alternative forms of teasing.
Although Neil’s prediction was very interesting, Renly, who was standing in the backstage waiting room, shook his head slightly. Neil worked very hard tonight and has been trying to innovate. Unfortunately, the overall burden is still a little weaker, even if it is hidden at the end The big move did not achieve the expected effect.
Sure enough, the Oscar host is the real hot potato.
“Next, the Best Picture Award is about to be awarded. Let’s invite the two-time Oscar winner, Sean Penn.”
Amidst the warm applause of the audience, Sean Penn appeared, and the last award will be awarded tonight, although the suspense It is not as exciting as the best actor, but the accident of the best actor has added more possibilities to the attribution of the best picture, which has become the most noteworthy moment in the audience.
“Ultimately, the awards ceremony still needs to go back to the film itself.” Sean said, standing in front of the microphone, “No matter how much they cost or how much box office they make, this award only focuses on their storytelling and their own philosophy. The interpretation of . Although only one of the nominated works can win the crown, these films will be passed on forever because they can resonate with the audience. Below is the list of nominations for the best picture.”
“Birdman”, “Teenage The Times, The Bursting Drummer, The Grand Budapest Hotel, American Sniper, The Imitation Game, The Selma Parade, and The Theory of Everything.
A total of eight works.
From a theoretical point of view, all eight works still have opportunities, including “Selma Parade”, all the crew members could not help holding their breath, looking forward to the miracle; but all eyes still fell on “Birdman” ” and the members of the “Boom Drummer” crew, as well as “Boyhood.”
Unexpected but reasonable, “Boom Drummer” won the biggest applause and cheers from the audience. It seems that everyone is looking forward to the birth of a miracle.
Then, the drum beats.
Sean Pan opened the envelope in his hand, and under the scorching gaze of the audience, he took out the red card. An unpredictable expression appeared on his face, he raised his brow slightly, and the wrinkles were squeezed. Come out, is this joy or confusion, or is it a surprise?
In just half a second, the thoughts of the audience have been rolling back and forth several times, and the three crew members who are the focus center have been tossing and burning on the fire several times. The anxiety continued to rise, and it was almost breathless.
Sean even pursed the corners of his mouth and nodded his head lightly. His meaningful eyes had a light that only he could understand. He raised his head and swept the audience, and then… he was in a daze, this… …What exactly is going on?
All the guests were about to faint, but Sean was using silence to create suspense.
“Ha ha.”
Laughter broke out in the last row, but those who were closely related to the best picture froze in place: Is it a shocking upset?
For example, the “Selma Parade” upset win?
This time, even the hopeless crew revived, and all of them cast their gazes towards Sean eagerly and nervously.
However, Sean slowly looked down at the card in his hand again, and even zoomed it out on purpose, as if he couldn’t see clearly because of his presbyopia. From one second to three seconds, the drumbeat of the live symphony band was almost on the verge of. Breathe out, and then Sean finally speaks.
“Which bastard gave the green light to this work?” Sean said with a foul language, a real foul language. He used words starting with “B”. The audience was stunned, and he didn’t have time to think about this sentence. Meaning, Sean immediately announced the answer, “‘Breaking Drummer’.”
Pause.
explode.
Ahhh!
Ahhh!
Ahhh!
The audience exploded in the true sense, all the guests were stunned, stared at each other in disbelief, and even began to doubt their own ears.
The “Crackling Drummers” crew has gone crazy, all standing up, jumping in the corner of the Dolby Theater, hugging each other in tears of joy, they won, they really won!
This work with an investment cost of only three million dollars has really topped the Oscars!
Damien Chazelle tried to stand up, but the soles of his feet softened and he almost knelt down, then he broke down and cried uncontrollably; Simmons hugged Damien for the first time , tried to comfort Damien, but he couldn’t hold back his emotions, and his eyes became wet.
Only Damien himself can know the despair: he once stood on the edge of a cliff, he once believed that he was too cute to have a career, he once was in the endless darkness, and his girlfriend’s relationship The quarrel, the disagreement with the family, and the collision with reality left him bruised and bruised, and he even had a feeling of “let it go”, but all this has changed.
Because of the man named Renly Hall.
Damien just sat there, covered his face with his hands, and cried bitterly. The uncontrollable burst of the embankment made the bystanders feel sad.
Jack also hurried forward, hugged Damien, patted his back lightly, and kept repeating, “This is the reward you deserve, this is the reward you deserve.”
The entire Dolby Theater All have fallen into madness: a miracle is born!
In 2013, “12 Years a Slave” beat “Gravity”; in 2011, “The Artist” beat “Hugo”; in 2010, “The King’s Speech” beat “The Social Network”; Millionaire” beat “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button”; “Crash” beat “Brokeback Mountain” in 2005.
Similar stories, played out over and over again, are a constant reminder that this is Oscar, who is dominated by a group of white men whose average age is over sixty, conservative, traditional, old, narcissistic, proud, This is their label, they never change, because they refuse to change, and then, time and time again, they miss the opportunity to make history, let those classic works be rejected by the statuettes, and wait for the passage of time to make those works again Blooming charming light, precipitation as a classic of film history.
“Citizen Kane”, “Sunset Boulevard”, “Dr. Strangelove”, “Taxi Driver”, “Chinatown”, “A Clockwork Orange”, “The Elephant Man”, “Apocalypse Now”, “2001: A Space Odyssey”, “Vulgar”, “Goodfellas”, “Saving Private Ryan”, “Brokeback Mountain”, “The Social Network”…
