Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    At 5 a.m. local time in Los Angeles on Tuesday, January 1, the sky was still dark, but because of the Oscar nomination announcement ceremony, countless filmmakers, media and fans were waiting in front of the TV to watch the ABC channel. This is the final stop of the awards season.  .

    The popular Ye Wei may not be watching, but there are countless relatives, friends, and colleagues who are ready to inform him of the good news.

    Jennifer, who is at home, and Alicia, who is a guest, are one of them. They still remember the opening of the viy talent show interview on January 21 last year. One year has passed, and they have all had a magical year.  Will a movie that went from unknown to Oscar nominee continue to be magical today?

    Liz is also watching TV at home. In high school, she was inexplicably nominated for the Oscar for Best Actress. Will Susie's dream come true here?

    With everyone¡¯s attention, the ceremony begins!

    The two hosts are Hillary Swank and Jake Gyllenhaal. They stood behind the glass podium with smiles, each holding a result sheet in their hands.

    Swank, who was wearing a black semi-formal jumpsuit, smiled and said: "Good morning everyone, I am Hilary Swank. It is my honor to host the Academy Award nomination ceremony for you today. I will talk to this handsome gentleman  Jake Gyllenhaal read out the nomination list together. Gyllenhaal in the gray suit on the right said with a smile: "Good morning, everyone."

    "This year, as usual, there are many outstanding films and filmmakers. I wish you all the best to be nominated, although that is impossible." Swank said.

    "But you all get an opportunity to get up early, please make it a habit and make our set less complaining." Gyllenhaal said.

    The humor of the two made the audience refreshed with chuckles. Swank added: "Jack, we are not good at telling jokes, and the publicist didn't write any good jokes for us, so why don't we just announce it?" Her words made  Gia, who was also watching, laughed.  Gyllenhaal nodded and said: "That's best, but before that I want to tell you that the new movie "Street Diary" starring Hillary has just been released and it's very good. Now let's take a look at the nomination list."

    This is a blatant product placement. "Street Diary" is a Paramount film. This also shows the financial resources Paramount invested in the Oscars this year.

    ¡°The nominees are in no particular order,¡± Swank said.

    The nomination ceremony should be as interesting as the award ceremony. Naturally, one or two main creative awards should be announced at the beginning, namely Best Supporting Actor/Actress.  With all the attention of the audience, Gyllenhaal, who was nominated for a supporting actor in "Brokeback Mountain" last year, announced: "The nominees for best supporting actor are

    Jackie Earle Haley¡ª"Being a Mother"

    John Harkes - "Winter's Bone"

    Eddie Murphy - "Dreamgirls"

    Stanley Tucci¡ª"The Lovely Bones"

    Mark Wahlberg ¨C ¡°The Departed¡±

    With his words, the nominees¡¯ heads appeared on the large LED screen at the back in five grids.  Both bones are shortlisted!  Supporters were jubilant.

    Gyllenhaal smiled and said: "Congratulations to these five gentlemen, they are all nominated for the first time. I have a piece of advice from those who have experienced it." Swank looked at him, and he added: "When you watch others win the award,  , boys, don¡¯t cry.¡± The funny thing about this is that Boy¡¯s-don-t-Cry is Swank¡¯s film, and the four nominees are all movies starring women.

    "They are all old actors. It is precisely because of these golden supporting actors who have silently contributed over the years that the leading actors can gain fame and reputation." Swank said with a smile, looking at the list paper on the glass table, and read: "Who are the girls?  ? Nominated for Best Supporting Actress

    Cate Blanchett - "Scandal"

    Jennifer Hudson¡ª"Dreamgirls"

    Rinko Kikuchi¡ª"Tower of Babel"

    Saoirse Ronan - "The Lovely Bones"

    Alicia Vikander - "Winter's Bone"

    Once again!  !  Bones fans are shouting happiness, is the battle between Bones a happy ending?

    Two future girls join hands to enter the Oscar hall!  Ronan, who is over 12 years old, is the seventh youngest nominee for this award. Vikander, who is over 18 years old, is still far from the top ten (14 years old), but he is still very young.  This moment has gone down in Oscar history.

    "Ah!!!" Jennifer hugged Alicia excitedly, and everyone in the living room screamed in joy. Alicia had a silly smile on her face and looked like her mother was about to faint.

    Swank on the TV screen was also very happy: "Except for Blanchett, an old acquaintance, the other four girls have been nominated for the first time. Congratulations to you." Gyllenhaal added: "Two famous movies are really eye-catching.  "Swank said: "Yes, they are directed by the same person" She looked at the manuscript andHe looked at his partner with confusion, as if confirming something again and again: "A young football player."

    It is a tacit understanding all over the world to make jokes about Ye Wei going to Manchester United for a trial.

    Media reporters know that this is really amazing. Last year, Ye Wei made 9-year-old Abigail Breslin the youngest Best Supporting Actress nominee with LMS. This year, she is really a star-making machine for young girls.

    But the public relations staff are quietly nervous. Sometimes the popular opener is pushed to the supporting actor award, and double nominations for male and female supporting actors are almost certain to be nominated for single female lead, or even zero.

    The two hosts continued to announce the list of names in a humorous manner, reducing the dullness of the technical awards.

    Girls Trilogy is not represented in several awards such as Best Art Direction and Best Editing. Their performance in these aspects is not as good as that of blockbusters, and there is nothing to gain in the frontline battle.  "Poseidon"!  This big-budget, big-money movie that capsized was shortlisted for Best Visual Effects.

    Fans who like Wei Mi can¡¯t help but wonder, will Ye Wei and Amy Rossum meet at the Oscars and be in the same frame?

    Can Ye Wei go to the Oscars?  Finally it¡¯s time for the eye-catching creative awards!  Swank announced: ¡°The nominees for Best Adapted Screenplay are

    "Borat" - Sacha Baron Cohen, Peter Barnham, Anthony Haynes, Dan Mazer, Todd Phillips

    "The Departed" - William Monaghan

    "The Lovely Bones" - Michael Arndt, Ye Wei

    "Scandal Chronicle" - Patrick Mabo

    "Winter's Bone" - Ye Wei"

    The secretaries took a long breath, and the check they were holding was cashed. With the enthusiastic praise from the film critics, the strong public relations behind it and its own influence, the Manchester United star received double nominations for adapted screenplays with two good movies!  After you relax, you will be in a state of excitement. This is more valuable than winning the Golden Globe Award, so much more.

    Gyllenhaal said with emotion: "Ye Wei and I went to the same middle school. Don't get me wrong, we are not classmates. He will only be 19 next month. A few years ago, I gave him an award at the school's film festival.  , his girlfriend at that time isthis one now." This little gossip aroused the laughter of Weili fans!

    ¡°Your school is full of talented people.¡± Swank said with a smile.

    ¡°It¡¯s all because the girls in school are too smart.¡± Gyllenhaal then announced the best original screenplay:

    ""Tower of Babel" - Guillermo Arriaga

    "Letter from Iwo Jima" - Alice Yamashita, Paul Haggis

    "Half Nelson" - Anna Burton, Ryan Fleck

    "Pan's Labyrinth" - Guillermo del Toro

    "The Queen"¡ªPete Morgan"

    "Half Nelson" is shortlisted!  Now no one will laugh at Ye Wei's deal. This year's Sundance Film Festival is being held, and film producers hope to hire Ye Wei as a consultant to purchase films with him, or compete with him for any films he likes.  But¡­¡­

    The two hosts announced some technical awards one after another, and the secretaries were surprised. "The Lovely Bones" won the best photography!  This is the first time that cinematographer Sean Maurer has been nominated for an Oscar. He has been following Ye Weihun since "Wedding Day". This time it is really gratifying.

    The Best Foreign Language Film and Best Animated Feature Film are all attracting attention, and the Best Original Song!  "Soul Surfer" Katy Perry's faith-won-t-fail was nominated for the Golden Globe and also entered the Oscar. Later, ss and tlb were jointly ranked for the best original score!  Jenn Kezmelik's nomination was a real success, and Mike Giacchino was an upset, but many media have already been optimistic about him, because ss's soundtrack is majestic, sincere and moving, and can be said to be the work of a master.

    "Hahaha!" This really made Emma and other surfers happy. They didn't expect to get two Oscar nominations like this!  !  !  Although there should have been more.

    After the technical awards were announced one by one, each of the remaining four awards was a cadenza.  The first thing to do is the Best Actress. In just a short while, the winners and losers of the entire year and the entire award season will be revealed. How many of the TV viewers are so nervous that they hold their breath?

    "The nominees for Best Actress are" Gyllenhaal read out with a smile:

    Penelope Cruz¡ª"The Return"

    Jennifer Lawrence - "Winter's Bone"

    Helen Mirren - "The Queen"

    Meryl Streep - "The Devil Wears Prada"

    "Kate Winslet - "Motherhood""

    A buzzing sound!  Jennifer suddenly couldn't hear the sound, but she could definitely see the surrounding family members, Esther and her mother shouting and celebrating like they were all crazy.  She was 16 years and 5 months old, her first movie acting, first camera performance

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?Sitting on the sofa unable to get up, Ye Wei's "You will get an Oscar" echoed in my heart. Life is not bad.

    Sensation!  !  !  The eyes of the media and movie fans are once again dazzled by this continued dazzling star, Jennifer Lawrence!

    The second youngest Oscar nominee for Best Actress in history, although the first "Whale Rider" Keisha Castle-Hughes (in 2003, 13 years and 309 days old when she was nominated, 11 years old when she performed,  First performance), although there is the youngest Oscar-winning actress Marie-Matlin ("The Miserable God's Daughter", 1986, 21 years and 218 days old, deaf-mute actor, first time acting in a movie, now 41 years old)  , but still so shocking!

    She is the first Oscar nominee born in collaboration with Ye Wei, and the first future girl to win this honor. Whether it is her true performance or something else, JL has a bright future!  All the previous doubts and slanders about her and Ye Wei became even more ridiculous in the hymns sung by the media.

    Viy said that this girl is an acting genius, and people finally know it.

    Three of the ten winners of the draft are heading towards Oscars.  Elizabeth Olsen unfortunately lost.  Fans of "Susie" feel pity for her, but five spots are five spots, and there is no loser in this battle between two-part actresses.

    In front of the TV, Liz was chewing a mouthful of potato chips, frowning slightly, saying she wasn¡¯t disappointed or sad would be a lie, how could she not be

    Not only that, but she also suddenly felt like a failure. The past year had been so wonderful, but there was no Hollywood ending for her.  Without an Oscar nomination, without Ye Wei, she had already understood her own feelings and regretted that she didn't make the effort to pursue that guy. What did she lose?  I really don¡¯t know.

    "I lost the election, I lost the election, you just have to figure it out." Liz sent a text message to Ye Wei, unable to bring herself to read the consoling text messages she had received from many people.

    After a while, she was a little surprised to receive Ye Wei's reply: "Doesn't this make you even more special?"

    "Haha." She couldn't help but be amused. Thinking about it, it was so boring to swarm Oscar. She replied to him: "Thank you."

    The two hosts on the screen have announced the nominations for Best Actor, and the white horse and the dark horse came out without any suspense:

    "Leonardo DiCaprio - "Blood Diamond"

    Ryan Gosling - "Half Nelson"

    Peter O'Toole - "The End of Cupid"

    Will Smith - "The Pursuit of Happiness"

    "Forest Whitaker-"The Last Dictator""

    ? Next up is the Best Director category. There is also not much suspense. It almost all depends on Ye Wei. Will he be nominated?  Double nomination?  Which movie will be nominated alone?

    Because there are many respected elderly people, Gyllenhaal solemnly declared: "

    Alejandro Gonzalez I?¨¢rritu¡ª"Tower of Babel"

    Clint Eastwood - "Letter from Iwo Jima"

    Stephen Frears - "The Queen"

    Martin Scorsese - "The Departed"

    Ye Wei - "Lovely Bones"

    The list of the same track is released!  Exactly in line with the situation of the awards season and the predictions of the media, Ye Wei, who is about to turn 19, has been selected for two consecutive years.

    "Ah wow wow!" Lily raised her hands and cheered crazily, throwing her head back and laughing with her mouth open. She just wanted to express the joy in her heart, but she made herself unhappy.  Ignoring her mother's gaze, she quickly called him on her cell phone. She knew that the afternoon tactics class had not yet come, so she could call him.

    The call was quickly connected. She looked at the TV and said with a smile: "My lord, you have been nominated for director!"

    "My queenthat's all?" His voice sounded like he hadn't woken up. "I slept well. It was only 5 o'clock in the morning. I dreamed that I was on trial training at Manchester United, and you woke me up just like that."

    "I'm anxious, I'm not good." Lily was just saying that when she suddenly couldn't help but shouted excitedly: "Winter's Bone has been nominated for Best Picture! Oh, that's great"

    It was Hilary Swank who announced the nominations for this award:

    ""Tower of Babel"

    "The Infernal Walker"

    "Letter from Iwo Jima"

    "Queen"

    "Winter's Bone"
