Since Sid Gaines joined the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences! The Oscars have undergone earth-shaking changes, hiding the business coat in the awards ceremony itself, and the awards are returning to the works. This decision has also made a decisive change in the trend of the entire North American market. Although the rise of independent films and the decline of large film companies have made large film companies complain, it is undeniable that in 2007 and 2008, the North American box office reached new highs for two consecutive years, and 2008 became a year of excellent works. Years, in every way, the movie market is on a whole new track, which is much, much better than the music market.
It is precisely because the Oscars have changed one after another. Looking back at the awards ceremonies in the past few years, chaos seems to be the main theme of the vocabulary. The seventy-eighth Oscar "Brokeback Mountain" disrupted the unspoken rules of the entire North American film market. The big melee of works such as "The Departed" and "Babel Tower" at the Oscars. The 80th Oscar is a head-to-head confrontation between "No Country for Old Men" and "The Blood Is Coming". The situation is even known as the worst in a decade. It can be seen that the chaos of the entire awards season is inevitable, and what's more, after the Oscars, the chaos has not been substantially improved.
After the 80th Oscars ended, people thought that after the main theme of "work comes first" was finalized, this awards season would return to its original order. The chaotic labor unions and actors' unions, coupled with the financial crisis in the second half of the year, made the 2008 awards season a chaotic situation.
At the same time, in 2008, there were many excellent works and strong players, which made the chaotic situation reach a peak. To everyone's surprise, the 2008 awards season, led by the 81st Oscars, surpassed the 79th Oscars. Even the turbulent times like the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period are not enough to describe the tragedies of this awards season.
The 2008 awards season kicked off from the Gotham Awards in November, and ended with the 66th Golden Globe Awards on January 11, 2009.
On the 66th Golden Globe Awards, "Slumdog Millionaire" won the best drama film, "Juno" won the best musical comedy film, and the best director was won by Danny Ball. . Mickey Rourke relied on the outstanding performance of "The Wrestler" to win the best actor in the drama category, the best actor in the musical comedy category was won by Colin Farrell of "The Killer Has No Vacation", and the best supporting actor was the "Tropic Thunder" actor. Robert Downey won; Anne Hathaway won the drama queen for "Rachel's Wedding" and Sally Hawkins for "Careless" was the best actress in a musical drama. Supporting actress Kate Winslet of "Life and Death". In addition, "Juno" also won two awards for Best Screenplay and Best Score.
In this list, Danny Ball defeated Evan Bell to win the best director, which attracted countless attention; Mickey Rourke defeated Sean Pan of "Milk", and Evan of "The Dark Knight". Wen - Bell won the best actor and became the biggest unpopular; Anne Hathaway won the best actress crown for the first time in her acting career and became the biggest bright spot.
It is worth mentioning here that the reason why the 2008 awards season has been so chaotic as never before is because it started with the best picture, the best director, the best actor, the best actress, the best adapted screenplay, the best Original script, the level of competition is unprecedented, and this is the only situation.
At the last moment, Warner Bros. signed Centipede Wenyi Bell for the best actor for his performance in "The Dark Knight", which not only disrupted the competition for the best actor, but also made the competition for supporting actors confusing; Kate-Winslet also contributed two excellent works of "Revolutionary Road" and "Life and Death Reading", which has been oscillating back and forth between Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress, and also added to the actress department. variable.
Throughout the awards season, the competition between the six most important awards seems to be a roller coaster, with constant ups and downs.
First and foremost is the competition for the best picture. The competition among the top three players, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," "Slumdog Millionaire," and "Juno," is completely heated. In addition, "Fox talks to Nixon. ", "Milk", "Batman Prequel: The Dark Knight", "Robot Wall-E", "The Hurt Locker" these eight works constitute the first group competing for the final seat.
The tense situation in which eight works form the first group is indeed unprecedented, and it is indeed more chaotic than the situation in which the 79th Oscars six-strong competition is going on. In the second group, "Child Abuse Suspicion", "Wrestler", "Revolutionary Road", and "Life and Death Reading" all have the ability to reverse. To put it simply, there are more than a dozen works that really hope to compete for the five best picture Oscar seats. Who could have predicted such a situation?
Before the Oscar nominations were announced, "Juno" had become the representative contestant of the first group, and this typical sketch won the North American Broadcasting Film Critics Association Award, the Golden Globe Award and the favor of three Film Critics Association; "ghetto" "The Millionaire" is another shiny dark horse. It has the last laugh at the National Critics Association Awards, the Golden Globe Awards and the two Society of Film Critics Awards, making this British representative work outrageously another show of strength. 's masterpiece.
"Juno" and "Slumdog Millionaire" achieved such excellent results, largely due to the depressed mass mentality after the financial crisis. They desperately needed such positive and sunny works to regain their confidence, so these two This small piece of work has also won a good achievement that can be called the sky.
"The Hurt Locker" defeated the local "Slumdog Millionaire" at the BAFTA and became the final winner, with a remarkable record, and there are three more Film Critics Association Awards to escort; "Milk" captured three stops. The Film Critics Association has also become a major bargaining chip; "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" and "Fox Talking to Nixon" each won two Film Critics Association Awards, and the subject matter itself is Oscar's favorite big river drama and serious historical themes.
In terms of subject matter, "Batman: The Dark Knight" and "Robot Wall-E", one is a comic hero commercial blockbuster, and the other is a cartoon, which is even less dominant than a sketch like "Juno", but 2008 In the situation where the best works of the year are gathered and the classics are lacking, "The Dark Knight" and "Robot Wall-E" are known as the only two remaining classics, and they have been praised like a wave. These two works are also unprecedented. They each captured a film critics association, and brazenly entered the first group of the awards season.
There were a total of seventeen stations of the Film Critics Association, and the eight top-seeded contestants joined forces to complete the sweep. Such a feat can be called an absolutely balanced situation of equal shares. There is no absolute strong or absolute weak. No wonder people say this year has been an unprecedented mess.
In addition, the final award distribution of the five trade unions of producers, directors, actors, screenwriters, and editors has once again reproduced the grand occasion of 2000. The five trade unions are interested in five different works, and the five trade unions will reward them in order. "Juno", "The Hurt Locker", "Child Abuse Suspect", "Milk", "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button", while adding more chips to these five works, also let the best picture win The competition is in an even more dire mess.
From the current situation, although the eight works are evenly matched as a whole, the power balance is slightly different, "Juno", "The Hurt Locker", "Slumdog Millionaire", "Benjamin Button" The six works of "A Strange Thing", "Milk" and "The Dark Knight" have a slight advantage, or more awards or better word of mouth, but the gap between the remaining two works "Robot Wall-E" and "Fox Talking to Nixon" is also It is not obvious, and it is not surprising who completed the reversal in the end.
In the nomination list, it is a huge challenge to give up anyone, and it may be a wave of criticism; even if the nomination list is hotly released, it is estimated that the final winner will be a huge mystery, and it is estimated that this year will also be the strength The awards ceremony with the smallest comparison gap.
In addition to this ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Child Abuse Suspicion", "Revolutionary Road", "Life and Death Reading", and "Wrestlers", the second group formed together should not be underestimated, "Child Abuse Suspect" won the actor The support of the union, the cast of Meryl Streep, Amy Adams, Philip, Seymour and Hoffman, has become the biggest bargaining chip; "Revolutionary Road" is Kate Winslet, Leon Nado DiCaprio teamed up again after ten years, and Sam Mendes was the director. Slater put on another performance that caught everyone's eyes; Needless to say, "The Wrestler" has been winning praise since Venice.
The top eight players—listed, four players are waiting for the opportunity, this is indeed an unprecedented situation, and this is not the early stage of the awards season, and it has entered the final sprint stage of the awards season, and it still presents such a structure. More and more headaches.
Corresponding to the best picture, the competition landscape for the best director presents a slightly different situation, but what is certain is that the intensity of the competition is absolutely not discounted, especially last year when the Oscars were awarded for the first time. After twenty-five-year-old Evan Bell! This year's Best Director presents an open-ended structure.
There are actually as many as twelve contestants who are qualified to compete for the best director!
