Chapter 781 Residual Value
The 75th Oscars officially announced the nomination list.
"Chicago", "Lord of the Rings 2", "The Pianist", "The Hours", "Gangs of New York", "About Schmidt", "Far From Heaven" and other masterpieces are all blowing out, and then In addition, the global landscape of looming storms and storms permeates every corner of life, and the sense of unease that war may happen again is getting stronger and stronger. Everything makes this awards ceremony full of highlights.
However, it had nothing to do with Anson -
Edgar was right, Anson did not win an Oscar nomination.
The competition in the Best Actor category this year is too fierce and too close.
Adrien Brody of "The Pianist", Jack Nicholson of "About Schmidt", Daniel Day-Lewis of "Gangs of New York", Nicholas of "Adapted Screenplay" -Cage, Michael Caine of "The Quiet American."
Five actors earned nominations.
Not only Anson, Leonardo DiCaprio was also ignored.
After returning from the rainforest, Leonardo re-planned his career. He did not hesitate to change multiple agents just to be able to cooperate with Martin Scorsese, and even sacrificed his life for "Gangs of New York" Steven Spielberg's "cat and mouse game" finally got what he wanted——
Not only did he work with Martin, but he also acted with Daniel Day-Lewis.
Everything, pointing to the awards season, the goal of impacting the statuette and changing the halo of idols is indeed clearer and clearer.
However, it ended in failure.
The industry judges of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences still "cannot see" Leonardo's efforts, or they refuse to see Leonardo's attempts. The idol halo is as haunting as a curse. scattered.
What about Anson?
Such a result is completely expected.
But the situation is slightly different. "Gangs of New York" collected ten nominations including Best Picture and Best Director. Except for Leonardo, who did not receive any awards, Cameron Diaz also It was also ignored; however, the ten nominations were still worthy of the crew holding a celebration party.
"Cat and Mouse Game" seemed to have lost interest and was eventually nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Original Score. Among them, Christopher Walken did not receive much recognition throughout the awards season but unexpectedly made it to the top. The competition for the Best Supporting Actor award was a little surprise -
The crew couldn't laugh out loud.
The thing is like this.
No nominations, normal, because DreamWorks and Steven Spielberg had no intention of spending money on public relations during the awards season from the beginning. With such fierce competition this year, their hopes were slim, so they might as well relax The mentality is all about participation.
Even without a single nomination, the crew of "Cat and Mouse" was not disappointed.
What if you win the nomination?
That's an unexpected surprise.
At the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, Anson won the nomination for Best Actor in a Musical Comedy, which is the best proof. The crew was delighted; and after that, Anson received some nominations one after another. , miraculously occupying a small position during the awards season.
However!
Anson's name did not appear in the Oscar nomination list. Instead, Christopher Walken, who had almost no nominations throughout the awards season, was among the final five for Best Supporting Actor——
< br>First of all, congratulations to Christopher, he undoubtedly deserves praise and recognition.
Secondly, it can be seen at a glance that this is the Best Supporting Actor in which the Academy judges were biased against Anson and refused to vote, but felt sorry for him and finally chose Christopher out of guilt and compensation.
There is a very, very high possibility that this is the result of transfer compensation.
Of course, this is just a guess, and no one can be 100% sure; but this result still makes the "Cat and Mouse Game" crew a little embarrassed.
Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks have said on more than one occasion that they think Anson deserves more recognition; even Christopher Walken said Anson was not treated fairly.
Not only the crew, public opinion also showed a similar trend. Many media and audiences believed that Anson deserves more recognition——
The rise from the "cat and mouse game" is unstoppable It can be seen from the box office curve that Anson is conquering the market with the charm of the big screen.
What a pity.
The wood has become a boat.
At least this year, Anson still missed his first Oscar nomination.
However. That doesn't mean Anson won't appear at the Oscars.
After the academy announced the nomination list, it seemed that it also felt the pressure of public opinion. Although there was no public accusation, the rustling sounds were endless, proving once again that Anson is currently unbeatable. heat.
As a result, the college responded quickly -
It is naturally impossible for a high-ranking college to issue a statement specifically for Anson. They have smarter and more advanced methods.
Announcement of guests attending the award ceremony.
At this time, the college announced the second batch of guest list.
There is no Anson's name.
However, rumors were deliberately spread within the Academy, causing people to start discussing the possibility of Anson attending the awards ceremony. If Anson does appear at the Oscars, will he be purely a guest, or can he serve as an award presenter?
Discuss the heat and release it little by little.
Then, the college announced the guest list for the third time.
Still no Anson’s name.
The chattering and endless stream of opinions can easily detonate the Internet.
In this regard, Edgar said:
Ginger is still spicier with age!
The academy has mastered this trick of playing hard to get to the next level.
In fact, Edgar had already replied that Anson would attend the award ceremony, and the Academy should also announce Anson's name in the third batch of guest lists; however, the Academy did not and deliberately took advantage of Anson's topicality. Traffic allowed those conspiracies and suspicions to continue to ferment, so that trivial matters such as announcing the guest list have become a hot topic.
Squeeze all the value out of Anson.
High, really high!
It was not until the bustling discussion reached its peak that the college finally revealed the answer -
Anson Wood.
In the fourth batch of guest lists, Anson’s name was the first to be listed.
Netizens cheered and even applauded the college.
See, this is the method.
Not long ago, the Academy was involved in controversy for not nominating Anson; but now, quietly, the Academy has turned into a hero, bathed in praise and applause.
Public opinion has praised the academy for its boldness and openness, and its willingness to invite idols like Anson to attend the award ceremony. This is an improvement.
Edgar:? ? ?
At this time, it can once again be seen that the management of the Academy still has two skills. The authority and influence of the Oscars do not come out of thin air. Their ability to handle crises in the storm of public opinion is admirable. .
Old and spicy, still old and spicy.
However, even if there is such a sophisticated old fox in the industry who is as sophisticated as the academy, it is impossible for him to have a complete plan and to have a firm grasp of the entire situation.
Some things are out of control after all.
This time, it was Anson.
Over there, the college is taking advantage of Anson’s topicality to create traffic and popularity, and is taking advantage of it. It’s like taking advantage of it and doing well.
Here, Edgar was busy working on Anson's next career plan, and finally made the decision. Anson's next work - "Warmth and Light Within".
