453 The sudden change of wind and cloud

The annual awards season was lively and exciting for four months, and finally ushered in the final battle of the first phase. In the eyes of the crowd, the 77th Oscars announced the nomination list.

The "Flyer", who led the strongly in the awards season, became the biggest winner without any suspense, received eleven nominations, and looked at the mountains with absolute advantage. With the initiation of the "Little Devil" this year, the "Flyer" who focused on the life of a generation of tycoon Howard Hughes achieved all-round suppression. The story not only showed the legend's magnificent life, but also showed his huge impact on Hollywood and the American aircraft industry, and his profound background demonstrated his magnificent momentum.

After the movie was released, "Flyer" was hailed as the biggest hit in the awards season. This is not the best work in Martin Scorses's career, but it can be seen that Martin's thirty-year directorial career has accumulated, which can be said to be the highest work. This is the best performance in Leonardo DiCaprio's career, especially because he vividly interprets Howard's pain and torture fell into madness due to paranoia, and became one of the most courageous performances on the big screen in 2004.

Martin and Leonardo are both top Hollywood characters, but they are also frustrated Hollywood people.

Martin, who became famous in the 1970s, is tied for the four major directors in the 1980s, and has dedicated historic classic works such as "good guy", "taxi driver", and "angry bull" in his career, but he has never been able to win a Little Golden Man. When the other three directors have achieved success, Martin is still working tirelessly for his first Little Golden Man.

Leonardo won the Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor in 1994, became famous at a young age, and was praised as the teenager Robert De Niro. Later, he became famous all over the world with the "Titanic" and became another top idol after Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt. However, he has been tirelessly pursuing his first Little Golden Man trophy, looking forward to proving himself with his strength.

The "Flyer" is called "a love letter to the Oscars" by Martin and Leonardo. From biography to schizophrenia, to the grandeur of the times, and to pay tribute to Hollywood, every detail shows that they are following the aesthetic tastes of the college judges, looking forward to winning the hearts of those tricky judges and achieving Oscar breakthroughs.

Now, after the nomination list was announced, "Flyer" has become the leader. Behind the eleven nominations of "Flyer", there are seven nominations for "Million Dollar Baby", and the gap is very obvious, which further highlights the advantages of "Flyer", giving people reason to start looking forward to this year's Oscars will belong to Martin and Leonardo, and Howard Hughes's "Flyer".

Best Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Original Screenplay, Best Movie Editing, Best Photography, Best Art Direction, Best Costume Design, Best Sound Effect, a total of 11 nominations.

It is worth noting that "Flyer" won six of the eight major awards. Except for the script department that chose one of the two, only the best actress nominated as the fish that missed the net. Especially the best supporting actor nomination, "Flyer"'s alan-alda (alan-alda) strongly entered the last five without having any advantage. From this detail, we can see the strong position of this film in the hearts of the judges of the academy.

It is worth mentioning that Allen is 78 years old this year and will become Morgan Freeman's strongest contender.

"Flyer" has achieved sweeps in all aspects, including the best movie editing, with no missing one important award, which further consolidates the film's leading position. In comparison, the performance of other works is slightly inferior, and "Million Dollar Baby" has become the biggest surprise.

Above the Golden Globes, "Million Dollar Baby" unexpectedly won two awards, but the overall momentum was simply not comparable to "Find Neverland", "Stolen Hearts" and "Glass of Wine Life". However, at the Oscars, the college judges' preference for Clint Eastwood was once again reflected, and they received seven nominations in one fell swoop, second only to "Flyer" - of course, the outstanding quality of the work itself cannot be ignored.

Among the seven nominations for "Million Dollar Baby", the Best Picture, Best Director, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Movie Editing. In other words, the eight nominations of the main department only missed the Best Supporting Actress and Best Original Screenplay, and replaced it with the best movie editing.

In addition to the full absence of the technical department, the powerful momentum of the "Million Dollar Baby" is almost the same as that of the "Flyer". Although there is a certain gap between the two in terms of the number of nominations, the quality of the nominations is that the male lead star Clint was actually a shortlisted for the best actor, which has become one of the biggest surprises in the entire awards season. This not only shows the college judges' preference for the old cowboys, but also clearly feels that the upward momentum of this work in the awards season is unstoppable.

It is not without reason to win the nomination for director and acting skills at the same time. The Academy is particularly fond of the case of acting but being good at directors, and this is not without basis.

"Million Dollar Baby" has become the No. 1 Group with its strong performance and has become the biggest competitor of the "Flyer", changing the trend of the entire awards season, which also makes the next five union awards crucial, and the battle for the Oscar Little Golden People will become fierce next.

In the original No. 1 Group, "Glass of Wine Life" maintained its advantage, while "Find Dream Island" and "Stealing Heart" both fell behind.

"Glass of Wine Life" received five nominations without any advantage in the technical department, continuing its previous strong performance. The best film, best director, best supporting actor, best supporting actress, best adapted script and other departments successfully entered the top five.

Missing the Best Movie Editing Award also means that "Glass of Wine Life" has fallen at a disadvantage in the battle for the best film, but considering the movie's skit style, this result cannot be considered an accident. The real surprise is that Paul Giamatti missed the battle for the best movie, which is also a bit unpopular. The corresponding one is naturally that Clint, who is "Million Dollar Baby", was successfully shortlisted.

Judging from this detail, the college still attaches limited importance to life sketches, such as "Glass of Wine Life" and "Lost Tokyo" last year.

Despite this, the five nominations for "Glass of Wine Life" are still a huge affirmation. All the finalists of the major award departments have made this work pay unprecedented attention. It can be seen from the growth momentum of the weekend box office. Just the weekend when the Oscar announced the nomination list, the box office of "Glass of Wine Life" soared by 122%, earning more than 7 million weekend box offices, and the cumulative box office also increased by more than 30%, which is obvious.

Compared to "Glass of Wine Life", "Stealing Heart" and "Finding Dream Island" have received many praises throughout the awards season, but they officially fell behind when the Oscar nomination list was announced, and they were replaced by "Soul Song King".

The biographical film "The King of Souls" tells the story of a generation of soul singer Ray Charles. It received a lot of praise throughout the awards season, but almost all of it was concentrated on Jamie Fox's performance. Therefore, above the Golden Globes, Jamie won the Best Actor in Music Comedy with almost no suspense, and is generally considered to have the ability to hit the Oscar winner - he is likely to become the disruptor of "Leonardo vs. Tom".

However, after entering the Oscar, "The King of Souls" has received more recognition. In addition to the best actor nomination, the best film, best movie editing, best sound effects and best costume design all occupy a place, which makes the total number of Oscar nominations for the movie reach five, and is on par with "Glass of Drink Life" to achieve a breakthrough in one fell swoop and become the second group.

Relatively speaking, "Looking for Dream Island" was squeezed out in full swing. With the call continued throughout the awards season, it was overtaken at the last moment, and only won four nominations including Best Picture, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Movie Editing, Best Costume Design. Although three of them were the most important major departments, they were not selected for Best Director and Best Actor, which also marked that the decline in the reputation of the film was unstoppable, and they had fallen behind a number of opponents in the competition for Oscars.

The "heart-stealing" who previously ranked first in the group was even more ignored. He only won the two nominations for Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress, and all other major departments were lost. Especially compared with the unlimited glory at the Golden Globe Awards, it was a huge accident.

During the previous awards season, this movie adapted from a stage play was praised. From acting to script to editing and rhythm control, it was full of popularity, but with the advancement of time, the attention of the work showed a trend of decline. Although this year is the Little Year of the Awards, there are a large number of works with similar quality. Obviously, the stage plays are not attractive enough to Hollywood, so the college in the end only praised two acting nominations.

From the rise of "Million Dollar Baby" and "Soul Singing King" to the backwardness of "Finding Dream Island" and "Stolen Hearts", the changes in the world are only a moment, and another work that has replaced it into the Second Group is... "Killing with a knife"!
