Accident, besides the accident or the accident, the Best Original Script Award was definitely an accident. Lance couldn't help but smile when he looked at the little golden man in his hand.

The Best Adapted Screenplay Award for "City of God" is an accident, and the Best Original Screenplay Award for "Fruit Hard Candy" is also an accident. From this perspective, he is indeed the Oscar darling, just like John Ford, the director who pioneered and developed Western films, has won the Oscar best director Xiao Jinren with "The Grapes of Angry" and "Green Mountains and Valleys", defeating Alfred Hitchcock and Orson Wells twice, which also makes the latter two become the most famous uncrowned kings in Oscar history, and John is worthy of being the darling of the Academy.

But... Lance, the Oscar darling? This is really ironic, isn't it?

No wonder people always say that winning an Oscar requires a little luck. Isn't this the case for him? If someone told him before tonight that he would win the second screenwriter Xiao Jinren, he would definitely think that the other party was joking and deliberately making fun of George Clooney. Woody Allen took thirty years to get two screenwriter Xiao Jinren, but this is the case now - the second screenwriter Xiao Jinren in his life is in his hand, only three years, and what about the first director Xiao Jinren in his life?

Lance couldn't help but stop, stood on the side stage and turned around, looking at the stage. Tom Hanks walked onto the stage with applause. The creamy light fell down and gently fell on Tom's honest and honest shoulder. The white envelope in his hand almost disappeared into the halo, making people feel unreal.

Will the card in the envelope be his own name?

Tom felt a little hot with his fingertips, and the scorching eyes gathered at the same position - the envelope in his hand. However, Tom knew that it was not because the ceremony tonight was too intense, but on the contrary, it was because the whole dinner tonight was too boring, no bursts, no surprises, no surprises, and no new ideas for the host and the performances. The sleepy bug has already invaded the inside of the Kodak Theater, so people focused all their attention on the ownership of the best film. This was the only suspense. Even the small riots created by the opening Best Supporting Actor and the best original script just now came from the intricate causal relationship behind this suspense.

What is now certain is that tonight's Oscars seem to be about to create history, but whether it is a brilliant history or a shameful history is still an unknown? If "Brokeback Mountain" or "Fruit Hard Candy" wins, then this will break the Oscar's 78-year history, and works with new types and new themes reach the top; if other works win, then it is very likely that there are only two best film works with Little Golden Man - the premise is, who will the best director fall into?

So, not only the audience, but Tom himself couldn't wait to open the envelope and peek into the answer in advance.

This year's Best Director Award is widely regarded as a duo of Lee/Ann and Lance. The reason is simple, both directors have devoted incredible creations in their own jobs.

The grandeur and indulgent and deep injected into "Brokeback Mountain" by Li/An outlines the forbearance, bitterness, hardship, but richness, sincerity, and long-lasting love between homosexuals in the movie to the fullest, truly perfectly combining Eastern and Western cultures, and at the same time alluding to that period of history, the secular pressure brought by that period of cowboy culture and the suppression of human nature. This is undoubtedly a new breakthrough for the director. As Li/An said in an interview, he does not want people to focus on homosexuals. This movie describes a love, that's all.

Lance injected a kind of fear and reflection that makes the soul tremble. It is not only the visual impact brought by the long eleven-minute shot, but also the reflection on morality and sin, law and judgment, justice and punishment, especially the ending of "living is the greatest punishment", which is not only an impact on Western moral concepts, demonstrating the temperament of Eastern culture, but also reflecting Lance's thinking on the judicial system. As a movie, Lance achieved a breakthrough again and whipped social phenomena from a sharp and cold perspective. This has completely deviated from the small pattern in the movie and presented a magnificent picture.

From this perspective, neither Bennet Miller of "Capporte" nor Steven Spielberg of "Munich Tragedy" can be compared; let alone Paul Haggis, who "crashed" in the second half of the awards season, although this work emerged and had a huge momentum, the praise was focused on the clever expression of racial discrimination in the work. As for the director's position, Paul's traces of being a director of a TV series are too obvious, and many people complain that "crashed" is more like a TV movie.

Putting aside the turmoil of this year's awards season, Lee/An and Lance are also the ultimate rivals at major awards ceremonies. In terms of the awards so far, the two can be said to be the best director of the world, regardless of Xuan Ze. All important weather vanes have fallen out of the way, and they are all divided by the two. This naturally continues to the Oscars.

Interestingly, Lee/Ann and Lance are quite destined to be together. The first time they are known in Hollywood, both of whom both won the Best Foreign Language Film Award; both of them have unique styles, clear advantages and obvious disadvantages this year; and both of them speak fluent Chinese.

So, when the screenwriter department settled, people's first reaction was that whoever wins the Best Director or "Brokeback Mountain" or "Fruit Hard Candy" would win the Best Film. However, there is another suspense, that is, the trend of the awards tonight is really weird. If a dark horse can win the Best Director Award, who will it be?

If it was Steven Spielberg, it also means that the five nominees in the Best Picture won at least one Little Golden Man, and at most two Little Golden Man. Will the Best Picture be reduced to a big joke? If it wasn't Steven, then was it Bennett or Paul?

The air at the scene condensed, and Lance simply did not return to his seat. He stood in the standby room, looking up at the big screen in front of him, waiting for the announcement of the result. Compared to the tense atmosphere in the hall, the standby room was obviously much more restless. Many people were exchanging sights and communicating their thoughts. The slight and meticulous sounds that the camera could not capture, but their ears were very sensitive. The noise that was everywhere but could not find the source made the mood inexplicably more irritable. After winning the best original script, Xiao Jinren had not had time to calm down. He floated in the air, and could not reach the world or the ground.

What if I won the award?

After this idea came to his mind, it sprouted quickly, and it grew into a tree of sky in its breath, rooted in its depths of thoughts and could not extricate itself. Lance is not a saint, so he would not say any polite words of "Hope Lee/Want to Win the Award". He wanted to win this best director Xiao Jinren, just as he was eager to realize his dream of an actor; from ignorant exploring and clearly outlining the picture, to being familiar with the director, along the way, he made unimaginable efforts and devoted his uncalculable efforts. He was waiting for the moment of harvest, and he kept doing this; not to mention that this was his third consecutive competition for the best director. As the saying goes, there are only three things. He has tasted the taste of failure twice, and he does not plan to come again. Therefore, he is eager to win the award, and he is more eager than ever.

Looking at Tom on the screen, his every move seemed to involve all the minds of the audience watching this scene. Even as he breathed in and out, he couldn't bear to miss the wonderful moment. Tom lowered his head, tore open the envelope, pulled out the card placed inside, read it carefully, as if the card was not just a name, but a paper, or time completely frozen at this moment.

"The winner of the 78th Academy Award-winning director is..." Tom's voice came again, breaking the silence, like a heavy punch hitting the mirror, the spider-web-like cracks began to crack, the air became thinner and thinner, and a strong sense of suffocation began to surge, "Li/An, 'Brokeback Mountain'."

Lost.

Lance couldn't help but tighten his right hand into a fist, and his inner regret and even anger were leaked, but the hard object in his hand made him regain his mind. He looked down at the little golden man in the palm of his right hand. Lance let out a sigh of relief. Although he still couldn't let go immediately, he also knew that it seemed that luck would not be on his side this year.

Li An smiled and gave Li An applause. This world-famous Chinese director is step by step and steadily breaking out his own world. He should send him blessings and congratulations, and respect. Li An, who worked hard in Hollywood as a Chinese, won a place unyieldingly. He is a role model that Lance really needs to look up to.

"Pai Pa", Lance slapped his hands intently, watching the audience standing up for the second time tonight, joining everyone, cheering for the award that everyone expected.

So, is it "Brokeback Mountain"? With Li/An's victory, "Brokeback Mountain" has already won three Little Golden Man, Best Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Original Soundtrack. The closest "Fruit Hard Candy" is only two trophys away. Although there are still other works that are upset, it seems that all signs are showing that "Brokeback Mountain" is really going to create history. It not only becomes the first gay work in film history to win the Oscar for the best film, but also completely breaks the prejudices of the old scholars in the college and opens a glimmer of light for the social rights of the homosexual group.
