Chapter 194
Eve's big cat eyes became brighter and brighter, and finally she insisted on giving Josie a high five. After sending an email to the person in charge of the publisher, she started calling her informant in "Variety Show".
"I remember when you first debuted, you were approached by an editor of "Variety Show" magazine?" Eve mentioned an incident four years ago, when Josie just debuted, she was robbed by someone because of her position Studio of the day.
Before Josie opened her mouth, Eve found the answer from her client's expression, and turned her attention to the phone call just connected.
Everyone has to pay the price for what they have done. The anger of an A-list star is enough to make that editor lose his position unless the other party is willing to make up for it.
——For example, taking advantage of his position, he asked the network operation department of "Variety Show" to send an advertising email or something.
Josie, who was temporarily ignored, looked down at her watch, and decided to go to a spa while she still had time, and then go for styling.
During this period, Archie Dano from Tianji Films turned on the phone and asked if she had time to attend the American Film Expo in Las Vegas, which was undoubtedly rejected by Josie.
Because last year it was the turn of Sony Columbia to hold the exhibition, it was turned into a weird shareholder meeting. Frank Horton, who returned from the meeting, described Michelle Pfeiffer, Julia Roberts and other Hollywood stars who appeared in succession. He became the mascot at the company's annual meeting, and told his daughter as a joke.
Tonight Josie has an awards season outpost awards show that she needs to attend, Sony Columbia's PR team has hinted at her that there is a [-]% chance that this award is hers, so she better prepare her speech well in advance, even though the ceremony is not televised broadcast, but the award season is to do everything impeccable, the most likely to have the last laugh.
Don’t you see how many actors with astonishing strength are defeated by one mouth, and the result of reckless behavior is that they will miss the Oscars for several years or even decades, as far away as Al Pacino, and as close as they can be played by global netizens in the future Leonardo DiCaprio, their examples are enough to illustrate the narrow-mindedness of the old man.
Closer to home.
Generally speaking, Oscar’s outposts refer to the awards of various Film Critics Associations, large and small, while the four major wind vanes are the Broadcast Film Critics Association, the Screen Actors Union, the Golden Globe Awards, and the British Academy of Film Awards. However, it needs to be explained that, The current British Academy of Film Awards, referred to as the British Austrian or AFTA, has not yet been included in the luxury package of the Hollywood awards season, because its awarding time is after the Oscars, but after the millennium, the British changed the rules. Austria has become a must for the Oscars.
In addition to Josie herself, the most popular contestants in this year's Best Actress category are as follows:
Australian newcomer Cate Blanchett, a professional theater actor, starred in her first Hollywood film "Road to Heaven" in the first two years, but did not change her career until this year in the historical film Contributed a very deep performance in "Elizabeth", which returned to the attention of Hollywood;
Gwyneth Paltrow, Brad Pitt's ex-fiancée and the second generation of Hollywood stars, this actress first got an electric shock in the godfather Steven Spielberg's movie, the starting point is very high, but apart from Outside of a perfect relationship with Brad Pitt, there hasn't really been a big hit.However, her personal temperament is quite special, she belongs to the rare type of actress in Hollywood, and Miramax's award-winning "Shakespeare in Love" this year also well shows her noble elegance and classical lady's temperament;
Emily Watson, one of the best actresses in Britain at the moment, her Olympic debut this time is the biopic "She's Lonely Than Fireworks", based on the 1997 film of Jacqueline Dupre's sister Hilary and her younger brother The biography "Cell Love" co-authored by Pierce was adapted, but due to the large number of inaccuracies in the original book itself and the distortion of the talented cellist Du Pré, it was strongly resisted by many friends of Du Pré during his lifetime. It can be said that under such circumstances, Ai It is basically impossible for Millie Watson to be sealed as queen;
Jane Horrocks, who is also from the UK, played an introverted and shy girl with an amazingly good voice in "The Dumb Singer", almost imitating Judy Garland and Marilyn Monroe , Sally Bescher and other famous repertoires.
In addition to the younger generation, actresses of the older generation also produced excellent works this year, such as Meryl Streep in "Priceless Love" and Fernanda Montenegro in "Central Station". An amazing attempt at an Oscar nomination, the latter won the Berlin Best Actress and two outposts, both of which are regarded as strong contenders for this year's Oscar for Best Actress.
Interestingly, Meryl Streep herself was the guest performer for the Best Actress award tonight. When she laughed at herself humorously, there was a burst of tacit laughter at the dinner party.
"When they invited me to present the award, I knew it wouldn't be Meryl Streep."
The well-established actress raised the envelope containing the list of winners in her hand, and began her speech before the awards with humor and solemnity.
"As we all know, acting is an art about human action, and actors are observers as well as fighters. As actors, it is our job to understand the weight of all our lines. An actor must feel the power, quality and depth of thought. We understand And pass on the thoughts of great writers, don't make mysteries, don't parrot, but reveal the truth of life and arouse people's thinking."
Meryl Streep paused for a few seconds, sighed and looked around the dinner party, and continued: "What I want to say is, never take acting for granted. Today's actors tend to make themselves small, When she is sitting comfortably on her little stool, wearing her bright and beautiful dress, gazing from left to right at the small world she has built, she also confines herself only in the comfort zone of homogeneity , the range does not exceed this table at our dinner party."
There was another burst of cooperative laughter at the scene, but some people with very sharp minds have already realized that every word that comes out of Meryl Streep's mouth tonight has a meaning, and she even became the best actress. The matter of the protagonist's award presenter seems to have been planned long ago.
Ms. Streep's bullets are not very pleasant.
So who is the unlucky guy who was bombarded by her?
Check out the other four actresses nominated. Cate Blanchett in "Elizabeth" has a perfect smile and looks at Meryl Streep with just the right amount of admiration; Jane Horrocks in "The Dumb Singer" is a sweet blonde Sister, it seems that she didn't hear the overtones of the award presenters at all, and it's very novel to blink her big eyes; Emily Watson in "She's Lonely Than Fireworks" has a cramped expression. This movie was criticized for vilifying Dupre Strongly protested, apparently she was not in a very good mood recently.
Moreover, what Meryl Streep said on the stage, such as "strength", "depth", and "quality", every word and every word seemed to be alluding to the movie she starred in, making her a little Feeling a little uneasy.
Qiao Qian, who was pointed at her nose and scolded, was very calm.
"I'm thinking, we shouldn't have offended her?" The young actress in A's haute couture dress smiled sweetly, applauded symbolically, and turned her head to the ear of the male partner beside her. , "So why is she always looking at me?"
Josie is always so sensitive to people's gaze, not to mention Meryl Streep's targeted gaze always lingers here.
This kind of small method that seems generous in person but is actually eccentric is so familiar that Josie still feels a little nostalgic.
Ernest Dawson, who was sitting next to Josie, glanced at her silently. He was wearing an evening dress (TUXEDO) that was made of the same material as Josie's dress. The inlaid lapel collar and velvet tie complemented each other perfectly. It made the ancient Greek sculpture-like face more handsome and sharp.
"She was looking at you," Ernest said, "but I promised Eve that I would look at you and not make you do anything inappropriate or unladylike—such as staring back. .”
The director didn't get any heavyweight nominations such as best director and best picture tonight, but he was nominated for a best original screenplay, so their public relations team put together a pair of handsome men and beautiful women Show up at a dinner party instead of pairing the hero and heroine of a movie.
——Come on, everyone knows how much Josie Holden hates Russell Crowe. She didn't even bother to be in the same frame as the latter during the film's promotional interview, but chose Christian Bale, who is not as good as her partner. .
Josie smirked at Ernest, and said by holding up the water glass: "Ernie, you are looking more and more like a serious and old man now, and I doubt whether Eve has instilled in you What a weird idea, so that you actually believe that I have the slightest chance of being rude. Please, who am I? I am Josie Horton!"
Meryl Streep on the stage continued her tirade: "...a doctor who has not improved technically is a quack doctor; an actor who has not improved, then she can only be a A dull actor."
Ernest was amused by Josie's confidence, but he only raised the corners of his mouth very quickly for a slight smile, and returned to his indifferent expression in the blink of an eye.
"In any case, I'm sure you're perfect in my camera." He said with such an expression and almost the same tone, "—perfect beyond what I can imagine."
Josie's eyebrows were curved, and her beautiful blue eyes were like two sapphires with vitality. It was obvious that her mood suddenly changed from cloudy to sunny.
Who doesn't like to hear others praise themselves?
What's more, the boaster is Ernest Dawson, who is often dubbed "the cold, ruthless and poisonous British guy".
Even the way he praises others is so fresh and refined.
"My friend, you can really talk!" Josie was not stingy with her sweet words, "Just based on your words, no matter when, where, or any shooting project, I would go through fire and water for you."
Ernest really thought about it, and said seriously: "You know, Josie, I have always wanted to adapt Shakespeare, but it has not been able to start for various reasons, but now that you have joined, I think everyone will have confidence in this project."
"Oh? Which story do you want to adapt?" Josie asked with interest.
