King of Hollywood

Chapter 88 Nomination of the Youngest Director

“I've never been in a situation where I don't know where to start when I'm trying to describe a person. This is a strange person, a wonderful person, and I have not spoken to him in person, and I have always liked to look for their qualities in the directors' works. But this was an exception, and I looked at his three pieces several times, and I didn't find any connection in them, which was really surprising.

Simply put, the three films were made from three different perspectives, completely undisturbed. We know that many directors have their own style, and no matter what the subject matter of the film they make, they will more or less find the shadow of some other work. But in Memory Shards, you don't see a single possible connection to Two Big Smoke Guns, and you don't see the shadows of the first two films in Shawshenk's Redemption.

I often wonder what kind of person this youngest Oscar nominee for best director would be, and his three works are like three irrelevant people producing directors. When I learned a little bit about what he was going through, I felt more confused. Just two years ago, he was just a drunken dude all day -- yes, yes, literally. Adrian? Cowell's father, Jeffrey? Corwell was the president of a company that tragically died four years ago in an air crash with his wife, and Adrian has been drinking ever since. However, two years later, he seemed to wake up suddenly, picked up the tube, made the director, and achieved surprising results.

We all know that he's made three films so far, and we know that he's a new Hollywood director with a ghost title, but I'm sure a lot of people probably ignored the amount of time he spent making films. According to my survey, "Two Big Smoke Guns" was launched in June '90, and then the film took part in the Venice Film Festival in August; "Memory Shards" was launched in November' 90, and then the Berlin Film Festival in February '91; and "Shawshenk's Redemption" was launched in April' 91, and although it was shown at the end of October, it was all done by the end of August!

God, no director has ever had that kind of efficiency? In addition to this, all three films earned high prices in the box office, and both Memory Shards and Redemption of Shawshenk gained considerable reputation, while the reputation of Two Big Smoke Guns was less than that of the next two films, but the clever cut still received a lot of accolades.

Frankly, I didn't see Shawshenk's Redemption before the Oscar nomination list came out because of his two previous films, which I thought were similar. It wasn't until now that I realized what I almost missed, that the film reminded me of the ordeal I had eight years ago when I was a little journalist, and I wouldn't be sitting in front of a typewriter typing these words for you if I hadn't held on with hope. Can you believe it? It took him only 4 months or less to make this film!

Mass and speed, in contrast to this theorem, didn't seem to work on Adrian, at least I knew that Shawshenk's Redemption wasn't out yet, and he started making his fourth film, and he invited Al? Pacino starred as the lead actor; besides, just after completing the production of this new film, he immediately started making his fifth film again... can his energy never run out?

This is amazing, a dude who was a dude who didn't understand anything 2 years ago but was nominated for the best director in Oscar 2 years later, and three of the four films made in the last 2 years have been successful, how many people can do that?! Well, if that's not enough, according to the information I got, a lot of the movie scripts from the high box office last year came out of his hands, like Warner's Bodyguard, or Worldwide's Scream.

When I put it all in front of me, I was stuck for five minutes, and I couldn't imagine what kind of person he was, and how he did it. He thinks he shouldn't be called a ghost, he should be called a genius, and if he can, I hope he gets my interview. ”

- Haggis? Pinet, The Washington Post.

With the release of the 64th Oscar nomination list, Hollywood attracted public attention, and the current Oscar accidentally put Silent Lamb, a horrifying movie, on top of eight awards, including Best Film, Best Director, Best Male Leader, Best Actress, Best Adapted Script, Judy? Foster and Anthony? Hopkins' masterful performances were therefore unanimously viewed by film critics. Will Foster get the best actress again? Can Hopkins get the best lead in less than 30 minutes? These are all happiness stories.

However, the powerful entrance to Silent Lamb attracts a lot of attention, but not the most attention. The most attention is Shawshenk's Redemption and its director Adrian? Cowell!

"Shawshenk's Redemption" is the winner of the Oscar's 8 Awards for Best Film, Best Director, Best Male Actor, Best Male Actor, Best Adapted Script, Best Match, Best Edit and Best Photography! This is an absolutely remarkable achievement, and Adrian alone has won three nominations: Best Director, Best Adapted Script and Best Edit. One can imagine how surprised people should be. But what surprised them more was Adrian's personal experience.

In the Washington Post, chief entertainment reporter Haggis? Until Pinter's story came out, Adrian was only impressed by a new and sharp director with the title of a ghost, and all three films were successful - it had to be said that he did well in keeping a low profile in front of the media.

And it wasn't until the Oscar nomination list came out that the 24-year-old became Oscar's youngest, best director nominee -- unfortunately, the youngest, best director nominee, twenty days less than Adrian? Singleton was squeezed - in addition to being nominated for both the best adapted script and the best clip, it was amazing.

And when Pinet's story came out, this sense of surprise was suddenly magnified countless times. A dude who often drinks two years ago suddenly picks up the tube as a director and makes three consecutive films. Not only does each one sell in the box office, but the last one, like Silent Lamb, wins eight Oscars nominations. Besides, he is also a writer of Bodyguard and Scream. His filmmaking process is unusually short. His first two films were also won at the Venice and Berlin Film Festivals, which... this is also amazing? This is a fantasy novel!

Public interest in Adrian soared by dozens of percentage points.
