King of Hollywood

Chapter 164: Stunning Nominations List

“So you just want to apologize for getting a role for Jane?” Adrian frowned half a dozen times before asking, even with a fox in his face.

“Of course, I know that every time you show that look, there must be new ideas or ideas, and most likely the person who inspired you will be invited to play the part, which is why Jane is reminded over and over again.” Dennis hey two laughs, Adrian glanced at herself and quickly shook her hands up on both sides of her head: “Anyway, I did owe her something. Supervising her fitness and weight loss was just a joke at the beginning, so...”

Adrian covered his forehead with his eyes rolled over, watching Dennis do gestures.

According to Dennis, his acquaintance with Jennifer coincided. About three months ago, when he drove out, he accidentally followed a car owned by Jennifer, which naturally gave rise to controversy. Dennis had just begun to make her feel bad, but Jennifer was in a bad mood, so the argument quickly escalated into a fight.

At that time, Jennifer weighed 200 pounds and quarreled in a very aggressive way, and if Dennis wasn't higher than her, she might have suppressed her. Fortunately, the police arrived soon, and it was not too hard to recognize Dennis - fortunately, there were no journalists in the vicinity, and the situation, though intense, did not last long, which is why they were not hugged.

After that, Jennifer was calm and Dennis was also calm, so the two of them went to a cafe to discuss the aftermath. Dennis and Jennifer became friends after a few fights, and Dennis couldn't say for himself why. Next, Dennis joked that he knew some great dietitians and fitness coaches who could help her lose that stubborn weight. The words poked at Jennifer's pain, and she rebutted it immediately. After two or three rounds, Dennis claimed that it would be difficult for Jennifer to lose weight as long as he supervised her.

Jennifer finally agreed for some reason, and after exchanging addresses and phone numbers, Dennis fulfilled the deal from the next day, and then had a party where Jennifer was a lot skinnier? Anniston.

Most of these woods are all told by Dennis, but in some places he talks vaguely, such as after-car negotiations, while in others he talks in detail, such as how to supervise Jennifer's workouts. So a small part of it was Adrian's own guess, so he still felt a little bit untrue.

“Well, you're just friends.” Adrian rubbed both sides of his head, "So... where's your Norrie? ”

“Still... in calm," Dennis gave a helpless look, "Sometimes I really want to end up like this, I never thought I'd end up like this, tripartite entanglement, hard to decide... I'm hard, Ed. ”

“What's so hard about that?” Adrian lifts his hands, "if you feel bad, then break up. This kind of thing is unusual in Hollywood. Feel it together, break up if you don't feel it. ”

“But I still feel for Norrie, Ed, and I love her, and I really want to be with her.” Dennis was serious, and Adrian punched the corner of his mouth and dismissed his argument.

“And a few days ago, she had officially broken up with Depp, just the press didn't know, so I couldn't go without her.” Dennis sat upright and looked very straightforward.

After watching him for a few minutes and making sure he was telling the truth, Adrian raised his hands: "Okay, let's talk about what you did in England. Neville is happy with you, but I need you to pay attention to these things...”

Let him go. It's all his business anyway. Adrian finally thought so.

Time unwittingly collapsed into February 1993, and the world is still moving slowly on its established trajectory, with different places, of course, such as the newly released nomination list for the 65th Oscar Golden Statue Award.

Although many people have predicted the list, and many people have predicted it very close to reality, many people have breathed cool air or stared at it even after it was officially released.

“I think that such a list has never existed before, and I'm afraid it will happen again, and Adrian has created a miracle.” One radio host was very emotional when he spoke of the nomination list.

Rather than the show host, critics prefer to complain about how they feel: “The Cinema Academy judges must be confused, otherwise I can't think of any reason to give that kid so many nominations. ”

And fans don't care so much, they show their support for the director they like.

“He deserves so many nominations for the Oscars, given that he can shoot all the subjects and is so good at filming them.” They shouted so loudly in the face of the journalist's interview, though many fans thought Adrian was cheating on them when Howard Manor was shown, and there were still a lot of loyal fans.

This happens because, if we split up, Adrian won six nominations for the current Oscar and didn't co-nominate Low Vulgar Novel for the best original script and the best editing, and Smell the Scent Woman and Howard Manor won him two nominations for adapted scripts, four of them. And more importantly, and most surprisingly and jealously, Howard Manor and Lowlife won him the nomination of two of the best directors.

That's right, two. Of the 65th Oscar King Award nominations released by the Academy of Cinema, the best directorial nomination was: Clint Unforgivable? Eastwood, Neil from The Cry Game? Jordan, Greg from "I don't know who he is"? Elvis and Adrian from Howard's End, Lowlife? Corwell.

No wonder people think it's a miracle, although there are three directors in the history of Oscar who were nominated for more than one best director at the same time in different films, but that was a long time ago, the latest being 11 years ago, in 1939. As Oscar matured and the selection mechanism became more rigorous, this was no longer the case, so Adrian would receive such attention when the nomination list came out. Novel] Just

This is just one big aspect, and getting nominations for the best original script and the best adapted script, the best adapted script is also a double nomination, etc., is one of the reasons why it is so hot. In addition, several other important award nominations are of direct relevance to him. Although Monica wasn't nominated for the best actress, Samuel? Jackson and John? Travolta was nominated for the best male lead and the best male lead.

Combined with the unmistakable nominations of Pacino and Thompson for the best male and female protagonists, the best directorial nominations for Fragrant Woman and Howard Manor, Adrian not only received six nominations in his personal capacity, but also had a direct bearing on six other nominations. To be honest, if Oscar hadn't always seemed fairer - at least ostensibly - and had enormous influence, someone might have called it a dark screen.

In fact, there are reporters in the tabloids who have implicitly pointed this out, just not many of them. Forgive me, but the list has also sparked much discussion, with a wide variety of voices, as much enthusiasm as the quarrels over Howard's End last year.

“If they know you've declared" Fragrant Woman "to be the best director, they don't know what to think.” Looking at these articles in the paper, Adrian asked LaVerne softly.

“It won't be more intense than it is now, unless you get nominated for the best director in three films.” LaVerne shrugged.

“That's impossible.” Adrian Haha laughed and only two Oscars had been nominated for the best directors in three films, and now it was a remarkable achievement to be nominated for two of the best directors.

“You're doing great, Ralph. Nobody's doing better than you.” He praised without stingy.

“That's because the quality of the film is guaranteed,” LaVerne shook her head, "without this premise, better PR would be useless. You're truly brilliant, Ed, and there's never been a director like you. Honestly, Warner, if you hadn't just shot your own script, they would have waved it up and asked for cooperation. ”

“In fact, Roger has already been approached, just not many scripts.” Adrian shrugged, "Beyond that, Claude was found wanting to acquire Bosworth Film Industry, and I don't know what they were thinking. ”

'Cause probing is better than doing nothing. ”LaVerne smiled and said that he knew part of Adrian's ambition and that of his best friend.

“I don't mind working with big companies to make their scripts into movies," Adrian said suddenly, "as long as the story touches me. ”

It's also a way to get along with big companies. Besides, they always have a great movie script that he doesn't remember, and it's not a bad thing to work together once or twice, and...

“You should have told Roger that, not me.” LaVerne half joked and asked seriously after a while: "Ed, maybe consider competing for Oscar's best director. ”

“Do you really think so?” Adrian frowned.

At first, he planned to put Pacino and Thompson on the throne of the Movie Emperor and the Queen, adding some qualifications to his nomination for the best director. But Adrian didn't expect LaVerne to get him a nomination for the best director last year, and he was the youngest and best director on record, and then this year he got two nominations for the best director in two films. He was inexperienced, but at least he already had one, and the Cinema Academy generously gave him two nominations for the best director, so I'm sure they wouldn't really consider awarding him the best director.
