Chapter 2360: 3-Legged Stand

With the “Black Swan” winning the Berlin Golden Bear Award, the 2010 awards season came to an end and at the same time ushered in a climax. All award ceremonies were settled, which also means that the pattern of the entire awards season has gradually become clear. The last Oscar is left to reveal all the suspense and end the 2010 awards season war.

At the 68th Golden Globe Awards, which ended not long ago, “The Social Network” won the Best Picture in the Drama category, “The Children Are All Well” won the Best Picture in the Comedy Music category, and the Best Director was awarded by “Social Network”. David Fincher of “Internet” won, the best actor of drama belongs to Colin Firth of “The King’s Speech”, the queen of drama favored Natalie Portman of “Black Swan”, and the best actor of musical comedy was awarded It was given to Paul Giamatti of “Trivial Life”, and the actress in the musical comedy category was finally won by Annette Bening of “The Children Are All Well”, and the best supporting actor was Christian Bale of “The Fighter”, Best Supporting Actress goes to Blake Lively for “The Fighter” and Best Screenplay goes to Christopher Nolan and Evan Bell for “Inception”.

Although the list of winners of the Golden Globes is becoming more and more unreliable, no one will deny that the Golden Globes are still the most watched awards ceremony after the Oscars, so the overall trend of the Golden Globes and the awards season are not There will be huge discrepancies. On this list of winners, the overall situation of this year’s awards season is clearly displayed, “The Social Network”, “The King’s Speech”, “The Children Are Well”, “The Fighter”, “Inception” “These five works are highly anticipated.

In fact, in the ongoing 2010 awards season, the chaos caused by the ten nominations has gradually calmed down, but the overall situation of excellent works has not changed much, and this year’s awards season has continued for the past six years. The core focus of the situation is that this year’s art films have all exploded at the box office!

The five works of “The Social Network”, “Black Swan”, “The King’s Speech”, “Thunderbolt”, and “The Fighter” are all independent works of the art department, but the North American box office of these five works actually broke through. The threshold of 100 million, which is very rare in previous years, is also the biggest surprise this year.

Among them, the global box office of “Black Swan” and “The King’s Speech” both exceeded 400 million, which can be regarded as an unprecedented situation.

On the other hand, the three commercial works of “Toy Story 3”, “Inception” and “The Thief in the City” have actually won praise in North America for their artistic value, and their absolutely outstanding performance at the box office coupled with professional film critics Sure, it’s also earned commercial films a place in awards season.

The bizarre situation of art films winning the box office and commercial films making breakthroughs in art makes this year’s awards season difficult to understand.

In addition to the above eight works, together with “Shutter Island”, “The Children Are All Well” and “127 Hours”, these eleven works together constitute the first group for the best picture competition.

Although it is said to be the first group, in fact, there are still grades between these eleven works. “The Social Network”, “The King’s Speech”, “Thunderbolt”, “Inception” and “The Fighter” have no Doubt is the strongest player at present. Whether it is box office or word of mouth, whether it is director or actor, these five works have strong strength. If this year is still the top five best film seats, it is estimated that it is difficult for other works to surpass these five. It is rare for a player to have such an outstanding dominance.

“The Social Network” directed by David Fincher, “The King’s Speech” directed by Tom Hopper, and “Inception” directed by Evan Bell and Christopher Nolan are currently the best performers. Dou also runs through the entire awards season, and it can be called the pinnacle of the tripartite existence. It is no exaggeration to say that the best picture Oscar is likely to be born among these three.

“The Social Network” brought 2010 “Time” person of the year Mark Zuckerberg to the movie screen, which involved the history of Evan Bell’s involvement, and Mark Zuckerberg and The grievances and grievances between Eduardo-Savarin have attracted the attention of countless people, not to mention the protagonist of Facebook, which will push the Internet era to a new peak in the 21st century. David Fincher’s sharp editing and realistic style perfectly combined the public with art, which also earned this work the honor of “21st Century ‘Citizen Kane’”. The last time “There Will Be Blood”, which received such acclaim, brought Evan Bell a golden statuette for the best director at the Oscars. What will happen to “The Social Network” this time?

Corresponding to the ‘social network” is the “Inception”, which has created a new box office history in the midst of praise. The collaboration of Evan Bell and Christopher Nolan has given This work is rich in commercial elements, and at the same time excavates the pain and reflection in the depths of human nature. This work is known as the top work that achieves a balance between business and art. The cooperation of the two directors has brought the work to a classic height, allowing “Pirates of Dreams” to appear in the summer season, and all the way to the awards season.

The involvement of ‘social network” and Evan Bell spread to the awards season and evolved into a war between David Fincher and Evan Bell, which was mapped from real life to the big screen and then returned to real life. The duel is really exciting and unstoppable.

The last of the three pillars is actually involved with Evan Bell. The “King’s Speech”, which was once rejected by him, is really powerful. It was directed by Tom Hopper, who was born in historical dramas, and was nominated for the best actor last year. Starring Colin Firth, retro, history, king, England, dilemma, inspiration, these elements are undoubtedly the favorites of the academy. If it was six years ago, before Sid Ganis took over the academy, Even if “The King’s Speech” won the Oscar for best picture, I’m afraid not many people will question it.

While “The King’s Speech” is uneventful in its directing style, without the sternness of David Fincher, nor the sharpness of Evan Bell and Christopher Nolan; it is mediocre in terms of storytelling, without the sharpness of David Fincher. The characteristics of the era, nor the innovation of Evan Bell and Christopher Nolan. But in general, “The King’s Speech” is such a style. It’s quite satisfactory, and it may not have enough highlights, but it is the favorite of the old school, and it can be called one of the best models of the “Oscar series”.

Throughout the awards season, “The Social Network” won the National Critics Association Award and the Golden Globe, “Inception” won the North American Broadcasting Film Critics Association Award, and “The King’s Speech” was the winner of the British Academy Award. In addition, “Inception” was supported by the Five Station Film Critics Association, “The Social Network” won the four Station Film Critics Association, and “The King’s Speech” also received praise from the three Station Film Critics Association.

It can be seen that “Social Network” and “Inception” are almost on a par, and “The King’s Speech” is only slightly inferior, and the disadvantages can be ignored. The top three players almost copied the trajectory of last year’s “Avatar”, “In the Cloud” and “Inglourious Basterds”, sweeping the awards season as the strongest.

But this year’s situation is obviously a little different. “The King’s Speech” is the favorite of the old-fashioned forces, “Social Network” has a large number of supporters among the emerging age groups, and “Inception” is the top representative of commercial films. In this way, “Social Network” and “Inception” are likely to compete for the judges of the new faction, and the “King’s Speech”, which has won the one-sided support of the old school, has the advantage of the fisherman.

Of course, this is just a guess and cannot be done with certainty. What’s more, although the tripartite confrontation is very strong, it does not mean that other competitors have no strength.

In addition to the top three, the first group’s “Earth Thunder” and “Fighter” must not be underestimated. The former is the latest masterpiece of the Coen brothers after “No Country for Old Men”, and the latter is in David-O-Russell’s The creation has won a lot of praise. Although these two works failed to win the wind vane, they were both shortlisted for most of the wind vane nominations, and the advantages are still very obvious. “Fighter” also won two stations. Support ~www.readwn.com~ must not be underestimated.

There were seventeen stations of the Film Critics Association, and the remaining three stations supported “Toy Story 3”, “Black Swan” and “The Children Are All Well”. And “The Thief in the City”, “127 Hours” and “Shutter Island” were also shortlisted under the three highly acclaimed directors Ben Affleck, Danny Ball and Martin Scorsese, respectively. A large number of nominations for the weather vane also made these works form the first group together with the previous strong performances.

The final selection of the five major unions in the United States is basically consistent with the lineup of the first group. The winners of the five major unions of producers, directors, actors, screenwriters and editors are “Inception”, “Social Network”, “The King’s Speech”, “Inception”, “The Social Network”.

The advantages of the top three players are very obvious. It can almost be said that they have completed the **** of the entire awards season. Among them, the competition between “Inception” and “Social Network” is even more heated. Regarding the popular “The King’s Speech”, the development trajectory of the awards season is indeed unpredictable.

If the number of nominated seats is five, then the overall situation this year is very clear, but unfortunately, there is no if. In the competition for ten seats, although there are eleven films as the first group, their positions are obviously not so stable, and there are a series of works that have the strength to impact the best picture nomination. This will also continue the melee situation in the past five years.
