Chapter Two Hundred and Ninety Fifth Accident
"Then can I sit next to you next time?" Because there were no reporters around, Virginia let go a little and gave Eric a charming look.
Eric smiled and squeezed the girl's little hand, and said, "Of course, as long as you want."
Virginia looked around, the awards ceremony was still a few minutes away, and she was surrounded by familiar people, so she didn't break away, and let Eric hold her hand obediently.
At 16:30 Western Time, the 62nd Academy Awards ceremony officially began.
Learning from the lessons of the previous awards ceremony, this time, the host of the awards ceremony once again appeared. Billy Christo, in Eric's memory, Billy Christo hosted the nine Oscars one after another.
Many people wonder how such a guy who is not well-known in Hollywood can always appear on the stage of the Oscars. In fact, the host of the Oscars does not have to be a Hollywood actor. Most of the time, it is a TV talk show. host. Of course, Billy Crystal and another famous Oscar host Whoopi Goldberg are arguably the most famous Oscar hosts in Hollywood. In addition to being an actor, Proportion Christo is also a famous talk show host such as "Saturday Night Live".
The show starts,
As usual, it is a series of songs and dances of Oscar-nominated films. Christo will use this year's nominated films such as "My Left Foot", "Steel Magnolia", "Crystal Island", "Driving for Miss Daisy" one by one. The way of singing is sung, because the string of words is very exciting, and it is not a few words to ridicule the guests under the stage, so it makes people listen with relish.
After the finale of the Best Supporting Actor award, there is a series of minor awards that are irrelevant. It wasn't until more than 20 minutes later that the famous actor Steve Martin, known as Hollywood's "Bull-headed Man", stepped onto the podium, which made Eric a little bit of energy. Because, the next award is best original score. The "Wordless Love" that Eric copied from "Dark War" was nominated.
"A good soundtrack can make a movie even better, so let's see which movies have won this nomination this year," Steve Martin said, gesturing to the big screen. The soundtracks of several nominated films appeared one after another.
"Best original score nominees include 'The Little Mermaid' 'Kissing Girl', 'The Sweet Home' 'I Saw Your Smile'. The 'Wordless Love' of the Battle"."
After introducing the nominations, Steve Martin opened the envelope in his hand, glanced inside, then raised his head slightly in surprise and looked under the stage, his eyes locked on Eric's face for half a second, and then He quickly took it back and read: "The winner of this year's Oscar for Best Original Score is: 'Speechless Love', 'Dark War'."
Wow--
Before I remembered the sound of silent love, there was a uniform exclamation in the entire hall in advance, and then countless eyes turned to Eric.
Eric also stood up in disbelief. He quickly hugged everyone around him one by one, and walked towards the stage with a smile.
After taking over the statuette from the presenters, Eric came to the microphone. He quickly organized the language, looked around the audience, and said with a smile: "This is really surprising, I can't believe that the first Oscar award I won turned out to be the best original soundtrack. I thought it was heavier."
There was a chuckle from the audience.
After the laughter stopped a little, Eric continued: "More than a year ago. I was just an unknown young man who had just grown up, because of the sudden death of my father. I had to drop out of school and work in an Italian restaurant. Then suddenly. One day, I thought, I can't be like this anymore, I want to do something, I have to do something, this desire is very strong, so I started to try to write my first novel and first a script, luckily, with the help of some people, I got lucky and made it all the way to where I am today. I've loved music since I was a kid, and after getting paid for the movie Back to Seventeen, I bought my own The first piano, I always ponder some tunes in my spare time, and then write down some clumsily with staff, and "Wordless Love" is the product of this inspiration, I am not a professional scorer, so I got this The award was very unexpected. Here I would like to thank those who have helped me along the way, Mr. Michael Krause, who helped me publish my first book, James Brooks and Penny Marshall, who Gave me the opportunity to get into Hollywood, Jeffrey Hansen, who helped me make my first film, and silently supported me for the next year, and finally, the beauty of my films Girls, oh... well, don't laugh, I mean it, thank you, thank you all."
Although no draft was prepared, Eric completed the acceptance speech quickly and then walked backstage with the two presenters.
When Eric returned to his seat again, the best makeup following the best soundtrack had been awarded, and the guests were introducing the nominations for this year's Oscar for best foreign language film.
When two people Eric was not too familiar with read the award-winning film "Rodin's Lover", Eric looked at the neurotic woman on the big screen and his expression moved slightly.
"What's the matter, inspired again?" Virginia said with a little teasing in her tone.
Eric shook his head and said, "It's nothing, just suddenly remembered a few people."
"Why don't you just say it, remembering a few women." Virginia teased again softly.
Eric smiled, he did think of a few women, who were appearing on the big screen, Isabelle Adjani, and two other women, Sophie Marceau and Monica Bellucci.
Eric had a feeling that these three women, although Isabel Adjani had the best acting skills, Sophie Marceau was second, and Monica Bellucci was completely a vase, but in terms of appearance, The three have a lot in common. In the previous life, Eric saw someone comment that Isabel Adjani looked like a combination of Sophie Marceau and Monica Bellucci. (To be continued)
