1001 Butterfly Effect

The third update today, please recommend, please subscribe!

Ever since Evan Bell was reborn, he's actually been having a butterfly effect. //--//( -- full text) Everything about him seems to be changing. For example, the commercialization of digital music is ahead of schedule. The Silver Lion Award at the Film Festival...

However, for now, Evan Bell believes that there is only one real butterfly effect, that is, "Mysterious Skin" won the Silver Lion Award, which was not won in the original historical trajectory. Because other events, big or small, eventually developed according to the original trajectory, but he became a participant in it. After all, the power of his little butterfly in the long history is still too small.

But now, the result of another birth of the butterfly effect appeared in front of Evan Bell, the seventy-seventh Oscar. As Evan Bell thought before, in history, "Crash" should join the 78th Oscar and "Brokeback Mountain" to compete together, but because of the appearance of his little butterfly, "Crash" entered 2004 's playlist, and also qualified for the 77th Academy Awards.

A month ago, at the Golden Globe Awards, although "Crash" was not a big hit, it didn't get a single nomination, which was shocking; and the blockbuster "Mysterious Skin" at the Venice Film Festival also won nothing, which is embarrassing; Evan Bell took consolation that he just won a Best Original Song award for "The Notebook." However, Evan Bell did not attend the awards ceremony at the time, so it did not cause much criticism.

After the Golden Globes, the Oscars announced their nominees. In the previous awards season, "Crash", "Mysterious Skin", and "The Notebook of Love", which performed very well, once again won the favor of the Oscars and joined the competition of this movie feast as a dark horse. This nomination list has made a huge deviation from the history of the previous life.

"Crash" was one of five nominees for Best Picture, along with "The Aviator," "Life with a Glass of Wine," "Million Dollar Baby," and "Singer of Souls."

Evan Bell was nominated for the best director candidate for "Mysterious Skin", and he also became the youngest person to be nominated for the best director in Oscar history. This honor moved everyone. The original holder of this record was John Singleton, who won an Oscar nomination for best director at the age of 24 for his directorial debut "The Boys on the Block." Now, Evan Bell has shortened the record. Two years later, at the age of twenty-two years and two months, he became the new record holder. -/ --Ad full text

Tied with Evan Bell on the waiting list are Martin Scorsese, Clint Eastwood, Alexander Payne and Tyler Hackford. These four directors are the directors of the four best picture works respectively. The only difference is that Paul Haggis, who directed "Crash", failed to break through. Although "Mysterious Skin" did not enter the best picture candidate, Evan - Bell "beat" Paul Haggis and won his first Oscar nomination for best director.

In terms of Best Actor and Best Actress, Eleven Studio's three works returned empty-handed, but Leonardo DiCaprio represented Eleven Studio and won the Best Actor nomination for "The Aviator" , still not to be underestimated. But Evan Bell relied on his outstanding performance in "Crash" to win a Best Supporting Actor nomination, which is the third consecutive year Evan Bell has been nominated for acting.

"Never Give Up (n't. from "The Notebook" earned a nomination for best song, "Crash" from "In.the.deep" by Eleven Studio Philip Lawrence Also joined the competition for best song; in addition, "Mysterious Skin" took a place on the waiting list for the best soundtrack award.

"Public Enemy" was unexpectedly nominated for best visual effects, Evan Bell's "Mysterious Skin" for best adapted screenplay won, and Paul Haggis' "Million Dollar Baby" was also nominated for best screenplay. "Crash", also written by Paul Haggis, was shortlisted for Best Original Screenplay, "The Notebook" took a place in Best Cinematography, and "Crash" won A nomination for Best Editing.

In other words, Evan Bell's four works in 2004 won a total of eleven Oscar nominations, plus Leonardo DiCaprio's best actor nomination, Eleven Studios in Twelve nominations were made at the 77th Academy Awards - it must be mentioned that Paul Haggis is not from Eleven, and "Million Dollar Baby" is not Eleven's work. This is an incredible record for any studio. Among them, there are six nominations belonging to Evan Bell, covering production, director, actor, score, screenwriter and other fields, which can also be regarded as creating a new history of Oscar.

Regarding Evan Bell's popularity on the nomination list, the media generally believe that this is a good signal from the head of the academy, Frank Pearson, to Evan Bell. In the past two years, although the entanglement between Evan Bell and the academy has ceased to be the focus of the topic, people still often use it as a source of conversation.

As we all know, the academy has always favored directors born of actors. Clint Eastwood, Mel Gibson, Kevin Costner and others are all representatives on the list of the academy. Among them, after Kevin Costner changed his career to become a director, his debut film "Dancing With Wolves" won the Oscar for Best Director Golden Man, which is definitely a myth. Actor Evan Bell first proved his prowess on Broadway, and then made a blockbuster in the director position of "Mysterious Skin". Bad impression of Evan Bell before the academy changed. Compared with Kevin Costner, Evan Bell's current performance can only be said to have just started.

This year will be Frank - Pierson's last year as head of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, and Frank - Pierson will not succeed in the general election in June. This also means that Oscar will usher in an opportunity to change the dynasty. At this critical moment, the academy extended an olive branch to the actor-turned-director Evan Bell, who was also considered by the media to be the old-fashioned forces headed by Frank Pearson, a direct signal of showing goodwill to this new-generation all-around artist. .

At the same time, it is also hoped that in the general election, the old-fashioned forces will once again suppress the new-faction forces and re-elected the chairman's position. After all, Evan Bell holds many positions such as director, actor, and screenwriter, and has positions that cannot be underestimated in various associations. The members of these three parts of the association account for more than two-thirds of the number of academics. Although Evan Bell is still young and his influence is limited, it is conceivable that his influence will continue to spread among these associations in the future, which is very impressive. The olive branch extended by Frank Pearson during the transition is also quite intriguing.

In particular, "Crash", which did not receive a single nomination at the Golden Globes, won four nominations at the Oscars, which is very rare in the entire history of the awards ceremony. If "Crash" can win, it will be the first time in history: a work that did not even get a Golden Globe nomination, but won the Oscar. And Evan Bell won the nomination for best director at the age of 22, and it is even more meaningful to be tied with the top big-name directors such as Martin Scorsese.

Of course, this is only a list of nominations. Whether Evan Bell will win the award or not, and whether Frank Pearson has really let go of Evan Bell, we will have to wait until the awards ceremony is over to know. The media is also very curious about the relationship between Evan Bell and the academics after this Oscar is over. What's more, on the nomination list, the "Aviator" who won eleven nominations and the "Million Dollar Baby" who won six nominations are also the targets of attention. The focus of the media is definitely not just Evan Bell.

In the past life, the confrontation between "Brokeback Mountain" and "Crash" at the 78th Oscars has now become the collision of "Crash" and "Million Dollar Baby". This is the two works written by Paul Haggis. Head-to-head confrontation is exciting. Evan Bell's butterfly effect has already worked, but how much hurricane the butterfly wings can cause will have to wait for the awards ceremony to kick off.

The annual Oscar is a feast for filmmakers. Although there are many critics who believe that the Oscar is becoming more and more commercialized, it is completely an American business game. The public relations strategy behind it also shows that the Oscar is no longer so simple. .

But it is undeniable that the Oscars are the most watched event in the world, and every move of the actors will receive countless attention at the awards ceremony, not to mention the red carpet before the ceremony and the Oscar night after the ceremony. No actor will miss the Oscar stage, even if its "commercial copper smell" is overwhelming. Why is this? Perhaps, because the 6,000 members of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences represent not only professionalism, but also ordinary audiences, the balance between commercialization and artistry has never been grasped by anyone. The Oscars have come to this day. Among the best The recognition it has won, even if many people don't like it, is still the most important recognition.

After the 76th Oscar's ratings have returned, the 77th Oscar is facing criticism throughout the awards season. The ratings of the Golden Globes and Grammys are not optimistic. Therefore, The Oscars, which kick off on February 27, are also under enormous pressure.

Above the Oscar ceremony, there has never been a shortage of big-name stars, but the ratings will still fluctuate, which shows that the situation is not caused by artists. Facts have also proved that the first thing that will affect the ratings is the brilliance of the awards ceremony itself, and the second is whether the works in the nomination list are attractive to the audience. To put it simply, in this year's nomination list, there are no works with the mass appeal of "The Lord of the Rings 3" last year, and the decline in ratings is obvious.

For the organizing committee, it is their most important task to effectively control the decline in ratings. God bless, I hope at least there will be more hot spots on the red carpet, such as Evan Bell, is it not difficult for him to bring a female companion to attend like the Grammys?

Evan Bell's answer is, of course.
