Chapter 158 Golden Globe Awards

Adrian returned to Los Angeles on January 18. Originally, he wanted to stay in Krakow for two more days, because the 1:1 model of the Auschwitz concentration camp had been built, and Spielberg was planning to move to Krakow. Shooting over there. But he had to give up follow-up and return to Los Angeles, because almost a month later, the Golden Globe Awards ceremony will be held at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills on January 20.

Last year he didn't go to the Golden Globe Awards because he didn't declare any awards at all, and this year, except for a few special awards, almost all nominations have Bosworth Films, so it's impossible not to go.

The first Golden Globe Awards was held in 1994. At the beginning, there was no awards ceremony. Basically, the person in charge called a press conference to announce the list of winners. Later, as the status of the Oscars was further established, the Golden Globes, who were unwilling to be lonely, also began to hold an awards ceremony, but it is more suitable to say that it is not so much an awards ceremony as an awards dinner.

Compared with the tradition of awarding Oscars in theaters, the Golden Globe Awards chose a hotel as its own venue, and set up several rows of round tables in the largest and most gorgeous hall, allowing the participants to taste the food and whisper softly after the award ceremony. Whispered conversation is also a good thing, although it is not like the Oscars where thousands of people come to the scene, but everyone present has a certain status in Hollywood, which is also a sight.

"What's the matter, Kate? What's on your mind?" After greeting the members of the "Pulp Fiction" crew at the nearby table, Adrian turned around and noticed that Kate's face was a little strange.

"No, it's nothing." Kate shook her head, forced a smile to make herself appear normal, a light gray evening dress with thin shoulders made her look very elegant, and the necklace on her neck made her even more Added a luxury.

"No, no, you must have something on your mind like this, don't try to lie to me." Adrian clapped his hands as he spoke, and suddenly thought of something and looked at her with meaningful eyes: "It's because I struck up a conversation with Julie just now gone?"

"What does this have to do with... what does this have to do with Julie?" Kate stammered with her eyes wide open.

"Is it okay? When I came back from talking with her, didn't you..." Adrian grinned and gestured, and then looked at Julia who was sitting at a round table not far away, "We just interact with each other Say hello."

Julia, who was wearing a light platinum gold evening dress with thin shoulders and big waves, seemed to notice something immediately, and then turned her head away. When she saw that it was Adrian, she immediately rolled her eyes again, shook her head and twisted back.

"Oh, really, you actually treated me like this." Adrian complained, "I was just joking."

Well, it was just a very vague hint that her mouth was very charming, but she didn't expect her to recognize it.

Seeing Adrian's innocent face, Kate couldn't help but chuckled, and tugged at the corner of his clothes: "Okay, Ed, it's not because of Julie, I just..."

"Not Julie? Who could it be?" Adrian quickly interrupted her, obviously intending to take this opportunity to tease her once, but just as he turned his head away, he met the eyes of Drew on the other side Come on, although "The Flowers of Gambler" is an independent film, it was invested and distributed by Bosworth Films, so the seats of their crew are not far from "Howard's End" and "Pulp Fiction".

Drew immediately gave him a wink. A bright red one-shoulder silk evening dress made her look very gorgeous. Her legs were crossed and curled up. Although the exposed calf was not beautiful enough, it was not alluring. In particular, the feet in pointed high-heeled shoes deliberately pointed up and down at him, giving people a provocative feeling.

It's really bold. Adrian shook his head inwardly. Although she made this action very covertly, this place is a public place after all. Then again, she wouldn't have done that at the "Jurassic Park" premiere if she hadn't been daring.

Well, that's not the point. The point is that Kate is by her side at this time, and she can clearly see Drew's movements. Glancing at her, her expression changed a little. Just at this moment, Monica's chuckle came from the adjacent table again.

As one of the nominated actors for the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actress, Monica will naturally not fail to participate. This is her first performance award nomination. Naturally, she also sat in the crew of "Pulp Fiction" next to "Howards End", and could clearly see every move of Adrian and Kate.

She is wearing a black deep V-neck backless evening dress today. The exposed part of her towering breasts is just right, coupled with her careful dressing, she looks particularly sexy and seductive.

But Adrian didn't care about admiring it now, and after a sneaky glance at Monica, he gave up the idea of ​​continuing to tease, grabbed Kate's hand and patted: "Okay, I know what you're thinking."

He looked at her and asked seriously: "Is it because I didn't clarify your identity to the reporter when I came in before?"

"I..." Kate opened her mouth but said nothing, just turned her head to the side.

"I wanted to make a joke at the time, but I didn't expect to run into Tim and the others again, so I said a few words and came in directly. May I apologize? After the awards ceremony is over, I promise to introduce you to them." Adrian said in a soft tone, showing sincerity with a faint smile.

"No, Ed, I just..." Kate hurriedly turned her head to try to explain, but she immediately became embarrassing when she met Adrian's insightful eyes.

"Okay, that's it, it's settled." Adrian held Kate's hand and squeezed it to stop her from speaking, "The awards are about to start, let's talk about everything after the end."

After finishing speaking, he glanced around. As the host came on stage, everyone turned their attention to the stage, Julia and Drew were no exception. Only Monica looked up with her face in her hands, but Adrian could feel her gaze resting on himself and Kate with an indescribable resentment.

There is nothing to say about the presentation of the Golden Globe Awards, because it is a dinner party, so there are a lot of entertainment programs in the middle, but the Golden Globe Awards is different from Cannes after all, there is an excellent host to enliven the atmosphere, and he often amuses the guests with witty remarks Laughing, there is no dull feeling at all.

Lavern didn't guarantee anything like he was nominated before-this is not surprising, even if the judges were influenced and biased, they would not give a positive answer. Firstly, who will be awarded is not determined by a judge, even if most people are affected, they will not reveal it to each other; secondly, if a positive answer is given, it is tantamount to a secret operation, and no one will be so stupid .

Even so, the winners basically did not meet Adrian's expectations. The best supporting actors and actresses in drama films were awarded to Al Pacino and Emma Thompson respectively, while the best director was awarded to "Unforgivable" Clint Eastwood—the biggest opponent that Adrian mentioned at the beginning is this old man who has made achievements in both actor and director. His qualifications are much older than Adrian. The gap is not even Two movies can be erased.

However, the best feature film was awarded to "Scent of a Woman", and it was Laverne who went up to accept the award. American film awards are basically awarded to film companies rather than directors.

Naturally, the Best Supporting Actress was awarded to Drew Barrymore. When she went up to accept the award, she was so excited that she could hardly speak. As for whether it was from the heart or acting, it was hard to say. Although this is the most important award she has received since she starred in a movie, her parents' names are impressively on the thank you list.

Everyone knows that what Drew hates most is her parents. Her father has never cared about her, and her mother has always regarded her as a cash cow. She expressed all these in her autobiography the year before last. Under normal circumstances, even if most people don't like their parents, they won't mention these things in their speeches, but Drew not only mentioned them but also expressed his gratitude... There should be no other explanation except for the performance. This is normal, every actor will perform when they win the award, there is no exception, because they have to maintain their image and show their personality depends on the occasion.

Of course, there should be excitement from the heart, but excellent actors will restrain and adjust, so that the excitement can be properly revealed, these are the needs of communication. For example, when Drew thanked the producer, he stopped his eyes on Adrian for about five seconds, but in the end he didn't say "Thank you Adrian".

Adrian also noticed this, and immediately applauded like most people to express his congratulations, but after the applause, he went to comfort Monica. Although Monica realized that she was unlikely to win the award after Adrian's detailed analysis, she was still a little bit disappointed when the award presenter pronounced Drew's name, and people around her comforted her. An also took this opportunity to step forward and say a few words.

Monica, who quickly adjusted, didn't say much, just shook hands with Adrian, and then glanced between him and Kate with a half-smile expression.

"Why does Monica look a little strange?" Kate couldn't help asking in a low voice when Adrian sat back.

"It's nothing, she didn't take it to heart." Adrian did not say anything more perfunctory.

After the award ceremony, it was time for the dinner party. Although the food was exquisite and rich, few people could get enough to eat, and everyone basically tasted it. This is the same as the Oscar banquet. It is a more open public place with reporters and media. No one wants to show up on the newspaper or TV the next day when they are wolfing down at the dinner party. This is not a place for show. place to eat.

So after the dinner, many people would avoid the reporters and go out for dinner in twos and threes. Adrian took this opportunity to invite many people to the party. "Scent of a Woman" won the Golden Globe Award for Best Dramatic Film, of course To celebrate, but not in the hotel, but in Adrian's villa. ()
