Chatty Hollywood

Chapter 291 Apology (falling in love and killing each other)

"Best Cinematography Winner, Addison Young, "Sleepy Hollow"!"

With this sound, the entire "Sleepy Hollow" crew finally let out the breath they had been holding.

Although the crew has already reached a consensus and has no extravagant expectations for the performance of their own films at this Oscar, this does not mean that everyone likes to receive zero votes.

After all, seven nominations and no wins are really nothing to be proud of.

Even if it can be used to create hype in the future and make Oscar "owe a trophy", after so many years, does Oscar still "owe a few trophies"?

Not to mention, the last "Shawshank Redemption" is a typical example?

Even though the media has blown it to the sky now, decades later, when people look back at the 1995 Oscars, the one they will remember will be "Forrest Gump."

As for "The Shawshank Redemption"?

Maybe at that time it can use the peripheral market such as video tapes to recoup its own production costs! ?

The "owed" trophy is, after all, a trophy owed, not a trophy received.

Like Wall Street, Hollywood is a winner-take-all place. In the competition for trophies, only first place is the real victory. As for second place, it is actually not much different from no place.

Therefore, after hearing that the crew's cinematographer Addison Young won the award, the entire crew, including director Charlotte, actor Depp and others applauded.

This is both a relief and a congratulation.

After all, in technical categories, best photography is important.

Addison Young himself was even more excited. He hugged everyone one by one. He was surprisingly strong and even spun around when he hugged Miranda Richardson, who plays Katrina's stepmother.

Everyone laughed in understanding.

And Mr. Photographer’s excitement is not over yet——

After taking the stage to receive the statuette, which symbolizes honor, he first thanked a series of people as usual, including Charlotte, Lao Qiang and others, and then changed the topic,

"...Finally, I would also like to express my special thanks to director James Cameron!"

This sentence suddenly silenced the entire ceremony.

People who are not familiar with Addison Young are curious about the relationship between Mr. Photographer and the money-burning master Cameron, while those who know the inside story, such as Charlotte, have the urge to cover their faces.

——This guy is obviously floating! If you say this on this occasion...

Well, it seems like nothing. Maybe the organizers of the Oscars will also like it.

Can it increase the ratings?

Anyway, Charlotte thinks this guy Addison is going to make big news!

The fact was as he expected——

"When we were filming "Piranha 2", our entire crew did not give trust and respect to James, who was the director at the time. In the end, we made a bad movie, and James warned us that we would accomplish nothing if we continued like this. of."

"In fact, for many years after that, I did achieve nothing, while James' career was booming. I once thought this was James' curse, but in fact, it was just an excuse for me not to work hard."

"I didn't start working hard again until I was filming 'The Turn' with director Charlotte Booth. That's when I really understood my feelings."

"Now, standing here, I feel that I am finally qualified to say sorry to Director James Cameron!"

"James, I'm sorry!"

"Bah bang bang!"

Thunderous applause erupted throughout the ceremony.

"...Is this an apology or a provocation?"

Charlize was not very clear about Addison Yang's history, and now that she heard the latter tell it from her own mouth, the girl was a little stunned.

While clapping along with the crowd, she asked this question to Charlotte with some confusion.

"It's both!"

Charlotte said while applauding,

"Although Addison does feel that he did something wrong back then and owes Cameron an apology, on the other hand,

He also has a strong sense of competition with Cameron..."

"So, this is what you call "falling in love and killing each other"?"

Charlize said a word that Charlotte had said to her.

Charlotte shook her head,

"At best, it can only be regarded as unilateral to Addison. Cameron does not have this awareness of him."

"All right!"

Charlize felt a little bored,

"But why does everyone have to applaud? Can't there be some other reaction?"

"How else can I react? Now all I can do is smile and applaud!"

Charlotte curled her lips,

"Addison's story is simply a favorite among American audiences - it combines the three elements of a prodigal son, heroes cherish each other, and celebrity anecdotes. I think it won't be long before someone will adapt this story into a movie script. !”

"So exaggerated!?"

Charlize was startled by the prospect Charlotte described, and then she realized,

"The person who adapted the story into a movie script couldn't be you, right?"

"How can it be?"

Charlotte laughed awkwardly,

"If I wanted to do this, I would have done it long ago. Do I still have to wait until today?"

"Right!"

Charlize nodded, then thought of a question,

"Speaking of which, how do you think those media reporters will report this matter?"

""I have worked hard for fifteen years just to say sorry to you"?"

Charlotte shook her head, a little dissatisfied with the overly gay title she chose.

Beside him, Charlize was looking around,

“Isn’t James Cameron coming to this year’s Oscars?”

"It's true that he didn't come!"

Charlotte smiled;

"Cameron had no works published last year, and there was no nomination for this year's Oscar. In this case, it doesn't make sense to come to the Oscars to join in the fun - at least for him who is already famous. "

"Then do you think he can hear Addison's "confession" now?"

"How did I know this?"

Charlotte glanced at the girl, but did not correct her choice of words. Her thoughts had already turned to other directions——

Now, James Cameron should be building his "big ship" in Mexico, right?

Do you want to go take a look?

Speaking of which, ever since I traveled to this world, I have been busy catching ghosts and making movies. It has been more than two years in a flash!

——Should we wait for the post-production of "The Sixth Sense" to be completed and then take a vacation to rest?

Thinking of this, Charlotte looked at Charlize sitting next to him,

"Sally, you've almost finished filming "The Devil's Advocate", right?"

The girl nodded.

"Then do you want to go on vacation with me?"

"Vacation?"

Charlize was stunned. She was about to nod in agreement when she heard the winner of the next award announced on the stage——

"Best Art Direction, Sleepy Hollow, Rick Heinrichs!"

PS1: "Apology" is a 2009 domestic film that is not very famous. PS2: Although "The Shawshank Redemption" is famous, it was indeed a box office flop, and it took many years to recoup its costs through video tapes and DVDs. PS3: Actually, the order of the Oscars in 1996 was not like this. The male and female protagonists were at the end. I wrote this for the sake of writing space. Everyone can understand it as parallel space or butterfly effect. PS4: I don’t know how the character Addison Young makes you feel until now. Is this a love-in-love affair? PS5: Actually, when I first named this person, I thought of Teacher Chen through the photographer. I remember that Teacher Chen’s English name seemed to be Addison!
