Chapter 40 Oscar Nominations

Entering February, the crew moved to Nevada, and as the filming progressed far ahead of schedule, Cameron made adjustments to the crew, Ryan got a two-week vacation, and returned to that, for him, full of Unfamiliar school.

For Ryan, the school is really happy and has a headache. I am happy that the school has such a star student, who can start a signboard and get more students. The headache is that he always asks for leave, which can be as short as a few weeks or as long as a few months. Fortunately, His grades have always been good, and his guardian has been generous. So far, the school has received two sponsorships worth $100,000.

Sitting in the classroom, Ryan rarely did not write or draw. He seemed to be listening to the class carefully, but in fact he was already wandering around the world.

Home Alone has gradually withdrawn from the North American theater chain and won more than 280 million US dollars at the North American box office. Although Disney has done a lot of work in private, it is almost impossible for this film to surpass The Sixth Sense. However, The No. 2 spot on the box-office charts is sure to be secure.

Entering the new year, a new awards season kicked off, with The Sixth Sense receiving a slew of nominations and awards, especially for himself, winning Best of the Best at both the Chicago Film Critics Association and the Golden Globes. Supporting Actor nominations and even the Young Star Awards gave him a big cap for Best Young Actor.

Of course, he did not attend all these awards, and Jinsili did all of them on his behalf, otherwise he would have to die of exhaustion.

Frankly speaking, he doesn't pay attention to other awards except the Oscar, even the Golden Globe Award is no exception.

Although in North America, the Golden Globe Award is the only film award after the Oscar, it has always been criticized for being shady. He doesn't want to get involved in it. Besides, Pie Kingsley and Harvey Weinstein almost All the attention was devoted to Oscar's PR.

Yes, the Oscars are fair, but they are not unaffected. Of course, the influence here is not about stuffing money or engaging in shady scenes. It is asking for death. It really violates the bottom line of the film academy. They don't mind throwing you in front of the public. , in order to show their fairness and justice.

You must know that many of the judges of the academy have not even seen the nominated film before voting, and those who can find a clip to watch it are already responsible, so what is the basis for their voting?

Media reports and comments from well-known film critics!

There is no doubt that the closer the film is to the awards season, the more advantageous it is. In this regard, The Sixth Sense will undoubtedly be at a disadvantage.

But with the popularity of Home Alone, he once again became the focus of the media, and even The Sixth Sense was pulled out by many media, and compared with this purely funny movie, it was done for him. A free promotion.

These are definitely not enough. As early as before and after the new year, the PR battle of The Sixth Sense has already started. Ryan and Miramax jointly funded and bought a full twelve pages of Vanity Fair and The Hollywood Reporter. , began to build momentum for The Sixth Sense, and he gave the Los Angeles Times an exclusive news that the third episode of Harry Potter will be released in March, and the other party reciprocates, and there will be more or less bias in the report.

And this month, The Sixth Sense won the American audience's vote as the favorite movie of 1990, which is another weight.

What they did is just to get Oscar nominations and get admission tickets. As for winning, it depends not only on strength, but also on luck. The Sixth Sense is another thriller, and it is innate. There are weaknesses. In Miramax's public relations plan, as long as any golden statue can be obtained, it will be a big victory.

When the school bell rang, Ryan packed his things, took out his backpack from the locker, and walked towards the school gate. Jerry and Peter caught up from behind before they went too far.

Ryan, is Harry Potter Episode 3 really coming out in March? Jerry asked.

That's right. Ryan nodded.

Then are you finished? Can you let us see first? Peter showed a pleasing smile.

It's finished.

Just when the two guys' eyes were shining, he made a helpless gesture, I have already mailed it to the publishing house, and I haven't left a manuscript.

Seeing that the two were a little dejected, Ryan sighed, Well, when I get the sample book, I can show it to you first, but it is not allowed to be passed on.

No problem! We promise!

Just as Ryan walked out of the school gate, he immediately realized that something was wrong. The flashing lights formed one after another, which seemed to be able to blind people's eyes. There were twenty or thirty reporters, just like a big green-headed fly that smelled blood. Immediately surrounded them, behind them, I don't know which strange TV station, even the TV broadcast car drove over.

He was fine himself, after all, he had experienced bigger and more chaotic scenes, but Jerry and Peter beside him were pale and trembling with fright.

Fortunately, those reporters targeted him and did not embarrass his two classmates.

Ryan, I'm Ivani from FOX TV. I want to ask how you feel about being nominated for an Oscar? The fastest reporter, although he was stopped by the security guard George who rushed out of the school, stretched out his hand. Holding the microphone, he shouted desperately.

Ryan, you were nominated for an Oscar at just eleven years old...

Oscar? Ryan seemed to understand something, then raised his voice, Quiet!

Everyone, please keep order, you are so messy, I can't hear anything. Ryan pointed to his ears, and quickly found an acquaintance, Mick Taylor of the Los Angeles Times, Mick, what is it? what's going on?

Ryan, this afternoon, the Academy of Film has just announced the nominations for the 63rd Academy Awards. The Sixth Sense has been nominated for six nominations, namely Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actress, and Best Actor. Supporting Actor, Best Original Screenplay and Best Film Editing, of which you got two nominations! Mick Taylor said in one breath.

So it is!

No wonder these guys are crazy, but he doesn't have too many surprises and strangeness, after all, this movie has also won many Oscar nominations in the past life, although he can't remember how many.

Ryan, what do you think? Someone asked impatiently.

Thank you very much for the recognition of the Film Academy, it is my honor, thank you! This sentence must be said, and this is the power of authority.

Do you think you will win?

You'll find out after the Oscars. He shrugged.

The Sixth Sense and Home Alone both made close to $300 million at the box office. How did you do that?

That's a whole team effort. Ryan wouldn't be led away by them.

In the history of the Oscars, only The Exorcist and Jaws have been nominated for Best Picture. The Sixth Sense is the third. Do you think it will achieve an unprecedented breakthrough?

Let's ask the Academy about this. Ryan rolled his eyes and wanted to tell him that the breakthrough would be next year, and the movie was called Silence of the Lambs.

Ryan, several couples have recently declared that you are their lost child...

At this moment, a group of people forced their way in, but Nicole's assistant came to pick him up. When they saw reporters blocking the door, they immediately realized that the situation was not good, and they called for support from the school.

Under the support of several male teachers, the three of Ryan got into the car, and when the car drove up the avenue, they finally let out a sigh of relief.

Sorry, Jerry, Peter, I got you involved. The two classmates were still in shock, so the boy had to pat them on the arm.

It's...it's okay.

Although they know that Ryan is a star now, there is no clear concept for children of this age group to what extent he is famous. After experiencing today's scene, they finally understand something.

Where is your home? I'll take you back first.

...

Everyone, this is Fox News' news program. Just today, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences announced the nominations for the 63rd Academy Awards. Ryan Jenkins, the Los Angeles boy who once caused a national sensation, won the title of No. Great performance in Six Senses, nominated for Best Original Screenplay and Best Supporting Actor, and now we're in front of St. John's Elementary where Ryan is attending...he's out, Ryan...

Ryan...Ryan Jenkins left the school by car after answering a few questions from reporters. Whether he can win an Oscar statuette, we will wait and see...

Natalie Hirschler stared and watched the show on TV. She couldn't tell what it was like in her heart. That annoying guy has become a dazzling star in just one year. When will he bloom? What about shining?

Nate, why are you distracted? asked the mother sitting on the other side.

Huh? Mom. Natalie pointed to the TV. I'm just happy for Ryan.

Back in her room and sitting at the desk, Natalie was a little dazed. Directly opposite her was a photo frame with a photo of her and Ryan in it. This was the photo he took in front of her house the last time he came.

In a blink of an eye, another half a year has passed, and she can only perform on the stage of the community, and he is about to appear on the big stage of the Oscars!

Not long after returning home, Ryan received many congratulatory calls, from Pie Kingsley, Touchstone Pictures, Miramax, Harvey Weinstein and so on.

It's a shame, Al, that you didn't get nominated for Best Actor, he said into the microphone.

It doesn't matter, there is always a chance. Al Pacino's mentality is indeed very good.

Similarly, Ryan also called other people to congratulate him, such as David Fincher. The director was greatly influenced by him. Not only did he change his debut film, but he also won the best director for the first time in charge of the film director. Nomination, whether this is good or bad for him, the boy can't tell.

Of course, Nicole was the happiest. She was emotional and kissed Ryan's face several times. Considering the evaluation of her by the mainstream media - her acting is as amazing as her beauty - you can understand her mood.
