From the Emmy Awards to Toronto, from Telluride to Sundance, from the "Pacific War" to "Buried alive" and then to "Love Is Crazy", in just six months, Lanly completed an incredible triple jump , Like a comet hitting the earth, was born in a dazzling and dazzling posture. Amidst the praise, he nominated the first Oscar in his career!

At this time, Lan Li was only 21 years old.

When people revisited the nominations of the actor department for this year’s Oscars, they found that the collective advantage of "Generation Y" has arrived, but it is far from being rendered so strong by the media. The strong rise of the new generation has encountered American film art and science. The sullen head and stick of the courtyard passed by like an autumn breeze.

Fourteen-year-old Hailee Steinfeld, twenty-year-old Jennifer Lawrence, thirty-year-old Michelle Williams, twenty-nine-year-old Natalie Portman, this is the fourth in the actress department. Nominees.

Twenty-seven-year-old Jesse Katzenberg and 21-year-old Renly Hall are the two nominees for the actor department.

Among the twenty nominated seats for the protagonist and supporting role, the "y generation" occupies six seats. Such momentum has created the best record since the 21st century, but it is still slightly inferior to the Golden Globe Awards.

Even the actress department is no exception.

In the supporting actress department that always likes to award young actresses, only Haili was the only one who was upset and shortlisted; then the heroine department with an average age of 37 years old, not to mention, this year there can be three less than 30 years old. The actress won the nomination, which is the lowest average age in the past ten years.

Then, the average age of the award-winning actor is forty-three years old, and the supporting actor who has become a nursing home, not to mention it. After entering the Oscar nomination list, only two "Gen Y" actors appeared on the list, which is far from the strong momentum throughout the awards season.

It was like a pot of boiling water poured into the thick snow. This result is really disappointing.

In fact, for real professionals, they are not surprised at all, or even taken for granted, completely expected.

Where there are people, there is a tendency, even Oscar is no exception. With more than 6,000 judges, Oscar has been as fair and authoritative as possible, but bias is still inevitable. Oscar, after all, is still an awards ceremony belonging to Hollywood.

In history, controversy about Oscars has never ceased.

For example, whites occupy the absolute protagonist, and the minorities represented by blacks, Latinos, and Asians are always disadvantaged groups, not to mention that there is still no Chinese who can win the nomination of major departments.

For another example, women occupy an absolute disadvantage. No female director in history won the best director award until 2010.

For example, young actors are almost ignored and the nomination stage is extremely difficult. When it is the turn of the actresses, it is the older practitioners who face similar dilemmas, even if they are strong.

Soon after, in 2012, after the "artist" won the Oscar for Best Picture in a controversial manner, the Academy awarded the best film to works that were conservative, stable, and tribute to the golden age for two consecutive years, which aroused the public. The frenzy of questioning, the disappointment of Oscars, and even aroused complaints from many practitioners in the industry.

Against this background, the "Los Angeles Times" stepped forward and conducted a professional investigation.

Only then did people discover that the American Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has never officially announced the specific list of its members. Because the membership is a lifetime membership, there are many members who are no longer in the film industry. Among the voters, there are many nannies and bookstore owners. And the recruiters of the retired peacekeeping force are laughable.

The “Los Angeles Times” went deep into the industry. It also read Oscar’s publications, resumes, autobiography, etc. through telephone, email, and subscription to “Variety Show” and “Hollywood Reporter”. It also sent a large number of reporters to conduct in-depth interviews. The true identities of more than 5,100 judges were confirmed.

After the statistics were over, the results caused a shock in the media, and for the first time let people glimpse the truth about Oscar.

According to calculations, the average age of the Oscar judges is 62, only 2% of the judges are younger than 40, and 54% are older than 60. Among them, there are hundreds of members of the Academy, who have not participated in any film or TV production for more than 20 or even 30 years.

In addition to this, the Academy has a total of fifteen chapters, including actors, screenwriters, directors, producers, photographers, etc.

First of all, from the perspective of race and color, some clubs are almost all white men. In each club, the proportion of whites exceeds 90%; the only exception is the actor club, where the proportion of whites is 88%. In the management branch, 98% of the members are white.

Secondly, in terms of gender, in the main Oscar selection department, except for the actor branch, the proportion of men is more than 90%; even more frightening is that the hospital has a total of 43 board members and only six women. , And there is only one member of colored people.

Of course, this is a question left over from history. After all, the Oscars have come to the 83rd. Before the 1980s, the historical status of blacks and women also determined the foundation of the members of the Academy. As for the completely ignored Asians, even more. Not much. In the past ten years, the hospital has begun to consciously absorb more fresh blood in order to increase the diversity of the Oscar judges.

For example, Zhang/Zi/Yi opened the U.S. market with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in 2000, and later dedicated several good works, and even relied on "Geisha/Memoirs" to win the most. Although she was nominated for the leading actress, she was invited to be a member of the judges of the Academy.

Since 2004, the hospital has begun to announce the list of people invited to join the conference. However, they will not make further announcements on who has joined and who has declined.

After ten years of precipitation, the composition of the judges of the courtyard has changed slightly. Eighty-nine percent are white and 73 percent are men. But ethnic minorities and female members are still disadvantaged groups.

The single nature of the members led to a single perspective and a single point of view. It also made the Oscar's annual award trend traceable, and then "Little Golden Snipers" such as the Weinstein brothers appeared.

It’s not surprising that "Brokeback Mountain" lost to "Crash" in 2005; so far, only four female directors have won the best director nomination. This year, there are 20 seats in the actor department plus five in the director department. It’s no surprise that all seats are white, and blacks are absent collectively.

Every three to five, Oscars will face accusations of "too white", or if a bold and innovative work such as "social network" is cold, this is all traceable. Changing history can not be done by relying solely on the power of a single work. of. Even though the Oscar is currently the most highly regarded and authoritative awards ceremony in the world, it does not mean that it is the most fair. It still has its own attributes.

This year is no exception.

"Generation Y" actors have risen across the board. The so-called Generation Y refers to the generation born between 1977 and 1990. Now the oldest is only 33 years old. In the eyes of judges with an average age of 62, But the children and grandchildren, such as the fourteen-year-old Haili, are all granddaughters.

They always think that these actors can still be polished and polished. These actors still have a lot of time to grow slowly. These actors are far from becoming the pillars. These actors still need to continue to prove themselves. These actors still have a lot of time to grow up. Not worthy of the Oscar's recognition, these actors still need to follow behind them to get used to.

As a result, only four actresses and two actors won the nomination. This is Oscar.

Among them, Michelle and Natalie, who have already proven themselves before, won the nomination again and successfully established themselves in the eyes of the judges of the Academy; Hailey and Jesse benefited from the work more or less Strong, received more attention, riding on the east wind, strong into the decisive stage, the future development remains to be seen.

However, Jennifer and Renly are different.

These two actors hardly got any bonus advantage~www.novelhall.com~ completely relying on their own strength, they made a **** road down to earth; especially the two were only twenty and twenty-one years old respectively. , Who seems to be an actor of the "Sun" generation, is able to overcome all disadvantages and receive nominations. This is too precious and enough to make a standing applause!

The 2010 awards season was divided into two distinct areas with the announcement of the Oscar nominations as the dividing line, and the format suddenly began to change.

Especially in the best actor department, it was originally a young man who encircled and suppressed Colin Firth, but now it has become evenly matched. The three old play bones against the two young forces immediately become interesting.

In addition to Colin, the award winning momentum of the other four candidates has soared. Jeff and Havel’s threats from Colin cannot be underestimated; Jesse, who holds the sword of "social network", is always a strong candidate, who I don't know if this movie will achieve a counterattack in the next month and a half; and the blue gift, who has thrown off his hands and feet, carries the momentum of Sundance, and is coming aggressively.

It is worth mentioning that Focus Films suffered a heavy loss during the nomination stage. "The kids are all well" only received four nominations, best picture, best actress, best supporting actor, best original screenplay, advantages Lost, has been left behind by a lot of competitors; "Buried alive" alone was shortlisted for the best actor contest, and other departments have no chance at all.

Under such circumstances, Focus Films has focused its firepower on the battle for the best actress and best actor. All public relations resources have begun to tilt here. Whether it is Annette or Renly, they have their own disadvantages, but There are also obvious advantages, and it is not yet known who will win.

This year's awards season has entered the second stage vigorously! ()
