Chapter 1226 Grand slam, the king is coming! (Seeking the moon
The Best Director Award has always been the most important of all the Harvey Awards, and this year's nomination list is definitely the most terrifying in history. Basically, Hollywood's top directors have been included. Just look at the list, the big names on it will make you feel dizzy.
In fact, if you think about it, the reason is very simple. This year, major Hollywood film companies have launched their own main blockbusters, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, they are overwhelmed, and all famous directors are also grinding their hands. This situation is an opportunity for Hollywood film companies, and for these directors, it is even more an opportunity.
This has led to the emergence of good movies this year, and the final nomination for the Best Director Award is naturally very considerable.
So when the Best Foreign Language Awards ended, the host stood up without giving any explanation, and then the audience stood up, followed by thunderous applause, which shocked the entire auditorium.
"Then please come on stage with the nominated director." Chaplin, as the host, made a gesture of inviting. A group of directors in the audience walked into the passage and lined up, and then walked towards the podium together.
Stenberg, Dunar, William Wheeler, Zinerman, Griffith, Visconti, Liu Berchen, Hitchcock, Sjostraum, King Victor, Robert Bresson, John Houston, Strauheng, Victor Fleming, and I, so many people have made the podium full of crowds. Since its establishment, the Harvey Award has never seen such a spectacular scene. Such a scene also makes the atmosphere in the Grand Theater suddenly tense and makes people feel heartbroken.
"Ladies and gentlemen, this year's Best Director Award is the most competitive one I have ever seen in my life. Now, please invite Mrs. Edison to reveal it to us one by one." Chaplin turned around and invited Edison's wife.
The death of Edison is a major event in the American film industry this year. In order to show respect for the father of American film, the jury specially invited Edison's wife to announce the most important award, which is also a careful planning.
The old woman walked up tremblingly, stood up, and tore open the first envelope.
"The 1932 Harvey Award for Best Director Award, after fierce discussions in the jury committee, three Silver Feather Awards and one Golden Feather Award were finally set up." After Mrs. Edison's words were said, the audience was silent and silent.
The awards are set up in this way, probably as expected by many people. Compared with the previous few sessions, the three silver feather awards and one golden feather award are obviously a lot of places, but for so many nominated directors this year, it is extremely scarce.
There are so many excellent movies, but only four movies can win this award. The result is fierce and cruel. Everyone held their breath and waited for Mrs. Edison to say the next sentence.
"The first place to win the award for Best Director Yinyu was... David Griffith. "Titanic" DreamWorks Film Company." Mrs. Edison's first award was announced. It still continues the myth of DreamWorks.
From the opening to the present, every award finally appears is the name of DreamWorks. There is no exception.
There was overwhelming applause in the Grand Theater. People expressed their love for Griffith and the movie in this way.
"The movie "Titanic" opened up the era of Hollywood blockbusters. It is a grand film and an extremely detailed film. They allow us to see the beauty of human nature. They allow us to see that even in the face of disasters, human beings will rely on great love to reach the other side of life. Such a movie makes people's souls tremble!" The jury committee gave a very high evaluation of "Titanic".
Griffith walked out of the queue and came to Taiwan Central to receive the award. The directors around him had very complicated expressions on their faces. On the one hand, they were all happy for Griffith, and on the other hand, they were all extremely nervous.
"The second place to win the award for Best Director Yin Yu is... Robert Bresson, DreamWorks Film Company!" The second award is still won by DreamWorks. At this time, the DreamWorks array was completely crazy.
"The Diary of a Country Pastor is the most quiet and purest movie ever made in Hollywood. This movie has no grand scenes or mysterious and complex plots, but it is a monument to an art movie. It represents the highest achievement of Hollywood art movies and is a classic!"
The review committee's evaluation of "Diary of a Rural Pastor" made Buliesson burst into tears.
When Muno died, almost no one would think that this young man could take over Muno's artistic banner and push DreamWorks art films forward. But now, just one or two years later, the young Bresson has conquered the entire Hollywood with his efforts and his talents. He used his films to prove to everyone that he could not only take over Muno's banner, but also put this banner to the highest peak of art films.
In my opinion, "The Diary of a Country Pastor" is indeed the top work of Hollywood art films. It is as pure as a piece of crystal without any impurities, reflecting the image of the whole world and making people think about life. Few people in Hollywood can shoot such a movie.
It is truly worthy of Bresson's reputation for winning such honors.
Mrs. Edison seemed to have no intention of stopping, and it seemed that she was more eager than anyone else to know the result.
"The third best director Yinyu Award is...oh, my God!" After seeing the list, Mrs. Edison covered her mouth in surprise.
Her expression also made the theater silent. People stared at her, not knowing what was going on.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the third director to win the Silver Feather Award for Best Director is...Stenburg, Pirates of the Caribbean, DreamWorks Films!"
"Long live!"
"victory!"
There are so many excellent Hollywood movies this year that these directors no longer expect the Golden Feather Award. It is already their greatest pride to win the Silver Feather Award. But now, all three Silver Feather Awards have been won by DreamWorks, which means they have no gains.
When Mrs. Edison announced the third best director Yin Yu award, all the directors on the stage turned around and turned their eyes to me.
At this time, not only them, but almost everyone in the Grand Theater focused on me.
The highest award of the Harvey Award, the Best Director Golden Feather Award, seemed to have been accused of by people at this time.
Among these directors on stage, there was only one person who seemed very dissatisfied. Alfred Hitchcock, he looked at me, his eyes wide open, like a wolf, but the result was not revealed. He would never lose hope. This is his character.
"I'll announce the winner of the Best Director Golden Feather Award at this Harvey Awards." Mrs. Edison's hands trembled. She tore open the envelope and read it word by word: "The winner of the Best Director Golden Feather Award in 1932 is...I think we will continue to cheer for DreamWorks! Andre Corleon. "The Godfather" series!"
"Corion!"
"Corion!"
"Corion!"
The entire Grand Theater, with thousands of people, broke out almost at the same time.
Plop! Hitchcock, who was standing not far away from me, fainted on the stage with his eyes rolling.
"Since its establishment, Hollywood has dedicated countless movies to society in decades, and tens of thousands of excellent movies have emerged. If we choose the movies that best represent Hollywood level from so many movies, it is undoubtedly Mr. Corleon's "Godfather" series. They are movies in movies and represent the highest level of Hollywood movies! Mr. Corleon created miracles because no one believes that such movies are shot by people, and only the hand of God can create such miracles!"
The evaluation of the "Godfather" series given by the review committee is definitely the highest evaluation ever.
Amid cheers and applause, I walked over and received the heavy Golden Feather Trophy.
"It seems that this Harvey Award is really going to become an internal commendation meeting for DreamWorks Films!" When I returned to my seat, Malskolov said this sentence blankly. "God, God, how is it possible! Is DreamWorks really going to win all the awards? This is impossible! This is impossible!" Kerry Rockefeller shouted loudly.
The bosses of major film companies are all looking like earth. Although some people don’t believe it, most people have made such mental preparations. Because there is still the last official award of the Harvey Awards that has not been announced: the Best Documentary Award. There seems to be no doubt about this award. Flahadi’s strength is obvious to all among documentary filmmakers. If Flahadi wins the Golden Feather Award, it obviously marks that DreamWorks has completed an unprecedented winning victory this time!
"Ladies and gentlemen, let's announce the last official award." Chaplin couldn't wait.
The last award was soon announced, the Best Documentary Award, won by Robert Flahady without dispute.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have to announce that a miracle was born! A miracle was born! A miracle that had never happened before and was unlikely to happen after it was born! All the official awards of the 1932 Harvey Awards were collected by DreamWorks Film Company. I think we will cheer for the DreamWorks people!" As Hollywood mayor Grant ran to the podium with excitement, shouting loudly and waving his arms.
"Dreamworks!"
"Dreamworks!"
"In the DreamWorks China Grand Theater, heat waves rolled, and cheers hit people's bodies and souls like waves, making everyone tremble.
People seem to not pay attention to the following awards. The Lifetime Achievement Award was awarded to Adolf Chuck in recognition of his contributions to Hollywood Film Company.
At the end of the award ceremony, at Grant's request, I took all the members of DreamWorks to the podium.
At this moment, the huge China Grand Theater has completely become a stage in DreamWorks!
He won all the official awards at once and completed the winning goal without missing a single one. Even we had never thought of such a result!
At this moment, on the podium representing the highest honor of Hollywood movies, DreamWorks people all held their heads high and enjoyed the honors they won!
The magnificent DreamWorks factory standard music started. When this music was first played, DreamWorks was just a small film company that was overlooked, but now it has become the absolute king of Hollywood!
This moment belongs to DreamWorks. If DreamWorks has relied on its own strength to become the leader among major Hollywood film companies, then this time, DreamWorks has completely conquered this land with its contributions and achievements in the movie.
This moment is like the moment of a king’s crown! At this time, there are so many honors!
MGM, Paramount, Warner Bros., 20th Century Fox... members of these film companies in the Red Dragon League cheered for DreamWorks' achievements, although they did not win any awards. But as friends, they would be happy to see DreamWorks' such glory.
The people from Leidianhua Film Company left the stage in shame. They carried Hitchcock who had fainted and bowed their heads out of the China Grand Theater. They were also from Columbia and Fox Film Company with them.
At this moment, I think everyone can understand the mood of these people. For them, from this day on, the banner of freedom will be rushing in a more uplifting manner on the Hollywood sky, and the Rockefeller Consortium's ambition for Hollywood can only become their fantasy.
The next cocktail party completely became a sea of joy. Dreamworks people were surrounded by groups of people, and the light of flashes was everywhere.
"Andre, after this night, Hollywood will completely become the world of DreamWorks!" Marskolov patted my shoulder and smiled.
"Yes. Old Ma, our land is old. When we were young, we were so arrogant. We think MGM and Paramount will always be the king of Hollywood. But now, the new land king has arrived. Our era is over." Adolf Chuck looked at Marskolov, and the two of them laughed at the same time. That night was a sleepless night. The Chinese Grand Theater was crowded with people, Hollywood cheered, Los Angeles were brightly lit, and the whole United States was immersed in carnival.
Such moments have never been heard before. The news of DreamWorks' Grand Slam was quickly spread throughout every corner of the United States through television and radio, completely immersing the country in excitement.
The cocktail party ended, it was already early in the morning. When I returned to the company headquarters, the phone number in the office was almost blown up.
Many people opened the phone to congratulate DreamWorks on achieving such achievements. Those European colleagues sent telegrams, with overwhelming praise.
On the first day of 1933, major media in the United States, almost the same photo was posted on the front page: I brought the DreamWorks people to thank them on stage, and all the official trophys of the 1932 Harvey Awards were in our hands!
"The era of kings is coming!" The Washington Post used such a title to express their attitude towards this matter.
"Last night, we witnessed the birth of a miracle, which can only be realized through the hands of God! DreamWorks Film Company actually won all the official trophys of this Harvey Award. Such achievements are definitely unprecedented!"
"Before, we always said that the Harvey Awards are the place of honor for DreamWorks. This film company, from scratch to childhood, has gone through a rough but full of honor. Its development process is dazzling, so that every time the Harvey Awards ceremony, we are no longer discussing whether DreamWorks can win awards, but how many trophies it can win."
"Before, although DreamWorks always had the largest number of trophies every time, all witnesses, including filmmakers from major film companies, did not feel anything special. Until today, when all the awards were won by DreamWorks, we realized that the era of kings has begun!"
"Since its establishment, Hollywood has been a scattered place. I don't know how many film companies have been born on this land. I only know that film companies are born every day and film companies go bankrupt every day. Over the years, the chaos that Hollywood has begun to begin has slowly merged. Small companies either go bankrupt or are swallowed up, and the next thing they shout is a louder one by one."
"And among all the companies, the last king is DreamWorks! Such a super existence has made the entire Hollywood completely his glory. We must realize this point, that is, the existence of DreamWorks has greatly promoted the development of Hollywood's film industry. It can be said that without DreamWorks, there would definitely be no glory of Hollywood today. We will not have audio movies, no color movies, and more importantly, we will lose many excellent classics!"
"The development process of Hollywood is very similar to the rise of Wall Street consortiums. When the capital was primitive and fierce, there were small companies and factories everywhere. After generations of efforts and year after year of development, large consortiums were finally born, and Wall Street became the master of the United States."
"The rise of DreamWorks is exactly the same as the rise of the consortium. The era of kings has arrived, and the Grand Slam of the Harvey Award is the biggest sign!"
The Washington Post greatly appreciated all the awards from DreamWorks to win the Harvey Award, and has made a deep digging into this phenomenon.
In addition, there are far more than this media because of this incident.
Chapter completed!
