Chapter 211 210. Who won the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress?

"Feifei, it's time for Best Screenplay. Eric has two nominations."

"Got it, Auntie. I'll be there right away."

At Zhou Wenqiong's call, Liu Yifei hurriedly walked to the sofa and sat down. There was a wrinkled facial mask on her face. It was obvious that she left in too much of a hurry and had not yet tidied herself up.

"I just left for a few minutes. Weren't they just presenting awards for TV dramas? How come it happened so quickly!"

"Nicole Kidman is the award presenter. This woman is not a good person." Liu Xiaoli said with a cold snort.

Zhou Wenqiong thought that although Nicole Kidman and Eric were rumored to be in a relationship, at least it had not been confirmed.

But you really have slept with him, I don’t know how many times, and you have the nerve to talk about others.

But maybe it was because she had slept with Eric that she hated other women who were nice to him, except her own daughter.

Zhou Wenqiong said, "Nicole Kidman is not bad either. This is a good sign, isn't it?"

"What are you talking about, Auntie?"

"Feifei, do you remember the Emmy Awards? When Eric won the Best Screenplay Award, it was Nicole Kidman who presented the award. Maybe the association wants to replicate that tonight."

"You never know. What if it's just a smokescreen, deliberately designed to confuse people?" Liu Xiaoli poured a basin of cold water on him.

"Mom, how can you be like this! Why don't you want Eric to win the award?"

"No, I don't. Whether he wins the award or not has nothing to do with me. I'm just guessing based on the facts."

Zhou Wenqiong looked at Liu Xiaoli with a half-smile: "Sister, it's been more than half a year since I last saw Eric in Los Angeles."

"MGM sent someone to inspect the project once, but nothing happened after that. Our theater owner has been asking me about their attitude."

"You are so familiar with Eric, and Feifei, please help me speak up."

Liu Xiaoli glared at her sister and said, "Why should I be familiar with him? He doesn't even call me or send me a text message. I can't even talk to him."

"Haha. You can't say anything, but they still arranged a role for you. Feifei is going to participate in a big production this year. I know everything."

"If you don't help, Feifei will definitely help me."

Liu Xiaoli rolled her eyes. She had already given her body to him.

Why should I feed the tiger with my own body? It is to prevent my daughter from going into the tiger's den. Otherwise, it would be fun to bring back a tiger cub one day.

But if you think about it carefully, if you really have a tiger cub, it shouldn't be a bad thing. Eric Cooper is a man who is not good at love, but at least he keeps his word and will definitely not treat the child badly.

Driving out the messy thoughts in her mind, Liu Xiaoli said, "Okay, okay, I'll think of a way, don't worry."

Beverly Hills, Hilton Hotel, Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

Nicole opened the envelope and announced loudly: "The winner of the Golden Globe Award for Best Screenplay is Eric Cooper's "Blue Is the Warmest Color"!"

Wow. Papapapapa Instantly, the entire award ceremony venue was filled with thunderous applause. Regardless of whether they could see it or not, everyone's eyes were focused on one point.

The camera turned to the other nominees, and Ray Whannell naturally gave a heartfelt applause. After all, strictly speaking, "Get Out" was also a script led by Eric.

It is more like he is making repairs. The two people's contributions to the script are similar to the first and second authors of a paper, and there is a certain distance in terms of the gold content.

Even if "Get Out" won an award, Eric's contribution was greater, so he had no complaints at all and was satisfied just to be nominated.

Patty Jenkins was also convinced. Without MGM's investment, it was unclear whether "Monster" could be filmed, and it was still unclear whether it could be released in theaters.

Moreover, the influence of "Monster" is obviously not as great as that of "Blue Is the Warmest Color". The dark and cruel film lost to the fresh and clean one, which is not unfair.

The other two nominees, either smiling or looking serious, also applauded gracefully, but it was hard to tell what they were thinking in their hearts.

Maybe people will sneer and secretly curse Eric for winning the award by relying on this trend of political correctness, but no one knows.

But isn’t it also a responsibility of movies to adapt to public opinion and reflect social facts?

Amidst the warm applause, Ashley and Mary immediately gave him a sweet kiss, kissing him on both cheeks.

He hugged Judy, Andrea, Neil Blomkamp and others before striding onto the stage.

After going on stage, he hugged Nicole first, and the two of them kissed lightly.

After being severely trained, she didn't dare to launch a surprise attack this time, but just quietly said "I love you".

The director team was a little disappointed that the Emmy Awards did not happen. They deliberately arranged a segment, but you did not cooperate. What would happen to the ratings? After kissing the trophy, Eric said, "Thank you, Nicole, beautiful lady, you are my lucky goddess again."

"I want to keep playing this role." Neeko thought secretly.

“I am very grateful to the association for awarding the trophy to a young man like me. Compared with the others, I have the least experience.”

"They are both the best screenwriters. I have seen Lost in Translation and Mystic River. I am sure that both films will go down in film history. I am just lucky."

"I would also like to thank the entire crew, especially Ashley and Mary, who have given so much to their roles, more than anyone can imagine."

"Without their wonderful performances, the film would not be what it is now. You are the best."

Below the stage, the Olsen sisters looked at Eric with smiles on their faces. The wine glasses on the table reflected the stars in their eyes.

The two sisters looked at each other, and it was true that no one knew how much they had given to the roles, and they were completely lost.

After giving their acceptance speeches, Eric and Nicole walked back to the backstage arm in arm.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around at this moment, Eric used kneading on her ass.

Nicole's eyes were like water: "Dear, have I been obedient this time? Are you satisfied?"

"Hehe! You're smart."

"Then choose a time to come to my house. My mother likes you very much."

"ah?"

"What?! We're just having a meal and nothing else to do. Are you coming?"

Seeing someone coming, Eric nodded hurriedly: "I will definitely go!"

"That's more like it."

Returning to her seat, Mary grabbed the trophy and looked at it carefully: "Is this the Golden Globe Award? It's really beautiful. I want one too."

Ashley came over with the same eager look in her eyes. This trophy was more tempting than the most delicious candy in the world.

Eric laughed and said, "You will have it too, soon."

The awards ceremony continued with several TV series awards being handed out, followed by the Best Foreign Language Film.

As predicted by the media, the awards went to the Afghan film "Little Osama", while Russia's "Return" and Germany's "Goodbye Lenin" both failed.

This movie tells a microcosm of the Afghan people under Taban's rule in the 1990s. The movie is very heart-wrenching and cruel.

Although it is not as dimly lit as "Monster", it is just as dark and is the type that Eric will never watch a second time.

Even though this type of movie does not have a sophisticated narrative and structure, and does not have any editing or technical fancy tricks, some aspects are even deliberate.

But the shock of the story itself and the reality of the background make this deliberateness become natural and this simplicity become full.

The reason why a movie won an award is not only because it is realistic, but also because of some political factors.

The United States has not done anything good since it invaded Afghanistan in 2001. Choosing this movie can at least highlight its own justice.

Eric remembered that he had also watched a movie called "Children of Kabul", which reflected the lives of the people in Afghanistan after the US invasion.

This movie didn't seem to win any major awards.

Director Stick Barmak did not attend the Golden Globe Awards. His replacement went up to the stage, spoke a few words and then left the stage.

Diane Keaton won the Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy Movie for her performance in Something’s Gotta Give, and The Office won the Best TV Series - Musical or Comedy.

At this time, Jack Nicholson came up from the backstage wearing sunglasses. Those who dared to come up to present the awards in this outfit were all veterans, and most actors would be criticized for wearing sunglasses.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Old Jack was nominated for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy Movie, but unfortunately lost to Bill Murray.

However, he no longer needs to use awards to prove himself. Classic roles such as The Shining and The Joker have already made this old man stand very high.

"The other day, the association contacted me and said, Jack, how about you present the Best Actress in a Drama Series?"

"I said why didn't they let me present the Best Film award? Do they think I don't deserve it?"

"They said no, look at who's in the Best Picture category? Peter Jackson, Anthony Minghella, Clint Eastwood, Peter Weir, Eric Cooper."

"Five people put together can't make a beautiful leg. They are all stinky men, even though Eric Cooper is a young handsome guy."

"But even though homosexuality is popular now, I think you still prefer beautiful women."

"After careful consideration, I felt that it was the right choice, so I accepted the invitation."

Hahahaha Old Jack, who loves to make jokes, performed a talk show and made fun of the current homosexual trend, which immediately attracted a lot of laughter.

But some people can laugh, while others can't, like the Olsen family right now.

Olsen sat on the sofa with her parents. The only sound from the TV could be heard in the living room, and the three of them stared at the screen intently.

For this day, the couple who had been divorced for several years sat together again, hoping to see the wonderful moment when their two precious daughters were crowned queens.

"Dad, can Ashley and Mary win the prize?" Aolmei asked anxiously.

"Of course. Among these five movies, Blue Is the Warmest Color has the highest box office and the greatest influence. The gay community regards these two as idols and spiritual totems."

"The media and the internet are also very optimistic about Ashley and Mary. We will definitely win the award."

"Yes baby, your sister will definitely win a prize."

On stage, Jack Nicholson continued, "Nominees for Best Actress in a Drama Series are."

"Charlize Theron in Monster, Scarlett Johansson in Girl with a Pearl Earring, Evan Rachel Wood in 13, Cate Blanchett in SmackDown, and Ashley and Mary Olsen in Blue Is the Warmest Color."

There are six nominees for five films, because "Blue Is the Warmest Color" has two female protagonists and the two sisters have equal roles.

Suddenly, their hands were clenched, and the Olsen sisters pursed their lips nervously. Eric could even feel them trembling slightly.

At the round table next to her, Theron also looked at herself nervously, then stared at the envelope in Jack Nicholson's hand.

The same was true for the other three nominees. Cate Blanchett, dressed in red, already had the outline of the style of a future great devil. Scarlett Johansson, wearing a gorgeous evening gown, also came here for the award.

Under everyone's nervous gaze, Jack Nicholson slowly opened the envelope. The old man was still acting weird at this time.

He took off his sunglasses and announced with a smile: "The winner of the Best Actress in a Drama Movie is Ashley Olsen, Mary Olsen for Blue Is the Warmest Color!"

Yeah!

Yeah!

The two girls who had just turned 18 couldn't contain their excitement and stood up and cheered loudly.

Although their behavior was a little indecent, after all, they had just reached adulthood.

The little girl is young, energetic and vibrant, and she should dare to laugh and dance.

In particular, their winning of the award broke the record for the age of Golden Globe Award winners, at the age of 18, which is unprecedented.

It is hard to say whether there will be anyone who can succeed him, just like Eric's record, which is almost a swan song.

Even in 2021, Rachel Ziegler, the youngest actress to win the Golden Globe Award, was already 20 years old.

What's more, the Olsen sisters were raised by Americans. Now that they have grown up and become capable, it is reasonable for them to react strongly.

Therefore, this kind of excited expression will not make people hate it, but will make people feel cute.

The two kissed Eric on the face again, then walked onto the stage side by side.

Eric moved to the "Monster" crew and gently patted Theron's back to comfort her.

Charlize Theron pouted in grievance, her eyes unable to hide her disappointment. If it wasn't a public place, she really wanted to throw herself into Eric's arms and cry.

I have done so much, but still failed.

You like female stars to dress up as ugly, so I will dress up as ugly and gain weight.

If you don't like commercial movies, then I will make art films.

You guys like breakthrough roles, so I'll play a gay guy.

What else do you want from me? What else do you want me to do? Only then will you give me the trophy! The more she thought about it, the more she felt wronged. It was okay when Eric was not around, but seeing him around made her feel sad and she found an outlet to vent.

"Honey, I feel like crying a little bit," Theron whispered.

"Now's not the time, baby, or your feature will be on the front page tomorrow and those guys will make fun of you for being a sore loser, and that's okay."

"Isn't it just the Golden Globe? If we can't win it, forget it. Let's go for the Oscar. The Oscar is always more authoritative and convincing than the Golden Globe."

Patty Jenkins also comforted her, saying: "That's right, Theron, your performance is already great."

"The Golden Globe Awards are just a bunch of unprofessional people, the Oscars are professional. Wait another month and we will definitely win the Oscars."

"Really?"

"I promise, honey!" Eric nodded solemnly.
