When the Golden Globe Awards ceremony came to an end and all the winners were announced, Bob Weinstein’s tight heartstrings finally relaxed, because Harvey Weinstein’s judgments were all correct, and the entire awards The trend of the season is advancing as Weinstein Pictures expected.

Again, Harvey was right.

In a corner deep in his heart, Bob faintly expects Harvey to stumble. He does not hope that there is a problem with Weinstein Pictures. He just hopes that Harvey can converge and calm down. Don’t continue to dominate and dominate. It’s best to encounter it in a light and unimportant way. Hit it head-on and then be able to wake up, otherwise Bob doesn't know where things will go, even if it is him, facing Harvey, he is a little out of breath.

Having said that, Harvey’s prediction is correct again, which is a good thing for Weinstein Pictures, which means that they can follow Harvey’s established pace and move towards the second stage. Bob has strong doubts, even if the golden ball The list of award winners deviates from expectations, and no one can change Harvey's decision.

Now, who can stop Harvey?

After realizing this, Bob is not sure, whether he hopes to win the Oscar smoothly this year, or... a little surprise?

On January 11, the 72nd Golden Globe Awards Ceremony was officially held at the Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, Los Angeles. The same venue, the same season, the same event, almost all of Hollywood came out, once again dressed up and greeted grandly. An annual entertainment topic feast.

Compared with previous years, this year’s award season average is closer and the competition is more intense, but it lacks blockbuster works that can create stormy waves. Last year there was "Gravity" and "Wolf of Wall Street", and the year before last there was "Juvenile Fantastic Drifting." And "Lincoln", there were "Hugo" and "War Horse" the year before the Chinese New Year, but what about this year?

The highest box office works in this year’s awards season are "Burst Drummer" and "Imitation Game". Before the Golden Globes, and after adding a "Disappearing Lover", only these three works had a North American box office of over 100 million yuan. When "Interstellar" failed to win the Golden Globe Award for the best film nomination in the drama category, it also means that this year's overall commercial attributes will fall to the lowest point in five years. This is also the "American sniper" can make a long-term effort but still The reason for the impact.

However, despite the lack of heavyweights, the overall average strength of the works is very gratifying. The box office performances of "Birdman", "Budapest Hotel" and "Fox Hunter" are all very good, showing a far-reaching market response different from previous years. , If you add the locally popular "boyhood", then the topic of the awards season will be even more lively. So far, the discussion on social networks has indeed reached the highest point in the past.

The Golden Globe Awards ceremony undoubtedly achieved a new high in the discussion boom, the competition is closer, and there are more possibilities for the list of winners.

The first is the attribution of the best film.

Among the best films in the drama category, "Boyhood" reached the top and defeated opponents including "Imitation Game", "Theory of Everything", "Fox Hunter", and "Selma Parade."

This can be said to be expected. From Sundance’s tepidity to the end of the year, "Boyhood" has indeed become the number one explosion in this year’s awards season, and director Richard Linklater has also been among the top in one fell swoop. The ranks completely reversed the situation that had always been rolling in the field of art and film before.

The two works of Weinstein Pictures, "Imitation Game" and "The Theory of Everything" are both double-fold, especially the former. After Toronto climbed to the top, high hopes were placed, but they still failed to overcome the "boyhood" that film critics loved; After the race card "Selma Parade" received numerous praises during the awards season, after all, it failed to replicate the strong upward curve of last year's "12 years as a slave".

Harvey's inside information undoubtedly confirmed the final awards results.

Among the best films in the musical comedy category, the "Budapest Hotel" defeated a number of opponents to reach the top, from the collective encirclement and suppression of powerful opponents such as "Birdman", "Burst Drummer", "Saint Vincent" and "Pride" stand out.

What is slightly abnormal is that the intensity of competition in musical comedy this year has surpassed that of drama works. The three works of "Budapest Hotel", "Burst Drummer" and "Birdman" can be regarded as a tripartite, and their reputations and votes are among each other. They are all very close; "Saint Vincent" also has a dark horse upset level, leaving aside the weaker "prudence" of the overall strength, the award is full of suspense, which also makes the wind vane of the Golden Globes attract much attention.

The Hollywood Foreign Correspondents Association finally raised its eyebrows. In the past years, it has always been criticized for its popcorn setting in the musical comedy category. You can even see the "Hangover" topping the best film in the musical comedy category. This year Finally ushered in a full explosion of music and comedy works.

In the end, the "Budapest Hotel" defeated the "Burst Drummer" to reach the top, and Wes Anderson is considered to have finally created his own masterpiece. The winning is a logical result; and Damien Chazele is just his own first. For two works, he still needs time to slowly polish his skills.

"Birdman" and "Saint Vincent" also failed to go further in the first stage, which also added more suspense to the second stage of the college public relations.

Harvey Weinstein's predictions about the two best films are all correct.

Followed by the director department.

David Fincher of "The Lost Lover", Ava-duvernay of "The Selma Parade", Wes Anderson of the "Budapest Hotel", Richard of "Boyhood" Linklater, "Birdman"'s Alessandro Gonzalez-Inarito, ranked in the top five.

Because the average strength of the works is very, very close, this also makes the best director's department that only allows five nominations to become crowded immediately, such as Damien Chazele of "Burst Drummer" and Morten Tai of "Imitation Game". Dumm (morten-tyldum), "Fox Hunter"'s bent-miller (bent-miller), etc. all fell behind, but David Fincher relied on the excellent reputation of "The Lost Lover" to emerge suddenly.

Objectively speaking, the entire Hollywood knows that the Oscar owes David Fincher a golden figure. The excitement of the "social network" that year has been well-known in history, but was photographed at the Oscars as the steady "king's speech" Tom Hober. Overturned, this is the second largest Oscar tragedy in the millennium after Brokeback Mountain. To this day, there are still countless people complaining about David Finch and Tom Hober has gradually become obsolete.

Although "The Lost Lover" is not David Fincher's pinnacle work, after the Golden Globe nomination list came out, there are still people who speculate whether David Fincher should be given a correct name?

The final list of winners was announced. Richard Linklater won the summit again by virtue of his "boyhood". The entire awards season can be described as a real soft win.

"The Lost Lover" appeared as a commercial film, but after gaining countless praises, it accidentally entered the awards season and copied the miracle of last year's "gravity", but in the end it was not able to go further. David Finch once again It is embarrassing to pass the Best Director Award.

However, the competition for this year’s Best Director Award is very, very fierce. Even if the Golden Globe Award winners are out, the Oscars and the Directors’ Guild of America nominations are still full of suspense, and no one can be 100% sure about who will Who will fall behind in the finalists must not be taken lightly.

Judging from the comprehensive awards, "Boyhood" has undoubtedly become the biggest winner in the first stage of the awards season. This media review still maintains a 100-point absolute masterpiece, which can be called the biggest topic of the year.

It's the actor department again.

The best actor in a drama, Eddie Medlein of "Theory of Everything" defeated Benedict Cumberbatch of "Imitation Game" to the top, and Steve Carrie of "Fox Hunter" El, Jack Gyllenhaal of the "Nightcrawler", and David-oyelowo of the "Selma Parade" all become foils.

The most regrettable thing is undoubtedly Jack Gyllenhaal, who dedicated the best performance of his career. He has never seemed to be an actor favored by the college judges, and there is even a rumor in the industry: the college judges are still playing because he chose Brokeback Mountain. "And reject him and punish him; if Heath Ledger had not died young, of course, "Batman: The Dark Knight" might not be nominated. Rumors are only rumors. Whether you want to believe it or not is a matter of opinion.

The biggest winner is undoubtedly Weinstein Pictures, Eddie and Benedict's dual insurance team led the way, and it is still the biggest favorite in the awards season.

Benedict remained strong in the first half of the first stage, while Eddie started to exert his strength in the second half of the first stage. Now the overall momentum has surpassed Benedict, and Renly has become the strongest actor this year. For strong contenders, the result of the Golden Globe Award is a competition "in the family.

Harvey’s judgment is correct again~www.novelhall.com~ Now Eddie’s momentum has always shown an upward curve, which also means that Eddie will become the strongest competitor of Lanly’s second Oscar summit. , The second stage of the college public relations force is bound to tilt towards Eddie, if necessary, Benedict may become an abandoned son.

More importantly, what Bob worries about: The "imitation game" that puts countless public relations forces in the early stage may also become a marginal **** because of Harvey's irrationality, and ultimately waste the many layouts of Weinstein Pictures, and he will not pay attention to it. , It may lose all the game; although Harvey still has the initiative in the second stage, Bob is now more worried that Harvey’s "sense" may not be able to make a correct judgment.

So, should Bob dissuade Harvey?

Then, the topic went back to the original point: Does Bob want Harvey to be stopped? Does Bob want Harvey to stumble? Does Bob want Weinstein Pictures to suffer head-on? Also, if Bob really persuaded Harvey for the sake of the company, can he make Harvey change his mind?

Or, just let it go, let Harvey really suffer a little bit, pour a basin of cold water, the overheated brain cools down, and then Bob guides Harvey to change his mind?

Should he do this?
