Oscar preview
Best video
No matter how many times you have been criticized for "politics are too (incorrect), or you have been rolled into eyes many times "the results are so boring", and even make a big mistake at the awards ceremony, it doesn't matter, the Academy Awards is still the biggest party that attracts the attention of the world! Whether it is the starry sky, the entertainment of the topic, or the value and authority of the award, its comprehensive strength is unrivaled. This year, after the preheating of the awards season, the "seed players" are working hard to sprint towards the awards ceremony on March 4, and the melon-eating people have also moved small benches and waited for the show to begin. In the next few days, the Southern Metropolis Daily will conduct a series of Oscar-themed reports to enjoy the same interests. Unlike last year, "La La Land" has almost all topics, the works shortlisted this year are obviously more colorful. Commercial top sellers such as "Dunkirk", niche and fresh like "Miss Bird" and "Call Me with Your Name", classic and exquisite like "Darkest Hour" and "The Story of Water", cold and sharp like " Three Billboards ", and low-cost thriller like "Escape from the Dead Town", Oscars "have both rain and dew", and they include all the reputation works of the past year in one breath. Let’s talk about the nine movies that will compete for the best film. How big is their respective winning odds? Special article: Liu Ping'an
"Story of Water" The Shape of Water
In addition to telling the love between a mute cleaner and a fish-shaped monster, the film also uses fairy tales and fables to metaphor reality and dabble in topics such as politics and history. This is a very "gyro" film (Chinese movie fans love director Guilmo del Toro ) style, with monsters and dark winds everywhere. After the film appeared at Venice Film Festival , it started the award harvesting mode: first it won the Golden Lion Award, the highest honor at the Venice Film Festival, and then won the Golden Globe Award Best Director and American Directors Union Award... Well, the most competitive one is the director award.
However, the film also received tons of complaints: the story is cliché, the setting is ordinary, boring, and it is quite over-reputable. So will the best video favor it? It's true, the possibility is not low. The exquisite classical aesthetics, strong retro atmosphere and the details of the movie in "The Story of Water" are all Oscar's cup of tea. "The Story of Water" will also be introduced in the future.
"Dunkirk"
Dunkirk
"Dunkirk" is the "only two" commercial blockbuster on the list—the other is the Washington Post. Nolan tried a military war movie for the first time, and he almost didn't shoot one shot or another, and his dialogue was extremely small. He just threw more than $500 million in the box office around the world, which was very domineering. Foreign media generally praised the visual effects and spiritual oppression created by "Dunkirk", and the skills are at the level of masters. However, the "control-crazy" narrative style of Master Nolan, which is "proficient in calculations", seems to have never been very popular with Oscars... Let's wait and see.
"Please Call Me with Your Name"
Call Me by Your Name
When resources were released, "Please Call Me with Your Name" continued to flood the circle of friends and Weibo. Major platforms have a lot of reputation, with a 96% freshness of Rotten Tomatoes and a Douban score of 8.9. In addition to the taboos of a boy and the sweet and sour taste of first love, "Call Me with Your Name" also captures more youthful marks and emotions in life, which are sad but also bright and passionate. This is not just a youth film that teaches people to remember.
The gag of homosexuality is always easy for people to ignore the real hero behind the movie - director Luca Guadanino . It is he skillfully used audio-visual language to perfectly integrate all aspects such as lenses, soundtracks, photography, etc., and tell all the indescribable and elusive desires, confusions and heartbreaks. In addition to the wonderful performances of the starring actors, "Please Call Me with Your Name" was nominated for the best film, which is well deserved.
"Darkest Hour
"The film tells the story of the legendary British Prime Minister Churchill who led the country through the "Darkest Hourhtml" during World War II."Darkest Hour" is a classical and exquisite work in a stable and stable manner. The close-ups of several Churchill's mid-range visions in the film are impressive. In addition, the main creators also added a more humane and interesting side to the "Great and Glorious" biographical story. However, the biggest highlight of the film is Gary Oldman's performance, who is not a strong contender for the best film.
"Three Billboards"
Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, one of the most popular Missouri
. He won the Golden Globe Award for Best Drama and the Best Screenplay Award for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival. Because her daughter's murder was pending, the mother made three billboards on the road to the town, and the signs on the signs questioned the police chief: "Why haven't the murderer been caught yet?" This extreme move made her the "public enemy" of the town. This film has the distinctive style of geek director Martin McDonald , black humor , melancholy and helpless, an attitude of looking at life with a smile and not being knocked down by life.
"Miss Bird"
Lady Bird
The rebellious trivial matters of an adolescent girl, lost, angry, desire to be loved and paid attention; what is more eye-catching is the mother-daughter relationship in the play, tension is full. Although the layout of "Miss Bird" is limited, the fresh and refined temperament conveyed by it lies in its delicateness and reality. Actor Greta Gerwig picked up the director for the first time and served as the screenwriter of the film. His talent was revealed. Nominations were more of a kind of affirmation, and there was little hope of winning the award.
"Phantom of the Nichang"
Phantom Thread
This is a slow-paced and mysterious love story. The British chief designer, who has always been lonely and arrogant, encountered the "deathful daughter" of the lower class. She became his muse and lover, but also inspired conflicts and confrontations, threatening his carefully crafted tailor life. The exquisite music, pictures, and costumes are a major highlight of the film, but on the other hand, the clichéd narrative is very likely to be annoying, so that even the exquisite layout becomes a faux pavilion. What is more confident about "Phantom of the Nishang" is the screenwriter awards, and what the audience is most looking forward to is to watch the PK between Daniel Day Lewis and Gary Oldman.
"Escape from the Deadly Town"
Get Outham 1
"Escape from the Deadly Town" is really popular in North America: it is produced at a low cost of $4.5 million, with OK texture, and has won a box office of more than $250 million, making a big fortune with small profits, which is rare; suspense and thrilling old jokes with black humorous jokes, which is relaxed and entertaining; finally, it is said about race, with extremely rich interpretations... Every element can bring good impressions. But shortlisted for the best video? The biggest dark horse is correct!
In previous years, thrillers generally missed Oscars, and this time, "Escape from the Deadly Town" was nominated for the big prizes such as Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay and Best Actor in one go, which made people amazing: This dark horse is really too dark...
"Washington Post"
The Post 1
The Post 1
This is a work that is very consistent with the current political context. The film focuses on the Pentagon leak in 1971. The editor-in-chief of the Washington Post played by Tom Hanks and the publisher played by Aunt May, is about to expose a huge political cover-up incident before " New York Times ". This is a "glorious and upright" main theme movie. Those who like it praise it and still make people feel ignited in routines. Those who don't like it will criticize it for being too stiff and exerting too much force.
