Chapter 218

Although facing protests from the Rainbow League, the 68th Oscars ceremony was held on March 25th in the Chandler Hall of the Los Angeles Music Center on time. The experience of several times in the last ten years shows that any big-selling film won When there are multiple nominations, the scene and ratings of the awards ceremony will be extremely hot, and "Saving Private Ryan", as the biggest hit this year, played an obvious leading role in the Oscars.

Just after noon, Sarah took the media invitation and entered the reporter area. As a reporter on the entertainment section of the Los Angeles Times, she was in a good position. Although the red carpet would have to wait for a while before it started, the fans on the opposite side were constantly shouting crazy. , But it is also good material.

"Bill!"

As the number of people in the reporter area grew, Sarah told her cameraman, "After the red carpet begins, you must listen to me to direct the shooting!"

"Hey, Sarah." Bill mumbled dissatisfiedly as he stood up the camera, "I'm not a novice."

"There are too many people rubbing the red carpet every year!" Sarah was still uneasy. "We have to grasp the point."

No one can tell when it started. Those actresses who can't get the invitation letter but want to show up will appear on the red carpet by following the celebrity, sponsorship, and even agency and media routes. ⊙, if other actresses walk slowly on this short red carpet, these women who have no shortlisted works, no invitation from the organizer, and the broadcaster will not even give the camera, they are exactly one foot or even an inch The move, can't wait for half an hour to finish.

If you want to mix in the entertainment industry, thick skin is the basic condition, but these people's skin is definitely thicker than the bright red carpet.

These people have no value at all for well-known entertainment reporters like her and the Los Angeles Times, and film is wasted when they are used on them.

Male celebrities in formal dresses walked the red carpet. They are basically at a normal speed; each and every female celebrity who is showy on the red carpet walks on the red carpet, they are extremely slow, and they can spend a while.

Both the former and the latter have murdered countless films.

A black RV parked in front of the red carpet, the door opened, and a tall man in a dark dress got out of the car.

"It's Duke Rosenberg!"

Throw away the few female stars who are still daunting on the red carpet. Dozens of camera lenses moved to the front of the red carpet.

"Boom and two billion directors are here!"

These cameramen are as excited as meeting top stars like Tom Cruise and Tom Hanks, who have been the focus of public opinion for months, even if he himself has never stood in front of the camera and said anything.

"He has a female companion?"

Seeing the young director turned around and reached out to the car, Bill couldn't help but wonder. Although this is a famous Hollywood playboy, he rarely appeared in public with women.

When Duke Rosenberg turned around to lead a woman from the car, Bill could feel countless flashes of light around him, and he kept pressing the shutter to capture the two people.

"Who is she?"

Many people have raised such questions.

The woman has long black flowing hair. The amber eyes are blurred and bright, born with a unique temperament. When she walks quietly out of the car, her delicate face is like a classic lady, and when she smiles to her male partner, she is full of The charm of wildness.

There is also a tall and plump figure wrapped tightly under a black low-cut evening dress, which is simply synonymous with beauty and sexy.

Where does such a woman come from? If she has played an important role on the big screen, she will definitely make an impression.

"do you know her?"

Bill asked Sarah next to him. "You did a few interviews for Duke Rosenberg, and you also got in touch with his public relations. Do you know who that woman is?"

"If you guessed it correctly."

Not only Bill, Sarah saw the people around them all pricked their ears, "That woman is from England, you will find out when you check it out. There are some famous actors, like Catherine Zeta Jones. It should be the new Duke of Destruction movie. The heroine of "Chicago"?"

"Isn't it his girlfriend?"

A reporter with a "New York Post" badge next to him asked that he was already thinking about how to go back and write about the gossip about the first public love affair of the blaster.

"You are optimistic about it."

After the small transaction with Penny Kelly was completed, Sarah stopped talking and urged Bill to continue taking pictures.

"It doesn't seem to be right now."

When the two people walked on the red carpet, someone said in a disappointed tone.

The Bombshell and the British actress are not intertwined. It's just the most normal way to go arm in arm. It seems that it's just the relationship between the director and the lead actor. These reporters also have speculation in their hearts. They are all insiders and know that this should be the film's publicity strategy.

However, the two of them would look at each other and laugh from time to time, always making silent communication with their eyes.

Because of the responsibility of publicity and exposure, Duke does not walk as fast as he used to participate in public events. He can feel the hand of Zeta Jones on his arm trembling slightly, and can also see that the British woman around him is very excited. .

If it weren't for him, Duke estimated that the opponent would be able to walk at most one-third of the current distance.

"Is this the Oscar red carpet?"

Taking advantage of the opportunity to turn his head, Zeta Jones whispered in his ear, "Although it is the first time to go, I feel I have fallen in love with it."

"My dear, this is also the first time." Duke shrugged, and stepped a little faster. "We'll get better soon."

"You are also the first time?"

Zeta Jones maintained a charming smile, but there was doubt in his amber eyes, "How could you be the first time?"

"This is the first time I have been nominated for a personal award."

Seeing someone holding up the poster of "Saving Private Ryan", Duke beckoned over there, but the reaction of the fans was relatively flat, so he had to continue to say to the woman next to him, "Although "Independence Day" and "Brave to Death Island" "I was nominated for an Oscar and I was eligible to go on the red carpet, but I was busy with work and didn't have time."

Busy with work? No time?

This is unbelievable. Others don't want to get an Oscar to show up, but the person next to him is not very enthusiastic...

After a few more steps, Zeta Jones suddenly wanted to understand that she had been on the "Chicago" crew for a few months, and she had seen how hard she worked at work, and she had also heard others mention it. He believes that the most important thing for a director is to speak with his work.

Also, he is so young and so good, there will be many opportunities to step onto the Oscar stage in the future.

Of course, he is not an old-fashioned director who does not know how to adapt, otherwise he would not accept Kelly's suggestion and follow her on the red carpet.

Zeta Jones' eyes turned to his side again, this is a director who is difficult to understand.

Duke didn't know what the women around him thought. Just took her into the interview area and accepted interviews with reporters.

As the director of the hottest movie tonight, he is of course the focus of media attention. As soon as he walked into the interview area, a reporter from the broadcaster abc TV station ran over.

"Director Rosenberg, are you confident tonight?"

These are all routine questions, and Duke also answered according to the routine, "I think we should be able to take away a few statuettes."

The female reporter asked again. "Can you get the best director on record?"

"I will get it one day."

Although it was the official answer, Duke told the truth. "But not this time, I'm still very young, and there will always be opportunities in the future."

He knows very well that age is a disadvantage that cannot be changed, and people like Tim Robbins in "Death Row" do not work in private at all.

"Can you talk about the beautiful lady next to you?" The reporter looked at Zeta Jones, who was always smiling charmingly. "Is this your girlfriend?"

"Such a misunderstanding is not easy to explain."

Turning their heads, Duke and Zeta Jones looked at each other deeply in front of the camera, and then said, "This is Miss Catherine Zeta Jones. Kate is a very good actor. She is the heroine of my new film. , As you can see, she is beautiful and charming."

Upon hearing Duke's words, the reporter immediately turned to Zeta Jones, "Miss Jones, can you talk about this cooperation between you and Duke?"

"of course can."

Since standing here, Zeta Jones is waiting for such an opportunity, "Last year, Director Rosenberg went to London to find me. He thought I was very suitable for the role of Velma, and he has always been my favorite. Director, we have this collaboration. Although the film has not yet started shooting, he has given me a lot of inspiration and guidance when discussing the script and characters..."

She turned her head, looked at Duke affectionately, and continued, "This will be a turning point in my career as an actor, and the most important performance in my life. Only after working once can you discover how good Duke is. , His talent and hard work are admirable, even fascinating..."

In terms of acting skills, even if he worked hard for another twenty years, Duke thought he would be inferior to Zeta Jones. After accepting the interview, he no longer stayed outside. He walked in directly with this charming actress. Chandler Hall, following the instructions of the staff, passed through the front hall and a long corridor, and entered the theater main hall from the VIP passage reserved specially.

"I've been here before." Zeta Jones murmured as he walked toward the front row holding Duke, "Why does it feel completely different?"

"Because this is Oscar."

Replied casually, Duke looked round, looking for the location of the crew. Before he could see a familiar face, Nancy Josephson chased him from behind.

"Here." She led the way and said to Duke. "You'll be familiar with it a few times."

How many times?

This sentence seems to say to Zeta Jones's heart, she likes such an occasion, likes the feeling of being watched, and wants to participate in every Oscar.

Turning her head, her eyes fell on Duke. Will this be her protection?

"Where is my mother?"

This is Duke's biggest concern, "Did she come in?"

"Sophia sits with her in front." Nancy walked to the front row of the crew of "Saving Private Ryan". (To be continued...)
