​​

The five finalists for Best Actor this year have continued the hot competition in previous years, Jeff Bridges of "Wild Heart", Evan Bell of "In the Clouds", and Colin of "Single Man" - Firth, Morgan Freeman of "It's a Man", and Joseph Gordon-Levitt of "Five Hundred Days with Summer", the competitiveness of these top five players should not be underestimated.

​​

In the history of the Oscars, historical celebrities have always had an absolute advantage. For example, Helen-Mirren relied on Elizabeth II in "The Queen" to win the title of actress, and this year's Morgan, who is among the "achievements" - Freeman is the only historical celebrity among the candidates. He plays the most famous president in South Africa's history, Nelson Mandela, and Morgan Freeman's good popularity in Hollywood, his odds of winning this year are undoubtedly huge. But it is a pity that Morgan-Freeman was surrounded and suppressed by the other four virtual characters this year, both in terms of the strength of the performance and the overall strength of the work, and "It's a Man" was not even shortlisted for the best film. One of 10 seats, which undoubtedly puts Morgan Freeman sadly out of the competition.

​​

Colin Firth relied on "Single Man" to have a similar situation, although his excellent performance in the film won unanimous praise, and Colin Firth's elegant British gentleman image won the There are countless good impressions, but unfortunately the overall strength of the work is lacking, and this is only the first time he has been shortlisted for the best actor competition, so he is also at a disadvantage in the competition.

​​

Joseph Gordon-Levitt, who won the first Best Actor nomination in his acting career with "Five Hundred Days with Summer", is a rookie, but his contribution in Hollywood has a long history, starting from the time of former TV actors, to "Mystery". With the outstanding performance of a series of films such as "Skin", "Chasing the Killer", and "Stop Loss", Joseph Gordon-Levitt has always had a place in the field of independent Hollywood films. This time, after the release of "500 Days with Summer" It achieved unimaginable praise, and also allowed Joseph Gordon-Levitt to enter the ranks of the best actor for the first time. But it is a pity that the strength of the work itself, the strength and shock of the characters are a whole level behind, which also makes Joseph Gordon-Levitt the first to fall behind the competition of the best actor.

​​

In this way, only Evan Bell of "In the Clouds" and Jeff Bridges of "Wild Heart" are left, and this is also the first group that is unstoppable throughout the awards season.

​​

Jeff Bridges was nominated for the fifth Oscar this year in his acting career. If you want to make a list of actors who have been let down by the Academy, Jeff Bridges is definitely at the top. Imagine Leonardo DiCape two years ago. Leo was moved when he finally realized his Oscar dream, so it's not surprising that this year's Academy's apology votes are pouring into Jeff Bridges, especially compared to the main competitor Evan Bell - Evan Bell was last year's The best actor winner that the academy "owed" to Evan Bell in previous years no longer exists, which makes it easy for Jeff Bridges to occupy an excellent position.

​​

And the so-called credit votes made Jeff Bridges win at the right time and place again. "Crazy Heart" tells the story of an old country singer whose life is going downhill and finds the dawn of life again, which is different from last year's "Wrestler" Coincidentally, this is very attractive to the academy judges. Although "Crazy Heart" was not shortlisted for the Best Picture Award, the overall strength of the work is not weak at all, and it was also shortlisted for the Best Supporting Actress and Best Original Song departments. Jeff Bridges, who had already performed well enough in winning the Best Actor Award, was even more powerful.

​​

After being let down by the academy four times before and after, he relied on inspirational works to successfully kill the veteran who returned to the carbine, and against the rookie who only won the best actor last year. It is not a difficult choice for the judges.

​​

In this way, Jeff Bridges' advantage is indeed very obvious. So what did Evan Bell rely on to lead the awards season? In the outpost, Evan Bell won ten times, and Jeff Bridges won the second, which shows that Evan Bell still has the advantage in the competition. In the final analysis, it is actually strength.

​​

In "In the Clouds", Evan Bell's acting skills have been praised one-sidedly, and many film critics even shouted that Evan Bell was "born for acting skills", which has received countless support. I originally thought that last year's "Dark Knight" Evan Bell had contributed an almost unsurpassed performance. It can be said that he has reached a peak as an actor. In a short period of time, it is even more difficult for Evan Bell to complete his self-breakthrough. But in "In the Clouds", the golden acting skills of restraining all the complicated pains to the gentleman's elegant and calm surface, or let the whole Hollywood make a case for it, it will become clearer how wonderful Evan Bell's performance is this time. Different from the madness and extroversion of the clown, the delicate, depressing, complex, and elegant character of Ryan is hidden under the eyes soaked in time. People were amazed.

​​

The overall strength of the role's acting skills is superior, and it can even be said to be the most wonderful performance in 2009, which makes Evan Bell occupy the leading position, and the overall quality of "In the Cloud" is killer bronze. Among the five seats nominated by the best actor, "In the Cloud" is the only work that has won the best picture nomination. No one can match the overall strength. This makes Evan Bell a whole body ahead of his opponents in the competition. bit.

​​

So, no matter how many apology votes and credit votes Jeff Bridges has, they still haven't been able to stop Evan Bell throughout the awards season. In the end, the two just entered the final competition for the Oscars side by side. At present, Evan Bell's biggest weakness is: he was last year's best actor!

​​

In the 82-year history of the Oscars, there are only two actors who have won the best actor consecutively. Spencer Tracy "Philadelphia 2004" relied on the one-year "Furious Life" and the one-year "Orphan Paradise" to win the best actor consecutively. "Story" and "Forrest Gump" in 1 year to complete the two consecutive best actor Tom Hanks. In fact, even if the other three departments of actors are added, it is only three more actors, who are the best actresses in a row. Louise Rainer, Katherine Hepburn, and Jason Robust for Best Supporting Actor.

​​

It can be seen how difficult it is to be re-elected. Just like the re-election of the best director, it is not so easy to win any award in a row, let alone Evan Bell's age. Last year Evan- Bell has just completed the third consecutive feat in history in the director's department, and also won the title of Best Actor. It is not that simple to make history this year.

​​

To put it simply, the so-called "anti-eleven studio" wave of this year's awards season came like this, because Evan Bell's brilliance at the Oscars is really not enviable.

​​

In this comparison, Evan Bell's advantage has gradually been reduced and may even be overtaken by Jeff Bridges. Compared with Evan Bell, who is "loved by thousands of people", this year has been 60 years old. The 20-year-old Jeff Bridges is undoubtedly the more sympathetic tragic character.

​​

Before the Oscars, the best actor predictions, although everyone agreed that Evan Bell and Jeff Bridges are neck and neck, the other three actors are unlikely to upset the possibility, but the real general view is that Jeff Bridges finally adds brother

​​

Anne Hathaway naturally knows this. Although she knows that Evan Bell will not care, she will inevitably be nervous, because Evan Bell has performed so well this year, if it is Colin Fee Sorrow or Morgan Freeman, but Evan Bell's performance in "In the Clouds" is too good, and the hope of re-election is so strong, which makes Anne Hathaway more and more nervous

​​

"So I thought, I'd better not continue the suspense, lest I put more weight on your shoulders." Anne Hathaway said, rather than decompressing the guests on the scene, it is better to say She hoped to know the answer sooner, so that she would not be tortured by waiting again, so she simply opened the envelope without creating any more suspense.

​​

She took out the card inside the envelope~www.readwn.com~ Anne Hathaway felt her fingers were shaking. The thin card seemed to weigh thousands of pounds. Her first attempt was actually It didn't work, and the card was stuck in the envelope. She originally wanted to make fun of the microphone, but she thought of the words. "It seems that I am too excited to know the answer, so I can't do it." But her dry throat was unable to utter a single word. She could only swallow a mouthful of saliva subconsciously, then squeezed the card with her thumb and forefinger again, and pulled it out like this.

​​

The font on the card is so clear and beautiful, like a sonnet of Shakespeare, stretched out on the white card, Anne Hathaway's eyes read the font on it, and the apex of her heart trembled slightly. , She only felt that her eyes were a little hot in an instant, but she still forced herself to hold back.

​​

This process actually didn't even take a second, but Anne Hathaway felt it was so long, as if the time in the whole world had stopped, she hurriedly raised her head to the microphone, and the tears in her eyes slid down Before, the list had to be announced.

​​

"The winner of the 82nd Academy Award for Best Actor is", Anne Hathaway only felt that the stage lights in front of her were too dazzling, making her eyes hotter, and the warm water vapor made her vision a little bit Fuzzy, but she still had a big smile on her face and said in her slightly trembling voice, "Evan Bell, 'in the clouds'."
