"愛.誘.罪"的俊男美女.....應會失落奧斯卡

今期"Entertainment Weekly"的Oscar Cover Issues改了名.....

過去數年的標題是"The OSCAR Race Begins", 但今年的則是"Will the Oscars Happen?".......大家也知美國編劇工潮加上演員公會的相助已令金球獎投降取消頒獎的典禮, 改為1小時的得獎結果發佈......那奧斯卡又怎樣呢, 今年可能真的不用請假留在家中看了...... anyway, 我很尊重辛勞付出但相對回報不成比例的編劇們的決定的...... (當然我還是希望工潮可以早日決定啦)


話說回來, 今期"Entertainment Weekly"以《Atonement 愛.誘.罪》的俊男美女主角James McAvoy及Keira Knightley作封面。傳統來說, 能在EW Oscar Cover Issue上封面的, 很自然至少相關電影或演員會得到提名(甚至勝出), 過往十數年的封面如下.....

2007: The Silver Foxes(Helen Mirren, Meryl Streep, Judi Dench)
2006: George Clooney(Good Night, and Good Luck/Syriana)
2005: Johnny Depp & Kate Winslet(Finding Neverland)
2004: Naomi Watts(21 Grams)/Jennifer Connelly(..Sand and Fog)/Charlize Theron(Monster)
2003: Renne Zellweger & Catherine Zeta-Jones(Chicago)
2002: Halle Berry(Monster's Ball) & Will Smith(Ali)
2001: 楊紫瓊 & 周潤發(卧虎藏龍)
2000: Kevin Spacey & Annette Bening(American Beauty)
1999: Gwyenth Paltrow(Shakespeare in Love)
1998: (在我的珍藏架上消失了.......找不到)
1997: Tom Cruise(Jerry Mcguire) & Madonna(Evita)


雖然EW預測《Atonement 愛.誘.罪》在男女主角在也會被遺忘的情況下, 仍會有電影/導演/劇本的提名, 但現實又有點殘酷......

......因為已公佈的演員工會(SAG)、導演工會(DGA)、編劇工會(WGA)、剪接師工會(ACE)的提名名單上也是COMPLETE SHUT OUT!!!! 換言之, 在足以影響奧斯卡提名的5大勢力公會當中得不到4大公會的支持, 只餘下還未發表提名的大勢力的只有製片工會(PGA).......其實還有很多工會, 如美術指導、音響效果、化粧師、視覺效果......一部電影在越多工會得到提名越好, 因為不少投票人也是跟奧斯卡重覆的, 而不少人投票時, 又會受工會主流意見的影響。

暫時得到最多工會提名的是《No Country for Old Men》, 合共已得到7工會提名；《There will be Blood》得到6個, 《Into the Wild》及《Michael Clayton》也得到5個....... 以上4電影, 全得到演員、導演、編劇、剪接師4大工會的提名支持。
