On Tuesday, at a National Critics Guild gala in New York City, the "King Richard" star, Will Smith, spoke about his awards for the season and his personal feelings after learning that his efforts in the film were recognized.
"It felt amazing! It's something I've always wanted to try to do. I hope to perform some works that resonate with everyone. I'm lucky to have such an opportunity to make it happen. I feel very happy to feel the love that people have for this movie. ”
Smith also joked that he used to talk about his honor, but this time he was too busy. Because of the role of Richard Williams, he won one award after another, which can be described as a soft hand. In addition to winning the National Critics Association award, Smith is the winner of the Golden Globes, the Naevision Image Award, the British Academy of Motion Picture Arts Awards, the Film Actors Guild Awards, and most recently the Best Film Critic Award, in which the winning film "King Richard" tells the story of his hard work in training American tennis players and black Williams sisters.
Almost three months have passed since the nomination. Looking back, Smith believes that these things are unpredictable and uncontrollable, and that it is only necessary to wait quietly before the results actually come out, which is also a unique and beautiful experience for actors. Smith thanked the awards season, which he hadn't been here in the last three years since the pandemic, and that was the opportunity to make it to Washington three times.
In addition, Smith has been in competition with his friend and colleague Denzel Washington. This time, Denzel Washington was nominated for "The Tragedy of Macbeth". Smith said that because he is in the Oscars season, he is more willing to congratulate his peers than to compete. "We saw each other a lot during this time and spent a lot of time with each other, which will become a valuable memory."
On Sunday, Smith spoke a lot at the Best Film Critic Awards ceremony, highlighting the williams family's contributions and saying it was significant, not only for him personally, but for many others around the world, and their stories and spirit will continue to inspire everyone.
How do you think Smith performed in the film this time? Welcome to leave a comment.
