As a "small year" in the absolute sense, this year's Oscar ceremony can be described as lackluster, several awards are divided very evenly, and no movie has become a leader in the absolute sense.
To say that the biggest winner of this year's awards ceremony is not Alfonso Cuarón who holds three small gold men in his eyes, nor is it Lady Gaga who weeps and makes an acceptance speech, but the new Oscar-winning film Emperor Rami Marek.
Rami Marek
Rami Marek won the film emperor with his outstanding performance in "Bohemian Rhapsody", becoming the second post-80s Oscar after "Little Freckles" Eddie Redmayne, and the first non-white film emperor in 12 years.
In addition, he has become the most discussed winner on social networks, such as:
Handsome for only three seconds, after winning the award, he fell off the stage excitedly
Don't forget to sprinkle dog food when winning the prize
A magic bow tie that never gets right
He even became a koi-like being
Before seeing "Bohemian Rhapsody", it was difficult to associate this big-eyed boy who looked exactly like Brother Mars with Freddie, the lead singer of Queen, but he just succeeded.
Especially in the last live aid, under the white vest and jeans, he spewed out the power that sprang up in his body, and achieved God restoration from form to appearance.
This presentation is due to the training given to him by his rhythm teacher, who spent a lot of time studying all the small characteristics of Uncle Tooth, every eye look, every rotation, and every microphone shooting point, and repeatedly practiced until it was realized that Uncle Tooth was "upper body".
Rami Marek himself confessed that he did not want to simulate Freddie, but to understand the reasons and meanings behind everything Freddy did.
Hard work, combined with a deep understanding of the character, gives him the soul of Freddie on camera, not just Rami Marek, who wears dentures.
Before that, his most famous role was only Elliot Alderson, a young genius programmer with schizophrenia and drug addiction in the psychological thriller "The Matrix".
Although he won an Emmy Award for the series, it did not bring much splash to his career due to the low popularity of the series itself.
But as he himself complained, "Although the character in The Matrix only has a black hoodie, he let the producers of Bohemian Rhapsody discover me."
Freddie Mercury is a legend in his own right, and being able to star him should be a dream of many actors, so Rami Marek is lucky, but not only lucky, he is also suitable.
As he said when he received the award, "The film is about a gay man, an immigrant. We all crave our own stories, and I was one of the first immigrants from Egypt to come to America, and what's happening now is being written into our stories. I will cherish it for the rest of my life. ”
As an Egyptian actor, Rami Marek's exotic facial features are very recognizable, which is very suitable for a class of exotic characters.
For example, the pharaoh Akamanla in "Fantastic Nights at the Museum", this appearance is simply tailor-made for him, with such a large-scale commercial film as a film debut, Rami Marek is much luckier than many dragon set actors.
Of course, he also finished well enough to make the pharaoh a golden supporting role and run through the trilogy.
There is also the Egyptian vampire Benjamin who can control the elements in "Twilight 4: Breaking Dawn (Part 2)", although the last one only appeared, but still brushed a sense of existence in this big IP.
After that, Rami Marek starred in more high-profile literary films, whether it was a big director or a newcomer, he has cooperated, such as "Master" and "Juvenile Shelter".
The Master
Juvenile Shelter
I thought that my career was getting better and better, but after acting in "Old Boy" directed by Spike Lee, I was cut out of the scene.
It is understandable that Spike Lee wanted the work to be better presented, but he still felt sorry for Marek at that time.
Spike Lee should not have imagined that when he got the first little golden man, the actor who was cut out by himself also became a movie emperor.
In fact, all encounters are the best arrangement, and it is precisely because there are ups and downs that Rami Marek can interpret Freddie's pride when he is proud and lonely when he is frustrated in "Bohemian Rhapsody".
What's more, he is not yet forty years old, and he has a lot of opportunities to make his own legend.
