Kathryn Bigelow has become the first female ever to win a Best Director Oscar. "There's no other way to describe it, it's the moment of a lifetime," said Bigelow, at the awards ceremony in Los Angeles, on Sunday.
She was up against the highest grossing (卖座的) film of all time, Avatar. But Bigelow's small-budget film, The Hurt Locker, swept the awards with six trophies(奖项) including Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, and the big one: Best Picture. All eyes were on Bigelow, as her movie about the Iraq War beat Avatar to the major awards. This was sweetened by the fact that Avatar's director, James Cameron, is her ex-husband. Bigelow was only the fourth female ever to be nominated for Best Director.
"I think the journey for women, no matter what venue it is-politics, business, film-it's a long journey." said Bigelow. Ironically Bigelow's cinematic journey could not have strayed (偏离) farther from the path of female directors before her. Her filmography is filled with action movies that are low on female leads and high on guns and steel. Her films focus on men: their fears, bonds and personalities.
Point Break was her breakout film in 1991. The action film features Keanu Reeves as an FBI agent who goes undercover to investigate a gang of surfing bank robbers. The Hurt Locker is in the same style. Many scenes feature dramatic conflicts of clashing (冲突的)male personalities.
By focusing on these male relationships, critics praised The Hurt Locker for avoiding obvious political statements (something Avatar was heavily criticized for), and instead painting a truthful picture of modem war.
And is there an entertaining end to the story of Bigelow's victory? She won on International Women's Day.
1.The underlined word "nominated" can be replaced by .
A. awarded B. recommended C. appointed D. criticized
2.Which of the following is TRUE?
A. Bigelow and the director of Avatar is a couple.
B. The Hurt Locker won all the six Oscar trophies.
C. The film Point Break changes Bigelow's style
D. The Oscar award ceremony was held on March, 8th.
3.The main reason why critics favor The Hurt Locker is that .
A. it's the most successful action film
B. it shows the damage that war brings to nature
C. it avoids obvious political statements
D. it shows us what modern war is really like
4.The passage is most likely to be found in .
A. a poster B. advertisement C. a magazine D. a booklet
