Profitable an Oscar is meant to assist your profession, not make individuals suppose badly of you. Sadly for Adrien Brody, that is precisely what occurred. When his title was known as because the winner of this yr’s Greatest Actor Oscar for his function in The Brutalist, Brody stood, pulled out his gum, and tossed it towards his accomplice, Georgina Chapman, earlier than continuing to the stage. (Severely, bro? You could not swallow it? Or put it in your pocket?) Then, upon reaching the rostrum, he launched into an unfocused and un-extraordinary acceptance speech that might set a brand new document for its size — practically six minutes. Even when the orchestra mercifully tried to play him off, Brody persevered, requesting the music be stopped. He even remarked, “I’ve executed this earlier than. Thanks. It isn’t my first rodeo.” (He beforehand received for The Pianist). Falling on the way in which to the stage would not appear so unhealthy now, does it?
