Adrien Brody won the Academy Award for Best Actor for “Revenge Kiss” and “Throwing Gum at Girlfriend”.

This is the second Best Actor award for Adrien Brody since “The Pianist”.

The 97th Academy Awards ceremony was held on March 3 (local time) in Los Angeles, and “ANORA,” a film about the tumultuous romance between a New York strip club dancer and the prodigal son of a Russian billionaire, won Best Picture, Best Director (Sean Baker), Best Actress (Mikey Madison), and Best Screenplay. The film won a total of five awards, including Best Picture, Best Director (Sean Baker), Best Actress (Mikey Madison), Best Screenplay, and Best Editing.

One of the most popular actors at this year’s awards ceremony was Adrien Brody (51), who passionately played an architect in “The Brutalist,” a film about the turbulent life of a Hungarian Jewish architect who survived the Holocaust and came to the United States. It was his second Best Actor award since “The Pianist” (2002).

Brody “first” attracted attention on the red carpet.

When Halle Berry, the first African-American to win an Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in “Chocolate” (’01), met Brody on the red carpet, she was accompanied by her boyfriend, fashion designer and actress Georgina Chapman, who was looking on. The actress surprised Brody with a passionate “lip to lip” kiss in front of his girlfriend, fashion designer and actress Georgina Chapman, who was accompanying Brody on the red carpet.

The Daily Mail (electronic edition) reported the surprise kiss,

“It was payback for Brody pulling me in for a dramatic kiss at the ’03 awards ceremony, right after he won an Oscar for ‘The Pianist’,” Halle joked.

Hal jokingly revealed, according to the report. And to Georgina.

‘I’m sorry, Georgina, but I have to do it.’

He said.

The red carpet was a riot of people screaming in shock and cheering, but Brody didn’t seem upset, and to maximize the dramatic effect, he immediately hugged Hal and Georgina applauded them.

In fact, Hal was presenting at the ’03 Academy Awards ceremony when Brody won Best Actor for “The Pianist in the Battlefield” at the age of 29, the youngest actor ever to win the award. It was then that Brody suddenly embraced Hal and kissed him passionately on stage. Halle froze for a moment, but did not reject the kiss.

Twenty-two years after the “happening kiss,” the “revenge kiss” took place. It was a scene that will remain in the history of the Academy Awards.

The longest speech in Academy Award history at 5 minutes and 40 seconds.

Brody also “got his ass handed to him” on his way up the stairs to the stage after his name was called for Best Actor. He turned around, took a piece of gum out of his mouth, and threw it to his girlfriend Georgina, who caught it on the TV broadcast. The scene caused a firestorm on the Internet and elsewhere.

In addition, Brody caused a stir during his acceptance speech for the Best Actor award, which lasted 5 minutes and 40 seconds, the longest speech in the history of the past 97 Academy Awards. The previous record was said to be 5 minutes and 30 seconds when Greer Garson won the Best Actress award for “Mrs. Miniver” in 1943.

In her speech, Brody also thanked her partner Georgina and her two children with her imprisoned ex-boyfriend Harvey Weinstein,

He said, “I know it’s been a roller coaster ride. Thank you for letting me into your life.”

He stated. He then discussed racism against Jews and others, which is a theme of “The Brutalist,

If the past can teach us anything, it is that we must not let hate go unchecked.

He appealed to the audience.

This year’s Academy Awards did not have a major contender like last year’s “Oppenheimer,” which won a record seven awards. However, “ANORA,” which won five awards, including Best Picture, for the tumultuous love romance between a New York stripper and the prodigal son of a Russian billionaire, and “Emilia Perez,” in which a drug lord has a sex change and becomes a woman. A COMPLETE UNKNOWN,” in which Timothée Chalamet plays a young Bob Dylan; “Papal Election,” a fishy behind-the-scenes look at the papal election after the death of the Pope; “Substance,” starring Demi Moore; and Ariana Grande’s operatic singing of another dimension in ” Wicked: Two Witches,” and many others were unique and full of charm.

Among them, “The Brutalist” is a blockbuster of 3 hours and 35 minutes with an intermission. Brody passionately plays a genius Hungarian-Jewish architect with a deadly passion for grand architecture in a foreign land. He was the sole winner of this year’s Academy Awards for his role in the revenge kiss fiasco with Hal, the gum-throwing and the longest speech in history.
