When Leonardo DiCaprio stepped onto the stage to accept the Academy Award for Best Actor on February 28, he received a rare standing ovation(鼓掌欢呼).
After five acting nominations and 22 years of disappointed hopes since his first nomination(for What’s Eating Gilbert Grape in 1993), the 41-year-old actor finally won his first Oscar for his effort in the film The Revenant, which hit Chinese cinemas on March 18.
DiCaprio’s career took off when he played the romantic lead in Titanic(1997). However, the film also gave him the name “pretty boy”. People pay more attention to his face than his acting.
DiCaprio has been known as one of the pickiest actors in Hollywood. Instead of winning hearts in romantic films, he chose to work with more challenging productions.
For the role of Hugh Glass, an 1820s fur trapper in The Revenant, DiCaprio wore 47 different prosthetics(特效假体), slept in dead animals, and ate a bison liver. For over half the film, he crawled(爬) on the ground. An article in Life Week wrote, “Compared with DiCaprio’s terrible experience in The Revenant, Robinson Crusoe’s seems as easy and comfortable as a vacation.”
His effort was accepted by the Academy. After he has finally earned the US’ top acting award, DiCaprio is now working harder, turning to different challenges.

A. Two. B. Three. C. Four. D. Five.
2.In which film did Leonardo DiCaprio win the Oscar for Best Actor?

B. Leonardo DiCaprio is one of the pickiest actors in Hollywood.

Gary Oldman is like the English version of Leonardo DiCaprio. They are both actors who are "underappreciated（未受到充分赏识的）". DiCaprio didn’t win his first Oscar until 2016 at the age of 42. Oldman finally got his first Oscar at the age of 59 on March 5.
He took home the Best Actor award at the 90th Academy Awards. He won the award for his performance as former British prime minister Winston Churchill（温斯顿·丘吉尔）in the movie Darkest Hour. Many believe that Oldman personality reproduced Churchills appearance and personality, such as his round body, large jowls（双下巴）and cigars（雪茄）. Reporter Brian Truitt wrote in USA Today that after watching the movie for just 10 minutes, you forget that you’re seeing Gary Oldman—there is just Winston Churchill.
Oldman was already seen as an excellent actor even before winning his Oscar. In a 2015 survey, he was voted Greatest Actor to Never Win an Oscar, according to Ranker.com. He is known for his versatility（可塑性）. His acting style is expressive due to his theater training. He has played many classic roles: the vampire（吸血鬼）Count Dracula in Dracula, the policeman Norman Stansfield in Leon, and Harry Potter’s noble godfather（教父）Sirius Black.
Oldman said he acts not in order to win awards, but simply for the pleasure of acting. “Acting was my way out,” Oldman told Interview magazine. “The fun of it was getting away from myself and stepping into the characteristics and the behavior of someone else.”
