这部电影并未囊括全部奖项。露皮塔·尼永奥，出生于肯尼亚的一个家庭，许多人，包括我在内，都期待她凭借《十二年为奴》夺得最佳女配角，但结果并非如此。詹妮弗·劳伦斯凭借电影《美国骗局》摘下最佳女配角奖。然而，巴克德·阿巴蒂，现年28岁，出生于索马里，但从青少年时期就成为美国常住居民，凭借电影《菲利普船长》夺得最佳男配角。我刚才提到，今年英国电影学院奖获奖的另一个大赢家是由阿方索·卡隆执导的《地心引力》。如今，我们普遍认为他是墨西哥人，但事实上，他已经在伦敦居住了13-14年。获得最佳导演奖，卡隆说，自己终于能够被称为拍出最好的英国电影的导演。当然，前面我们提到了，这部电影获得的奖项不止这一个。
“大家可以听出来我有国外口音，但是我一直把自己视为英国电影业的一分子。我在伦敦住了13年，我的一半电影作品都是在英国创作的。我觉得，可以把我作为限制移民的一个范本。”
以上是“伦敦人”阿方索·卡隆的获奖感言。那么，这次电影学院奖还有什么其他亮点呢？
“大家都知道，学院奖每年都会颁发突出贡献奖，那么今年这个奖被导演彼得·格林纳威收入囊中。他说，对于学院奖，一直觉得自己是个局外人，所以，能作为这个奖项的入围者，已经很令人吃惊了。另外，还有一件事，我认为会在明天引起轰动，那就是海伦·米伦凭借在电影《女王》中的精彩表现，荣获终身成就奖，该奖项由威廉王子颁发。”

19：红杉树因偷猎者砍伐受到威胁Redwood under threat from poachers
09/06/2014
Some of the tallest trees in the world are under threat from poachers. Parts of the redwood forest park have been closed off after a 400-year old tree was cut down. More and bigger burls are being taken near former logging towns where the economy has collapsed.
They are the tallest trees on the planet. Some are 2000 years old. We've come looking for stolen burls. When cut into slabs and then polished up， they can produce a very seriking piece of wood. And that's how these things are cut off. So by removing a burl， you are taking away that tree's ability to repopulate， to regenerate.
People cut down trees for burl， yeah， that's stupid.
People are out to strive. And if there is a burl on a tree， and they don't care whose property it's on， they are gonna get it themselves.
In front of me is one of the biggest burls to be recovered by the national park service. It's aspherical block. It was taken from a 400-year old tree which was cut down by the poachers in order to get access to it. While the theft of burls has been going on for years， recently they become more frequently and more brazen.
Well， this is the tree where that burl came from. And we are looking now at the burl cut from that burl that we saw just a few minutes ago.
The end of logging hit the town hard， but there is a bigger picture.
There were two million acres of redwood forest. In the last 150 years， more than 95%of that original primeval redwood forest has been logged. And that's why parks are here to protect that original forest.
Well， I mean， we got to preserve some， of course. But the problem of international park is they don't know how to coincide with locals. That's always been a problem with the international park. It's not just here.
译文：
世界上一些最高的树木因偷伐者的砍伐而受到威胁。前一段时间，一棵400年历史的古树被砍倒，红杉树森林公园因此部分关闭。以前以伐木为生的小镇附近有更多更大的树节正在被偷取，这些小镇的经济已经崩溃。
他们是全球最高的树木。其中一些已经有两千年的历史。我们来这里寻找被偷砍的树节。树节被裁成平板，经过打磨，就能成为上佳的木料。这就是树节砍伐的过程。没了树节，这棵树就失去了再生的能力。
人们为获取树节砍倒树木，这是愚蠢的行为。
人们要生存。如果树上有树节，他们也不管树的主人是谁，就动手砍伐。
我面前是国家公园管理局发现的最大树节之一。该树节呈球体，是偷猎者从一棵400年古树上摘取的。树节偷窃行为多年来都有，然而最近却变得更加频繁和猖狂。
这就是长树节的那棵树。我们现在观察刚才看到的树节的切口。
砍伐禁止令对城镇来说是个不小的打击，但是我们必须得考虑大局。
这里曾经有两百万英亩的红杉林。150年来，原始红杉林中95%以上的树木被砍倒，所以这里成立了保护原始森林的公园。
我们确实保护了一些树木。但国际公园的问题在于，他们不懂得因地制宜。这不是个例，而是国际公园普遍存在的问题。
