Eighty-seven thousand dollars. This is a group of numbers, numbers without any meaning. Putting this group of numbers in different positions at that time can produce different effects. For example, this is the monthly salary figure, or the credit card fee this month, or the amount left in your bank. And when this number is placed in the box office position, the same is true. In the position of the total box office, it is unnecessary to look at it; even in the position of the weekly box office, it is a terrible number. However, if this number is placed in the box office of a single hall, then it is enough to dislocate everyone's jaw in shock.

Indeed, $87,000, that's the single-hall box-office figure for "Little Miss Sunshine."

In the history of North American films, there are not a few films that have exceeded the threshold of 100,000 at the box office of a single venue. When Evan Bell's work "Adapted Screenplay", which won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor before, was released, the box office of a single venue reached 120,000 US dollars. This figure ranks third in the single-house box office history of North American live-action films. But it is not easy for any movie to break through the $30,000 box office in a single venue, especially the larger the release range, the lower the box office per venue will be. When the "adaptation" set a record, it was shown in only seven theaters.

Now, "Little Miss Sunshine" has been released in 200 movie theaters, and has created a figure of 87,000 US dollars. It can definitely be said that it has set a new historical record, and it has created a series of records in the history of ** film. Neil D'Arcy said at the Toronto Film Festival. "Little Sunshine" has created a new era of pornographic movies! It now appears that it is.

**The highest box office in the first week of film history, **The highest box office in a single hall with more than 100 cinemas in film history. **The highest ranking North American box office in movie history..."Little Miss Sunshine" is jaw-dropping with a series of records, and Evan Bell has indeed shown everyone the energy of ** movies in his own way.

"Little Miss Sunshine" swept $17 million in its first week and was No. 4 on the first week of November's box-office charts -- which is what I've just said "**Movie history's North American box-office charts." top" position. This is a position that no other movie has ever been able to achieve.

With "Little Sunshine" setting the record in jaw-dropping fashion, all other works are eclipsed, whether it's "Four-Eyed Chicken" or "The Pot Cover", or "The Chainsaw", the collective Mute.

After "Four-Eyed Chicken" made 11 million at the box office on Friday, professionals predicted that the film could make at least $40 million in its first week after three days of the weekend. But the fact is, under the impact of "Little Sunshine Beauty". There is also the word-of-mouth influence of the movie itself. "Four-eyed Tianji" finally won only 38 million US dollars, which is still some distance from expectations. Although it won the No. 1 spot at the North American box office in the first week of November, this result definitely cannot satisfy Disney.

It seems that Disney's predicament has become more and more serious.

"Jiaojiatou" came in second with $34 million, and "Chainsaw" fell by more than 50 percent to only $20 million. Take the third place. "Little Miss Sunshine" took the fourth spot with a sturdy $17 million at the box office! After that, works such as "Legend of Zorro", "Spring. Heart. Ripple", "Dream Mercedes-Benz", "Good Night and Good Luck" were arranged in sequence.

The number of new works released in the second week of November also reached thirteen, among which the large-scale works include "Jedi Dragon", "Jumanji" and "Money or Life". But obviously, the power of these works is still slightly insufficient. Only the "Jumanji" launched by Sony Columbia Pictures, which cost $65 million, is aimed at the teenage market, and may divert the audience of "Four Eyed Chicken".

Of course, the biggest threat to "Four-eyed Tianji" is "Little Sunshine Beauty". The main audience of this road family movie is aimed at the middle class, and the audience with families is the most prominent. This is still intertwined with the audience of "Four-eyed Tianji" to some extent. Therefore, the excellence of "Little Sunshine Beauty" will only make it more difficult for "Four Eyed Chickens".

After achieving an incredible situation in the first week, "Little Sunshine" added 700 screening venues in one go in the second week of its screening, increasing the total number of screening venues to 900. With the increase in the number of screening venues, "Little Sunshine" continues the miracle of high-end movies, continues to make strides in this sunshine journey, and has created a $31,000 dollar with an unrivaled good reputation. The box office of the single hall rebounded strongly in the second week, and won the box office of 28 million US dollars, an increase of 200%. With a sweeping attitude, it achieved the biggest victory in the history of ** film, and continued to sting Focus Films, Disney Eyes.

The $28 million second-week weekend box office successfully put "Little Sunshine" on the road to making history, and after last week's fourth all-time record at the North American box office, this week went a step further. Overwhelming "Four-eyed Tianji" and other powerful competitors, it has successfully climbed to the top of the North American box office champion. This is the first time in the half century since the name "**movie" that a **movie broke through the siege and won the championship in the North American box office chart. This is definitely a historic breakthrough.

"Created a new era of **** movies!" This line once again became the annotation of "Little Sunshine Beauty".

A low-cost work with an investment of only 8 million, not to mention that it stayed in the hands of Focus Pictures for four years without seeing the light of day. Recalling the situation when Michael Armt was called heaven and earth should not be called dead, and then compare The miracle created now makes it more and more the mythical achievement of "Little Sunshine Beauty".

The box office of a single venue in the first week was 87,000 US dollars, and the box office of a single venue in the second week was 31,000 US dollars, and this was created when the venues were higher than 100. Unconsciously, "Little Sunshine" also Created an important record in North American film history: the first work to win the North American box office chart when it was released in less than 1,000 venues. For the first time in history!

Why "Little Sunshine" can arouse such far-reaching repercussions? It almost quickly became the topic of discussion for everyone in November.

Since the beginning of the 21st century, the United States has suffered a series of blows, such as the burst of the new economic bubble in 2001, the September 11 attack, the Iraq war in 2003... Under the circumstance of global economic overheating and asset bubbles, the excess supply of US dollars The limit has been reached, and along with it, the real estate, oil, copper and other industries have formed a terrible bubble. In addition, the birth of the euro has challenged the currency hegemony of the dollar. Especially in the past three years, the dollar has depreciated sharply against the euro for three consecutive years. As a direct result, the exchange rate of the dollar to gold has dropped by 17% this year. .

In short, the second round of financial crisis in the United States is quietly approaching.

From a macro point of view, the financial crisis is a series of figures, countless analysis reports, and the regulation of national policies... It seems that everything is too far away; but from the perspective of people's daily life, housing loans have risen, prices have risen, but wages Indeed, standing still, the unemployment rate is still high, which also makes people's lives increasingly difficult. Taking the middle class as an example, they are facing increasing pressure in life, their sense of frustration in career will be much higher than their sense of achievement, and their sense of satisfaction in life is gradually declining.

The situation of the Hoover family in "Little Miss Sunshine" is actually an ordinary family in this social situation, and it can also be regarded as the middle class. Husband Richard tried to start a business and publish his own book, but failed; wife Cher, whose career was unknown, but knew that the family was facing bankruptcy On the other hand, he represents intellectuals, but he encounters obstacles one after another in real life, and his homosexuality is destined to be incompatible with the mainstream; the eldest son Dwayne and the youngest daughter Oliver represent the thriving dream generation, and Dwayne wants to fly. The dream of the academy stubbornly used a dumb oath to fight, but in the end it ended with his own colorblindness; Oliver dreamed of a beauty pageant, and she worked hard, but the aesthetic standards that were out of tune with reality doomed Oliver's career. Dreams cannot be realized, but the story is finally interpreted in a special way.

Finally, there is Grandpa. Grandpa represents a part of the society who are fiercely competing with reality. Grandpa protests to real life in his own way, but the influence he can have is limited - he only teaches Oliver to dance, but still Unable to resist the universal aesthetic standards of beauty pageants, grandpa's death in the middle of his dream ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ also has far-reaching significance. First of all, Grandpa's death itself was the tragic end of the struggle between dreams and reality; secondly, Grandpa's death also triggered a series of events, including Dwayne's awakening, Oliver's persistence in beauty pageants, and the unity of the Hoover family.

Therefore, the story of "Little Sunshine" is actually a reflection of the American society that looks prosperous on the surface but contains countless crises. The theme of "Little Sunshine" is that Oliver's beauty pageant ended in failure, and it is derived that Evan Bell shoots pornographic movies in a mainstream way, expresses his position to the mainstream media, and demonstrates the charm of pornographic movies; but deeper The meaning is the embarrassment of the middle class facing the plight of life, the torment, helplessness, struggle and hope of the collision between ideals and reality.

This is not only a movie, but also a philosophical truth that reflects everyone's life, but it is presented in a witty and dark humorous way.

Therefore, "Little Sunshine" can win the praise of professional critics, win the audience's pursuit, and win the box office victory in the case of limited screening in 900 cinemas. It is not so much a movie or Evan Bell's victory. Rather, it is a kind of sustenance for people's suffering in life. This kind of black humorous laughter with tears, isn't it a portrayal of everyone's life.
