Heads Up Hollywood
Chapter 69 First Day Box Office
"Saving Private Ryan" opened in 2,807 theaters, "Society" opened in 3,184 theaters, "Godzilla" opened in 3,310 theaters, and "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" opened in theaters , also reached 3080, which is a veritable first rank.
When night fell, movie fans went to the cinema to watch this long-awaited movie.
On this night, all cinemas will arrange at least one screening hall to show two shows in two time periods from 19:00-21:00 and 21:00-23:00.
Nicole Kidman has already seen it overseas, but she still couldn't bear the impulse, so she asked her good friend and fellow Australian Naomi Watts to disguise herself and find out.
There were a lot of movie fans queuing at the door, and Nicole Kidman focused on the slogan on the poster: "Dawn Walker and Nicole Kidman teamed up to create an epic romantic movie. This summer, break the cold , warm your heart!"
This slogan is different from foreign ones. It is obviously playing around the edge of "Saving Private Ryan", because the copyright issue is not easy to say clearly.
Naomi Watts lowered her voice, "This slogan...is quite ambiguous."
Nicole Kidman shook her head, "You know, the distributors only care about the box office, and they don't care at all whether they will have inappropriate associations with everyone."
"You...how are you and him?"
"Who? My husband?"
Naomi Watts rolled her eyes, "Of course it's him, could it be Dunn? I don't know him!"
"Separation." Nicole Kidman responded casually, vaguely aware of the deep meaning in her words, and stared at him, "Do you want me to introduce Dunn for you?"
Naomi Watts admitted generously, "Yeah, in the whole of Hollywood, who wouldn't want to catch up with Dunn Walker?"
Nicole Kidman recalled her relationship with Tang En, her delicate brows were slightly frowned, "Honey, don't treat Tang En like a child, he is very aggressive."
Naomi Watts shrugged indifferently, "I know, it's been said in the newspapers. But I'm different from you, Nicole, you're married, you have no worries about food and clothing, but what about me? I'm single, and I live in poverty !"
"I'm sorry, Naomi, I have been of limited help to you during the years you have been in Hollywood." Nicole Kidman sighed.
"I didn't mean to blame you."
Nicole Kidman waved her bare hands, "Let's go in."
Walking into the screening hall, Nicole paid attention to the surrounding seats. This VIP screening hall with a capacity of 32 people was full, and she even saw a few familiar faces.
Soon, the entire auditorium fell silent, and after the opening animation of the publisher 20th Century Fox, another novel animation ushered in.
This animation production is obviously much more complicated and stunning than that of Fox Films. This is a vast universe surrounded by stars.
Then there was a wave of wormhole impact, and the entire big screen dimmed, as if time, space, matter, and galaxies all disappeared at this moment, and what was waiting was boundless blackness.
However, in this slightly depressing atmosphere, a dawn-like dawn suddenly rises, and the drumming-like soundtrack jumps onto the big screen with each letter fiercely and agitatedly.
D-U-N-K-I-N... Dunn.
Then, soon after "Dunkin," a word emerges, "Film."
"This... isn't this too ostentatious?" Naomi Watts was speechless as she watched the opening animation of Tang En Pictures.
This metaphor is too simple. It is describing Hollywood as a dark universe, and Tang En Pictures is the dawn.
Nicole Kidman has seen it many times and got used to it, "MGM's lion, Paramount's mountain, why don't they not show off?"
"That's..."
Nicole Kidman looked at her sideways, and whispered, full of mystery, "Never underestimate his ambition!"
The movie begins, and the first scene is Nicole Kidman facing the mirror, looking at the ugly self-pity.
Naomi Watts even heard exclamations from the screening hall.
Is this still the famous Hollywood beauty Nicole Kidman?
Dunn Walker dared to take such a beautiful woman in such a ghostly manner, it was so daring and frightening!
With the development of the plot, the ugly girl "Tula" faced the impact and pressure of family, society, culture and other aspects. A twist of fate.
Until the hero Ian Miller appeared, he was a high school teacher, and he had a group of young and lively students under him. With their joint help, "Tula" learned to dress up, make up, and socialize step by step, and finally in Made a splash at my cousin's birthday party!
"There are only lazy women in the world, no ugly women!"
Such lines made Naomi Watts empathize.
And she secretly looked at the indifferent Nicole Kidman beside her, feeling a little jealous in her heart out of nowhere.
We are all Australians, why can she get on Tom Cruise's thigh first, and then get the pursuit of Dunn Walker?
Why?
Watching Nicole Kidman's performance in the movie, which first suppresses and then rises, and finally shines, stunning the audience, Naomi Watts feels more uncomfortable while comforting her good friend.
...
On the second day of media reports, the headlines in the entertainment section almost all focused on "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", with mixed reviews.
"Los Angeles Times" wrote a film review titled "As Warm as Ever, Love as Old": "Compared with the cruelty of the last movie "Titanic", Dunn Walker's new work is full of warmth and a touch of emotion. Touched. The previous work was a vigorous love, and the new work is a love that is as gentle as water. It is hard to imagine that a twenty-year-old boy would have such a deep understanding of love."
"The movie has no complicated story, no amazing special effects shots, no complicated relationship between characters, just a simple love, funny and witty culture shock, it constitutes such a warm and humorous love movie, just like a glass of love Ordinary green tea with endless aftertaste."
"The screen and lens of the movie are bright and bright. Twain uses extremely impactful shapes to strengthen the performance of the theme. Although it may seem tricky, it is also a sharp weapon to quickly capture the mood of movie fans. Spielberg once said that big people are easy. Because of the dramatization of the story; small characters are not easy to resonate because they are ordinary and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Tang En used this movie to prove that he has the ability to control any story."
"I would like to praise the actress Nicole Kidman in particular. She has changed her beautiful appearance once she appeared on the stage. She is down-to-earth, starting from the ordinary, and growing and becoming beautiful step by step. This is almost for all girls in the world. Brings hope. Dawn Walker has brought out an Oscar actress Kate Winslet, will Nicole Kidman be next? Perhaps, it is worth looking forward to!"
Of course, the relatively serious "New York Times" is a gathering place for literary and artistic film critics. This is the biggest source of criticism. They think that the plot of this movie is too bizarre. In order to create a better performance, the director ignored the artistry. fail.
At the same time, he also vowed that "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" may make a lot of money at the box office, but in the awards season, there will be no good results.
But whether it's praise or criticism, Twain cares about everything. The target of his attention is last night's premiere box office.
Reese Witherspoon was wearing pajamas, took the documents from the maid, rubbed her hazy eyes, widened in surprise, ran over from the door, and threw herself into Tang En's arms.
"Hey honey, how much is the box office?"
"9.8 million dollars!"
"Saving Private Ryan" grossed $9.7 million on its first day, "Heroes" grossed $9.6 million on its first day, and "Godzilla" grossed $4 million on its first day...
Throughout 1998, "My Big Fat Greek Wedding", with an investment of 15 million US dollars, opened the box office on the first day, ranking first in the United States!
Natalie's phone call also came just right, "Twain, I watched your movie, it's really good!"
Hearing Natalie's suppressed excited voice, Tang En said with a heartfelt sweetness, "Thank you, Nat."
"Has the ticket office come out in advance?"
"Well, 9.8 million US dollars, ranking first this year!"
"Wow, that's amazing!" Natalie screamed excitedly, "Did Reese tell you that?"
"Yeah, uh..."
Dunn immediately realized that Natalie was talking nonsense!
Now in the early morning, the documents of 20th Century Fox must have been delivered directly to his home, and it was impossible for Reese, the secretary, to go to work so early.
"Hmph! Tang En, do it yourself!"
Natalie hung up the phone with an annoyed "bang".
