Hollywood Drawing

Cameron Diaz's appearance on "Good Morning America" ​​early Saturday morning attracted a lot of media attention before the show ended.

Today is a day off, and a large number of movie fans are preparing to enter the theater to watch the popular "The Return of the Clown", and they immediately remembered the beautiful and sexy Cameron Diaz.

Regardless of whether what she said was true or not, she did not say a bad word about Wayne. She spent the entire show praising Wayne, from his financial generosity to his kind personality, various gentlemanly behaviors towards women, and Obscure x ability.

These things have attracted the attention of many women. When someone found Wayne's previous photos in Vanity Fair, they immediately pushed him to the position of a friend of women and a lover of the public.

After all, Cameron Diaz described Wayne as a perfect boyfriend in his conversation. For a time, his popularity among North American women was as popular as that of several handsome Hollywood stars.

"Good at "training" actors, huh? Respect women, huh? Have animal-like sexual abilities, huh?"

The TV was still playing, and Naomi Watts rolled her eyes with a faint sarcasm on her lips, looking at the expressionless man next to her.

The housekeeper Hela stood behind the sofa, staring at the wall intently. The assistant lady also looked at the TV, showing an expression of admiration for the woman talking on the screen.

Suddenly, Wayne felt a pain in his waist. Naomi Watts stood close to him and stretched out her white fingers to give him a touch.

"Nami, do you think what she said is true?" He smiled helplessly and sighed softly. "But I must say that this circle can really transform people. I didn't expect that the straightforward and enthusiastic Cameron Diaz would understand this set of things after only a few months of fame."

He could even imagine that the topic caused by this time would definitely not be big, and it would never be too small. This woman picked the time very well.

As long as Cameron Diaz tastes the sweetness, he will definitely mention Wayne Greenberg when he is interviewed by the media in the future. But he didn't take it to heart. Being dragged out by others to gain popularity meant that he was already considered a big shot, and this kind of thing was unavoidable.

What bothered Wayne when he thought about it was that other women might follow suit, and he was considering whether to warn them in advance.

Naomi Watts lay on his shoulder, stared at the woman on the TV, and whispered in his ear: "Do you respect women? This is the biggest joke! Also, those perverted things in the bathroom Son, isn't she the one who brought it?

Come on, Director Greenberg, tell me how you "train" the actors, use those perverted things, and put them all into the woman on TV..."

"Nami!"

Hearing that she was going too far, Wayne interrupted her with a sullen face. Then when he saw Naomi Watts's smiling eyes, he smiled helplessly and spread his hands.

"Okay, Nina, turn off the damn TV. I remember you are very familiar with Cameron Diaz, right? Then don't watch her act on TV. Let her act for you live when she has time. One game!”

Seeing her boss getting a little angry, Nina shrugged, stood up and turned off the TV.

The assistant lady put away her teasing look and said to him: "Do you need me to call her to warn her? But boss, now you will be a friend of women for a while. I think this is not a bad thing, is it?" "

"Forget it, I'm going to walk the dog." Wayne waved weakly and walked out of the living room with his two golden retrievers.

He doesn't plan to pursue Cameron Diaz. This kind of thing will never be avoided. Besides, he has taken enough advantage of that woman, why can't he let others take the opportunity to hype her up?

It's just that I didn't expect that she would dare to use such a little trick in this kind of program that is broadcast live throughout North America. Again, no matter what personality a woman has, once she enters this circle, she will inevitably undergo huge changes due to fame and fortune. .

However, the Australian beauty reminded him that since you like to ride on the heat, you have to pay the due price. Maybe all those good things can be tried on this woman...

No matter what Wayne is muttering in her heart now, Cameron Diaz's behavior has indeed achieved the effect she wanted. A large number of gossip media have discussed it, and various versions of the story have emerged one after another in just one day.

New Line also used this reason to put the video tape of "The Man in Disguise" on sale one day in advance, that is, on Saturday afternoon. The specific sales quantity is unknown to the outside world, but you can go to Cameron Diaz to buy it. male movie fans, but they definitely account for a large proportion.

Warner Bros. has been creating a tense atmosphere in the media during this period, giving the public the illusion that "The Return of the Clown" will be withdrawn at some time. This is completely in line with Wayne's idea of ​​​​taking advantage of the popularity and release it as soon as possible. Interested movie fans rushed to the theater to get more box office figures before the popularity subsided.

After watching the film, a considerable number of fans expressed doubts. They felt that although the film was very scary, it was not enough to scare people to death.

But it was just doubt, and some fans also praised it. The film is indeed much better than traditional horror films. It is a story that people can sink into, allowing many people to find childhood memories.

Whether it is some large-scale bloody scenes or the analysis of the growth of children's families, the movie has successfully aroused controversy among movie fans. This is the purpose of Warner Bros. Only when there is controversy will people watch the movie again and find the answer to the controversy.

The film market is always so weird. The more controversial a film is, the more it will attract audiences to watch.

A movie as good as "The Shawshank Redemption" that everyone admits, but there is no market for a controversial horror movie. This kind of thing has happened a lot in the past, and there may be more in the future.

All the marketing done by Warner Bros. and all the debates caused by guiding public opinion were finally transformed into box office figures as originally envisioned.

On the first day of the second weekend in North America, "The Return of the Clown" surprised Warner Bros. executives with a box office of 201. Unexpectedly, after Saturday's box office statistics were released, it even shocked the audience.

Amid all the turmoil, the film once again grossed US$25.83 million on Saturday. The market potential was instantly revealed, and it successfully defeated the 4 box office champions of "The Shawshank Redemption" on the second day of its release.

When Sunday passed and Monday morning came, "The Return of the Clown" had its second weekend result, beating "The Shawshank Redemption"'s $11.3 million, and undoubtedly retained its weekend box office crown.

In the two weekends after the film was released, the North American box office revenue was US$181.53 million. The speed of box office collection shocked all insiders.

This really echoes what Wayne said to Nina. If you are not afraid that horror movies will not last long, then send all the fans into the theater as soon as possible to drain the box office potential in a short period of time.

When a new working day arrived, all major media outlets sang their praises unanimously. The entertainment section of the "Dallas News" published an article saying: "Although the film is positioned as an R-rated film, the real and beautiful teenage emotions and thought-provoking growth in it are The process is worthy of every public movie fan to buy a ticket to watch!"

"Washington Post" praised: "This is a horror version of "Stand By Me." As a movie in which the protagonist is a child, even if this movie takes off the horror coat, it still shows the audience many social problems, including patricide, love affairs, and so on. Nymphomaniacs, school bullying, twisted parent-child relationships, racial issues, hazy sexual enlightenment and first love, children's friendship, director Wayne Greenberg put a lot of material in it, but he was still able to tell the story in an orderly and step-by-step manner. Bu Jingxin!"

The famous film critic and Pulitzer Prize winner Roger Ebert published a film review in his own column in the Chicago Sun-Times for the third time, and also praised this alternative horror film:

"Other horror films want you to be afraid, but this one is different. It keeps telling you not to be afraid! A good horror film does not necessarily tell a particularly scary story, or it can tell a story like director Wayne Greenberg. A particularly good story with appropriate horror elements, which is also great!

Especially the long shot of the young actor diving, which was shot by director Greenberg, was so youthful and beautiful, and the performance of several young actors was also very outstanding and very real!

I have to say that Stephen King's story is very good, and it has become even better after being adapted into film and television. The confrontation between school violence and domestic violence, the unity and friendship of teenagers. This story is obviously not over yet. Pennywise the Clown is obviously still alive and will come out to cause trouble again. We look forward to the second part! "

At the end of the review, Roger Ebert gave his iconic thumbs up.

A big shot at a film and art academy also made an exception and accepted an interview with the Los Angeles Times. This Jewish film senior also praised Wayne Greenberg's "The Return of the Clown":

"Greenberg's films are as profound as ever. The strange stories of people's panic are wrapped in the core of adolescent growth and unrest. The analysis of various social problems is profound enough, such as school bullying, patricide, love affair, extreme maternal love, etc., typical problems The image of parents is portrayed as indifferent and even blatantly evil, which helps the public to better understand the problems that exist in reality.

When those children fight against the clown who seems to be the most evil, they also have to resist the evil side of each other's lives. Such a horror film that portrays social issues profoundly is like the cruelest youth story! "

This is a commercialized and diversified society. No one can deny the influence of media groups. Warner Brothers began to mobilize the media even more crazily after seeing more benefits.

Even Zi Zi in the White House, who had been involved in gossip with the media group, briefly expressed his views to the media after watching the video. "This movie reflects many social issues, and children's issues must receive more attention!"
