Disaster Artist

Although the Dome Cinema has various shortcomings, due to its superior geographical location and special location in the industry, many independent films have dreamed of being able to show here. As a window to senior film lovers, showing themselves is just like A special medal.

The famous director Kun Dabin has a soft spot for this place.

Although his own directorial work is not in his hands because of the relationship between the film company, the distribution and premiere rights are not in his hands, but he still said many times in public:

"My dream is to have my movie premiere in the dome."

The film company has repeatedly advised but failed again and again, and they also have a headache.

As for Kun Dabin himself, he made a special trip to the Dome Cinema every three or five days to join him. He liked the atmosphere here and the taste of the cinema manager's selection of films, and he has spared no effort to introduce this place to his friends. Many audience members have met him here, and More than once.

However, it is precisely because of its reputation that countless independent filmmakers have this idea, and it is naturally impossible for the Dome Cinema to satisfy everyone.

Therefore, the threshold for the Dome Cinema is very, very high. It is very rare to have an average of five brand-new movies on the big screen here throughout the year.

The chances are really slim.

Objectively speaking, the film festival is a better platform than the dome theater.

When Lu Qian and Ji Xu stood at the entrance of the dome theater, the two exchanged glances, the confusion in each other's pupils really made people laugh--

How did things get to this point?

"……What should we do?"

"...Are you going to ask directly?"

"That one should be the conductor, right? Does he know the theater manager?"

"Do they have an official website? Can you send an email or call directly?"

"...No, they don't have an official website."

The footsteps had already reached the destination, but her mind was still full of question marks. Thinking of the situation of the two, Ji Xu couldn't help but laughed out loud.

However, this is Lanchuan, this is Boxi, even though they have been rolling around here for several years, they are still at the bottom of the pyramid, and there are too many question marks waiting to be answered in the heavy fog above their heads. The only thing they can do It is to explore and move forward, and then adapt accordingly.

To be precise, welcome to the entertainment industry!

Ji Xu still regained his senses and patted Lu Qian on the shoulder, "Then go ahead and ask. We've been guessing here, and we won't have an answer."

Lu Qian shrugged, "I don't mind, just go and watch the movie."

The dome theater in front of you still maintains the retro decoration style. A huge silver dome is like an ice cream ball dotted on the dark brown cone. The mottled door is slightly worn out because it has not been renovated for many years, and the colorful neon colors are embellished. The glass window at the entrance of the theater.

Looking at it from a distance, it looks like a moving circus tent. It is hard to imagine that this is actually a movie theater.

However, after approaching, the sign above the main entrance can show the whole building, because the sign still maintains the old-fashioned style of half a century ago, with a white-bottomed signboard and black or red fonts, which are rearranged every day. The passers-by who come and go show today's platoons——

"Under the Shady Tree", "Into Space", "Kidnapping the Neighbor's Dog".

All of them are classic masterpieces from the past, which are worth re-savouring in front of the big screen. Moreover, the three films are romance, sci-fi and comedy, all of which are of different styles and can meet the requirements of fans of different types of films.

Lu Qian was talking to Ji Xu, "I should watch 'Into the Space' later. I've always wanted to enjoy it on the big screen, but I never had the chance." Then he walked into the entrance of the cinema, near the ticket window.

Inside sat a middle-aged man in his forties, with a shaggy beard and messy hair mixed with silver, black and brown, like a magpie's nest; a dark gray shirt wrinkled Babad didn't know how long it took to wash, and there was no problem with saying that he was a homeless person on the street.

However, his eyes are very good-looking, slightly narrowed into a slit due to his lazy smile, and he looks at the person who comes with an amiable tenderness.

It can be seen that he did not regard ticket sales as a job, but as a kind of enjoyment.

"Good morning, the next screening will start in five minutes. Do you want to go in?"

Because there is only one screening hall, there are no multiple choices when you come to the Dome Cinema. You can only choose to watch or not to watch the works that are being shown in the cinema, but the conductors are still actively soliciting every guest who comes.

Ji Xu took the initiative to lean up and said with a smile, "Give me two tickets."

He didn't explain his intention, so he bought two movie tickets first, waited for the movie tickets to be in his hands, and then handed Jiang Haowen's business card over, but he didn't know if this was the right approach, so he could only bite the bullet and say.

"We are producers and directors of an independent film. We just came out of Damen Films. Manager Jiang Haowen asked us to come here with a business card to find the theater manager. I wonder if he is in the theater now?"

After thinking about it, Ji Xu added.

"Alternatively, you can tell us his contact information, even by email~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and we can contact him directly."

In fact, there is another way to leave their contact information and wait for the contact of the other party, but this way is too passive, there is no way to do it except waiting hard, so Ji Xu did not say it, he still prefers Take the initiative to attack them.

The problem is, it's not up to them to decide.

The conductor seemed to have seen similar scenes countless times, without any accident or panic, he looked down at the business card in his hand, and then showed a smile, "Why don't you go to the movie first, I'll contact the manager and wait for the movie to end. There is news."

that's it?

Ji Xu expressed doubts, isn't there a better way?

For example, the conductors now contact the theater manager, and they're here to listen; it would be great if they could have a direct conversation with each other.

The conductor seemed to be able to see through Ji Xu's thoughts, and he immediately said, "I just bought a movie ticket, so don't waste it. This 'Deep in Space' film has been restored, with clearer colors and a more complete picture, especially It is the dark contrast in the space part that is more prominent, which is really a rare big-screen experience."

Lu Qian's eyes suddenly lit up, because he thought of the sci-fi classic "2001: A Space Odyssey" in his own time and space. Maybe you can compare it with this movie.

"Really? I've always wanted to watch this movie on the big screen. I've seen it on TV before, but the picture effect can't be compared to the big screen." Lu Qian was a little excited. He couldn't help leaning forward slightly, and his body language revealed an uncontrollable excitement.

Ji Xu: ...Wait, this gentleman, did you make a mistake? We're not here to watch a movie!
