Legendary Hollywood Director

Eat something first, don't look at it.

At around eight in the morning, watching Lehman put a stack of newspapers on the dining table, and facing her carefully prepared breakfast—toast with blueberry jam and a glass of warm milk, Eva reprimanded in a low voice.

Okay, okay. Glancing at his angry girlfriend, Lyman calmly put away the newspaper and enjoyed the food.

In other words, the coverage of the movie's release in the newspapers is finally normal, and that's what he cares about.

At the same time, The Mist continues to harvest the box office.

After the three-day boom on weekends, on the working day of the next week, although people's enthusiasm for watching movies has dropped slightly, the overall trend is still very optimistic.

The attendance rate is still around 60%.

Monday, July 15.

The Mist reported a revenue of 17.62 million US dollars, while The Rival of the People ushered in a small rebound, and received 7.59 million;

As for the films in the same period, none of them can break through the $5 million mark, which is not a cause for concern.

The following Tuesday, the traditional discount day for theaters, The Mist earned 16.55 million in a single day at the box office. On Wednesday, it fell slightly again to 15.46 million...

Under the envy, jealousy and hatred of many small film companies, after the end of the next week, The Mist accumulated a total of 72.65 million US dollars at the box office in the next week.

Although it is a pity that it has not exceeded 100 million, but considering that this type of subject matter itself is limited, compared with investment, it is also very confident in the market. The Mist easily achieved the posture of being the champion of the weekly box office.

...

The Mist, an excellent film that confronts fear - after the end of this week, the North American box office of The Mist has exceeded 135.9 million, completely occupying the February schedule.

Director Lehman made another move, costing less than 70 million yuan, and he got back more than half of his investment in just 10 days, and won the box office championship for two weeks. People have to sigh again about his profitability.

The Mist is an excellent work in a horror shell that criticizes class contradictions, and the satire of religious fanatics is incomparably dark humor...

The Mist has made film critics excited this time. Articles about the interpretation of the film footage can be seen in newspaper columns almost every day.

With word of mouth slowly fermenting, the crew's hard-working roadshows and the lack of promotional and marketing expenses, by the third week, the box office trend of The Mist remained very good, and for the audience, their enthusiasm for discussing the film also more and more invested.

The blank at the end is very good, it perfectly reproduces the unfinished but profound thinking in the novel - that is, in the fog, the direction of travel is not visible, and the way out for the future is not visible, but it has not been abandoned yet. Before, bravely chase the light.

The Miss Carmody in it reminded me of the most common stock market position, selling a piece of good news first, pulling up the stock price, attracting retail investors and various investment funds to be optimistic, raising the market, and then actively operating, and finally let the investors. They all believe that her company is in good profit, the performance and financial report data disclosed are not good, and the market continues to rise. As a result, when the scene was good, the dealer took the initiative to sell, frantically cashed out, caused panic, and cut the meat at the bottom... ps: at After Carmody's death, those believers were hiding everywhere, and they looked like investors who were crazy to follow the trend and sell without saying a word.

Ha ha.

The section of the middle supermarket is really ironic about the psychological division of the people, and the irony is also cold. In the horror and despair, the outbreak of negative emotions is too terrible. Poor people of death, I don't know how much hatred they will have at that moment, each of them is not a direct murderer, but each of them is an accomplice.

This movie emphasizes one thing. In the face of disaster, whoever demagogifies people's hearts should die.

...

On February 23, The Mist dropped to $11.57 million at the box office.

Under the active operation of Blue Butterfly Pictures, the decline is only less than 30%, which is really rare.

After all, this is only a horror genre, and the cycle life of the show is usually not high.

According to normal market rules, love and comedy are the types that can keep the box office for long-term screenings.

Of course, this box office still surprised many film studios secretly, but in addition to being surprised, they felt that the competition pressure at the box office was not too great, and there was still a lot of market left.

In the following week, The Mist has always maintained a very benign downward trend, with neither the possibility of a sharp collapse nor the possibility of a sharp rebound.

Three weeks later, the North American box office of The Mist has accumulated 178.5 million, and there is no suspense to break the 200 million domestically. According to the prediction made by Blue Butterfly Pictures for the market, as long as there is no dark horse at the box office in the schedule, the North American box office of this film will not be suspenseful. The drop point should be around 220 million.

Under the operation of Blue Butterfly Pictures, at the end of the second week, Mist began to release copies in overseas regions, although most regions will not play Mist at home like the United States, and the resources are very skewed. sharp.

However, under the influence of the quality of the film itself and the excellent reputation of watching the film, the momentum of overseas screenings is not bad. Although it does not look like North America, after a week of screening, it basically sits at the top of the weekly box office charts in major regions. .

Even in France, because of Lehmann's own appeal and the media's perennial follow-up reports, there is a kind of concept of fighting for his hometown, and he also broke the box office record of the local horror movie genre. is the highest box office.

The more serious political atmosphere like Germany is also quite interested in the various thoughts revealed in The Mist, rather than the very brainless bloody American horror films.

Apart from these two areas, there is not much to say about the rest.

For example, in the United Kingdom, Belgium, and even the Middle East, South Korea or Japan, local audiences are not very fond of The Mist.

But even so, with so many distribution markets, all of them add up to a considerable amount of wealth. It has successfully exceeded 80 million in more than a week. It also announced that Mist has not yet participated in the offline operation, and the announcement will be withdrawn. Invest in costs and start making profits.

And for the new year, 2005, Firefly Pictures had a good start, and this studio once again became the focus of media attention.

It's a pity that Lehmann is no longer a pure director. See you. After Spielberg established DreamWorks, he was also deliberately alienating the media and reducing exposure.

After all, he's the boss of a film company, and he still shows up all day, isn't that a loss?

Lyman is naturally the same.
