[US Entertainment] 1994

"I like him because of the non-mainstream styling incident last time, haha, before Josh, I never thought that Hollywood stars would go out dressed like that!"

"Wow, yes, he has such a cool look. After I fell in love with him, I went back to his movies. The DVD version of "Uninhibited Sky" has been released, and it is available in video stores. "My Watch" Brother Vinny I haven't found a DVD yet, but my sister went to the cinema to see that movie and it was really good."

"Is "Boogie Sky" available in the video store, that would be great!"

A group of young people discussed each other sentence by sentence, and soon reached the end of the line.Not long after buying the tickets, the next movie was about to be shown. Several people gathered together to buy popcorn and Coke, and walked into the movie theater with each other's shoulders excitedly.

Lily was also among them. She was holding a cup of popcorn in one hand and a Coke in the other. Between her fingers was the poster that she asked the conductor for just now. Although the movie hadn't started yet, she had already talked with this group of children. The partners are full of expectations for the movie.

She also believed that Josh would not let her down.

More than two hours is a long time, but the process of enjoying the movie is not boring at all.Seeing Lieutenant Colonel Frank in full swing, there were bursts of exclamations in the movie theater; when Charlie and Lieutenant Colonel Frank supported each other to save each other, the sentimental girls even had red eyes; and at the end of the movie When the wise and venomous Lieutenant Colonel Frank defeated the hypocritical principal, as many students in the movie did, most of the young people present gave out enthusiastic shouts - although it is not a civilized behavior to shout loudly in a movie theater , but at the end of the movie, middle-aged and elderly audiences just looked at this group of excited children with tolerant smiles. There is no doubt that this movie resonated with them.

There is no shortage of unfair incidents in schools.

The hypocrisy and harshness of principals and directors, the interference in students’ lives by teachers who don’t know how to teach, the rich class oppressing the poor class, school violence...students have been bullied for various reasons, and when they were humiliated, no one People like Lieutenant Colonel Frank stepped up to give them courage.

Charlie was lucky, and so was Lieutenant Colonel Frank.

The moment she walked out of the movie theater, Lily Evans first sighed, and then showed a bright smile. Sure enough, Josh did not disappoint her. This movie seemed to bring her back to the high school campus. Working hard, she naturally ignored a few good friends she had in junior high school. When she tried to restore the friendship, she found that the campus was already full of gossip about her, so the so-called friendship naturally ceased to exist.

Now she is a sophomore, and she has entered one of the top-ranked Ivy League schools in the United States. She is surrounded by the best classmates. Lily Evans has the best plan for her future. Those who say bad things about her Lily Evans thinks that this is the best reward for her isolated high school career.

Although there is no Lieutenant Colonel Frank by her side, but——

Lily showed a bright smile, she herself is Lieutenant Colonel Frank.

After "Scent of a Woman" was released, Josh anxiously waited for the release of the box office data.

The amount of investment in this film is not huge, and it has achieved a good reputation during the awards season, so there is actually no need to worry too much about the box office figures.

But as an actor, especially an ambitious actor, the box office results of each movie are very important.

Soon, the box office data of the movie came to Josh.

Since its large-scale release on January 1, the film has achieved a total box office score of 8 million US dollars in the three days of the weekend, ranking first on the weekend box office list.

Looking at the entire 1992, such box office data is already impressive.

After all, Tom Cruise's "The Righteousness" opened at only about $1500 million at the box office, but that movie has already occupied the top ten positions in the year-end box office inventory list.

When it comes to box office appeal, Al Pacino and Josh naturally cannot compare with the new generation of superstars like Tom Cruise.

Producer Universal Pictures is very pleased with it.

On the one hand, the box office of the film in its first week has broken the prediction of Universal Pictures. A week ago, Universal Pictures believed that the box office of the film after its large-scale release would be around 600 million US dollars, but now, the real feedback data has reached 600 million. more than double that of the dollar.

In fact, precisely because the box office forecast for "Scent of a Woman" is conservative, the number of theaters in which the film is released on a large scale is only in the early 1000s, which is much less than those blockbusters that are screened in 2000 theaters at the same time.

In addition to the impressive weekend box office, the movie's single-house box office is even more amazing!

It was released in 1083 theaters, and the total box office reached 1336 million, which means that the film's single-house box office has a full box office of more than 1 US dollars, which is simply an amazing feat!

Universal Pictures made a decisive decision and asked to increase the number of theaters showing "Scent of a Woman". Early January happened to be the off-season for movie releases, and the Christmas craze had faded away. There were only a few audiences in the theaters. For a movie that can fill the seats, the theater will certainly not let the venue be empty. In the second week, the number of theaters for the movie immediately reached more than 1.

There is also a reason why Universal Pictures asked to increase the number of theaters.

The film's premiere at the end of December is to catch up with next year's Golden Globes and Oscar selections, and the large-scale release in January is to leverage the influence of the Golden Globes.

"Scent of a Woman" has gained a good reputation during the awards season, and Universal Pictures hopes that the film will usher in another wave of box office growth after the Golden Globe Awards ceremony.

Although judging from the current development trend, "Scent of a Woman" can achieve excellent box office results even without relying on the Golden Globe Awards.

On Monday, "New York Times", "Los Angeles Times", "Hollywood Reporter" and other media reported that "Scent of a Woman" had a good box office performance, and it is expected to make another success with the help of the Golden Globe Award.

On August 8th, after a week of large-scale releases and word-of-mouth fermentation, the box office of "Scent of a Woman" reached the top again. After increasing the number of more than 15 theaters, the box office of "Scent of a Woman" increased instead of falling , three days on the weekend, with a box office score of 500 million US dollars.

Although the single-house box office performance at this time has declined, the single-house figure of nearly 1 still makes many people in the industry stunned.

The three-day box office of the weekend was 1578 million U.S. dollars, and the North American box office of the film reached 4326 million U.S. dollars!

Looking at 1992, such a box office figure has been able to reach the 38th place in the annual box office list!

And it's only the second week of the movie's release!

The Golden Globe Awards will be held on January 1, which happens to be next week. It is conceivable that after the final results of the Golden Globe Awards are announced, the word-of-mouth of "Scent of a Woman" will definitely ferment again. There is no doubt that this movie It will inevitably occupy a position in the top 24 at the box office, or even in the top ten.

On the North American box office list in 1992, the top ten films were "The League of Pink" starring Tom Hanks and Geena Davis. The film made a total of more than 1 million US dollars in box office in North America score.

The box office of "League of Pink" in the first weekend was only 1389 million US dollars.

By the second week, this figure was only left with more than 1100 million US dollars, and the cumulative box office in the two weeks of its release was not as good as the current "Scent of a Woman".

"League of Pink" doesn't even have the bonus of the Golden Globes.

In contrast, the box office of "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea" starring Tom Cruise had a box office of more than 1500 million US dollars in the first weekend, more than 1100 million US dollars in the second week, and more than 1300 million US dollars in the third week, which also achieved a slight decline. , the growth trend is very similar to "Scent of a Woman".

It is worth mentioning that "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea" was released on December 12, and it is still showing in theaters, with a cumulative box office of nearly 11 million. Although it cannot pose any threat to the box office ranking of "Scent of a Woman , but in the eyes of industry insiders, the final box office of "Scent of a Woman" and "The Heroes of Yihai" will be fixed at a relatively close position.

After all, Tom Cruise and Jack Nicholson also won the nominations for Best Actor and Best Supporting Actor in a Drama Series at the Golden Globe Awards for "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea". The nominations for the best picture in the drama category can be described as each other's biggest competitors.

What is certain, though, is that the weekend box office numbers of more than $1500 million are stellar.

Of all the films released in 92, there were only a dozen or so that grossed more than $1500 million in their opening weekend.

The box office of "Crazy Nuns" was only more than 1100 million US dollars in the first weekend, and "Bodyguard" had 1600 million US dollars. Except for a few commercial blockbusters with amazing first-week box office figures, there are very few box office figures that can surpass "Scent of a Woman" number.

The hanging heart of Universal Pictures finally let go. For this old film company, 1992 was definitely a bad year.Universal also produced a lot of movies this year, but the box office results of most of the films were extremely bad. Looking at the entire list, Universal's films currently rank highest are those starring Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman "Earth Ambition", with a box office of more than 5800 million US dollars, ranked ... 20.

That's right, as one of the famous seven major Hollywood film industries, Universal's best score is No. 20.

Buvi Films' "Aladdin" ranked first, 20th Century Fox's "Home Alone 2" ranked second, and Warner's "Batman Returns" and "Lethal Weapon 2" ranked third and fourth. This year's Universal can only rely on this "Scent of a Woman" to occupy a place in the top ten.

It can be described as very miserable.

But for the entire crew, the bad situation of Universal Pictures is not a bad thing.
