Hollywood legendary director

Take the example of "Along with the Song", which was still a hit in the original time and space, the production cost of 28 million yuan, the global harvest of more than 119.5 million.Still partial to literature and art.

No matter how you look at it, it can be regarded as a good project, not to mention other people's film reviews.

But this time.

It was miserable to be squeezed by "Water Monster in the Lake".

The top eight of the weekly rankings were unable to enter, ranking ninth with 9.83 million at the box office-sixth in the original version, with more than 12 million.

It is directly 12% less than the previous life. This is the normal squeeze phenomenon of popular movies against movies of the same period.

Of course, people follow the niche word-of-mouth flow, and in the long run, the total box office will not collapse too much.

However, when the audience has a choice and their eyesight is raised, whether they can enjoy a boring movie that requires patience to watch slowly, there must be a question mark.

Nowadays, the movie market is the same,

When the audience has many entertainment means to pass the time, it has an influence on many movies.

If the quality of the movie is not good, the natural risk of the bad movie market will be much higher.

Counting forward, there are very few projects that lost more than 50 million yuan. After entering the new millennium, they suddenly increased.

Is it because of the amount of investment and the total number of projects?

not quite.

In this, the audience also has more choices. The movie is not good, so let's not watch it. Therefore, once the blockbuster has to be compensated, the compensation is often miserable and bloody.

Once again, look back to the North American film market in November.

"The Monster in the Lake" still leads the way.

After the start to dominate the rankings, on the working day of Monday of the following week, he directly won 23.78 million, and the decline was controlled within 30%, which is still acceptable.

Moreover, Warner's second wave of propaganda has arrived.

The gorgeous box office data in the first weekend quickly appeared on the entertainment front pages of major newspapers and magazines, and successively received recommendations from the traffic portals of the online community——

"The power of the water monster swept the movie market and completely started the Christmas battle."

"It broke 100 million in the first weekend, and "Water Monster in the Lake" directly detonated the enthusiasm for movie watching. After the year, the war took the lead to usher in the first strong opponent."

"Sex and blood have always been the two elements in the movie that can stimulate the audience's adrenaline. However, "Water Monster in the Lake" uses humans to fight against unknown giants in the grand scene, which arouses the exclamation of fans.

"Hollywood Variety" also reported: "A masterpiece that lives up to expectations, undoubtedly the top of the list. Will "The Monster in the Lake" break the personal box office record of director Lehman Last?"

"Director Lehmann, who focuses on niche themes, seems to think of trying to please the more mainstream audience market after "Bad Guy". He is always so unexpected, but always successful."-"Los Angeles Pioneer" Newspaper

"With such a disparity in strength, how can the box office performance of "Water Monster in the Lake" not be outstanding?"-"The Observer"

......

New York, Brooklyn.

Ryman, who was hotly discussed by the media, came to the filming set of "Prada".

Before he left Firefly Pictures, Alfonso officially joined the collaboration as a personal studio.

At this time, most people on the crew looked at Lehman with weird eyes, even director David Frankel.

This is not a joke made by Lyman, but the performance of his director's work really shocked a group of people, especially the direct lineage brought by David's own crew.

Which of them had the experience of breaking 100 million in the first weekend, but this one, twice.

And it's no better than "Spider-Man", which is an original project, which is based on the audience's welcome and quality reputation.

This kind of data, this kind of strength, but also to host the production of the "Prada" project, how can people not be surprised.

But Lehman obviously doesn't think so.

He is not only a director, but also the owner of a studio. It must be irresponsible to always care about his own affairs.

Although he is inferior to professionals such as Joseph and Liam in management, he is still very confident about the film and television production he is familiar with.

What's more, these people don't understand that "Prada" also has such a selling potential, how can Lehman not have a snack.

Moreover, David's qualifications are still shallow.

Although this product has made a lot of achievements in the field of TV dramas, in the movie, it can only be said that the identity of the newcomer has just been asked, and it may not be able to suppress the Oscar nails like Meryl or the star florets like Annie.

Executive producer Blake has said more than once that the crew is uneasy. Meryl often asks to change the scene to increase the film shots and try her best. Annie is not a fuel-efficient lamp. On the one hand, her salary is reduced due to poor performance. She couldn't keep up with Meryl's performance, and her heart was suffocated.

It may be broken when the crew is fairly stable.

Obviously, David can't manage it.

It's not that he has a problem with his ability. First of all, someone must listen to him. After listening, he must accept the arrangement.

One or two refused to accept him, and the clever woman still finds it difficult to cook without rice. What can he do?

Of course, in order not to cause trouble, David didn't say anything about these difficulties, but the director that Lehman liked, of course, had to help.

Here, David's mood is complicated.

The day before yesterday, Annie was still refusing to put on ugly makeup and went to battle without makeup, feeling that her image was ruined;

Today Lehmann was just watching, and she was submissive.For the same reason, there is Meryl Streep. When others made mistakes during the scene, they couldn't keep up their emotions, so they always gave a cold face. Today's attitude has changed so much.

Said it wasn't for someone to see, Guixin.

The crew of the film crew are all human beings, so you don't know if you see through.

After all, Hollywood is such a place, rallies and stepped on the lows, to indulge in big directors, and to ignore small directors.

At the time when Lehman was just making a movie, it was difficult to find a crew to get a safe salary, and it was difficult to accumulate experience. One can imagine how many barriers there would be in the industry.

David is naturally very grateful for Lehman’s help, and he may also suddenly understand that Lehman must attach great importance to this project-otherwise he would not have his movie still in the next week's market where the box office is most likely to come from Los Angeles. new York.

You know, it hasn't been two days since the film officially started shooting.

During the preparation period of more than half a month, I was busy preparing for the main venue setting and props.

The only discordant on the set is Lauren, the original author.

Behold, I was upset, but because of the need to fulfill the contract, I had to pinch my nose to admit it.

Otherwise, her loss could be huge, and the cost of breach of contract is a huge sum of money, especially involving more than 30 million US dollars in project production. She could not afford to sell her.

At this moment, she was heartbroken looking at a bunch of gorgeous costumes for actors to choose from.

Of course, these clothes are sponsored by Prada. Many styles are the main styles of this year's autumn and winter seasons, but now they are chosen by people like the street stalls everywhere.

Of course, this should also depend on the personal view of luxury goods.

After all, after being worn, Prada can't take it back and resell it, isn't it just a stall.

From a certain point of view, luxury goods are the most time-sensitive futures. The more you understand, the more you will feel that the actual value of those simple pieces of fabric is so high.

Of course, the fashion industry doesn't think so. Even if it is to harvest the people's IQ tax, it will also satisfy a certain kind of show off, mixed with a great heart demand.

However, as a white-collar worker who is not very high-income, Lauren is usually ecstatic and shy with these big names. To put it bluntly, he wants to be too expensive and is not willing.

Occasionally accumulating a sum of money for authorship, and spending a lot on it.

Seeing a basic little black dress from Prada being thrown aside by the staff, the eliminated clothing cannot be matched. It can only be painful.

Moreover, she could only feel even more unhappy when she watched the movie script inconsistent with the original.

But the world is always so unfair.

20% of the wealthy class is in charge of more than 80% of social wealth. This is the "28th law."

You are not the 20% class group, so naturally you can only look at the distribution of wealth or power by others.

What's more, Lauren himself did not write a novel completely based on his experience in "vogue".

The original work of "Prada" and past experience and the movie currently being made should be three stories and three lives.

Miranda is not Anna Wintour, nor does it need to secretly sarcasm.
