Popular recommendation:
Reasonable fan affection is always the best way to impress the audience. The same is true of this “Titanic”, 230 minutes of super long foreshadowing, and finally at the end of the film, a poignant love is rendered.
The combination of a poor boy and a rich girl has always been an enduring theme whether it is on the big screen or in literary works. James Cameron used a ship that has been in silence for decades to once again bring the same The love story moved to the audience’s eyes.
The clichéd tragic ending, which Hollywood has used for decades to prove, is still the best use of the most touching force. Even if the sobbing in the theater is getting louder and louder, the audience can’t stop it. Jack is in the cold sea water. sink.
Ruth on the big screen also fulfilled her promise to Jack in the end. She survived well. According to Jack’s request, she completed her happy life completely.
In the sad cry of the audience, Celine Dion’s singing slowly sounded. A classic “My Heart Will Go On” appeared with the subtitles after the movie. This song will undoubtedly be related to “My Heart Will Go On”. Together with the Titanic, resounding throughout the world.
“Crash…”
“boom!”
At the moment when the lamps in the theater were turned on, more than a thousand audience members stood up almost in tacit understanding, applauding the movie, the main creative team, and the touching love on the big screen. Everyone was clapping their palms with all their might, and there was an endless stream of women shouting “Jack” in the theater.
“Great movie, great love.”
This is the compliment that countless guests and audiences blurted out. Even if the main creators of the crew frequently bowed and clapped for the curtain call, the enthusiasm of the audience was still very high.
“Where’s Ruth?”
“Yeah, why isn’t Ruth here?”
There are almost all the famous and surnamed creators of the crew, but the important Ruth is missing from the big screen. Many viewers only found out after a little calmer that Ruth on the big screen is not here.
“The media said that the ship was full of misfortune, and it was definitely not a fabrication.”
The audience began to leave the stage after five minutes of applause. Tim Burton and Johnny Depp, together with Wayne and others, prepared to send blessings to the crew, and then went to 20th Century Fox together. Hosted social gatherings.
Seeing that several women were looking at him, the gothic genius director shrugged, turned his head and swept around to make sure there was no one else nearby, and then continued to whisper, “The English girl who plays Ruth, I heard that On the day of the premiere of the film, my boyfriend suddenly died of cancer, so he never showed up.”
Naomi Watts covered her mouth in surprise, the movie just ended, so that her sensibility has not been put away. “That’s such a shame, God.”
Several men shook their heads slightly. No one took this gossip seriously. This circle will never be as beautiful as in the movie. As long as the dead person has nothing to do with them, no one will take it too seriously.
Especially Wayne, he thought of it at the first time, but it was a pity. Some words can’t be said clearly, but after being in touch with the film marketing guru Bruce Rosenblum for a long time, he naturally put on a similar film marketing thinking.
It’s a pity that it was only Kate Winslet’s boyfriend who died. If it is her, then the revenue of this big ship is probably…
In fact, he doesn’t blame him for thinking like this at all. That guy James Cameron is an out-and-out tyrant on the set. Accidents occur frequently during filming. There have been many media reports, and Kate Winslet She has also personally admitted that once she almost drowned in the sea.
Shaking his head vigorously, Wayne felt a little stunned. At least when “Batman: The Dark Knight” was released, he didn’t deliberately think about letting Nicolas Cage have an accident. In this way, he was really A conscientious capitalist.
The premiere of the movie came to an end, and the reception held by 20th Century Fox and Paramount became a carnival for media reporters. The Hilton Hotel not far from the cinema has frequently appeared various celebrities and big names in the circle, and the organizers even Ingeniously, a small red carpet was arranged in front of the hotel.
Several people simply got rid of the harassment of reporters. After arriving at the banquet hall of the hotel, they nodded their heads and dispersed, and began to chat with people from all walks of life.
Socializing is always the main theme of this kind of cocktail party, which is vividly interpreted by the men in suits and leather shoes in the hall and the ladies in formal evening dresses.
No matter what kind of virtue everyone has in private, at least in formal occasions, they all look like polite elites. Of course, I had to ignore the men and women who looked right in the middle. Before entering the elevator, they couldn’t wait to stick together.
“How do you feel about the movie?”
The group had just found a corner and sat down. Twentieth Century Fox’s CEO Townsend-Rothman, along with a relatively unfamiliar middle-aged lady, walked over with a smile on their faces.
“Hi, Townsend.”
Wayne stood up, first shook hands with Townsend Rothman, and greeted enthusiastically. Then stand in place, waiting for the other party’s introduction.
“Wayne, this is Ms. Shirley Lansing, CEO of Paramount Pictures.”
After Townsend-Rothman said hello, he immediately took a small step aside and introduced the middle-aged woman in a professional skirt with a smile. “Sherry, directed by Wayne Greenberg.”
“Good evening, Mr. Greenberg.”
“Nice to meet you, Ms. Lansing.”
After a few decent greetings, several people sat down again. During this process, both Shirley Lansing and Wayne looked at each other with undisguised observational eyes.
“How is it? Tell me about your feelings. How do you think “Titanic” will perform in the theater market?”
Beckoning to the secretary behind him, Townsend-Rothman took a humidor, cut out a cigar and threw it to Wayne, tilted his head and asked, “Hey, you should understand what I mean, with your Professional market vision, how do you feel about the movie.”
“Titanic” took more than three and a half years from the initial preparations to the completion of the filming. During this period, because of James Cameron’s various bounced tickets, he kept chasing after 20th Century Fox’s ass. Money, at one point, made several 20th Century Fox executives want to end the moratorium on the project.
If it weren’t for the fact that Paramount was found to be the victim, it would be hard to say how the project “Titanic” would end. The hundreds of millions of dollars invested in this project one after another are all the working capital of Twentieth Century Fox, and the pressure on Townsend-Rothman is actually very great.
Even now, 20th Century Fox is gritting his teeth and making all kinds of investment in the film’s announcement, so he will ask these questions when he comes up. Almost everyone in the circle knows that the young man on the opposite side has a vision in the business field. crack shot.
“James is a genius!”
Even Shirley Lansing, who was on the side, was stunned. No one expected that Wayne’s evaluation would be so high. It wasn’t even over yet, the words that the other party said after spitting out a large puff of cigar smoke caused the CEO of Twentieth Century Fox and the CEO of Paramount to open their mouths involuntarily.
“In my opinion, the performance of this “Titanic” in the theater market will not lose to my “Batman: The Dark Knight” at all!” Seeing the surprised two, Wayne’s one The fingers tapped rhythmically on the table one by one, with a smile on his face, he continued:
“Based on my personal sense of commercial film, I predict that the final box office of ‘Titanic’ is just the bottom line of $1 billion. That is to say, this is destined to be a great movie with a box office of more than one billion dollars.”
“You’re not kidding?”
The airbrush in his hand trembled slightly, and Townsend-Rothman stared at the opposite side earnestly. At the same time, he put away the smile on his face and said in a hoarse voice, “Wayne, give me the Titanic. The pressure is very high, are you kidding about this?”
“Just wait and see, Townsend.”
The two men chatted constantly around “Titanic” and “X-Men”, which had entered post-production. Wayne was extremely optimistic about the film, which made Townsend-Rothman feel much better. No one knew whether he really believed Wayne’s words or just trying to comfort him.
During this period, Shirley Lansing remained silent like a bystander, but her eyes never left Wayne’s body, and she was still constantly observing his every move, not knowing what she was thinking.
“You do not know.”
Raising his finger and pointing at the center of the banquet hall~www.mtlnovel.com~ the creators of the cast who were surrounded by countless people, Townsend-Rothman’s voice was full of helplessness. “The earliest project proposal submitted by James, the production cost marked on it was $80 million.
However, everyone in the circle knows that this guy has become accustomed to bouncing tickets. Twentieth Century Fox not only prepared 80 million US dollars, but also prepared an additional 20 million US dollars. ”
Speaking of this, he shook his head and exhaled a long puff of smoke. “But after the 100 million dollars of the dog was poured in, the film was still in preparation, and he was still chasing Fox’s **** to ask for money. Working with James is like an adventure, and now no one knows the end of this big ship. What was the result.”
After several films, although James Cameron has won a huge reputation in Hollywood, it has also made some of his habits known to everyone. The fact that the card **** spends money without blinking an eye has spread throughout Hollywood as early as the “True Lies” project.
Twentieth Century Fox has been very cautious, and executives and shareholders have directly prepared all the overspending money this time. However, the development of things far exceeded the imagination of Fox executives.
Just after the project was announced for preparation, James Cameron claimed that there was no suitable shooting location, and he had to build a large studio by himself. What followed was a dream, Kashen directly selected a beach in Mexico and bought it neatly with money.
Then use a large amount of explosives on the beach to blow up a huge deep pit, which is only used to shoot the scene of the sunken ship. There are countless similar things. Why order all the accessories and luxury goods from the original Titanic, and create half a real ship in reality The Titanic is simply the ultimate in spending money.
