Chapter 1052: Hunting
There is no doubt that "The Hunt" is an extremely good work.
David Fincher is a guarantee of the quality of the film.
However, the box office is unpredictable.
Back then, the word-of-mouth explosion after the release of "Fight Club" made film critics across the United States applaud. To this day, Rotten Tomatoes still has a freshness rating of 91%!
However, David Fincher's excessive pursuit of concept creation and artistic pursuit, ignoring the market and the audience's aesthetic ability, led to the box office fiasco.
The serious consequences even became the fuse for Bill McNick to be kicked out of Twentieth Century Fox that year.
Since then, David Fincher has paid special attention to the producer's point of view and has been very attentive to the internal editing phase before the release of the film.
I just don't want the tragedy of Fight Club to happen again.
Now, the senior management of New Universal directly asked "Hunting" to cancel a series of internal screening activities before the release and put it on file in advance!
This worries David Fincher a lot.
After the advance of "The Hunt" ended, many film review journals and newspapers across the United States reported on this excellent film.
"The New Yorker": "The cold psychological portrayal of group portraits, the story is a little old-fashioned, but the emotional tension runs throughout, the heavy injustice case makes people feel like they are stuck in their throats, and the ending of the movie makes people sigh and sigh." ”
"Complete Movie": "The cramped and oppressive atmosphere, the right narrative, and the ugliness of human nature are revealed. David Fincher used his film lenses to freeze the anger in the world. ”
San Francisco Film Magazine "A film that's cold to the bone. The tepid narrative and calm, rational shots brew an almost hopeless depression and mania. This film is as cold as summer in San Francisco, and it mercilessly cuts a knife to the bone between human nature and social morality in the midst of trembling. ”
"Village Voice": "A rare masterpiece, with a strong David Fincher color." Recommended index: five stars. ”
"Rolling Stone": "Tribute to David Fincher! This movie, like the French Revolution, is like a river of blood in the confusion of the public. There is no doubt that the movie embodies the creators' understanding of the current social environment and the entertainment industry. Either way, this will be a must-see movie of the year. ”
USA Today: "It's a journey of cleansing ...... the soul"
David Fincher is browsing related news on his computer, and he is logged on to the entertainment section of the Yahoo portal.
Here is the first time to summarize the film reviews of "Hunting" by major media.
It's more convenient than traditional magazines and newspapers.
However, the praise did not bring him much joy.
Because the film reviews are too high and low.
This is very similar to "Fight Club" back then.
Word of mouth is not equal to the box office!
In Hollywood, for directors, the box office is a prerequisite for everything!
If it can't generate income for investors, then even a film master like Francis Coppola will have to retire and become an outdated director in Hollywood.
"Hey!"
David Fincher sighed, he was a little irritated.
Even deep incomprehension.
Why did the senior management of New Globe insist on adjusting the schedule of the movie?
He's just a film director.
If you stand low, you are destined to not be able to see too far and see the whole picture.
Yahoo's entertainment section, of course, has a lot of entertainment news.
However, David Fincher lacks interest in the "gossip entertainment" section, and he only focuses on the "movie section". Surprisingly, this time, he also saw a piece of news about the movie "Hunting" in the "Gossip Entertainment" section.
"The premiere that Michael Jackson secretly attended!"
Such a title made David Fincher stunned.
Michael jackson?
He's coming?
Also attended the premiere?
How did I not know?
Clicking on the news, David Fincher was even more shocked and dumbfounded.
The first thing to load is a photo of a dark parking lot!
The smiling face that catches your eye is so familiar, it's Donn Walker!
The man with the mask next to him was Michael Jackson?
Looking at the detailed report, some of Donne's views in the interview are also reported below......
"Boom!"
At this time, David Fincher's brain seemed to have been struck by a bolt of lightning.
He got it!
"The Hunt" + Michael Jackson!
Sure enough, it's Don's means!
The marketing of a different way is shocking!
There is no doubt that no matter what the outcome of Michael Jackson's case is, if the movie "Hunting" can be linked to the current Michael Jackson, it will definitely be a box office hit!
His fanatical fans and supporters alone will pay for it.
Dawn!
Sure enough, it's still Donne!
Terrible!
……
The second leg between Liverpool and Juventus coincided with the premiere of "The Hunt".
With a 3-1 win over his opponent in the first leg, Donn was full of confidence in his team.
There is no need to supervise the away game again.
However, this game is a big rock hanging in my heart after all.
The next morning, Donn wakes up from the gentle home of Leighton Meester and Amber Heard.
This kind of left and right hug, warm nephrite is really comfortable to come home.
It was the sixth night in a row that he had slept here.
That's not going to work.
The two girls, Leighton Mester and Amber Heard, are good, but they can't be used all the time. Excessive requests in a short period of time will lose a lot of appeal.
The top priority is to "recruit" more young and beautiful girls.
Changing it often can keep it fresh and stimulate their performance of competing for favor and please.
I don't know what happened to Jasmine Bloom's job.
After Don got up, he first searched for the mail.
Then I received a piece of good news, yesterday, Liverpool played 0-0 with Juventus at the Alp Stadium.
In this way, Liverpool successfully advanced to the semi-finals of this Champions League with an aggregate score of 3:1!
In the next semi-finals, Liverpool's opponent will be the Premier League powerhouse - the Blues Chelsea!
The battle between red and blue will be staged in the Champions League!
Chelsea are currently top of the Premier League table, with Liverpool in second place.
This is a battle within the Premier League, which will be more interesting than the other group of semi-final matchups - AC Milan vs PSV Eindhoven.
In the mailbox, there are also some follow-up tracks about the movie "Hunting".
According to reliable sources, the film has already attracted the attention of Michael Jackson fans, as long as the incident breaks out. When the time comes, the movie-watching tide of "Hunting" will blow out.
That's good news.
However, the most surprising thing for Don was a strange email.
Attached is a sexy photo of a girl in lingerie with a seductive deep groove on her chest.
It's Amanda Seyfried!
This is the photo that Don took of her when she was away on vacation.
Appendix below is a line of words: "Sir, I am Amanda. I regret it, I want to go back to be with you, and Amber. Are you still willing to ask for me?"
Don touched his chin and remembered the beauty of her plump and explosive body.
I thought the vacation was a failed hunting operation, and only one of the two girls, Amber Heard, was managed.
Unexpectedly, the prey that ran away came back by itself.
Donn quickly replied to the email: "Contact Jasmine." ”
