Chapter 642: He's a Man Who Can Do Anything!
"I'm coming, I'm seeing, I'm conquering!"
This is what Julius Caesar wrote to his friend more than 2,000 years ago after conquering the city of Gila in Asia Minor. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 There are only these three words in the whole letter, but no one can deny that it is precisely these three words that set off the omnipotent ability of Julius Caesar and the tallness of this great conqueror.
The grandmaster needs to make a good publicity start for "Forrest Gump", and the promotion of "Forrest Gump" needs to start with a very energetic press conference, so the grandmaster is very forced to take out these three words.
In fact, the grandmaster is not really pretending, the "Forrest Gump" he brought over from his previous life is definitely a classic among the classics.
In the film history of more than 100 years in the previous life, this "Forrest Gump" is definitely a classic that can definitely be ranked in the top ten.
And in the previous life, 1994, that year was recognized as the "best film year" in the history of a hundred years of film. In that year, whether it was Hollywood, the United States, or Hong Kong Island, they all presented wonderful movies to fans all over the world.
That year, there were as many as 36 films that were eligible to compete for the Oscars alone.
Not to mention the big words, among the 36 classic films released in 1994 in the previous life, take out a random movie, if it is placed in previous years, I am afraid that it really has the strength to compete for the Oscar. Even if those commercial films are not favored by the judges of the film school, these films are all box office hits!
"The Shawshank Redemption", "Pulp Fiction", "The Lion King", "Strange Heroes in Disguise", "The Lion King", "True Lies", "This Killer Is Not Too Cold", "Four Weddings and One Funeral", "Journey to the West", "Chongqing Forest", ......
Just look at the names of these films and you'll know how many great films were released that year.
And "Forrest Gump", which was also released in this year, fought its way out of the siege surrounded by so many good films, and won six Oscars including Oscar Best Picture, Oscar Best Director, and Oscar Best Actor, becoming the biggest winner of that Oscar.
This is enough to prove the excellence of "Forrest Gump".
The Oscar is not so easy to get, at least your film must be liked by the old pedants of the film school, and at the same time, you must impress as many as 6,000 judges, so that your film can win the Oscar.
And if you want to really win the little golden man, especially in that era when public relations was not prevalent, it really depends on the quality of the film.
"Forrest Gump" was able to beat so many classic films that year, which doesn't need to explain much.
Of course, it is undeniable that another classic film "The Shawshank Redemption" has no worse artistry than "Forrest Gump", but that film is really not suitable for playing in cinemas.
Many people say that "The Shawshank Redemption" is more classic than "Forrest Gump", which is that turnip greens have their own love, but the grandmaster doesn't think so.
To evaluate the quality of a film, artistry is one aspect, and the box office is also a very important aspect. Since its invention, cinema has quickly transformed from an artistic form of expression into a rather sharp investment weapon. The movie is made for the majority of fans, and the movie is made for the box office.
If a movie is only artistic and has no box office, it is obviously not a good movie, only a person who walks on two legs is a normal and perfect person, and a person with one leg, no matter how beautiful and handsome she (he) is, no matter how literary and artistic she is, he (she) is also a cripple!
Although "The Shawshank Redemption" is artistically incomparable, the dark and oppressive atmosphere of this movie is really not suitable for viewing in movie theaters.
Moviegoers who come to the cinema to watch a movie are all about relaxing, and who can afford to watch a film like this while relaxing in this 142-minute film, 120 of which is spent in a dark and oppressive and depressingly maddening atmosphere?
As a result, the film, which cost $25 million to produce, only earned more than $28 million at the box office in the United States, the world's largest box office. At the box office, this classic film can be regarded as a complete failure.
And what is the box office of "Forrest Gump"? More than 300 million in North America and more than 600 million in the world, such a box office is more than 10 times the cost of production.
The film "Forrest Gump" itself is excellent enough, coupled with the excellent box office, this is really a double harvest of word-of-mouth and box office!
This kind of film is liked by the old pedants of the film school, and the majority of fans like it more, and it is inevitable to beat other classic films.
And the movies of this life, although they are better artistically than the movies of the previous life, there is still a gap compared with classic films like "Forrest Gump". According to the grandmaster's understanding of this world, even if "Forrest Gump" is placed in this world, it is enough to rank in the top ten in the history of a hundred years of film!
It is precisely for this reason that the Grandmaster is very sure that he dares to say such a thing.
The Grandmaster really doesn't believe that just one Bill Sanchez can make a movie that is even more classic than "Forrest Gump"!
At Bill Sanchez's level, he simply can't do that!
Not to mention Bill Sanchez, even if they take the top directors in Hollywood at the moment, if they don't have such an excellent script as "Forrest Gump", then they can't make such a classic film.
You must know that most of the top 20 classic films in the world's century-old film history were shot in the last century, and in the 21st century, no film has been able to squeeze into the top 20.
The excellence of "Forrest Gump" is where the grandmaster's confidence lies.
All the reporters at the scene also had nothing to say when they saw the man sitting firmly on the podium of the press conference.
What can they say? The Grandmaster even said the classic words of Julius Caesar, how can they refute it?
They just want to refute it, and they are also worried about being slapped in the face.
Everyone knows how awesome this young man is in the cross-industry work, if the grandmaster in the three industries of rock, classical symphony, and folk music can still be said to be cross-lined, after all, they are all in the music industry, but advertising, poetry, calligraphy and painting, snooker, golf, F1 racing, Vladivostok-Cape Town car rally these industries, the span is simply too big.
But on the contrary, this man, who often crosses his work, can do the top in the industry in every time he crosses his work!
This is an undeniable fact, and an ironclad fact!
Now, this young man is working across the industry again, who dares to say that he can't do well in the directing industry?
With his past performance, since he has extended his hand to the directorial world, there is still a great possibility for him to conquer this industry!
He's a man who can't be questioned, he's a man who can do anything!
