242 Premiere of "Brokeback Mountain."
♂!
The FBI incident was quickly resolved, and Theorod's fame was not only not damaged, but it attracted a large number of fans, which made Theorod's die-hard fans very happy and disappointed those Theorod fans. The chapter update is the fastest, and they thought that they could take this opportunity to pull Theorod off the altar, but unfortunately this time it was turned into a good fortune by Theorod again.
"Brokeback Mountain" producer Focus Pictures and distributor Universal Pictures also breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time admired Theolod a little bit for his sense of justice, which allowed him to slander his reputation and attract firepower to the FBI and Natle to completely end the gangster. No one in Hollywood wants to have anything to do with the mafia, because once you get involved, you can never get out, and Theolod actually has the courage to do such a thing, although he is still young, but he hasn't thought about the consequences of being targeted by the mafia once the operation fails?
Thankfully, it worked, and he had a good friend of the casino boss, and no one would dare to think of Nattell as a thigh-hugging ex-convict who was helped by Theorod, at least for now.
Of course, most of this is a wonderful misunderstanding, and Theolod does not have the passionate sense of justice of these young people, and his real intention in doing so is to help Natl through this difficult time. But now that things have been successful and have been groomed by people's brains, Theorod doesn't mind adding another flower to his good name.
Focus Pictures and Universal Pictures also took advantage of Theorod's rising fame to vigorously promote "Brokeback Mountain". In fact, at the beginning, they were going to take a low-key publicity route, and set their sights on the European market, the mecca of queer movies, even if there was such a pillar as Theorod in North America, they didn't think that publicity would have a good reaction, especially when Theorod broke the scandal, Universal almost focused all its attention on Europe.
As a result, Theolod killed a horse pistol, and his fame did not fall but rose, at this time they couldn't sit still, and after trying to increase publicity efforts and did not find any bad resistance, they gradually expanded the propaganda campaign, and various interview activities were overwhelming, and Theorod has also maintained his own street photography exposure frequency, building momentum for "Brokeback Mountain".
"Brokeback Mountain" is finally scheduled for November 15, and there is no excitement during the Christmas holiday. After all, homosexuality is taboo in the eyes of some religious fanatics, and it is best for them to avoid this birthday holiday so as not to irritate certain believers and homosexual boycotts.
As the release time approached, Shams and Universal Pictures fought for the number of premiere theaters across the United States, and many conservatives and religious fanatics began to protest the release of "Brokeback Mountain." In normal times, neither Universal nor the protesters would go to such great lengths, but when one of the protagonists of the movie is a two-time Oscar-winning actor, Theorod, the most popular actor in Hollywood and even the world, then everything is different.
The distributors wanted theaters to join the premiere for the sake of Theorod, a golden sign that never falls, and arrange more screenings, while protesters feared that many people would rush to the cinema to increase the box office of a gay film because of Theorod's appearance and acting skills. In the previous "Genius Repley" period, they were careless and failed to resist completely, but now they will definitely not do it again, and they will no longer underestimate Theolod's influence and ability to absorb money.
Under the double attack of many protests and Theorod's golden sign, the most conservative Utah theaters seem to be a little wavering, on the one hand, they want to make a lot of money, and movies with Theorod have always made a lot of money. On the other hand, they don't want to offend the protesters in their own state, fearing that if they get angry and crash the movie theater, it's all over.
So they have been on the sidelines, ready to see how the box office of "Brokeback Mountain" will perform in the first week of release, and then make plans. Universal couldn't convince the Utah theaters that were ready to "protect themselves", so they had to give up and set their sights on other states. Compared to Utah, the attitude of theaters in several other states seems to be ambiguous and intimate, and it seems that with a little more effort, they can be won over.
However, if the box office performance in the first week is not good, they will quit immediately, and many theaters have only signed a two-week contract with Universal, waiting to remove "Brokeback Mountain" from the big screen as soon as the momentum is not right.
On the other hand, since Theolod starred in a gay film again, there have been a lot of all kinds of men around him, especially when the first trailer of Brokeback Mountain was released. The editing in the trailer is very subtle, there is no overly explicit kissing and rolling sheets, only two people who have been with each other from the past to the time is not a tragedy, but no matter how you look at it, Theolod's Jack is a charming existence than Ennis.
Especially when he and Ennis are ambiguous, not to mention Theorod's die-hard female fan, even some gay men have a heart-pounding feeling. In addition, Theolod does not already have a girlfriend like Hiss, and he is still in a "single" state, which is obviously more attractive to many gays.
So there is such a peculiar phenomenon. Every time I go for a morning jog in the park, Theorod will always jump out of nowhere wearing a tight vest and shorts to show an enviable figure, they will occasionally talk to Theorod, it's nothing, he used to run into fans who came to talk to him when he used to go for a morning run, the problem is that in addition to accosting, they sometimes say some very obvious suggestive topics, even if Theorod ignores them, they will silently follow him silently, the kind of gaze that looks from top to bottom makes Theorod feel like a man's back。
Theolod thought about it and pulled Natel to run together, many men who showed off their bodies and faces in front of him were indeed scared away by Natel's fierce and vicious appearance, and many of them were not scared away, but got closer and closer, and seemed to be interested in Natel.
That was all there was to it, but what about the group of ladies who were following them both with excited faces on their faces, especially when Nattel slapped away the men who were reaching out to Theorod to shake hands, did he hear their whispered screams?
Theolod knew that this was the consequence of "Brokeback Mountain", and he did think that Rashis would come over for a morning jog to help him attract some of the firepower, but when the two of them appeared together, not only did the number of men with "bad intentions" increase, but even the number of sneaky women who followed him and screamed from time to time also increased.
Theolod was speechless and could only choose to go for a morning jog on the treadmill in his gym.
Then, as the publicity grew, Theolod was able to meet elusive male fans wherever he went, and once he even received a man's business card and phone number at a bar, as in the past, he had received mainly female phone numbers.
During a certain movie promotion, Theolod couldn't help but complain to Heath, who was also pestered by a few male fans, instead of sympathizing with his plight, he gloated and laughed: "Hahaha, Theo, you just accept your fate, who told you that you are still single, and Jack is always more attractive than Ennis?"
"Why, are you jealous? Your Michelle doesn't care about the male butterfly next to you?" teased Theolod.
"yes, I'm just jealous, man, there's always a man around you, and I'm just you. Heath joked, "But Michelle doesn't mind, she's even quite happy to see those male fans, you know, they are really in good shape, and they always make Michelle appreciate them for a long time." ”
This guy with a love brain...... Theorod was helplessly shown affection by Heath, if he could, he would have wanted to bring Nattel Show back, but unfortunately it didn't, and Theorod had already passed the age of this kind of once he fell in love, he couldn't wait to show the world every day, he was still quite satisfied with the old husband and young wife who occasionally lived in the world of two people and then rolled the sheets...... Or the relationship between a young husband and an old wife.
Days passed, and soon came the day of the world premiere of "Brokeback Mountain", and Universal thought about it for a long time, and finally chose not to choose the premiere location in Europe, but chose Los Angeles in the United States, probably preparing to fight with those who resisted - you don't want "Brokeback Mountain" to be released? Very good, then they want it to be released right under your noses.
On the day of the premiere, there were still many protesters with banners, but all of them were driven to the outermost part by the security guards, and there was no impact on the media fans and stars on the red carpet.
On the red carpet, Heath and Michelle, the on-screen partners of the couple in the play, appeared together, and Theolod's female companion was his wife Anne Hathaway in the play. The four of them dressed up on the red carpet this time were also quite interesting, Heath and Michelle were both dressed in black low-key and stable dresses, while Theorod and Anne were dressed in elegant white dresses.
Anne was already sweet and lovely, and at this moment, a long white dress made her even more pure and beautiful. Theolod is one of the few male stars in the fashion industry who can wear a white dress with luxury and charm, and he still maintains his usual eye-catching fashion taste on the red carpet, and now this white dress is more casual than before, and even the light blue shirt inside is only buttoned to the chest.
On his head, he also wore a white cowboy hat, and this kind of bastard wore on him without being half-twisted and incongruous.
Many carefully observed media and fans also found that the off-white cowboy hat was exactly the same as the one worn by Ennis in the trailer! This small detail actually made them as excited as if they had found a small easter egg, but it was a pity that Heath was not wearing the black hat of Jack.
"You guy, you're very scheming, you told me you would wear a white dress, but you didn't tell me you would wear a cowboy hat. Heath saw this, and patted Theorod's chest a little angrily, "Also, when did you steal this hat from the costume prop master?
"Hey, how can this be called stealing, I asked her to keep it as a souvenir, and Miss Dawes gave me your hat directly. Maybe I should complain about your 'unkindness', abandon me after filming, and don't even want to leave a souvenir. Theorod winked innocently, then smiled.
"You must still be holding a grudge against the morning run, but what can I do, those gentlemen are just more interested in you, and it's no wonder that I didn't help. Hiss immediately pretended to apologize sincerely, only to get Theorod a roll of his eyes.
Michelle looked at her boyfriend, then at Anne who was watching the play on the side, stepped forward and took Anne's arm affectionately and said, "Anne, let's go, I found that the two of them match today's dress, and my dress is obviously more compatible with you." ”
With that, Michelle pulled Anne and walked away, provoking Heath to complain again: "You see, it's all because of you, Michelle has abandoned me." ”
"Your Michelle pulled my Anne away, and I didn't complain, so you can save me some snacks. Theolod pretended to be old-fashioned, and treated Hiss with the same posture as he treated his female companion, and bent his arms, "Let's go, Mr. Ledger, if we don't go, we'll be the first couple in history to eat at the premiere of our own movie." 166 Reading Network
