842 Premiere of "Brokeback Mountain".
As time passes, people's resistance to "Brokeback Mountain" is getting stronger and stronger as the release time approaches, and the momentum is getting bigger and bigger. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
And when the time finally came on December 9, not only the people holding signs gathered at MGM, but also the doors of the three theaters where the theaters were released were also full of protesters.
On MGM's side, these people have become regulars, and the people at the door of the three movie theaters slowly gathered this morning. If Liu Anran hadn't personally called the three movie theaters, I'm afraid they would have taken down the film temporarily.
The people at MGM were all extremely nervous today, even Ang Lee, who rushed here. The only one who is relaxed is Liu Anran, who should eat and drink, and also discussed with Ang Lee some cautions in editing films.
Normal films, like "The Chronicles of Narnia", were released in the early morning of the 9th, rushing to the box office. However, although the film "Brokeback Mountain" was also released on the 9th, it was scheduled for 9 o'clock in the evening.
But even so, when Liu Anran and the others arrived at one of them, there was still a sea of people outside. And after seeing Liu Anran and them coming, the originally quiet crowd made a deafening noise.
"How is it, are you afraid?" Liu Anran turned to everyone and asked.
"You're not afraid, what am I afraid of?" Ang Lee said with a smile.
"Haha, that's good, let's have a good fight with them today." Liu Anran said with a smile.
"Andy, can you go quickly? We're working under a lot of pressure right now. William came to Liu Anran's side and said with a wry smile.
"Don't worry, we're not terrorists, how about it, let's go in and see if we'll take a look? But there are no seats, so I can only sneak you in. Liu Anran continued to say with a smile, his expression was very relaxed.
"Well, it's been so hard today, I need to be lazy too." William nodded without hesitation.
This can be regarded as a sign of support for Liu Anran. Over the years, Liu Anran has been very good to his side, and he has donated nearly 30 police cars to various police stations here through him. This is not a small number, and even many of the police officers who came here today are volunteering to work overtime.
Walking into the screening room, the lights were bright, and the seats in the theater were full. Everyone was a little surprised, because Liu Anran had not participated in the premiere for many years, and he had not released any news to attend the premiere beforehand.
The group came to the screen and stood up, and the staff here also brought Liu Anran a microphone.
"There's still twenty minutes to go before the screening, so we're going to have a short premiere." Liu Anran said with a chuckle.
"On the way here, I saw a lot of familiar faces, including a lot of film critics and my friends. I want to say sorry to everyone, because many people have traveled a long way to see this film. ”
"I don't need to introduce the situation of this film, I can only describe it as tragic. There are three theaters showing this film on five screens today, and I'm going to check it out when I go back and see if I can set a small record. ”
"Andy, we will always support you, you are our Andy forever." As soon as Liu Anran finished speaking, a fan sitting below stood up and shouted loudly.
"I remember you, your name is Derek? Luke, from Texas. I can't remember exactly which county it was, but I just remember that you were super lucky and won three of our autographed T-shirts. Liu Anran waved his hand at him and said.
"So, after watching the movie today, you are forbidden to post movie reviews on the forum. Even you too, all my fan groups, and the fans of these people standing on stage, don't post movie reviews. I'm afraid that because of your affection for us, you can't give the most objective evaluation. ”
"You may not know that before the full release of this film, I have already issued an order to the company that all employees of Dream Media companies are not allowed to go to the cinema to watch this film."
"There are also many film critics here, I believe in your professionalism, what we want to see is your most objective and truthful evaluation of this film."
"We're just making films, and our goal is just to give you the best work. There may be controversy about many themes, but what is not controversial in the world we live in? ”
Liu Anran didn't say anything more, handed the microphone to the staff, and walked down with everyone. They came to this theater by lottery, and there was no place for them at all, so whoever it was, there could only be standing tickets.
As the film began to be screened, the voices of everyone talking in the theater disappeared in an instant, and everyone's eyes were focused on the screen. The controversy of this film is too great, but the production company and director of this film are impossible to ignore.
At the beginning, people's expressions were still very flat, and at the beginning of the ordinary, people also knew that the forbidden love of this film would happen to these two young people.
In particular, Trist's series of episodes after meeting Ennis are also destined to be a position for the two in the future. Many people nodded secretly, just an opening, without a single dialogue, but the personalities of the two have been completely portrayed.
This is Ang Lee's skill, the skill of an Oscar-level director. And the tension between the two characters just now was completely eliminated in the chat in the tavern.
Now people are attracted by the plot that will be rolled out next, although they don't see it, and even seem to be able to foresee the ending of the film, but everyone still wants to see what happened between these two people.
The plot unfolds slowly, and people's expressions keep changing with the plot and the music in the film. Liu Anran also paid attention to everyone's expressions at all times, and halfway through the film, he smiled. didn't say hello to everyone, just slipped out of the screening room so gently.
He knew that the film was successful, and Ang Lee once again firmly captured the hearts of the audience.
"I'm relieved, I thought you weren't worried at all." He had just come outside to catch his breath when Edward's voice came from behind him.
"I'm not here for you, so that you don't have to be afraid." Liu Anran said with a smile.
"You say that if we are captured now, will the headlines of tomorrow be: 'Brokeback Mountain can't even watch Andy anymore'?" Edward blinked.
Liu Anran shook his head helplessly, it seemed that Edward had relieved the pressure.
