Chapter 179: Pain and Anger

The film opens with a documentary-like nuclear explosion scene, with yellowed paper as the backdrop, revealing a lot of so-called top-secret information.

and other subtitles of the main cast and crew flashed, and a team of scientific expedition personnel wearing protective clothing were suddenly attacked and wiped out.

Then there is the beginning of a typical American horror movie, where the family goes on a trip and chooses to drive through Nevada.

All the dialogue and scenes highlight the profession and character of the male protagonist, Bob, the physical education teacher at a certain school who teaches baseball and other sports, and the young father.

He has a deep love for his family, and for the sake of his children and wife, he endures his conservative, stubborn and aggressive father-in-law again and again.

Every time the two had an argument and his wife came over to act as a peacemaker, Bob would choose to take a step back for his wife's sake.

For the sake of love and family concessions, the audience will at least not be disgusted with this character.

So, after filling up at the gas station, Bob puts himself in the RV to look after the kids, while the father-in-law chooses a path.

The car gets punctured, the father-in-law chooses to turn back to the gas station for help, and Bob goes to explore the unknown path as a young man.

The road is cut off by a huge crater, and the Freak Killer is officially introduced.

Bob is suddenly attacked, attacked by two murderers, and after paying the price of a severed finger, he kills the killers.

When he bandaged his wounds, picked up the baseball bat and was about to return to the RV, his father-in-law was tied to a tree and set on fire, his mother-in-law and wife were killed, his sister-in-law and brother-in-law were injured, and the child was snatched away.

Under the pain and anger, the mode of one person, one stick and one dog was officially opened.

The male protagonist and the deformed murderer abuse each other.

With the help of the dog and the deformed girl, the male protagonist takes out the enemy and saves the child.

In the third row of the audience, watching the scarred male protagonist walk out of the abandoned town with his child in his arms, film critic Kenneth Turan said: "Wes Craven has finally made some progress after all these years. ”

Todd McCarthy nodded: "He incorporated more action elements in the film. ”

Another film critic, Courtney Howard, said: "It's kind of interesting, one man and one dog, struggling to survive, and then fighting their way around. ”

McCarthy asked, "What do you guys think of this film?" ”

"There is no departure from the traditional horror film routine." Turan said simply: "But the actor's acting skills are good, do you pay attention, the sadness and anger of losing a loved one, he played it very well." ”

Courtney continued, "Don't you think he's more of a pervert in the end of his showdown with the murderers?" ”

McCarthy recalls carefully, as if there was something interesting.

But Turan doesn't think so: "Let's think about it after we substitute it, at the beginning of the film, the male protagonist loves his wife and children very much, and when he sees his wife killed and the child robbed, what will he do?" If you have his ability, what will you do? ”

McCasse has a child: "I'm going to be hornier and crazy than him." ”

Courtney nodded: "So, the male protagonist shows the greatness of fatherly love in this way." ”

"Martin Davis is a good actor, much better than the idiots in Craven's two most successful series, Haunted Street and Scream," Turan said. ”

The end credits appeared, and the audience gave a standing ovation, as did several critics.

It's not a bad movie, but it's certainly not a bad movie.

Next to Vaughn is from Cinema Score, a professional market evaluation agency specializing in audience word-of-mouth, and has a keen insight into the film market.

Vaughn thinks this film is a rare masterpiece of Craven in recent years, the actor's performance is very exciting, and the climax scene of the last person, one dog and one stick is amazing.

Publicity and marketing have done so many articles, and the scandal about Martin and Anne is boiling, judging from his years of experience in the first-line market, the response of this sub-market is not bad.

Vaughn took out his phone and sent a group text message, and his men were ready.

Amid applause, Ajia and Martin took the stage with the main cast and crew for a curtain call.

In the audience, there was a sudden chaotic scream: "Martin, I love you!" ”

At first, there were only two or three people shouting, and then more people called Martin's name.

Martin's character in this film is really outstanding, especially his love for his wife and children.

How deep the love is, how ruthless it will be in the face of a murderer.

No audience was disgusted by Martin's almost perverted killing, but there was a kind of hearty pleasure.

The charm of the character then flourished and spread to the actors.

The fans were very excited for a while, and Jessica and Emily in the middle of it glanced at each other, and with the excellent movie and characters as the foundation, their task was very easy to complete.

The so-called potential is all created.

Martin's coffee position and appeal are not enough at present, and building momentum has become a necessary option.

In the face of the enthusiasm of the fans, Martin had to stand up, beckon, bow, and curtain call.

Once a person's enthusiasm is raised, it is difficult to fade immediately.

Martin could only take the curtain again and again.

The other actors in the crew looked at Martin with envy, but there was no way.

Absolute actor, with capital into the group, concurrently serving as the production manager, one of the three most powerful in the crew, and also deeply involved in publicity and marketing.

It's more than one level off.

At the media seat, a reporter exclaimed: "Looking at the atmosphere in the theater, he looks like a superstar." ”

The reporter next to him said: "This movie is a success, and Martin Davis's upward momentum can't be stopped!" ”

The former agreed: "He and Anne Hathaway were ridiculed by many people for being strong women and weak men, and maybe they will soon become strong men and weak women." ”

Finally, the applause dissipated.

The emotions of the fans gradually calmed down.

After the director of the crew and the actor routinely said a few words of thanks, the premiere ended in an orderly manner.

Back in the lounge, many guests came to congratulate one by one.

Angelina Jolie hugged Martin gently and said with a smile: "Your performance is crazy and full of charm, and I am very much looking forward to playing against you." ”

Martin smiled and responded, "I'm looking forward to working with you too." ”

The atmosphere in the lounge was excellent, and Anne stayed by Martin's side and watched him become one of the central figures.

She has enjoyed this as well, which is a harbinger of success.

Kenneth Turan, the top critic of the Los Angeles Times, came over, greeted Martin and Annie, and said to Martin: "I have been in the industry for more than 30 years and have reviewed thousands of films, and I have found that your acting skills are very explosive, but the role itself limits your play, maybe you should try a more layered role." ”

Martin looked respectful: "Thank you for your pertinent advice, I didn't have a choice before, I could only play what I encountered, and if I had a choice in the future, I would definitely choose more complex roles to hone my acting skills." ”

The other party listened to his words, and Turan was quite pleased: "Martin, you are very talented, don't waste this talent, I hope you can become the new Daniel Day Lewis or Sean Penn in the future." ”

Martin nodded in response, "I'll try." ”

Turan smiled and took his leave to return to the circle of media critics.

Todd McCarthy asked, "How?" It doesn't look as arrogant as young people. ”

"Very humble young man, good at advice, so talented, hopefully not to disappoint like Tom Cruise," Turan said. ”

The group of critics was the first to leave the break room, ready to go back to catch up.

The crew immediately had someone to send them off, and at the same time, each person sent a handbag.

At the same time, the audience dispersed.

Vaughn of Cinema Score gathered a few of his men and got into the van together.

"How was the response from the audience?" he asked. ”

The assistant next to him made preliminary statistics: "Most people have a score of A or A-, and the score of A+ or B is relatively small, and there should be an A on average." ”

Vaughn said: "It's great that horror films can do this. ”

The assistant said: "At today's premiere, too many viewers are supporters of Martin or Craven, and the score will naturally be higher." ”

Vaughn certainly understands this: "According to the past rules, after the full release in North America, the score may be in A or A-, and the box office in the first week is not bad." ”

In the theater, the premiere guests are also leaving one after another.

Mene found Martin: "Boss, I'm ready to go. He glanced at Anne, "You want me to help attract fire?" ”

"No, you don't." In the promotion period of the film, Martin now needs high exposure, and when he sees Mene alone, he asks curiously, "What about Paris?" ”

Mene's face was complicated: "She wants to go with me and is willing to pay, but I don't dare to let her follow." ”

"It doesn't hurt to be cautious," Martin said. ”

"Here in the theater, I can't refuse how much she gives." Mene voiced her concerns: "But what if she gets to a secluded place and she finds someone to do something to me?" I'm not Lao Bu, and I'll be finished then. ”

Martin glanced at the time: "Let's go back early." ”

Seeing Mene out of the theater, Anne said, "Where are you going tonight?" ”

Martin said, "I am a poor man now, and I can only go to the princess's house. ”

Anne only thought Martin was joking, grabbed his arm and walked out: "Then you will be a poor ghost, and I will be responsible for raising you." ”

How does this line sound familiar? Martin thought about it for a moment, wasn't that what he often said to Louise?

The two walked out of the theater gate, and a large number of reporters and paparazzi surrounded them to take pictures.

Multiple security guards stopped them, Martin escorted Anne to the car, opened the door and let the female companion get into the car first, he got in the car and closed the door, and said to Bruce, "Lao Bu, go to the Hilton Hotel." ”

Bruce doesn't drive fast, and there are less than a dozen paparazzi driving motorcycles in the back, and they are prone to danger if they drive too fast.

Under Martin's words and deeds, Bruce will also put himself in the shoes of others.

A group of paparazzi chased them to the Hilton Hotel.

Mercedes stopped in front of the door, Martin and Anne entered the hotel, the two of them were intimate, and they would not come out again tonight.

The other paparazzi left one after another, and Jody waited patiently for a while.

It didn't take long for someone to come over in the parking lot and wave at her.

Jody hurried over to get into the car and found that it was a young girl.

Jessica took the envelope and handed it to Jodi: "Martin is going to propose to Annie, this is a plot. ”

Jody opened the envelope and flipped through it: "I know how to write." ”
