Legendary Hollywood Director

France is the birthplace of cinema.

In the early days, filmmakers from all over Europe hoped to come to France to study film, but it was a pity that they could not keep up with the times and the audience market, and gradually declined.

But it is undeniable that there is still a certain background here.

The more intuitive impact is that French films always have a literary flavor, and even the audience's appreciation of the film is not always a matter of simple cost.

If there is a big scene, if there is any cool point, I don't care very much.

Just look at past French box office hits.

In addition to the more appealing Hollywood blockbusters, there is no shortage of less formal films.

In other words, well-made literary and artistic films have a great market in France, such as "Amelie", "Two Little No Guess", and "Spring in the Cattle Class", which basically can't sell at the box office in other places, but in France they are It often occupied the top spot at the box office and once crushed the Hollywood movies of the same period.

The same is true for "Untouchable".

Without too much and in-depth interpretation, the audience voted with their feet to send this high-quality film to the top of the list.

Ninety-nine percent of those who have seen it think it is good, which affects more people who have not watched it.

Moreover, the evaluation of the audience in the viewing survey is also very interesting-

There are those who praise the soundtrack, saying that it is full of beauty in the scene with the camera;

There are those who praise the plot, saying that it is very life-like and looks relaxed;

It is also said that the year-old friendship between Dres and Philip in the movie is very longing for.

......

In short, the movie is interesting, can meet the needs of watching movies, and relieve mental stress. Why not watch such a movie, and you should watch it more times...

Europa Films Building.

Luc Besson got up early in the morning and was in a good mood.

Last night, market data about the first day of the release of "Untouchable" also came out.

Luc Besson enjoys a long list of theater online attendance statistics and audience word-of-mouth.

Of course, it would have been better if the film was produced independently by its own studio...

in the office.

Luc Besson held the report in his hand, and sat opposite him a middle-aged white man-his partner Pierre.

Pierre is the second biggest contributor to Europa Films getting to where it is today.

He has contributed a lot to the successful establishment of Europa Pictures and the production of the company's first independent film.

And, without him, Luc Besson wouldn't even think about going it alone.

It can be said that at first Luc Besson only dreamed of being a director and a director recognized by the audience. After slowly breaking out in the circle, he only wanted to make better movies and make better movies.

It was not until Pierre found him and brought in a few more sponsors that Europa Pictures was established.

Under this situation, the company has gradually become a climate...

Vision is sometimes useless, and sometimes it can bring earth-shaking changes.

When Luc Besson stopped looking at the film market as a director, his shooting philosophy was slowly changing.

Who knows, he was also praised as a new wave and cutting-edge director in the past.

But now, he is often criticized by the seniors in the circle as being too worldly, and he wants to get into the eyes of money...

But he is still a director at heart.

Therefore, his studio treats directors, especially newcomers, with great courtesy, and even takes the initiative to help them—this guy often writes scripts for other directors in order to cultivate more talents.

But today, what he wants to discuss with his old friend Pierre is the release of "Untouchable".

Last night, the three studios got accurate market information - "Untouchable" earned 39.8 million euros on the first day plus advance screening, making it the French film with the best premiere this year.

"His appeal is still strong, and the film can be made to be accepted by most audiences."

Luc Besson looked at Pierre and sighed.

Of course, the sourness in the words was automatically filtered by Pierre.

After all, such an achievement is too heartwarming for a director. Who wouldn't want to be able to make such a good movie by themselves? Not to mention that the word of mouth is good, and the audience's evaluation is not too low.

"What did Gao Meng and EMI say?" Pierre changed the subject.

"Of course it's an additional screening. There must be room for such a box office. Instead of putting those old films, it's better to free it up for "Untouchable"."

The results from the first day were released.

The top executives of the three studios can understand the current market situation just by looking at the data - and they are thriving again.

"Looks to be higher than No Country for Old Men at the box office."

"Yeah, who would have thought that a daily drama film about two men helping each other and influencing each other would have such a market. For the audience, I'm getting more and more understanding. I thought it might be better than "No Country for Old Men" It’s a little bit worse, but it’s also profitable, I didn’t expect such a huge potential.”

Pierre listened, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and he didn't know what to think.

......

Lyman also learned about the film's first-day box office from many sources.

My heart agitated a little, but quickly calmed down.

He is no longer a director who can't sleep because of a movie's big sales.

Moreover, after the release of "Untouchable", it can only be said that it has reached the expected standard.

More than anyone else, the direction of the movie is still within Lyman's understanding.

After all, the original time and space broke the movie attendance record set by "Titanic" in France, and easily became the annual box office champion of that year.

In other words, the film transcends race, the friendship and understanding of the rich and the poor, the redemption of the two souls, and the strong family affection can easily arouse a strong resonance with the French audience.

After the movie was released, many newspapers also commented like this——

"This movie will make you laugh out loud, but also make you cry, and not a second is wasted." - "Sunday Daily"

"This is a very popular film, and of course the cast led by director Ryman has contributed a lot to the success of the film." - "The Cross"

"Untouchable" is a jubilant film with deep meaning. It has been a long time since I saw such a high-quality French local drama film." - "Le Figaro"

......

The mainstream media's evaluations are quite positive, and the positive publicity of the film critics, it seems that it is not difficult to make an already excellent film harvest far more than other films at the box office.

In the final analysis, it is the audience who recognize the quality of "Untouchable".

The next day, 26.65 million euros were recorded, which once again proved that the film's screening was still strong.

It's just that the box office of "Untouchable" should be released first, and now Lehmann is going to the suburbs of Paris to buy an animation studio.

Yesterday, McLeodandrei called to say this.

Moreover, the owner of the studio knew that Firefly was going to buy it, so he didn't ask for the money first, but wanted to meet Lehman.

Because the guy on the phone is acting like a Lyman fan, even though he's an animation guy...

But this is not a conflict, is it? Everyone has someone they like or admire.

To that end, Lehmann had to settle the matter before officially leaving France.

After arriving, Lehmann had to feel the importance of finding a manager who was very familiar with the animation industry.

In such a remote place, if I hadn't dealt with it before, who would believe that this small studio with an area of ​​less than 100 square meters and only 6 people, the owner is both an investor and an artist, has taken over the list of outsourcing many Hollywood animation projects, and The work has always been good.

When Lehmann entered, he looked left and right and found that it was indeed a small workshop. It was estimated that he did not have the economic strength to produce animation independently, and because he stayed in Paris, he usually received MVs or advertising animations to maintain the business.

This is what the owner of the studio said by himself~www.readwn.com~ People learn animation production. After graduation, he asked his family for a sum of money to open this studio. Several years have passed, and the scale has not been large. .

Because outsourced work is itself troublesome and not profitable...

Lyman took a few movie posters or postcards to help sign them.

He still rarely encounters fans who ask him to sign autographs, and he is still a group of working otaku. His daily hobbies are games and movies.

However, dealing with these people is also much easier.

When Lyman was sure they would help with the housing problem when they moved to Burbank, they all agreed...

As for the salary, there is no even bargaining. It is estimated that I believe that Lehman will not cheat them. This is...

It seems that fame has helped a lot. Lehman felt inwardly.
