The comeback 509 has a strong momentum

"Schindler's List" indirectly led to the early offline of "Farewell to the Sentient Days", which was absolutely not expected in advance.

The blowout ability of "Schindler's List" at the box office made the "Farewell to Lovers", which was saddled with malicious hype news, seem very weak no matter how hard it tried, and at this juncture, the bad news came again.

There are rumors in the circle that the producer Zuò Tracy and Jacobs brushed the box office, although this news is only rumored in the circle at present, but this is a fatal blow to "Farewell to Love", once the movie is hung up with this name, regardless of the truth or falsehood of the matter, all the reputation of "Farewell Love" has been ruined, and when the time comes, don't say that the Golden Globe Awards and Oscars have been won, the nomination qualifications may be disappointed, this is the real bamboo basket for nothing.

Under such circumstances, Columbia Pictures can only break the wrist of a strong man, and before the rumors have fully emerged, they directly removed the film from the theater, hoping to control these negative rumors, and then use the huge network in the circle to control these negative news. Now Columbia Pictures can only pray that the Jewish team represented behind Steven Spielberg has accepted the previous apology from Mike Nichols on the show, and if Steven also starts to retaliate, then "Farewell to Love" is really powerless.

Faced with such a situation, Tracy was completely stupid, and she couldn't even react effectively. What is called self-inflicted sin and cannot live, may be the truest portrayal of Tracy now.

But for Schindler's List, the early exit of "Farewell to Lovers" did not have much impact, and its footsteps in the North American market have only just begun.

With the trend of public opinion stabilizing, the reputation and reputation of "Schindler's List" began to slowly penetrate into the wider public, and in the third week of December, the film was officially released in 1,000 theaters in the United States!

"The Gannet Assassination," which premiered in 2,000 theaters this week. peli。 Undoubtedly the most anticipated candidate for the title, this film starring Denzel Washington and Julia Roberts is starring top directors Alan J Pakula (Alan). j。 Pakula), who once directed "To Kill a Mockingbird" (T0. kill。 a。 mockihe。 presideen)", Sophie's choice (Sophie, S. choice)" and other classic masterpieces cannot be ignored.

In fact, "Gannet Assassination" "delivered" $16.9 million at the box office in the first weekend of its release, beating all competitors without any suspense and winning the North American weekend box office in the third week of December.

Schindler's List, which has been steadily released, has not been significantly affected, and this word-of-mouth work, which has become the focus of social attention, easily relied on the single-theater box office of $9,200 to get the weekend box office of $9.2 million, and although it gave up the championship, it still sat in the second place in the fifth week of release, and brought its cumulative box office to the position of $38 million in one fell swoop.

It can be said that "Schindler's List" is like a shining rock star, delivering amazing performances every week.

At present, the only thing that can be compared to "Schindler's list" in the North American market is the "My Fair 'Milk' Dad", who is becoming more and more courageous. Four weeks after its release, this word-of-mouth comedy is still increasing its theaters, contributing $9 million at the box office, standing firmly behind "Schindler's List" and ranking third. The cumulative achievement of 72 million US dollars in four weeks is also steadily moving towards the 100 million yuan mark.

Comparatively speaking, the three new works released last week, "Twist Wisdom 2", "Sister's Crazy 2", and "Gronimer: An American Legend ......" were very disappointing, and even the smallest drop in "Sister's Crazy 2" also reached 31 percent, and "Fight Wisdom 2" fell directly into the dirt with a drop of up to 54 percent, and it is not easy to recover the investment of 40 million US dollars.

The most bleak is the movie "Gronimer an American Legend ......", which fell by 43 percent this week, earning $2.3 million and accumulating only $7.7 million at the box office. Fortunately, the cost is only 35 million, and Columbia Pictures will not lose much even if it loses money.

This has also triggered the whispers of many professionals in the circle, Joseph as Hugo's agent, the four films selected so far have all been successful, but the scripts selected by Joseph for Matt Da 'Mon' and Nicolas Cage are not so convincing.

In the fourth week of December, Universal Pictures once again added 130 venues to "Schindler's List", obviously intending to continue the expansion, but it would not rush in for small profits, which can also be seen that Universal Pictures intends to let "Schindler's List" enter the ranks of long-term blockbusters, relying on the precipitation of social hotspots to continuously attract audiences to cinemas.

Universal's strategy was undoubtedly a success, and "Schindler's List" took another $9.4 million at the box office this weekend, a slight increase from last week. Although it was unable to hit the champion position of the "Gannet Assassination Order", the "Gannet Assassination Order" 'handed over' a 34% decline, and the three-day income over the weekend was 11 million, easily winning the championship, but it still once again beat the "My Fair 'Milk' Dad", which had a reverse growth at the box office, and continued the names of the top three last week intact.

In the fifth week of December, that is, the last week of l993, this week due to the year-end New Year's Eve holiday, all movies are increasing the number of theaters, and the entire North American box office ushered in a collective explosion, "Schindler's List" is naturally no exception, after increasing its own screening theater chain to 1,400, the box office rose by 65 percentage points, and directly broke out of the weekend box office of 15.5 million US dollars, and the cumulative box office came to 75 million US dollars, 100 million US dollars. The threshold of the door doesn't seem too far away.

In the early nineties, when entertainment was far less abundant than in the 21st century, the movie theater was undoubtedly the hottest venue for New Year's Eve, with all 27 films on the North American weekend box office charts showing a green 'color' increase at the box office, with even the worst results seeing a 10 percent increase. oldn)" even exploded a 95 percent increase.

Among them, the 65 percent increase in "Schindler's List" is not an exaggeration, and "My Fair 'Milk' Dad" benefited from the comedy theme, winning the weekend box office of 16 million US dollars with a 75 percent increase in one fell swoop, and easily completed the counterattack, winning the championship from the hands of "Gannet Assassination Order" and "Schindler's List", and the cumulative box office soared directly from 90 million US dollars last week to 122 million US dollars in one fell swoop, becoming the biggest winner of the New Year's Eve film market

In the last week of 1993, the North American movie box office charts ended with "My Fair 'Milk' Dad", "Schindler's List", and "Gannet Assassination Order" ranking in the top three.

Then in the New Year of l994, the trend of skyrocketing box office prices fell back in an instant, but "Schindler's List" still steadily increased its theater line, adding 20 to 50 theaters a week until the end of February, and then gradually decreasing the number of theaters at a rate ranging from 40 to 80 per week.

Universal's distribution strategy was a huge success, and although it was never able to return to the top spot again, it has been steadily hovering in the top five, with the exception of $11 million in the first week of January, and "Schindler's List" remained at a steady number for the following weekend, nine million, eight and a half million, seven million and eight million...... Such a very steady and slow slowdown, and from time to time there will be a little counterattack.

As we entered February, the floating range became more and more stable, which also made "Schindler's List" unsuspensefully complete the "threshold" of 100 million US dollars in the third week of January, bringing its cumulative box office to 100 million and 6 million, and then this trend continued.

Before the Oscars at the end of March, "Schindler's List" had already accumulated $160 million at the box office, and this situation continued, and the film was released until mid-August, extending its own running time to a full 33 weeks, far exceeding the average 22-week cycle.

Under such a long screening, the cumulative box office of "Schindler's List" finally staggered past the 200 million 'threshold', locking its total North American box office at 200 million and 5 million US dollars!

In the early 90s, what did it mean to cross the threshold of 200 million? It means that the box office masterpiece of the wind 'hairy' Linjiao! You know, the North American box office of "Terminator 2" in l991 was only $200.4 million! This is definitely a huge breakthrough for a World War II work with a strict theme and a profound theme! This also made "Schindler's List" a unique box office victory!

"Schindler's List" exploded at the box office of more than $200 million despite the reputation of film critics, which also confirmed the statement that "this is the most successful ...... of Steven's work ever combined with business and art".

It is worth mentioning that this is the third consecutive work of Hugo to cross the threshold of 100 million since "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea", and it has also become the first work in Hugo's career to have a box office of more than 200 million.

There is no doubt that Hugo relied on the success of "Schindler's List" to officially enter the A-list actor that rivals Tom Cruise, which is also a situation that no one could have predicted.

A chick movie "Sleepless in Seattle" that no one is optimistic about brought Hugo $189 million at the box office, and a heavy war film "Schindler's List" that made everyone hesitate brought Hugo another $200.5 million at the box office, not to mention Hugo's 'brilliant' acting skills in these two works. So, there is no doubt that 1993 was the year of Hugo's strong rise.

What's even more commendable is that "Schindler's List" has also shown an unimaginable box office appeal in the international market outside of North America!
