925. Witness it with your own eyes
Not to mention how it is in China. "Mad Max: The Furious Road" won the Best Actress and the Palme d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival, which is actually the Best Picture Award, and its influence is quite good.
Although Cannes' halo is definitely not as good as the Academy Awards, its influence also exists objectively.
Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many Hollywood movies going to Cannes to do promotional activities.
In any case, the Palme d'Or has its influence. Winning the Palme d'Or can also make those movie fans look forward to it, especially for fans outside North America, the Palme d'Or is still a very dazzling halo.
As soon as the Cannes Film Festival was concluded, Wang Yifan rushed back to North America with the members of the creative team, and the global release was about to be released.
In fact, although a large part of the reason for "Mad Max: The Furious Road" trip to Cannes was to promote it in Europe, the effect was actually quite good.
In particular, some North American audiences who watched the movie became enthusiastic fans of the movie almost immediately.
Crazy on North American social platforms, crazyly recommending to your friends Amway.
"Mad Max: The Furious Road" was previously reported by the media. With the back, the two Hollywood giants, Miner Group and Matsumoto Universal, are naturally not spared in publicity.
It started to build momentum in North America early on, and the film won two awards for the Palme d'Or and Best Actress at the Cannes Film Festival, which has pushed this momentum to a whole new level.
For this reason, when "Mad Max Furious Road" held its North American premiere at the Hollywood Chinese Theater, there were almost crowds of people outside the Hollywood Chinese Theater!
Previously, North American media and fans who saw the film in advance were eager to use various praises on this film, with remarks similar to "cosmic reputation movies", "great movies", and "unprecedented crazy".
Standing outside the red carpet of the Hollywood Grand Theater, Peter Peck saw Wang Yifan quickly passing through the red carpet, and did not plan to stay anymore. He was preparing to enter the theater to watch the movie. He waited for this movie for too long!
Peter Peck, the vanguard among the film critics who had opposed Wang Yifan, the most powerful adaptation of the Pearl Director's Pearl Sinking Incident, had long been eager to watch this movie that was just a few people who were almost hyped up to heaven. What was it like?
Peter Peck is a relatively radical member of the North American film critics circle. He has always been known for his sharp words. Although he is still very young, at least compared to many veteran film critics, Peter Peck is really young. He is only 38 years old this year!
Peter Peck is an alternative film critic. He rose to the prosperity of the Internet and has many fans on the Internet. His film reviews can usually have an impact on a large group.
Another biggest difference between Peter Peck and other film critics is that this guy is not short of money, so it is difficult to be public relations. He is a rich man himself and has a net worth of over 100 million yuan.
However, Peter Peck is obsessed with movies.
Perhaps it is precisely because he himself is not short of money and it is difficult to be public relations, so his remarks are often easier to gain trust from others.
For this reason, he became a very influential film critic today when the influence of film critics is declining.
It is naturally not difficult for Peter Peck to get the ticket to the premiere.
After all, he is also famous!
However, Peter Peck was not here to support the film. He looked at the movie with a critical look.
After walking a few steps, he saw the promotional poster directly in front of the Hollywood Grand Theater, because the poster was so eye-catching.
On the movie poster, Dahuang Sand asked in a wild font - Are you crazy enough?
Peter Peck curled his lips disdainfully: "This King Hua is really crazy!"
Peter Peck is a standard North American. He has always been prejudiced against directors outside North America, probably because Hollywood has indeed been the number one movie in the world over the years!
Few other foreign film directors can get any good results here.
Therefore, Peter Peck was not so catching a cold about Wang Yifan, a Chinese director known as Asia's No. 1 director and Asia's Light.
This is also the reason why he strongly opposed Wang Yifan's adaptation of the Jenny shipwreck incident.
"I think the king from China is not crazy, but has enough passion and vitality to make such a cool movie." At this time, a man who heard Peter Peck's words couldn't help but retort.
Peter Peck frowned and looked at the person who was talking. Unfortunately, he didn't know him.
But the other party seemed to know him.
"I know you, Peter Peck! I used to like your reviews, but now... maybe I want to take back this view, maybe you are actually no different from other critics!" The man said so.
"Who are you?" Peter Peck asked with a frown.
"My name is Irving! Irving Jonas!" said Irving Jonas.
Peter Peck raised his brows, and he recognized who this person was.
"You're Irving Jonas who vigorously touted "Mad Max Furious Road" on the Internet?" Peter Peck asked.
Owen nodded and said, "No, that's not a flattery, but the truth I've seen. I've seen this movie, three times! Today is the fourth time! So, I'm qualified to tell others about my viewing experience, and you, Mr. Peter, you haven't seen this movie, so, you're not qualified to judge. Maybe after you watch the movie, your thoughts will be changed!"
"I hope so!" Peter Peck was not annoyed, but nodded thoughtfully.
The two looked at each other and smiled. They walked around the crowded front door and walked towards the side door that was open to movie fans.
Peter Peck couldn't help but look at the crazy media and crazy movie fans, and asked: "Now the media is so popular, and I have won the Palme d'Or. In my impression, no Chinese director's movie has such treatment. Isn't this the credit for capital publicity and hype? Don't you think it's over?"
Irving Jonas said as he walked, "I went to Cannes to see this movie, you know!"
"I think the treatment given is not enough. Please, Mr. Peter, don't look at the problem with the old eyes. Wang is a Chinese, but is this a problem? First of all, we should speak with the movie, instead of seeing which country he is from! I think this is the attitude that Peter Peck should have in my impression!" said Owen Jonas.
Peter Peck nodded without comment.
Entering the theater. The two found a suitable seat. After sitting down, Owen Jonas said to Peter Peck, "This is a commercial film that is never simple. In an era when the audience is gradually numbing, this film can make people's blood rush. If you haven't watched it yet..."
He pointed to the big screen, "Don't hesitate, witness it with your own eyes."
