Chapter 442: A big hit at the box office on the first weekend
The Twin Theater in New York is smaller than the one in Los Angeles, and can only accommodate 500 spectators without a screening room. This is because it was the first twin-style cinema built in 1971, with two identical screening rooms.
The designer is Drew Eberson, a famous designer who designed the University of Florida. He is most famous for the dozens of cinemas in New York that have different shapes but are all very artistic.
This is because he used to work as an assistant director in Hollywood when he was young. He still has feelings for movies in his heart.
The Twin Theaters in New York are located at the corner of 64th Street and Second Avenue. It looks like an old theater and has a neoclassical portico.
The photographer was desperately taking pictures at the entrance to the porch. The continuous flashes illuminated the entrance as if it were daytime, and it didn't even get dark for a moment.
"Patrick, look here, look here."
Patrick Schwytz attended the New York premiere of "Dirty Dancing" with his wife, Lisa Niemi.
Ronald and Helen Slater hurried up to greet them, and the four of them posed for Daydream Pictures' own photographer to take photos.
"Helen, it's nice to see you again." Lisa Niemi once visited the crew during the filming of "Dirty Dancing" and cut off the heroine Jennifer Gray's delusions. Helen also happened to visit the crew, and the two were happy
of hugs.
"Are you okay?" Ronald stood nearby and chatted with Schwyz. He looked at their two female companions, who were dressed in colorful and eye-catching clothes.
Lisa Niemi is wearing a black hollow lace dress. Except for a necklace decorated with turquoise and gold amber, she does not have any other jewelry. She is also a dancer and has outstanding temperament. She has fine golden curly hair.
It flows naturally on the shoulders and makes you smile very sweetly.
Helen, on the other hand, went against Ronald's expectations and adopted a neutral and tough style. Her hair was combed upward and pulled into a bun loosely. Two exaggerated star-shaped pendant earrings made her face look slightly childish.
The decoration has a bit of boyish temperament.
On the upper body, she wore a masculine gold and silver pattern and a decorated vest. On the outside, she wore a gray men's windbreaker with high shoulder pads and an exaggerated neckline. Below were dark black trousers, which made Helen look androgynous for a moment.
debate.
"Ah...fortunately you reminded me." Patrick Schwytz made a strange face at Ronald. "Those film critics were so enthusiastic that they lined up to dance with me at the afternoon party."
"Ahem..." Ronald almost couldn't hold back his laughter. Schwytz's dancing in the movie was so sexy and powerful that those female film critics, when they spoke well of their movies, booked them for the premiere.
When the time comes, you must dance with the leading actor Schwytz and enjoy the "benefits" that only babies can enjoy.
"Lisa comes with you, so you can save yourself a lot of troubles." Ronald patted Schwytz's arm, reached out and took Helen's arm, and let the Schwytz couple in.
"Patrick, say something, say something..."
Seeing that the male protagonist was about to leave, the photographer below and the female TV host who came to visit broke up and shouted at Schwytz.
"Tell me something, what do you mean?" Schwytz was confused and seemed to have a big question mark in his mind.
"Say that - 'No one can put Baby in the corner.'"
"Uh..." Schwytz suddenly had two wrinkles on his forehead. When Ronald heard this request, he also found it funny.
At the end of the movie, Johnny came back from the field and danced a dance with Baby that he had promised her. He walked to the table where the Hausman family was sitting, and Baby sat in the corner seat.
"Nobody Put Baby in the Corner." As soon as he said this, the baby's eyes lit up visibly, and he stood up happily and accepted the invitation to dance.
"Say it, say it..."
This line has been widely publicized in film reviews by female film critics such as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Journal, and Los Angeles Times. The audience already knew that there was such a touching line before even watching the movie.
Ronald was obviously a little embarrassed when he saw Schwytz. This act of recreating a movie scene on the spot was too shameful for an actor with self-discipline.
"e on", Ronald saw the female audience below were all making noises, as if they wouldn't let you go if you didn't say anything. He had no choice but to go over and hold Schwytz's shoulders and whisper in his ear, "This is
It's part of your job, Patrick. If you don't say anything today, it seems they won't let you go."
"Okay, okay", Schwyz felt that he had to say it again. He took two steps and stood in front of the audience and the TV host. Then his face became serious, and he brewed his feelings for a while, including an affectionate expression to the camera.
said:
"Nobody Put Baby in the Corner. (Nobody Put Baby in the Corner.)"
"Yeah...he said it, he said it..." the audience shouted happily, and the two middle-aged female audience members in the front row covered their faces with their palms and were about to cry.
"Dear viewers, we are now at the entrance of the Twin Theater. Today is the premiere of the movie 'Dirty Dancing'. Just now the actor Patrick Schwytz repeated his classic lines in the movie to all the audience gathered at the entrance.
,Should not be missed."
"Hahaha..." Helen saw this scene and burst out laughing. "Did the screenwriter Eleanor deliberately write this sentence just like Patrick? It's really cool for him..."
"Not only that, Eleanor also danced the mamba with Patrick for a long time while talking."
Today, Schwytz is wearing a hair-style stand-up collared shirt and a dark gray jacket. His polite look is not similar to the character in the movie whose male hormones are about to overflow the screen.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! But those viewers are obviously die-hard fans. They have watched the "Dirty Dancing" performances in advance on Friday and Saturday, and now they come to the premiere, and they are completely
In order to interact with Schwytz, the girl of my dreams.
"It's crazy, it's crazy..." This was the first time Ronald saw a female audience being so enthusiastic about the male protagonist of his movie.
Unlike female fans like Tom Cruise, Patrick Schwytz's female fans are older, and many of them are around 30 years old. These fans who are already mothers are even more astounding.
"Hello, Cynthia. This must be Richard."
The second pair of actors to come is Cynthia Rhodes, who plays Penny. Today she is wearing a black velvet dress with silver plant patterns on her shoulders. Her light blond hair is particularly energetic.
Behind is a man who is much younger than Cynthia. He is wearing a leather suit and is very coquettish. The middle part of his hair is combed high, the foreheads on both sides are shaved short, and he still has long hair that is shawl at the back.
It was Richard Marks, one of the singers who pursued Cynthia Rhodes.
"Hello, Ronald", Richard Marks came up and hugged Ronald.
"Richard is now helping Barbra Streisand write songs." Cynthia looked at Richard with admiration and admiration in her eyes. It seemed that after making up her mind, Cynthia's relationship with him was progressing well.
"That's really amazing." Ronald took photos with them and then walked them in personally.
"Cynthia seems very happy to be with him." Helen watched the two of them walk in with their fingers intertwined, and came over to gossip with Ronald.
"Yeah, being able to write songs for Barbra Streisand shows that he is very capable in the industry." Ronald could only agree from this perspective.
He also took Helen Slater's hand. Her heroic demeanor today was completely different from her gentle demeanor before.
Several main characters have already arrived, but only the heroine has not yet arrived.
"Is Jennifer coming today? Will she bring a male companion?" Helen still remembers that during the filming, she heard that the heroine Jennifer Gray was obsessed with Patrick Schwytz, and was eventually visited by Schwytz's wife Lisa.
I was so angry that I almost stopped talking to the male protagonist.
So, seeing that the other two leading actors were in a couple today, Helen was very gossipy and wanted to see who Jennifer Gray would bring.
"Don't look, her boyfriend Brodick is still in the hospital, and it won't be easy to recover from two broken legs." Ronald smiled.
Jennifer's neck has been recovering for several days, and today she can finally take off the protective cover, put on beautiful clothes, and attend the New York premiere of the most popular movie she has ever starred in.
Her father, Joel Gray, personally called Ronald. Worried about his daughter's health, he came with his divorced ex-wife to attend the grand appearance of his daughter Jennifer.
"Ronald, thank you very much."
Joel Gray pulled his daughter over and hugged Ronald as soon as he came up. It was really not easy for his daughter to escape the accident this time.
"Look at you, I really regret not forcing you to play the role of Baby's father."
Joel Gray is a veteran movie star who has won the Tony Award. He plays the father in the play, and there is actually no problem with his acting skills. Ronald said this deliberately to make the family of three happy.
"Thank you, I'm so happy today."
The family of three took a few rare group photos. Joel and Jennifer's mother walked into the theater, leaving her daughter at the door to continue accepting reporters' rounds.
Today is Jennifer Gray's night. She swivels her body and allows the photographer to take pictures.
Jennifer Gray wore a bright red dress that exposed her shoulders and neck. With her slightly naturally curly hair, Gray was the most beautiful star tonight.
After finally showing off her figure, Jennifer Gray came over to hug Ronald and Helen, apologizing and thanking him.
"Sorry, this time I almost couldn't participate in the movie's marketing activities. Thank you."
Seeing that she had put extra care into dressing up today, Ronald stopped mentioning the past unpleasantness and extended his hand to let her show off some of her beautiful figure to reporters and TV cameras live.
"Is your neck okay?"
Seeing that Gray's neck was still a bit stiff and unnatural, Ronald asked with concern when he saw that she was wearing a one-shoulder dress that exposed her beautiful neck.
"It's okay, as long as you don't...ah..."
"Jennifer, why are you alone? I'm here to protect you."
A tall actor, who seemed to have drunk too much, rushed behind Jennifer Gray, hugged Gray's breasts with his hands, and then moved his mouth up and down Gray's neck.
"Ah..." Before Gray could react from the shock, he quickly tried to escape from the other party's bad mouth, which affected the injury on his neck and screamed out in pain.
"Hey, you're drunk."
Ronald got angry, grabbed the back of the other person's hand, twisted it and twisted it half a circle.
The actor was taken away from Jennifer Gray and fell down, making louder pig noises than Gray did just now.
"Ronald, Ronald, it's me...it's me, Eric."
Ronald took a closer look and realized that he knew this long-faced actor. He was the supporting actor in "Runaway Train" directed by Konchalovsky, a director who defected from the Soviet Union, and written by Akira Kurosawa.
Eric Roberts.
He was also nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Supporting Actor, but why was he so drunk?
Ronald relaxed his hand to make Roberts less painful, and then reached out to pull him.
"Um...how much did you drink?" Ronald yelled, covering his nose after pulling up Eric Roberts.
A stench as if he hadn't showered in several days and drank two bottles of rum hit his face.
"I came here to see my sister. She didn't want to see me, so she drank two more drinks, burping..."
"Take him away and send him to the hotel to wake up." Ronald ordered a Daydream staff member to take away Roberts who had drunk too much.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Oh..." A woman walked up to Ronald and made a vomiting motion.
"Ha, Cher. Long time no see." Ronald saw it was Cher, the heroine of "Moonlight". He hadn't seen her for months. Cher didn't wear any of those see-through, leather, fancy clothes today, that's normal.
Wearing a low-key dress, she came to the premiere.
"Long time no see." Cher hugged Ronald and then took a group photo.
"Is this her boyfriend?" Helen's gossip mentality came back again.
"Yes, that's the baker who makes lye bagels."
Ronald shook his head. The power of love is so great. Such a fashion-forward Cher actually dressed like a housewife for her boyfriend.
More and more actors are coming from New York, as well as celebrities and socialites from all walks of life.
Ronald's movie is showing signs of great momentum, and the media and audience's reputation has begun to explode. Just turn on any TV station and open a newspaper, and there are news reports about "Dirty Dancing".
This is what happens in Hollywood. If someone wants to become famous or super rich, many people will come over immediately and ask questions.
…
"Fortunately, you are here and you have saved me a lot of money from crazy bees and butterflies, as well as people who asked me to invest money in their movies."
After the premiere in New York, the audience also went back to buy tickets for the second show. Ronald was in a good mood and did not stay too much at the premiere party this time. He took Helen and went to the Waldorf Hotel to make a reservation.
of large suites.
"Haha... That's fine if that's the case. Would you like to vote for my movie?" Helen took off her coat, wearing a white shirt, and hugged Ronald.
"You don't need me to worry about your movie financing." Ronald knew that her father was a big boss in the TV industry, so he didn't have to worry about no one investing.
"I just want to hear what you have to say." Helen was also very happy to see Ronald and rubbed her nose against Ronald's face.
"Of course, if you need me again, I will always be there." Ronald touched Helen's hand, and Helen's little gesture made him feel very happy.
"Ring ring ring ring..."
The phone rings.
Ronald knew it was a reporting call from Cannold, who was staying in Los Angeles, and made a shushing gesture to Helen.
"How about it?"
"Saturday's momentum is also very good, with a single-day box office exceeding three million. Including Sunday, we expect to know the box office numbers tomorrow morning. In short, it was a great success in the first week. Congratulations, Ronald."
"Congratulations to you too, Michelle. This is a huge success for our pipe dream."
"Hahaha...", the two people started laughing on both sides of the phone. The sweetness of success is really more exciting than the appreciation of film critics.
"I'm so happy." Ronald hung up the phone, hugged Helen and kissed her.
"Ring ring ring ring..."
"Ring ring ring ring..."
On Monday morning, the phone in the room rang several times, and finally Ronald reached out from under the quilt and picked up the phone.
"Hey, it's me, Ronald. You'd better wake me up if you have something important to do."
We had a very crazy time with Helen last night. Ronald looked at his watch and felt a little unhappy because it was still early.
"The box office in the first weekend exceeded 6 million, and it is expected to be ranked first. We won."
"Whose phone number?" Helen stretched out her hand sleepily and rubbed her eyes.
"Hahaha, I've made money." Ronald jumped onto the bed and kissed Helen.
"Hahaha..." Helen was itched by Ronald's stubble and stretched out her white arms to tell him not to act like this.
For a moment, Ronald's ecstatic laughter filled the room:
