A month later, "Pulp Fiction" produced by Santang Company was officially released. The premiere was held at the Kodak Theater. George Lucas, Quentin Tarantino and all the actors also walked on the red carpet, which was a great momentum.
vast.
The Kodak Theater is the venue for the Oscars. Only Hollywood blockbusters are eligible to hold their premieres here. "Pulp Fiction" is a "double-nothing" work, with an unknown director and unknown actors. The premiere of "Pulp Fiction" at the Kodak Theater is entirely due to
The word-of-mouth spread after a week of screenings.
Lucas invited many media critics and enthusiastic audiences to watch the film in advance, and the result was an explosion of word-of-mouth.
Los Angeles Entertainment Frontline: This is the most surprising movie this year, no, it should be the most surprising movie in five years, maybe ten years... In short, this movie will surprise anyone.
Los Angeles Filmmaker: How would you feel when a killer holds a gun to your head and recites the Bible righteously? This is the feeling after watching this movie. It is simply a breakthrough.
The way humans think….
New entertainment force: Before the movie "Pulp Fiction", no one knew the weird name Quentin Tarantino, but after the movie is released, I believe no one will not know this name...!
Los Angeles Entertainment Today: Three minutes after the last scene of the movie ended, I was still recalling every plot of the movie, trying hard to put the plots together in my way, but finally gave up and had to use Quentin?
Only Tarantino's lens can combine these plots into a complete story. No one can do it except him...!
New York Times Entertainment Edition: Well, I admit that my IQ is somewhat insufficient, but when I saw the name Jimmy Liu appearing in the screenwriter, I suddenly realized that not only is my IQ insufficient, but our IQ is also insufficient...
…!
Everyone who sees this movie in advance will be conquered by Quentin Tarantino's lens language. Such a movie has never appeared on the screen before. Now there is a saying: Quentin Tarantino's lens language has never appeared on the screen before.
Tin Tarantino's "Pulp Fiction" created a new shooting method and named it "circular narrative".
It can be said that "Pulp Fiction" has attracted the attention of movie fans even before it was released, and its box office is destined to be high.
Of course, part of the media's hype relies on Lucas's connections in Hollywood. Without his help, "Pulp Fiction" would not have received so much attention, but you still need to be tough. If this is a
It's a bad movie, and the media won't applaud it unanimously. After all, everyone is not a fool, so you can't lower my IQ because of your support for Lucas!
With a good reputation in the early stage, the movie certainly lived up to expectations. On the day of its release, the U.S. box office exceeded one million U.S. dollars, directly recouping the cost. Four days later, it reached five million U.S. dollars, becoming the only movie this year to have a box office of more than five million U.S. dollars in its first week.
The US dollar movie surpasses many big-budget movies with multi-million investment.
Not only was it a huge success at the box office, but its reputation was also surprisingly good. Some film critics were interested in the bizarre plot and praised the screenwriters, namely Liu Lang and Quentin Tarantino, while others were
Quentin Tarantino's shooting techniques are amazing and I think he is a genius director.
Of course, there are also a few objections. Some media said that the dialogue in this movie is too vulgar and the swear words are unsightly. However, the opponents can only criticize the movie on the dialogue and remain silent on the plot and shooting method. Obviously
"Pulp Fiction" is the best of these two most important elements of a movie.
This is the case in the film critic world. No matter how good a work is, there are still people who don't like it. It's their job to find fault. This is the same virtue as the keyboard warriors of later generations.
After the box office exceeded US$5 million, Lucas held a celebration party in his villa. Liu Lang, as the producer, of course had to attend in person.
There were fifty or sixty people present, all of whom were big names in Hollywood, but the protagonist was Quentin Tarantino, with many well-known producers surrounding him. Quentin was also very high-spirited now, and he was with these rich men.
Talking and laughing.
In addition to Quentin Tarantino, Ye Jinsheng is also the protagonist here. He is wearing a suit and tie, holding a wine glass in his hand and clinking glasses with big-name stars and famous directors and producers. He has completely integrated into the upper class society of Hollywood.
This kind of banquet is a social place, especially in the entertainment industry, and it is a vanity fair. If you create value, you will be sought after by others. Needless to say, Ye Jinsheng, "The Voice of America" is very popular and has attracted the attention of millions of young people. Maybe as
A big name like Michael Jackson wouldn't
To ride on the popularity, but those stars who have just become famous and have not yet become A-listers want to get some light, such as being a guest or something, it is best to become a judge, but the judges of "The Voice" are all powerful, they are saints.
Musicians spend a lot of money to hire them, and not just anyone can do it.
Over there, "The Voice" under Santo Music became popular across the United States, and here, "Pulp Fiction" under Santo Pictures came out. Quentin Tarantino became famous because of it and became a "genius director". His
Talent is like a diamond buried deep in the ground. It is dazzling as soon as it comes out. Many film and television companies are eyeing him and want to make movies with him.
Liu Lang didn't like this kind of social banquet. After greeting everyone at the beginning, he found some food and ran to a corner, where he and Sun Hu sat at a table to eat and drink. At this time, Lucas came over.
"Liu, you are the big boss of Shengtang Company. Now our Shengtang has won a complete victory on both fronts. You are the number one contributor. Why don't you celebrate with everyone?"
"George, that's your adults' business, I won't get involved...and I'm very hungry now and need to eat!"
Liu Lang was holding a plate in his hand, with a freshly grilled steak on it. The banquet invited a chef to prepare a buffet for everyone, including steaks, fried chicken legs, Mexican rolls, cheese, fruit salad, desserts, etc. It was very rich.
In Liu Lang's eyes, these foods are more attractive.
"Ha, Liu, it's very comfortable to work with you. You don't participate in management and operation, but you can lead us to make money. This is a first-class boss. And your vision is so amazing. Ye, Quentin, they are all
Discovered by you.
Especially Quentin Tarantino, this young man is indeed talented... By the way, I have to tell you some good news. The movie "Pulp Fiction" has exceeded 5 million US dollars in less than a week, and it is gaining momentum.
It is getting stronger and stronger, beyond my expectation. If this momentum continues, the box office will be at least 30 million in one month's release period. The overseas box office may be even more than this number, so the big screen alone will have at least 6,000
A box office of 10,000,000, or even 70 or 80 million is not impossible.
Not counting the release of later video tapes, this is the big one. Now the evaluation agency has made preliminary statistics. "Pulp Fiction" is expected to have a total global box office of 120 million, becoming the second film in three years to have a box office of over 100 million.
movie, Quentin Tarantino will also create a miracle. He is the first director to direct a movie with a box office of over 100 million. I have to say, this is a miracle!"
