Chapter 412： end of school term

Released in 560 movie theaters, the single-house box office of the "adapted script" continued to be strong, but this time the "adapted script" won the single-house box office champion for six consecutive weeks. In the seventh week, he lost to "Chicago" and finished second.

Although it lost the single-house box office champion, the single-house performance of 13,000 is still enough for "Adapted Script" to grab the box office of US$7.28 million in three weekends in its seventh week of release, ranking at the North American box office. seventh on the leaderboard. At this moment, the cumulative box office of "Adapted Screenplay" has exceeded 20 million, and it has reached the figure of 21 million US dollars.

With an investment of 19 million US dollars, Columbia Pictures never thought that it would be able to exceed the cost figures at the box office during the awards season. After all, the "adapted screenplay" is really not good at the box office, so Columbia Pictures has always been They all put their energy on public relations promotion during the awards season, but unexpectedly, in addition to being well received, the film has also aroused a large and small following among the audience. In mid-January, the box office broke through. 20 million, which made Columbia Pictures very happy.

Although "Adapted Screenplay" has not always been a strong contender on the box office charts, but relying on strong word of mouth and screenwriter Charlie Kaufman's exquisite script, it has still won the affirmation of the audience, and more importantly, Evan A. Bell's performance in it made many people look at it again.

The word-of-mouth accumulated in "Chasing the Murderer in the White Night" and "Sniper at the Phone Booth" broke out completely in the "adapted script".

For the film "Adapted Script" itself, Rotten Tomatoes has a freshness rating of 68%, which is barely considered a good score. In IMDB's scoring system, after more than 50,000 viewers voted, the "adapted script" scored 7.2 points, which is not outstanding, but it also confirmed that the audience's views on the film are still more praise than criticism.

Compared with the calmness of the "adapted script" score, Evan-Bell's score has made a qualitative leap. After the release of "Sniper Phone Booth", Evan-Bell broke into the top 20 in IMDB's actor rating system. Although he was only in the 18th place, he was still a great affirmation. After the "adaptation of the script" this time, Evan Bell's name broke into the top ten in one fell swoop, and the highest one even came to the fifth place for a week, and then fell to the seventh place and stabilized.

If Si Maozhao is the audience's affirmation of Evan-Bell, then public opinion generally believes that Evan-Bell must have achieved something in this year's awards season, which is the affirmation of him by professionals.

Under this trend, although the "adapted script" has been stable at the box office without any bright spots, the weekly box office of the individual halls is still good, and there are always surprises. In the third week of February, the cumulative box office hit 30 million, and it has yet to be released on Columbia Pictures. Before VD "adapted the script", it created a miracle at the box office.

And later, when the Oscars were approaching, Columbia Pictures once again expanded the scope of the release, relying on the box office performance of the single hall that never disappointed everyone, and finally the cumulative box office of the "adapted script" reached 35 million US dollars.

In fact, this is the beginning of the "adapted screenplay" revenue. After the awards season, the "adapted screenplay" carried the reputation of the awards season and once again "made waves" at the box office. At the end of April, the box office score was 39 million. The dollar market also swept in more than $10 million in revenue throughout 2003, leaving Columbia Pictures numb.

Obviously, many people did not expect the success of the "adapted script" at the box office, but the double-line victory of word-of-mouth and box office is a fact, and it also made Evan Bell's reputation in the film's face, finally not be Musically put too far away.

When "Adapted Screenplay" was just released, Evan Bell couldn't find time to care about the results and media reviews of his new film, because he was working overtime in the Caribbean. The filming of the movie went smoothly, everything was going according to the expected rhythm except for Keira Knightley and the crew getting seasick.

Although Evan-Bell has appeared in the Caribbean, he returns to Bōston every Monday, rain or shine, to fulfill his obligations. Fortunately, it was already the end of November when we arrived in the Caribbean, and the fall semester of 2002 was coming to an end.

It's another Monday, the penultimate week of the fall semester, so-called final exams next week, and then the holidays. However, there is no exam in Evan-Bell's course, but the final assessment is conducted in the form of topics, so it means that today's class is the last class of the semester.

Although Evan Yibei is still the focus, under the starlight of the awards season, it is still relatively unsightly. Moreover, the media all know that Evan Bell has devoted himself to the filming of "Pirates of the Caribbean" recently, and has not heard anything from outside the window, and there is not much news to dig. Therefore, Evan-Bell's trip back to Harbin University was not followed at all by the paparazzi, which also allowed Evan-Bell to enjoy the long-lost tranquility.

Not to mention, the interaction with students during class has made many people fall in love with psychology and start to study psychology, the sense of accomplishment. So, tired and exhausted, but Evan Bell is still very satisfied.

However, if he is allowed to take the class next semester, Evan Bell is reluctant. He hopes to have the time and energy to learn more new things. One experience in basic psychology substitute class is enough. Moreover, Muller-Lance didn't want his proud disciple to be overkill, and he has been teaching basic psychology classes to freshman students.

Muller-Lance greeted Evan-Bell at the end of last month, and said that there are probably several topics for the next semester, and Evan-Bell would choose one to be in charge and do research together with Muller-Lance. This is the part of a real graduate program that needs to be delved into.

Walking into the fifth amphitheater, it was already five minutes past two. Evan Bell looked at the number of people in the classroom, walked up to the podium and said with a smile, "Is it my illusion? Does the classroom feel that the number of people is increasing, or am I being too narcissistic?" There was a burst of laughter in the classroom. Since the official change to the fifth lecture hall, Evan-Bell's class has always been crowded. Even if someone skips the class, other students who are in attendance will make up for it, so the class is always lively.

"Which other group has not published?" Although Evan-Bell was asking a question, he looked down at his notes. "The two groups of personality theory, who came first?" Evan-Bell pointed it out directly. , a dozen people immediately raised their hands. "Miss Hannah, please."

Evan Bell stepped aside and began to listen to today's announcement. After the presentation is over, the students in the audience will ask questions about their doubts, and the members of the presentation team are responsible for answering them. If there is any misunderstanding or content that you do not understand, please give it to Evan Bell to explain it.

After the two groups had finished their presentations, an hour and a half had passed without knowing it.

Evan-Bell stood on the podium, "Okay All the publications for this semester have ended.

Next, the usual question time, accepted for any question in Basic Psychology. "After each class, Evan-Bell will openly accept questions, so that everyone can further understand the content of the class. If there are still questions, you can ask more questions.

Evan-Bell also smiled, "If it's about my girlfriend, I'm currently single." One answer made all the classmates boo.

Afterwards, there were still students asking questions. After nearly 40 minutes in the questioning session, Evan Yibel breathed a sigh of relief, "Huh, then this semester's basic psychology class ends here. The deadline is December 18, and finally, I hope everyone can get a good grade in the exam next week." When Evan Bell's voice fell, more than 500 students in the class stood up, silently speaking.
