"Inception" and "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" Huashan's sword is not as exciting as imagined, the gap between the two is really too big, even in the overseas market commented by the media as "intense competition", in fact two The players are not at the same level. Except for the third and fourth weeks of July, which are relatively close, “Pirates of Dreams” has the absolute upper hand at other times. "Pirates of the Caribbean 4"'s 300 million overseas box office and "Pirates of Dreams"'s 1.2 billion overseas box office, how obvious the gap is, at a glance.
In the end, the so-called Avengers will come to an end. Everyone is praising "Inception", and the records created by this work in the North American and overseas film markets are even more jaw-dropping. The methods are listed as a few examples. Even if it cannot be compared with "Avatar" and "Titanic", "Inception" still recreates history in its own way, creating a new history that belongs to the cooperation between Evan Bell and Christopher Nolan.
With 680 million in North America and 1.911 billion in the world, the historical pace of "Inception" is really appalling. The most important thing is that this is a difficult sci-fi work, and it is not the type that is not easy to create a good box office. But Christopher Nolan and Evan Bell teamed up to make that impossible.
After "Pirates of the Caribbean 2", "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" and "The Dark Knight" dominated the summer season for three consecutive years and the year-end box office champion for three consecutive years, Evan Bell missed the summer competition in 2009, and the final year-end champion also Taken by "Avatar".
However, after returning to the summer season after a year, Evan Bell really handed over a perfect answer. "Inception" easily became the box office champion of this summer season, and also dominated the competition for the year-end box office champion. an absolute advantage. "Inception"'s biggest competitor will also be Warner Bros.'s "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1" released on Thanksgiving.
The summer season is a battleground for the North American box office, and Evan Bell’s dominance over the summer season over the past five years has been so terrifying that almost as long as a live-action movie starring Evan Bell is released, he will Being able to win the summer box office championship is definitely the most terrifying landscape in the North American market today.
Under such a box office background, there is no doubt that "Inception" has participated in the competition for the awards season for three consecutive years after "The Dark Knight" and "Avatar". As for whether this work can break the previous two films did not create. Miracle, what kind of position will it win in the awards season? Is it a historic breakthrough like "Titanic" and "The Lord of the Rings 3"? Or did the "Dark Knight" and "Avatar" fall short of success? The entire North American film market has begun to look forward to it.
"Inception" is in full swing in North America. Evan Bell only participated in the publicity in New York and Los Angeles, and did not follow the crew to promote it all over the world. For Evan Bell's fans, they are actually used to it. , so it did not affect the film's performance at the box office.
After the publicity ended, Evan Bell returned to the "Black Swan" crew in New York to continue filming this classic work of psychology.
"I heard that Venice wants you to take our work to this year's film festival?" Natalie Portman began to relax and warm up. After three days of rest, after re-entering the crew today, the first scene The play starts from the ballet part, and the acting part is relatively less important.
Evan Bell unexpectedly looked at Natalie Portman, "Where did you hear that?"
"The latest issue of 'Los Angeles Times'." Natalie Portman is doing simple basic ballet movements and slowly moving all the links that need to be used when dancing.
Evan Bell suddenly realized, "Oh", "The invitation is sent." Mark Muller's friendship with Evan Bell has continued. From the beginning of the film's preparation stage, Mark Muller took the initiative to express , as long as Evan Bell is willing, the Venice Film Festival will always leave a place for the "Black Swan".
When "Inception" premiered a few days ago, Mark Muller provided the location of the opening film to "Black Swan" and only watched Evan Bell's filming progress, "But I'm not sure now if I can catch up, so I gave a refusal answer for the time being."
It is now July, and the shooting of "Black Swan" has not been completed. Even if the film can be completed before the end of July, there is only one month left for post-production, which is very tight.
In the work of "Black Swan", Evan Bell tried a new shot again. For many shots, when a medium shot or even a panorama can be used, Evan Bell will use a close-up shot: when a close-up shot is required, Evan-Bell will use a close-up shot. Vin-Bell will try to use close-ups again, trying to create a close-fitting effect similar to a documentary, and through the instability of hand-held digital video cameras, to create stalker tension and oppression. Because this is a film about psychological change, Evan Bell hopes to use this way of shooting to bring out all the subtle changes of Nina as the first person, clearly and completely.
The result of this shooting method is that the footage is relatively fragmented, because the footage changes with the subtle changes in psychology, and the post-editing process must be more complicated. Coupled with the soundtrack and the production of some necessary special effects, the entire post-production of "Black Swan" was not easy.
For a month, Evan Bell felt that it was still relatively tight. Although it should be too late to hurry up, but in order not to delay the process of the Venice Film Festival, Evan Bell took the initiative to reject Mark Muller.
Natalie Portman didn't respond, but she didn't ask any further questions, indicating that she accepted Evan Bell's rhetoric.
Evan Bell turned to look at Natalie Portman, "Why, do you want to go to Venice?" Venice in September is still very suitable for vacation.
"Why not?" Natalie Portman chuckled, but in the light and shadow, her and Evan Bell's eyes met, and the waves of light in the eyes of the two people passed silently. warmth. Different from the ambiguous spark, this kind of warmth has a tacit understanding that makes people smile involuntarily. With the topic of "Venice Vacation", the atmosphere is indeed a little unclear.
Natalie Portman involuntarily turned her eyes away and whispered, "I'm ready to start shooting."
Evan Bell coughed lightly, "Yes, of course, why not." Then he heard Natalie Portman's low chuckle, and he couldn't help showing a smile, both of them seemed to share I felt that the moment of embarrassment just now was really funny. The two of them released their smiles completely in an instant, and they laughed very happily for a while.
Evan Bell walked towards the center of the dance studio with a smile on his face, clapped his hands twice, "Everyone, pay attention, the first shot will start in five minutes."
Although it took a three-day break, the crew was obviously not affected too much, and immediately got busy. Soon, the entire crew was ready for Natalie Portman and other actors to be ready for filming. Prepare. Evan Bell also stood in front of the dance classroom, looked at Natalie Portman, and asked, "Are you sure there is no problem with warming up?" Evan Bell knew that ballet had a very high requirement for warming up, Natalie Portman seemed to be chatting with herself just now, not knowing if the warm-up was complete.
Natalie Portman saw Evan Bell's serious expression, and remembered the embarrassment and smile just now, she couldn't help but pursed her lips and laughed. She didn't answer Evan Bell's question, but went directly to the dance On the far left of the room, he used actual actions to show that he was ready to shoot.
Evan Bell did not continue to say anything, but walked behind the camera and said "start shooting".
This scene was a scene where Nina stayed in the dance studio alone to practice. Because of the huge pressure from Thomas and Lily's perfect interpretation of the black swan, Nina had to quickly master the performance of the black swan during this time. And Nina is a perfectionist, she hopes to interpret her every step and every movement to the level of precision, which is the fundamental reason why she has never been compatible with the unrestrained and wild black swan. So, Nina tried to use persistent practice to achieve perfection But during the practice, the staff in charge of playing the piano on the spot were already tired and complained that Nina had been practicing for too long. Turn around and leave, so only Nina is left to practice on the spot. Nina chose to dance alone, humming a tune to the beat.
It was such a relatively simple independent practice scene that became the first scene of the "Black Swan" crew who re-entered the shooting.
With the sound of Evan Bell's start, Natalie Portman began to dance skillfully, starting from the left side of the dance room and dancing towards the middle. It's a pity that Natalie Portman didn't step on the rhythm for the first time, which led to a mistake and had to enter the second shooting.
Not long after the second shooting, Natalie Portman did not step on the footsteps correctly, and her right foot accidentally stepped on the toes of her left foot, and she lost her balance and fell to the ground. , so that the entire crew let out a burst of exclamations.
Evan Bell seemed to be looking at a slow motion, Natalie Portman slowly fell down in line of sight, starting from the right hand to touch the ground, then the right shoulder, and finally the whole person slammed hard. On the ground, it even stirred up a piece of dust in the light and shadow, which made his heart tighten fiercely, his head was blank, and he didn't think about anything, so he went directly in the direction of Natalie Portman rushed out.
