Chapter 1139: Find another way
It was silent, and there was no sound in the entire Wilhelm Theater screening room.
It is not a dead silence, but "you can clearly detect the disorder of breathing and heartbeat. There are trivial noises and hustle and bustle floating in the air, and your mind is turbulent. Everyone is immersed in their own brainstorm and has no time for the time being. When discussing with others, I am not sure whether I have sorted my thoughts clearly, I am just exchanging glances." The kind of quietness.
The undercurrent is surging; but there is still no movement.
Then.
Someone lowered their voice and carefully squeezed out words in the silence.
"Jesus Christ, is this the end?"
"In his opinion, this is the only option."
"But..."
"However, we always expect that we can save the world like a superhero, but in real life, we often plunge ourselves into desperate situations step by step."
"Perhaps, he doesn't have to..."
"But he thinks it is necessary."
Russily speaking in a low voice, the storm in his mind inadvertently leaked a little, Quickly stir up the dull air in the screening room.
Once you start, you can never stop.
Looking along the sound, I could see a familiar profile face in the gradually brightening light of the screening room, and it was—
Anson and Heath.
Obviously, Heath was not satisfied. He held his breath and sat there blankly, looking left and right at the audience who were sitting neatly. After all, he swallowed his words, looked up at the sky, and said depressedly. Let out a breath.
That look is so funny that you can’t help but laugh.
Besides, Rachel sighed softly, her side face showing a little sadness.
“Perhaps, this is precisely the most helpless part of fate. He has trapped himself, and it seems that no matter how he solves it, he still cannot find the answer.”
"So, do you also think that in this way, everyone will be happy in the end?"
Rachel looked at Anson -
What does this sentence mean?
A small circle of spectators all around turned their heads and looked over, paying attention together.
Anson shook his head decisively, "No."
Heh.
There were exclamations all around.
This made Anson look around, "Hey, the movie is over, there is no post-screening communication today, so if you are ready to go home, you can leave now."
The gesture of rushing away guests , making the surrounding audience burst into low laughter.
“What about you?” an audience member boldly asked.
Anson lightly shrugged, "This is also my first time watching the complete version of a movie. I now have many thoughts and doubts and urgently need to communicate."
Nicholas's eyes lit up: Bingo!
Now he finally knows why this scene is so familiar and intimate -
Film Festival!
From the appearance at the premiere to the free mode without a red carpet to the free communication after the screening, it is completely a fan version of the film festival mode.
It seems that Anson should really enjoy this year's trip to the Cannes Film Festival, not because of the Palme d'Or, but because of the time spent exchanging dialogues with fans.
So, Anson simply moved the film festival format to the Wilshere Theater tonight.
Wonderful!
Amazing!
You can tell just by looking at it. The surrounding audience was in awe and commotion. One or two of them were not in the mode of fanatic fans, but in the mode of movie fans.
It just so happens that a movie like "The Butterfly Effect" that triggers brainstorming needs just such a moment, not the media's pursuit and the film critics' praise, but everyone's collision from their own perspective.
Bring the movie back to the audience.
After the bomb Anson threw caused ripples, he did not say anything more, but turned to look at Rachel and returned to the topic just now.
"In my opinion, the ending is fixed at the moment when Andrea is lying on the hospital bed, and everything is over. The subsequent scenes are all Evan's own fantasies. He believes that he His disappearance can bring happiness to everyone, but this is just his wishful thinking." Before Rachel could speak, Heath immediately asked, "But why?"
Anson, "Jason."
What?
Who?
Wow?
The rustling sounds next to me couldn't stop at all, it was so lively.
However, Nicholas liked the atmosphere, which was different from the premiere.
In fact, post-screening dialogue can be seen everywhere, but there are still differences.
The post-screening conversation at the film festival allows the creative team and the audience to have an in-depth dialogue about the film. The quality of the post-screening often depends on the quality of the audience and the artistic quality of the creative team.
The post-screening conversation at the premiere is an occasion for the film company to promote the movie. The post-screening conversation often revolves around behind-the-scenes footage or promotional templates, which is basically a business exchange.
In front of us, New Line Cinema is indeed bold and bold, continuing the free and open style of tonight's premiere and completely opening up the restrictions on post-screening conversations.
Moreover, it is not a dialogue between the audience and the creative team. The creative team also integrates into the scene as an audience and starts a conversation on an equal footing.
The whole atmosphere is completely different, relaxed and comfortable, filled with joy and excitement.
There is no work pressure, no social test, and no marketing tasks.
Let movies return to movies.
The seemingly simple movements return to nature and give the initiative to the audience.
Not only brave, but confident.
With just this gesture, the "Butterfly Effect" crew has already won.
What's more, don't forget that the audience capacity of the Wilshere Theater is twice that of the Chinese Theater. If you exclude the special guests invited by the film company, such as reporters, producers, film critics and sponsors, etc. Wait, then the actual movie audience at the Wilshere Theater is probably three to four times that of the Chinese Theatre.
So, New Line Cinema's move means that it completely leaves the word of mouth to the audience.
Tomorrow’s market reaction is worth looking forward to.
Interesting, this is so much fun.
But Nicholas has no time to think about these marketing and distribution strategies now, and his attention is completely captured by Anson.
There, Anson did not pause.
“The movie has emphasized twice that Andrea had miscarried three times before, and Evan had the fourth miscarriage. What does this mean?”
“And what about Jason? ?”
"Three times before, Jason has always been loyal to Andrea, so why after the fourth time, Jason can't stand it anymore?"
"In the ending we saw, Here, Andrea broke up with Jason and then married another stranger and had a healthy 'miracle baby.'"
"This is unreasonable."
So, Anson. I think the happy and perfect ending shown on the big screen is just Evan's own wishful thinking.
Rachel immediately grasped the key point, "Huh." She took a breath and looked at Anson with astonishment on her face, "Jason once tried to kill Evan when he was in the mental hospital, just to save Anson. Delia.”
First, it shows that Jason is deeply in love with Andrea.
Secondly, this also shows that——
Heath also kept up with the rhythm, "You mean, Jason has been going back to the past through photos, and then he became obsessed and became insane. Was he trying to save Andrea?"
"Like Evan was trying to save Caleb?"
"And Jason failed every time..."
Heath's brain immediately stopped and he did not continue to finish the sentence.
There was a lot of astonishment all around, and then someone said with hesitation and disbelief, "Do you mean that in Andrea's three previous miscarriages, Evan ended his own life?"
As soon as the words came out, the scene was filled with exclamations of surprise.
