No one can deny that Hugh Jackman and Langley hall are popular actors in the industry.

In a sense, Jackman has more extensive contacts, more outstanding reputation and better image. His friends in the industry are all over the world; However, Lan Li's independence, youth, arrogance and aloofness have really offended many people. Now most of his friends are young people, and the circle is really not big.

Jackman is bound to have the upper hand. But the fact is that after the London premiere of the film version of "les miserables", almost on one side, people gave blue gift higher praise.

Jackman has completed his task properly, and his performance has reached above the standard; However, Langley over fulfilled his task, made a breakthrough, surprised everyone, and even reinterpreted a different Jean Valjean, a different "tragic world".

That's the difference.

At the Oscars ceremony at the beginning of the year, lanli's unexpected ascent to the top really caused a storm, and people in the industry have always complained. The reason is very simple. Mrs. Langley is too young.

When he was just 22 years old, even in the order of Oscar nomination age, it was also before the film history. On the premiere, Jackman mentioned that a work of Langley was being screened in North America, but the news was extremely low-key.

Lanli didn't return to North America for publicity, and the official announcement didn't seem to cause any waves. Even lanli's social network account was quiet and low-key. Everything happened in silence. If it wasn't for the "tragic world", it's estimated that most people would continue to be in the dark.

This kind of posture makes people laugh and cry.

However, for the real senior fans and don Quixotes, the "detached" point screening is never a secret.

As a matter of fact, as early as November 2, "chaotuo" had already started its official screening. At the beginning, it was only in two cinemas in New York and one in Los Angeles. There were only three cinemas in total.

There was no publicity, no ceremony, no announcement, so it started quietly. Tony kayer didn't expect anything at all. As film critics say, this is a work he shot for himself. He didn't expect the box office, the award season, or even the video rental——

When he signed the contract with lenley, Tony gave up part of the video rental dividend. It can be seen that making money and publicity are not his goals. He just wants to complete this artistic creation and leave something behind in the long history. As for the rest, it's up to time.

Because really excellent works of art, after the grinding of time, will eventually bloom; What's more, if a work with such a theme as a movie is forcefully publicized, people will not buy it at all. It's better to let word-of-mouth slowly ferment and spread word-of-mouth so that people can take the initiative to understand and think.

In this way, the effect is better.

Of course, it can also save publicity costs.

As a result, "chaotuo" was shown in three art theaters in accordance with the operation mode of independent art films. It's not easy to be in a hurry - their poster didn't even mention that the work won the best actor award at the Berlin Film Festival.

But to say the least, the face of Lan Li is on the poster, which is the best publicity. Why do you do so much?

What's more, for the real senior professional fans, they are always paying attention to the latest news of art cinema; For the real don Quixotes, they have been eagerly looking forward to the release of "detachment". As long as they have the heart, they will have the channel to learn the relevant information, which is enough.

And it turns out.

After the screening, without any publicity, "chaotuo" got a good box office, with a single box office as high as US $33000. It was a surprise that it gained more than US $99000 in the first weekend of the screening.

Objectively speaking, the US $33000 data of a single library is nothing more than a surge, not to mention a record. Even compared with several of lanli's other works, this data is not comparable. On the record list of film history, even the top 200 can not be included. There's nothing to show.

However, it is a rare achievement for "detachment", not only because there is no publicity, but also because the work itself has a strong effect of rejecting the mainstream audience. If you think about the feedback effect of the Berlin Film Festival in the ice and fire days, you can see that it is still a film Festival, and now it is shown in real life, the situation is naturally more difficult.

Therefore, the "detached" point mapping has made a good start.
