Chapter 106 106

Nicholas of the Los Angeles Times selected Hugo and Brad as opponents in the report.

They are also involved with Tracy and participated in the audition of "The Love of the River" and "Yihai Heroes". These can only be said to be subjective reasons. More importantly, Hugo and Brad are as tall and handsome, and have a sunny and righteous temperament in their temperament. However, Brad is more unruly, while Hugo is warmer. You should know that in the actor industry, the competition between similar actors is very cruel, and there is often only one winner. The reason why Hugo and Brad meet in the audition of the two works in a short period of time is a solid proof.

Therefore, when Nicholas listed these two people as opponents, many people expressed surprise. After all, they had no head-on confrontation before, but they had to agree with it in the surprise. So, when "Dahe Love" and "Smelling the Incense to Know Women" were released one after another, people couldn't help but get excited.

"The Love of the River" released last week has achieved a good reputation, with a media comprehensive review of 68 points, a cinema score of "b", and a commentary performance is also very good. The views on Brad are all focused on his innocent smile, believing that he has the style of director Robert Redford when he was young, and the nickname "Redford's successor" spread wildly, and at the same time it also made Brad's popularity rise again, continuing the positive impact of the previous "endless flower".

At this time, Brad was still a complete newcomer. Whether it was the "End of the Boy" or the "Love of the River", he was an absolute supporting role and did not have many roles, but Brad's performance in both works won a lot of praise, which made people think of the situation when Hugo first debuted.

The media review of "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing Women" released this week was 72 points, and the theater score "b+" can be said to be slightly ahead of "Dahe Love". In terms of evaluation of Hugo, "acting opposite Al" does not fall behind", "re-revitalizing talent in acting", and "dedicating wonderful performances" have an absolute advantage, especially the negative impact brought by the "Hudson Eagle" has been diluted a lot in this wonderful performance, and people remember Hugo's wonderful time in the "Death Poetry Club" in 1989.

In the head-on confrontation between Brad and Hugo, Hugo obviously received more attention. Because Hugo's rival actor is Al, and Al contributed a palace-level performance in the movie. Under such pressure, Hugo still did not fall for the worst, which made Hugo's excellence more and more.

"Us Weekly" joked enthusiastically in the comments he wrote, "In the face of Brad's fierce challenge, although Hugo lost the audition of "Da River Love", he fought back with the wonderful performance of "Smelling the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent of the Scent

When Brad saw this comment from "Us Weekly", he became irritated. Last week he was complacent about the praise of "Dahe Love", but now Hugo gave him a bucket of cold water with such a wonderful performance, which really made Brad hold his breath and didn't know where to vent.

First, the audition of "Yihai Xiongfeng" lost, and then the advantage of "Dahe Love" was gone in front of "Smelling the fragrance and knowing women". Thinking back to his complacentness after the audition of "Dahe Love", Brad felt his cheeks more and more burning.

"Brad, don't..." Agent Martin Baum looked very calm after countless storms and waves. In fact, he was also constantly rolling inside, but he just didn't want to show it. In Martin's opinion, although "Smelling the Fragrance to Know Women" performed very well, "Dahe Love" performed well, and Brad could not be considered a failure at all.

But the young and energetic Brad couldn't listen to these advices and directly interrupted Martin's words, "Don't want anything? Don't be angry? How is that possible! Haven't you seen the comments from the media? They always compare me and Hugo together, and they just didn't say that I was defeated miserably. This is a shame! Shame!"

Martin opened his mouth and swallowed the words in his throat, "Didn't you take the initiative to compete with Hugo?". It is definitely not a good thing to stimulate Brad at this time. As far as Martin knows, there seems to be a problem between Brad and Tracy Jacobs recently. If he adds fuel to the fire now, things will probably be out of control.

So Martin's words turned into, "Recalling the media's comments about you, it was full of praise. No one said that you performed poorly, no! Have you forgotten the praises of the media? Now it's just that Hugo's performance has returned to warm, you are starting to panic, anxious, and worried. Can't your brain calm down?"

Martin's series of words made Brad dizzy. In fact, he didn't hear the content clearly at all. He only knew that Martin kept praising him before emphasizing the media, which made Brad calm down a little.

"But, the box office of his movie is better than mine!" Brad was still not completely awake. He suddenly thought of one thing again. The box office of "Dahe Love" last week was 25,000 US dollars, which was not as good as "Smelling the Fragrance"; while the box office of "Dahe Love" this week was 19,000 US dollars, and he lost in a head-on confrontation with "Smelling the Fragrance". It was also a good art film, but it was already sad enough to lose its reputation, but it was defeated in the box office, which really made Brad mind very much.

"So what? This is just the first week, and it's useless to get angry." Martin looked at the broken coffee cup on his carpet and couldn't help but sigh. If it weren't for Brad's bright future, Brad broke the coffee cup because he was too excited when he heard the box office results of "Smelling the Flavor and Knowing Women" just now, he would have got angry, but Martin still endured it.

Martin looked at Brad, who was still angry, "Not mentioning the next box office trend, I don't know. Even if the performance of "Smelling the Scent of the Scent" is better this time, you still have countless opportunities in the future, right? You are in the rising period now, and Hugo has only recovered once, and the future situation is still uncertain. You will still have opportunities to compete with each other. You will win back then."

This time Brad finally calmed down and listened quietly to Martin's words. Martin struck while it was hot, "Do you have no confidence in yourself?"

"Who said it!" Brad immediately became furious and said excitedly with a blushing face, "Next time, I will definitely win next time!"

Thinking of Tracy's first comments on "Smelling the Flavor and Knowing Women", he joked with director Robert, "What would happen if Hugo played?" Although it was just a joke, Robert replied with a smile, "Better handsome than me?" He was not serious at all, but even so, Brad still remembered it in his heart.

Thinking of this, Brad bit his teeth hard and clenched his fists, "It must!"

However, Brad's wish is destined to be disappointed this time, because in the head-on battle between "Da River Love" and "Smelling the Incense and Knowing the Women", the latter took the lead with an absolute advantage.

In the fourth week of October, "Dahe Love" took the lead in expanding the screening scale. One hundred and thirty theaters won a weekend box office of US$1.58 million, ranking among the top ten in the weekend box office rankings and ranked ninth. And the "Smelling the Woman" who still sticks to the 20 theaters continue to be previewed, driven by excellent reputation, the box office of a single museum has not dropped but increased. The single museum data of US$30,000 has brought the film's weekend box office to 600,000, ranking 14th among the seventeen films on the list.

Even so, the box office of "Smelling the fragrance and knowing women" still amazed everyone.

In the fifth week of October, "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Woman" also launched a comprehensive expansion with the trend of outstanding reputation, and was released on 1,100 theaters across the United States on a large scale. From this expansion data, Universal Pictures' super high confidence in movies is seen. The performance of "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Woman" also rewarded Universal Pictures' trust. It won the box office of 7 million US dollars in three days on the weekend. In everyone's surprised eyes, it actually won the championship of the North American weekend box office rankings this week. This really made countless people fall below glasses. Even the most bold box office forecasting experts did not expect the current situation!

This also makes this week's North American movie box office rankings look a strange situation.

The "under.private ege" that won three consecutive championships was pulled down and occupied the runner-up position with a data of $6.1 million; while "Dahe Love", which continued to expand in 800 theaters, won the weekend box office of $4.2 million, and rose to the third place.

No one expected such a list. Not to mention that the art film "Dahe Love" has risen to third place, there are many works with box office strength such as "Candyman" and "The Last Mohicans" behind it; just talking about "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Woman" such as "Smelling the Fragrance" that did not have any box office competitiveness actually achieved unexpected results, defeating a series of works with strong performance on the list. Especially after three consecutive championships, the "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Woman" has accumulated a box office of 50 million US dollars, which was replaced, and "Smelling the Fragrance and Knowing the Woman" won the weekend box office championship, which is definitely a surprise.

At this time, "Smelling the Fragrance" that was released for three weeks has accumulated a box office of 9 million US dollars. The book cost has been recovered, and it seems that it is not a problem to achieve profitability. In addition, the excellent reputation has won a good position for the film at the upcoming award ceremony. It can be said that Universal Pictures' investment this time is really wise.

Not to mention the media's whine before the movie was released, even if Universal Studios had a lot of complaints about director Martin Bleister's choice of Hugo, they could not vote enough trust in the winner of the Golden Raspberry Award. But now? This seems to be an excellent choice.
