Putting aside the reputation of the movie, when a movie is previewed in an art theater, it tests the attractiveness and appeal of the production team. Since the audience of the art theater is experienced and experienced film fans, there are even professionals in the industry, they are very strict in choosing movies, but directors or actors who can be recognized in their eyes will be enthusiastically sought after, and the popularity during the preview is naturally foreseeable.

To give a brief example, Woody Allen's appeal in the New York area is unrivaled. When his works are previewed in the art theaters in New York, they will inevitably be full of scenes. Intellectuals absolutely support Woody unconditionally. No matter the quality of the finished product, the audience will at least be willing to flock to the cinema to appreciate the work and then express their opinions.

Therefore, this is how the pre-show box office of live-action movies came about. This is how the "Schindler's List" achieved great results. In a sense, the box office appeal of directors, screenwriters or actors who can win the box office of art theaters is more stable.

With Hugo's current strong influence in the United States, almost every work of his will inevitably attract a lot of attention, which is also the fundamental reason why people always have strong confidence in the premiere of Hugo's works. Naturally, people also have more expectations for the premiere of the "Beautiful Heart", especially when the praises are rampant after the internal preview.

On the list of many North American records of Hugo, the single-story box office record is one of the few that does not belong to Hugo.

On the current box office history rankings of single-stage works, "Schindler's List" released in 1993 still ranks ninth. The top eight are "The Lion King" in 1994, "Poems of the Wind" in 1995, "Toy Story 2" just released last month, "The Bugs Team" in 1998, "Hercules" in 1997, "The True and False Princess" in 1997, "Aladdin" in 1992, and "Mrs. Veron" in 1996.

However, among the top ten, only two works are live-action movies, and all the others are cartoons, so there is no comparison. Among live-action movies, "Schindler's List" ranks second in film history, only behind "Madame Perron"'s $97,000 single-player box office data.

It can be seen that even though five years have passed, "Schindler's List" is still one of the most important works in film history. The outstanding performance of the single-story box office proves the high attention of this work during the preview. However, back then, it was more relied on Steven Spielberg's appeal, and Hugo was only a supporting role; now, "Beautiful Mind" relies more on Hugo's appeal.

Hugo has now set countless records, almost all the records that an actor can get are signed with Hugo's name, but the box office record of the single-stage restaurant is not. This has also become one of the hot topics that the media is most concerned about when the "Beautiful Mind" is released.

On December 17, the "Beautiful Heart" was previewed in the Eleventh Cinema, which quietly became the biggest hot topic.

From 12 a.m. on the 17th, a large number of audiences gathered at the entrance of the theater chain where previews were held, waiting for the release of the "Beautiful Heart". Incredible that at 12 a.m., the 11 theater chains were all full. This is unimaginable for any movie, which reminds people of the situation when the "Death-in-Law" was released.

However, the theaters that were screened "Deathly Walking" were not prepared enough, which allowed a large number of movie fans to accumulate at the entrance of the theater and were unable to enter the theater for a long time. After that, it unexpectedly created an unimaginable enthusiasm for watching movies, and made the heavy-themed work "Deathly Walking" even achieved a North American box office of 83 million, which is really a miracle.

This time, after receiving the news, Eleven Cinemas were fully prepared. Not only did they arrange screens, but also made corresponding adjustments and changes in the schedule of pre-sale tickets, so as to satisfy the enthusiasm of movie fans for watching movies as soon as possible.

Facts proved the wisdom of these theaters, because from the midnight show at 12 o'clock, the next "Beautiful Mind" screenings were almost full, and the enthusiasm of the fans could not stop. From Friday to Saturday, tickets were still in short supply. Even the pre-sale tickets for Sunday were sold out early. Some movie fans even waited at the cinema ticket office eight hours in advance to purchase the live tickets released on the day.

Such a scene reminds people of the grand occasion of the war in the century three years ago.

Unconsciously, "Beautiful Mind" created a strange record: the eleven theaters on the weekend preview were 69 screens, all tickets were sold out, and the attendance rate was 99%. Except for a few spectators who could not attend due to accidents, a small number of them could not be seated due to damage to seats, all other sessions and seats were completely full.

This means that the "Beautiful Mind" has reached the best expected by the film company's distribution department. All the shows were full for three consecutive days and twenty-four hours, and all the box office potential of the 11 theaters was fully tapped. This is a perfect idea during the distribution process, and the preview effect was completely maximized.

Such a perfect situation is not unreplicable. Maybe someone will achieve such an effect later, but it is certain that this has become one of the best labels for the preview weekend of "Beautiful Mind".

Amid the media's exclamations, "Beautiful Mind" handed over a miracle of $130,000 in a single museum box office, and swept the weekend box office of $1.43 million in eleven theaters, which quickly triggered a tsunami-like chain reaction in the North American market!

People are all looking forward to the "beautiful mind" that can create history, and the "beautiful mind" creates history in this way, easily allowing the "Madame Peron" single-camera box office history record of 97,000 US dollars, and taking this historical record to Hugo's name; but people did not expect such a result. "beautiful mind" not only created a record, but also completely rewrites the box office trend history of art theater preview works in a destructive manner.

How valuable is it to be a single-player box office of 130,000 US dollars? This not only surpasses "Mrs. Peron" and "Schindler's list", but has become the current single-player box office champion in live-action movie history; even in the single-player box office list of all movies, it can rank sixth, and is particularly conspicuous among a number of cartoons.

Most importantly, this is the first live-action work in the history of films with a single-stage box office of more than 100,000 US dollars, and this result was created by pre-screening of 11 theaters. This pre-screening scale is the only work among the top ten overall lists with double-digit pre-screening of theaters.

Works such as "The Lion King", "Poems of the Wind", and "Toy Story 2" were only screened in one or two theaters during preview, which will undoubtedly bring all audiences together and increase efforts to create a single-cabin box office miracle. "The Lion King" screened at Disneyland created a single-cabin box office miracle of $790,000, and no movie can break this record or even get close to it.

However, the "Beautiful Mind" was released in 11 theaters and still achieved a box office of 130,000 yuan in a single studio. This is not only a miracle, but also a myth. It is hard to imagine that in 1999, a live-action movie could achieve such a success! Even twenty years later, this achievement can still rank among the top five in the live-action movie box office list!

Amid the fanatical pursuit of movie fans, "Beautiful Mind" has rewritten history, and the preliminary cinema scores have proved the audience's madness. The score of "a+" can be regarded as a full score. This score is even far beyond the media comprehensive review, showing the audience's high evaluation of this work.

From the excellent reviews of the film critics to the eager responses of the audience, the "Beautiful Mind" is rising strongly, completely disrupting the lake during the awards ceremony season. Even though the crew did not launch any relevant plans for the academy's public relations, and even if neither Hugo nor Charlize carried out relevant cooperation promotion, countless question marks began to emerge.

Will "Beautiful Mind" become the biggest hit at the Oscar this year? Will Hugo really compete for the best actor again? Charlize unconsciously won the acting award for two consecutive years, so he became a hot hit for the third time this year? Leonardo, Heath and others' performances are also excellent enough. Does it mean that there is also a competition for supporting actors? As a screenwriter, Hugo's work has been recognized by many professionals. Should Hugo win another best adapted script after "perfection"?

The excitement of the awards season was completely boiling because of the emergence of the "beautiful soul". Regardless of whether the crew carried out related publicity, the quality of the work was there, and no one could ignore the powerful presence of this work.

Of course, this is just the result of the preview of "Beautiful Mind" in 11 theaters. After the movie is fully released, will the reputation change, will the box office be satisfactory, and can more and more professional opinions remain consistent? These will inevitably affect the trend of "Beautiful Mind" in the following awards season.

However, no one can ignore the existence of this work.

The preview of "Beautiful Mind" has just ended. DreamWorks announced that this work will be expanded in 500 theaters in the next week. The overall influence has quickly risen to a higher level, showing their strong confidence in this work. At the same time, the 57th Golden Globe Awards also announced the nomination list at the first time. Without any doubt, the Hollywood Foreign Reporter Association chose this work as the biggest hit!
