After the mournful funeral, life will continue. Shelby ’s son, Jack Mori, grows up every day under the darling of everyone, and the pregnant Anne tells Shelby ’s mother Maureen that she hopes her child After birth, both men and women were called 'Shelby'. In memory of the persevering but lifeless little woman, Morin agreed with tears.

Another year of Easter, the vibrant suburbs in the spring, the happy picnic party, the big belly of Annel suddenly felt severe abdominal pain, and everyone hurriedly helped Anell to the off-road vehicle. The car passed through the crowd, through the street market, across the bridge, and the melodious harmonica sounds, the picture is fixed on a river covered by green trees.

Subtitles rise slowly ...

"tomorrow-is-another-day," Elizabeth · Murdoch sitting next to the back row Julia couldn't help but say the conclusion in 《Gone with the Wind》, although the life experiences of several women in 《Steel Magnolias》 are far inferior to Hao Scarlett in 《Gone with the Wind》 Decades of sadness, tragic life experiences, and even the women in 《Steel Magnolias》 have never experienced a violent emotional outburst. The strongest emotions are also contained in the silent overflowing tears, but the emotions contained in the plain and trivial But it is no less than the vicissitudes of the world in which Hao Scarlett experienced under the background of the turbulent chaos. The jeep that is drifting away is a symbol of hope and hope for the future.

The lights were on, no one took the lead, and everyone in the screening room applauded consciously.

"Julia, this film is really great, I think Shelby's role is even more plump than Vivian in 《Pretty Woman》." Elizabeth applauded and said sincerely to Julia ear.

"Thank you, this ... miss," Julia patted his palm lightly, and looked at the beautiful girl beside him again in the light.

Elizabeth just remembered that I have n’t introduced myself so far, and quickly reached out a small hand: "Sorry, Julia, my name is Elizabeth · Murdoch, you can call me Liz."

"Hello, Liz," Julia shook hands with each other politely, and his expression did not change much. Obviously, Julia did not know what the surname Murdoch meant.

Elizabeth does n’t mind, continue to whisper: "Julia, why did you just say that Eric Williams is an asshole?"

"Ah! I ... that sentence I just said was not aimed at AI ... Mr. Williams, just by chance, Mr. Williams is a very good person, without him, I am still just a little unknown Actor." Julia try to Let yourself behave calmly, but the flashing eyes betray the girl deeply.

Elizabeth's mouth twitched a light playful smile, and did not continue to ask this embarrassing topic: "Julia, can you tell me something about Eric Williams, I plan to use the success of several of his movies as a reason My thesis project. "

"Liz, maybe you should ask him personally. I do n’t know much about it." Although Julia did n’t realize the family history of the girl from the girl ’s surname, she knew from the other ’s words that the girl seemed Not very familiar with Eric, plus the cheerful personality of Elizabeth self-familiar, Julia gradually let go of Elizabeth.

"It's okay, just tell me what you know ..." Elizabeth felt the subtle change of Julia's emotions, so he started to make persistent efforts and asked about topics he was interested in.

At the same time, the seven Film Studio executives who watched 《Steel Magnolias》 also had their own concerns.

Although Michael · Eisner expressed its appreciation to Eric as soon as the movie was finished, it was more of a polite one, but in fact it was a bit disappointing.

《Steel Magnolias》 is too bland. Although there are a lot of highlights, there are almost no ups and downs in the plot, which is completely inconsistent with his taste. As a powerful assistant of Barry · Diller who put forward the theory of 'high-concept film', Michael · Eisner saw the rise of Paramount under the guidance of this theory in Barry · Diller step by step, so it naturally became a ' The loyal supporter of the high-concept movie 'theory, the reason why Disney rises rapidly under the control of Michael · Eisner has a lot to do with this set of movie theories he insists on.

The 《Steel Magnolias》 is completely unrelated to the high-concept movie. If you compare it with the type of article, the high-concept movie theme is like a fun novel, and 《Steel Magnolias》 is a timeless prose. Director Herbert · Ross, which has more than 20 years of experience in film production, is undoubtedly everyone's essay, but this theme is also destined not to have too much market.

Although it is not optimistic, it does not prevent Michael · Eisner's determination to win the distribution rights of this movie, otherwise, he will not come here today. Because he valued this point: this movie is Eric Williams optimistic, with the amazing results achieved in the previous films of Eric, this reason is enough.

Sitting on the other side of Eric, Paramount Chairman Nad Tarn's evaluation of the movie is similar to Michael · Eisner. However, the rest of the movie ends, the old guy kept talking to Eric, hoping to hear from Eric The specific Box Office of this movie is expected so that Paramount can make a more accurate share price.

Five years after Paramount left Barry · Diller, this year ’s performance has begun to decline significantly. Although 《Indiana Jones》 has achieved North America 200 million Box Office, global Box Office and more than 400 million amazing Box Office results, but because of the strength of Lucas Film Industry and Steven · Spielberg's, Paramount got The profit share is not even as good as the bonus that Columbia got from "Home Alone" after being pitted against the gambling contract. Therefore, Paramount attaches great importance to the two films of Eric. If it is not Paramount's current CEO Frank. Mancuso really failed to make time, it must be him, not second-hand leader Nad Tarn.

Although I do n’t like 《Steel Magnolias》, it ’s a Eric Williams favorite movie after all. Among the movies that Eric is currently participating in, there is no Box Office below 100 million USD.

After watching the movie, Nad Tarn used his professional experience to integrate the Box Office appeal and schedule issues of Julia, Sally Field and Sherry McLean and others, and quickly estimated the movie Out of Box Office of 3000－50 million USD, although Julia can now accumulate a strong Box Office appeal in the world with 《Pretty Woman》, Nad Tarn did n’t have much expectation for this movie overseas Box Office, this movie United States indigenous Too strong, global Box Office can get 30 million is a small miracle.

If it is really as you expected, this film excludes the cost of production and distribution, and at most only has a profit of about 10 million USD, which is completely worthless compared to the profits of other films of Eric.

Nad Tarn believes that Eric will not go to great lengths just for the profit of 10 million USD in this area. But no matter how Nader Tarn turned around and probed Eric, the young man in front of him would give a plausible answer to everything, a look of your own judgment.

In fact, the reason why Eric does not disclose his judgment is mainly due to prudence. Although he is very optimistic about this movie, but how much Box Office he can get, Eric cannot be 100% sure. He estimated that North America Box Office was around 100 million USD. After all, the previous life movie also got Box Office of more than 80 million USD, and that was before Julia shoots 《Pretty Woman》. Now, how can a girl pull the Box Office gain of 20 million USD.

But this estimate cannot be clearly stated. Once it is said, if Box Office cannot meet expectations in the future like previous life, then Eric is equivalent to smashing its own reputation. Not to mention, there is nothing. Even if the movie is not as big as previous life in the future, it will not have much trouble with Eric. After all, Firefly is just an investor, and Eric has nothing to do except for Julia.

Amy · Pascal separated from Eric can be said to be one of the seven people who liked this movie the most. Amy · Pascal is a typical feminist, so she really likes female-themed movies, previous life she Supported a series of female movies, the most famous is the 《Charlie's Angels》 series. Coupled with the sensibility in the woman's character, she was completely attracted by the grief and joy of several women in the movie. There was even an urge to take a vacation immediately and live a peaceful and trivial life in the southern town.

But Amy · Pascal also knows that he and Fox's representative Carter · Hunt are destined to just walk through the scene today, Fox already has the distribution rights of two Eric movies at the end of the year, considering marketing resources, Firefly will definitely not Give Fox movie again, and Columbia is about to sign the final contract with Japanese. It is difficult to predict the business strategy of Japanese in the future. In order to avoid risks, Firefly will certainly not let Columbia agent release.

Of the seven major Film Studio representatives, the representative of Warner is the most calm, because Warner ’s performance this year is very good. Although Warner will not be too much and not profitable, it will only open a share price that it thinks is appropriate. It ’s lucky to win, if you ca n’t get it, you wo n’t feel too sorry.

The situation of Universal Pictures is turbulent, the two helms come and go, and they have no intention to fight for the right to issue, and Metro Goldwyn Mayer has been completely played by the casino tycoon Kirk · Kerklien, Kirk will only want to When selling Metro Goldwyn Mayer cash again, in order to sell a good price, will only pay attention to the operating performance of this giant. Therefore, the Metro Goldwyn Mayer executives are also interested in killing thieves and are unable to return to the sky. Metro Goldwyn Mayer representatives sitting in the front seats chatted with Warner executives. It seems that they are preparing to switch jobs.
