Chapter 203 203]
At this time, the premiere of "American Sniper" is being held at the venue of the Highland Hotel in Los Angeles.
Countless reporters are pointing at Joey with their cameras. They seem to be able to throw countless questions every minute, and Joey has to answer all kinds of harsh questions from them.
The media is a group of people who do all kinds of evil. They like to dig out some hot headlines so that they can sell their newspapers, don't they?
And how to dig out some hot topics?Undoubtedly, it is necessary to ask some harsh questions.
For example, at this moment, a reporter keeps trying to ask Joey, "Director Grant, please stop avoiding your attitude. What is your attitude towards the Iraq War?"
Joey stared at him calmly, "What do you think I'm avoiding? I don't know what I'm avoiding."
The reporter asked again in an extremely sharp tone: "Do you think this is a war of aggression, and do you have the intention of beautifying the war of aggression when you film this film?"
Joey won't answer that question.
From her personal point of view, this is indeed a war of aggression, but she cannot say so.On the other hand, she cannot say that this is not a war of aggression, which would offend the left-wing gang.
So this is a problem that basically all directors of war films face, what standpoint you choose, and what kind of movie you make.
Joy didn't take any position, so she wasn't responsible for answering these questions, "I don't think I have the right to define the nature of a war with one's own eyes."
The reporter didn't let Joey go, "Then why did you make a movie about this war?"
Suddenly, Joey's eyes were sharp and serious, and he said to the man in a warning tone: "This is the last time I will answer your question, because Chris Kyle is a hero, there is no doubt about it, okay, next one."
However, there are only a handful of special journalists, and most of them are fairly knowledgeable, "Director Grant, why did you choose Tom Cruise? Is it because of his charisma or something else?"
Joey drank saliva dryly, "Because he acted well, I also believe he will act well. Is this answer okay?"
"Director Grant, what idea do you want to express through this movie?"
Joey was silent for a while before he said: "I can only say that in the process of filming this movie, I slowly realized one thing, and that is that the best way to stop the war is to stop it from the very beginning. It happens."
Subsequently, this premiere did not last too long, it ended soon, and then "American Sniper" was officially released simultaneously in many countries around the world.
There are actually not many countries that are synchronized globally this time. First, this is just a marginal commercial film with a low cost.Second, it promotes a kind of American individual heroism and patriotism, and only the native American people like this most.
But because of the particularity of the director Joey Grant, many countries in Europe and the United States with similar ideologies also introduced this film simultaneously.
It seems that since the movie was released, it has the characteristics of "Heaven's Proud Son", because everyone is optimistic about it, not because of itself, but because it has an awesome "mother".
However, after the release of "American Sniper", the excellent quality of the film made fans have to admit, "Joy's production must be a boutique."
In the first week of its large-scale release, "American Sniper" directly parachuted to the weekly champion of the box office list.
Over a four-day holiday weekend that included a holiday, American Sniper grossed a record-breaking $4 million domestically.
It should have been surprising that a main theme film achieved such a result, but seeing the director's name, it doesn't seem so difficult to understand.
This war film, which cost 5800 million to shoot, won a domestic box office of 1.053 million US dollars in the first week, which has to make people feel the so-called "Joey effect".
In the next two weeks, in the fierce competition of various blockbuster films in the summer vacation, "American Sniper" firmly occupied the top position at the box office.
But with the box office of this movie soaring all the way, you have to feel that American heroism will always have huge box office potential. This realistic version of "Captain America" highlights the unabated patriotism of the American people and their love for Joey. Grant directing this type of subject matter for sure.
Her unexpected calm shots and the short shots that seemed to be put together in all directions that seemed to be out of order made this main theme movie taste like "cutting flesh with a blunt knife", which severely damaged the hearts of the audience.
And the most unbelievable thing is that this movie made by her is too "manly".
["American Sniper" writes the box office myth of war movies]
【Best selling war movie in history】
【Leading the box office in North America for 3 consecutive weeks】
At the same time, as the box office continues to soar, the controversy of this movie is also growing. It can be said that this is the most controversial one of all Joey's movies, not because of Joey's own strength , but its ideology.
"Joy Grant is very courageous this time, choosing such a subject that must be controversial, but this cannot change the original sin of Joey Grant's glorification of war."
"Hallelujah, Joey Grant has finally fallen to the point of starting to shoot this kind of 'masturbation film' of the American people."
"It's really unbelievable why Joey Grant wanted an Iraq War movie, it feels like the myth has been busted."
Because the controversy is too loud, although Joey already knew that this would be the result from the beginning, once this kind of subject matter is touched, controversy can never be avoided.
In the end, under Tom's suggestion, Joey published a long post on his Facebook, clearly expressing his anti-war stance, otherwise some media with ulterior motives might ignite the fire.
In one afternoon, Joey conceived hundreds of words and finally published them on his Facebook.
“【Not to beautify or to deify】”
"Even if it's not "American Sniper", I believe that one day there will be a movie telling everyone what kind of suffering these veterans have experienced, instead of treating this as a political lesson about war.
We should pay more attention to the real problems behind this group of people. When they return home, they need more care and tolerance.When discussing the film with Chris Kyle, it was never meant to be a political tool of any kind.
Kyle also stated in an interview, "I was hired by the country to go to the battlefield in Iraq. It is my job to protect the Navy and SEALs, and that's all." '
I absolutely disagree with the deification of Chris Kyle, an American hero who himself suffered from PTSD.This movie is a discussion of the psychological plight of veterans. I have repeatedly studied the text and video materials related to him. All the plots are based on the truth.
I can't force the audience to see or think, and some people even make use of it.I think, sooner or later they will figure it out. "
Then, Joey added a photo of Chris Kyle, "For me, he is a hero. His heroism is not simply reflected in the number of enemies he sniped, but how he faced those wars. The trauma it brings, whether it's for him or his family, it's a difficult hurdle."
Under this reasonable explanation, it seems that some audiences who hold objections have gradually begun to calm down and truly appreciate the artistry of this film.
But fans who really pay attention to movies have long been fascinated by Joey's movies.
Joey achieves amazing psychological effects with his unique documentary-style shooting techniques. There is no need to repeat the eye-opening strength and talent. What the audience is more interested in is that Tom Cruise shows in this movie Amazing acting.
What's the matter with him?Did Joey suddenly open the sky cap?
Joey has promoted one after another young actors and actresses who have changed from 38-tier to 1-tier. Will it be their turn to save the old handsome men and old beauties who have encountered a "mid-life crisis"?For example, Meg Ryan, who was saved before?
However, Tom Cruise does not seem to need rescue?
oh!No, maybe he needs to be rescued, how many years has he not won an acting award again?
So after this time, are those old handsome guys in Hollywood who are generally experiencing a mid-life crisis going to be tempted collectively?
Imagining the scene where Joey Grant is besieged by Brad Pitt, George Clooney, Tom Hanks, Johnny Depp, Jim Carrey, Mel Gibson, etc., isn't it very touching?
On the other side of the box office, "American Sniper" continued to make a "vicious" sprint at the box office while being controversial, showing a majestic and terrifying momentum.
Even due to the shocking explosion of "Sniper", the total box office of the top 12 American movie theaters for a whole week has also risen 68.4%, with a total revenue of 10.85 billion US dollars.
God, this is too crazy!
This fire seems to make the "sniper" more prosperous!
