With 288 million US dollars, "The World of Truman" has reached such a height in just nine weeks of release, creating a new record in film history, carrying a powerful momentum beyond "The Little Imperials", replacing "The Little Imperials" in one fell swoop and becoming the tenth place in the box office in film history.

People have predicted that the "Trumen's World" will achieve a box office victory, people have predicted that the "Trumen's World" will eventually reach more than 200 million yuan, people have predicted that the "Trumen's World" may become one of the best box office comedy movies in film history, and people have predicted that the "Trumen's World" may once again become a witness to the "Hugo Myth"... But people have never predicted that the "Trumen's World" can reach such a height.

Before the release of "The World of Truman", due to the topics caused by "The Sixth Sense of the Supernatural" and "Star Wars", many people thought that Hugo had lost his mind, first it was comedy movies and then horror movies. The uncertainty brought by works of different themes was difficult for any actor to overcome, which also reduced the box office expectations of "The World of Truman".

But now, the "Trumen's world" is getting further and further in terms of historical heights.

After breaking the box office history of "The Little Imperial", the pace of "Trumen's World" has not stopped and has still made great strides towards the threshold of 300 million. Currently, in the entire history of the film, only eight works have a box office of more than 300 million, including one of Hugo's works: "Independence Day".

Currently, among these eight works, Harrison Ford has two exclusives: "Star Wars 1" and "Star Wars 3". The other "Star Wars 2" ranks ninth in film history with a box office data of 290 million. Coupled with the outstanding performance of the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" series, all of this has become the cornerstone of Harrison's first box office superstar in film history.

However, Harrison's two series of works are obviously directorial skills, and the series culture is higher than that of actors. This is also the reason why Tom Cruise, Hugo Lancaster and Tom Hanks soon replaced Harrison's box office superstar status after the emergence of him. Compared to Harrison, their box office appeal is more diverse and personal, and their attractiveness to the audience is higher than Harrison.

Now, Hugo also has the second work that has ranked among the top ten in the box office in film history, and it is two completely different works. "Trueman's World" is about to become his second work with a box office of 300 million yuan. In this regard, Hugo is about to compete with Harrison and truly implement his title of "box office superstar". After "Independence Day", a "Los Angeles City Secret" and a "Trueman's World" have created a new peak in Hugo's career in an alternative way.

In the fourth week of August, before the summer season was about to end, "Trumen's World" brought its cumulative box office of over $300 million with a weekend box office of $8 million and reached $305 million. While becoming the ninth work in film history, it also ranked ninth in the box office of movies.

Just as no one could have expected that the "speed of life and death" would have a box office of 239 million US dollars, no one could have expected that the "Los Angeles Secret" would have a box office of 260 million US dollars, and no one could have expected that the "Trumen's World" would have a box office of 300 million US dollars.

Take a closer look at the eight works with a box office of 300 million, "Titanic", "Independence Day", "Star Wars", "Alien e.t", "Jurassic Park", "Forrest Gump", "The Lion King", and "Star Wars 3". Among these eight works, only one "Forrest Gump" is a plot movie, and one "The Lion King" is an animation. In addition, the eight movies are all in the top five commercial blockbusters with visual effects occupying the main body.

From this perspective, we can see the main pattern of the North American film market.

But under such circumstances, "Trumen's World" as a comedy movie, a movie that invested only 60 million US dollars, has entered such a ranks, which is an incomparable height even "Forrest Gump".

This 300 million yuan is not just as difficult as it is more difficult. It can be said that it has broken the rules and regulations that have been accumulated in the entire market for 30 years and rewrites the miracle of "Trumen's World". This is a box office myth comparable to the "Independence Day" of 535 million US dollars, but it happened in the "Trumen's World". Such a myth is enough to be recorded in history and write a history of the ugly duckling transforming into a swan! Perhaps it will be difficult to see such a myth after the box office of the movie in the future has entered the 300 million era.

The 300 million box office of "Trumen's World" made the old scholars in the American Academy of Film Arts and Sciences cheer, or to be more precise, it made the conservatives who have always insisted on the essence of film in Hollywood celebrate each other. Although the "Titanic" won a great victory over the Oscar not long ago, everyone knows that this is an inevitable historical process. However, in fact, the commercial blockbusters led by visual effects are more of Wall Street's victory. For the Hollywood film industry itself, filmmakers always hope that they can have more room to play, which is the embodiment of their professional value.

"Trumen's World" not only carries the professional qualities of film critics, but also carries the final dreams of professionals. Many screenwriters, photographers and directors praise this work because this work is their value. If the entire film market is full of commercial blockbusters, their talents will not be able to be realized. When the box office of the movie exceeds 300 million, not only Paramount Pictures, but many industry insiders are overjoyed, and the atmosphere in the whole Hollywood is extremely active.

At the turn of the century, it seemed that all aspects of the entire society were undergoing earth-shaking changes, and the changes in the film field were even more turbulent. The professionals in it felt deeply that uneasy enthusiasm was mixed in their blood. Faced with the history created by the "Trumen's world", they couldn't help but become excited.

When "Independence Day" created a box office miracle the previous year, everyone was amazed; when "Titanic" wrote the box office myth last year, everyone was amazed; when "Trumen's World" broke the box office record, everyone was carnival.

Only real people in the circle can understand the nuances of this, and this little difference has caused the "Trueman's World" to change quietly in the history of film, and Peter Will and Hugo Lancaster, who created such a miracle, have become the focus of attention, especially Hugo.

Although Hugo is just an actor, if you carefully observe the development trajectory of the film since 1992, Hugo can almost be said to rely on his own efforts to promote every change in the historical process. "Independence Day" made the film companies cheer, "Los Angeles Secret" and "Excellent Beauty" made professional filmmakers cheer, "Titanic" made the film industry earth-shaking, and "Trumen's world" made the balance of power return to balance.

Currently, Hugo is at the forefront of Hollywood's power list. Now, with the achievements made by "Trumen's World", industry insiders' evaluation of Hugo has reached a higher level, especially in their inner strength and status, which have developed essential changes. Hugo has quietly surpassed George Lucas, Steven Spielberg and others, becoming the number one person with strong influence in Hollywood today. His influence on the entire industry is unpredictable. Especially considering that Hugo has joined DreamWorks, the future development of the film industry is full of more suspense and unknowns.

What's even more terrifying is that with the cheering of Hollywood, this is still not the end of the "Trumen's World". After crossing the 300 million threshold, the pace of the movie's release is still moving forward in an orderly manner. Paramount Pictures spared no effort to promote the movie, hoping that the historical height of this movie can be further improved.

In the end, "The World of Truman" was released all the way to the end of October, and the entire release line lasted for twenty weeks. For a comedy movie, such results were already the limit. The cumulative box office of "The World of Truman" came to 328 million US dollars. Unfortunately, it was only a short distance from the 329 million record of "Forrest Gump", but it still failed to break the shackles.

The result of 328 million US dollars has made "Truemon's World" only catch up with "Star Wars 3" in the box office record of film history, ranking eighth in film history. Although it has not been able to go one step further, the final achievements of "Truemon's World" have re-written history and have gained an unnegligible place in the entire river of history.

Especially thanks to the profound connotation of the movie, among the only nine works in film history that have box office of 300 million, "Trump World" has stood on the same level as "Forrest Gump", which gave birth to a very important proposition: Can "Trump World" win the Oscar for Best Picture?

At this time, it was still half a year before the Oscars, so it was too early to discuss this topic, but the pace of "Trumen's World" creating a box office miracle has not stopped.

With an investment of 60 million US dollars, the "Trumen's World" once again replicated the box office miracle of "life and death" and the "Los Angeles City Secret" level, which made Paramount Pictures very happy. But this is just a box office result in North America, and the performance of "Trumen's World" on a global scale is still remarkable.

Someone once said that Hugo's appeal across the world even surpasses North America, because in various parts of Europe, Hugo's grasp of art films has been unanimously praised. Whether it is works such as "before sunrise", "Seven Deadly Sins", or works such as "Death Prison Walking", and "Los Angeles City Secret", they have won the recognition of European picky film critics. Hugo is currently very popular at the Cannes Film Festival and the Berlin Film Festival, which is one of the proofs.
