"They should ask at least to know why it failed at the box office..."

The more Ronald thought about it, the weirder he became, so he invited daydreamer Michelle Cannold and David Simkins to come over to his home for a meeting to discuss.

Several experienced directors also couldn't figure it out. The direction, acting, and script of this movie are all top-notch, and it is more utilitarian. The erotic scenes in the movie are not as good as last year's "Dangerous Liaisons". What to watch

Much more.

Glenn Gross' figure is not as alluring as when she played a cheating woman with Michael Douglas.

How beautiful is Annette Bening's appearance? The scene of her bathing at home is much more alluring than last year's Warner version.

"What do you think, Dan? And you? Wang Ma? Wang Ma?"

Ronald couldn't find the reason, so he remembered Cinema Score's on-site investigation method, and also called a few ordinary viewers at home to ask them what they thought.

"I'm not very interested in costume dramas to begin with..." Dan was very responsible as a bodyguard when Ronald went out, but his home was very safe, so he wouldn't accompany Ronald to watch a movie that didn't interest him.

Movie.

"Didn't you watch it last year? Why is it still available this year? Did you show it again?" Wang Ma's English is not very good, and she can't understand the elegant lines of this kind of costume drama, so she is even less interested.

"Could this be the reason?" Ronald turned around and asked several generals.

"I guess that's it. Costume dramas, especially costume romance dramas from the Kingdom of Lao, don't have a large audience to begin with. However, the plot of Warner's version of Dangerous Liaisons has been simplified a lot, so it may not be difficult for the audience to understand."

"Well, I watched the same movie last year. Among friends and colleagues, there is no one to talk about..."

Several senior executives reacted and blamed the same story on last year's "Dangerous Liaisons".

"Does this have such a big impact on the box office? Has this kind of thing happened in Hollywood before?" Ronald still had doubts in his heart. No one would watch the subject he had filmed?

He called Gregory Peck and asked the veteran Hollywood actor for information.

"It wasn't like this before. Once a movie became a hit, there would be movies that followed suit. But Hollywood is a mystery. If I knew how to make money by making movies, I could have many more influential roles."

Ronald searched around and found no conclusion, so he could only accept this reason for the time being.

But Orion couldn't accept it. They invested 35 million US dollars in this movie and found Milos Forman. They wanted to recreate the grand occasion of "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest" and "Mozart". As a result, it has not even been released yet.

The dilemma of not being able to find it in any theater...

Orion's vice president in charge of distribution has already flown to London urgently to do urgent public relations for the British and European copy sales. He will use the voluntary withdrawal of "Valmont" as an excuse to persuade the film studios there to continue ordering.

The film's failure caused greater unrest in Hollywood than Ronald imagined.

Such a lineup, such investment, such performances, such meticulous craftsmanship, yet suffered a rare fiasco in the history of Hollywood.

For a time, everyone in the Seventh Group felt insecure and began to take inventory of the projects they were currently filming or had completed. Any movies with similar plots that had been released before would be suspended or re-evaluated.

Ronald's two projects with Orion were particularly affected. "The Silence of the Lambs" had another adaptation of the same series of novels a few years ago, "Red Dragon," which did not do well at the box office.

The filming of "Dances with Wolves" has not yet been completed.
