    Capra himself is a famous film master in the history of Hollywood, and in 40 years, he was one of the four leading directors. It is really rare for him to write such praise.  However, the best is yet to come.  ¡°Then came Chaplin.  This citizen of the British Empire still emphasized that he criticized Victor morally, saying that the movie Victor was suspected of applauding the killer's comeback, but his old tunes were not very lethal.  Hitchcock¡¯s article surprised Victor.  "As a young director, it is not easy for Fred Zinerman to be able to make a movie with such a tight rhythm and outstanding tension. Hollywood has never lacked good stories, but what it lacks is the ability to tell stories. Movies are largely  It is telling a story, and this is especially true in Hollywood. Zinerman's lens and structure have a natural German mysticism style and French cold humor, coupled with the unique western culture of the United States, which makes the whole movie outstanding.  " "No Country for Old Men" showed me a master storyteller, which was refreshing to me. If there were more directors like this in Hollywood, I think I wouldn't be so lonely. " It's worth pondering.  What's strange is that although Hitchcock liked "No Country for Old Men" very much, he praised Zinerman from beginning to end, and as for Victor, he didn't even mention it.  This made Zinerman look at Victor, feeling embarrassed.  "It's really not easy to get a thumbs up from our master of suspense." Victor didn't think so.  Another director, William Wyler, made a comprehensive analysis from the perspective of image style: "Starting from "This Killer Isn't Cold", Victor Ferro has brought us a different perspective. In "No Country for Old Men". Regardless.  Whether it is the structure of the story, the creation of the characters, or the editing, especially the final image style, it is more and more surprising when you look at his movies of the same period.  This feeling: Our film is so false, so feeble. " "The power of the image lies in its reality and emotion. Although the film is shot, it must make the audience feel involved.  , Hollywood has established a series of storytelling models for so many years, including shooting techniques. Is it time to reconsider and improve the times? As a recorder of the times, movies have all techniques and styles.  All must be ahead of the times. The old model can no longer attract audiences, and it will restrict the development of film art! "No Country for Old Men" obviously provides us with a window. "William Wheeler's comments clearly have a higher intention.  The angle is deeper and amazing.  Next, celebrities such as Teacher DeMille, Lubitsch, and Jenny Grant, as well as big stars such as Craig Gable, Cary Grant, Vivien Leigh, and many film critics published articles or interviews about "No Country for Old Men"  the opinion of.  Generally speaking, compared to the one-sided criticism of "The Killer", "No Country for Old Men" has received a lot of praise from public opinion.  ??Also applauded.  Also called, use this sentence to describe this movie.  Couldn't be more appropriate.  Victor dropped the newspaper and looked up at Leo: "Leo, I want to give you something." "What is it?" Leo became nervous.  "You take someone to Sam Warner's place, bring the contract, and ask the Los Angeles City Government's notary to check their box office," Victor said.  "Do you suspect this guy is hiding the box office report?" Leo suddenly understood.  "Sam Warner can do this kind of thing. We don't want to take advantage of others, but we can't suffer a loss. By the way, Nicholas, you should also keep an eye on this matter. After the final box office statistics are completed, share the money with them. According to our  The contract signed before will take over their cinema! Have you chosen the cinema?" Victor said to Nicholas.  Nicholas seemed to have wanted to mention something for a long time, and he laid out a map in front of Victor: "Yesterday I marked all the first-class movie theaters owned by Warner Bros. Pictures. Now, we have two choices. First.  , all the money earned this time is to buy their first-class theaters in California, and the second is to spread it out and buy it across the country. " Victor looked at the dense red dots on it: "Is there any difference between the two methods?  "Of course there is a difference." Nicholas smiled: "We only have one cinema at hand. If we buy them all in California, then California will form our collective effect, and California is close to Hollywood, but we have influence in other places.  There is no impact. If you buy it across the country and it blooms everywhere, it is good, but if it is dispersed, the impact will be smaller, and it will be difficult to manage.Convenient.  " Everyone looked up at Victor. Victor asked everyone to think about it. As a result, a group of people argued. Some suggested buying them all in California, and some suggested opening up the country. " In the end, Victor made the decision: "Neither buy them all in California, but  Nor are they scattered across the country.  Half of it will be in California, and the other half will be in big cities like New York, Washington, and so on.  Even if we become a hit at the box office this time, we won't be able to buy many theaters. We have to eat one bite at a time, walk step by step, and make the most of our limited resources.  The base area of ??California must be well controlled, but big cities must also be invaded. The establishment of movie theaters in these places is of course to show our movies and expand our influence, but on the other hand, don¡¯t forget, these movie theaters  It's like our tentacles extending across the country. From here, we can get intelligence, news, and even recruit people.  When making a movie, you can¡¯t do it behind closed doors.  understand?  "Everyone was convinced by Victor's rational statement. "Leo, if these cinemas are handed over to you to manage, are you sure about it?  "Victor's sudden words. Leo was looking at the map in a daze, and nodded subconsciously: "Okayah!  ?  What?  Leave it to me to manage?  "    "Yes.  Victor chuckled: "We are growing bigger little by little, and a series of processes such as filming, distribution, and screening must be managed scientifically."  Therefore, I plan to establish Legend Cinemas Company and fully manage all its cinemas in the future. This position belongs to you.  " "This is a big mistake.  "Gregory Pike and others all looked at Leo. "That's okay, I'll do it!  "Leo and Victor are not polite at all. Communication is his strong point, and despite his careless appearance, this guy is very attentive. I will leave the future theater management to Leo, so Victor can rest assured. "Congratulations then, Manager Leo.  .  "Victor patted Leo. Everyone laughed. The Legend Theater Company was established in this way.
