Looking back to 1994 not long ago, people are still unforgettable. The success of "Pulp Fiction" and "Life and Death" made Hugo truly reach the top. Since March, the Oscars recognized Hugo's excellence in "Schindler's List". The performance began and in May the Cannes Film Festival commended Hugo for his performance in "Pulp Fiction". Hugo carried the power of "Mr. 400 Million" and ended a glorious year. From box office to word of mouth to awards, it swept indiscriminately. .

Of course, no one will forget the miracle of glory to death led by Hugo. The momentum of the first album "Almost Fame" is still unabated, and the second album "Bath the Morning Light" has reached a whole new level. The new metal rock has truly written history, and the three gramophone trophies awarded to the death by the Grammys held in February 1995 have even become the embellishment of the band’s live performances, allowing people to truly see that it belongs only to that glory. The rock spirit of the seventies.

In 1994, this was an indelible year in the long river of history. It was also the year when Hugo successfully ranked among the top ranks. Compared with such a glorious year, surpassing is not an easy task. In fact, Hugo The work in 1995 was indeed not as dazzling as last year. The band did not release a new album and did not conduct a tour; although there were three movies, the results were not comparable to last year, both in box office and historical status.

But anyone who has really experienced 1995 will know that this is the year when Hugo truly became a superstar.

In the long 1995, Hugo released a total of three works, "Before Sunrise", "Seven Deadly Sins" and "Death Row". These three works cannot reach the height of the two works in 1994 from all angles. , But they all have an irreplaceable status.

Looking at the year-end North American box office charts in 1995, "Toy Story" won the year-end championship with a box office of 198 million U.S. dollars. This film history's first computerized three-dimensional animation also made history, not only in two-dimensional animation. The era allowed the audience to recognize the three-dimensional animation, and let people see the Pixar animation studio for the first time, and since then opened the prelude to the studio's twenty-year dominance.

"Seven Deadly Sins" unfortunately ranked second with 195 million U.S. dollars, but even so, this achievement still shocked everyone, not only because of the ultra-low investment of this work, but also because of the theme of this work. Created a peak in the history of thriller and suspense movies that cannot be surpassed.

Although such a feat is not as significant as the glory of "Pulp Fiction" as an independent film in the long river of history, it also has an unparalleled influence on the entire industry-which is enough to make a genre film get the attention of major film companies. This can give birth to more masterpieces in a genre.

Although Hugo is only a supporting role in "The Seven Deadly Sins", he has shown that he is not inferior to Anthony Hopkins in "The Silent Lambs" and supported the whole movie, even the old The play bone Morgan Freeman is slightly bleak. And most of the credit for such brilliant box office data of the "Seven Deadly Sins" is recorded on Hugo's head. This is also after the box office of five consecutive works broke 100 million yuan in the past, Hugo once again strongly proved his box office appeal.

Especially after experiencing the box office slump at the beginning of the year, the final box office results of the "Seven Deadly Sins" are absolutely sturdy, so that all doubts are closed, so that people can truly appreciate the meaning of Hugo to North American audiences.

Of course, everyone knows that the real success of this movie is not the movie box office, but the duel between Brad and Hugo, which is recorded in the annals of history, especially witnessing Hugo's terrifying acting skills.

"Batman forever" was originally a strong contender for the year-end box office championship, but unfortunately, 184 million U.S. dollars ranked third. Although the results are still very good, they have also been praised. Warner Bros. has already started. I am preparing for the sequel, but losing to "Toy Story" and "Seven Deadly Sins" is not glorious, especially losing to the latter, really frustrated.

In addition to the top three, there are seven works with a box office of over 100 million this year. Not only did they miss 200 million at the box office, but the number of works at the box office of 100 million was significantly less than last year. , This year has fallen into a low ebb.

After that, "Apollo 13", "Pocahontas (, "Detective Plane 2", "Golden Eye", "Game of the Brave", "Ghost Horse Elf", "Die Hard 3" "Respectively occupied the remaining positions in the top ten. However, among these, the box office of the four works after the "Golden Eye" has just passed 100 million, and the gap between them is calculated in units of 100,000. Such results are really unsatisfactory.

In the top ten list at the end of the year, in addition to Hugo, who has achieved great results, Tom Hanks and Kim Carey once again occupy people's attention.

From a purely box office perspective, Tom continued his outstanding performance in "Forrest Gump" last year, occupying the top spot in the North American year-end box office rankings for the second year in a row. He starred in "Toy Story" as a voice actor. His important role cannot be ignored in his brilliant achievements; not to mention that the "Apollo 13" starring him was both popular and popular, and ranked fourth on the year-end list.

As a typical representative of accumulation and accumulation, Tom became the second actor in film history to win the Oscar, and his career reached its peak. With many consecutive works with outstanding reputation and excellent box office, coupled with a perfect family image and a gentle and humble personal image, Tom also Became a representative of the typical American.

In terms of momentum alone, Tom cannot be compared with Hugo, but in terms of prestige, Tom has an advantage over Hugo, who is less than 30 years old this year. Tom has a unique appeal in all age groups. At this point, you can already see Tom's style of the first Hollywood person and the chairman of the actors' union in Tom.

Needless to say, Kim Carey’s "Detective Aircraft Head" scored $108 million in the box office, and his supporting role in "Batman Forever" ranked third in the year-end list. It is also a more brilliant and outstanding report card than last year.

From the perspective of the development curve alone, King’s progress this year is definitely greater than that of Hugo. People will simply judge from box office data. 1994 was the peak of Hugo and 1995 was the peak of Tom and King.

But is this really the case? Not so.

Although Hugo has not been able to continue the brilliance of the top ten in the past two years with two seats each, "Death Row" only ranked 15th on the list with a score of 83 million US dollars, and "before sunrise "At the box office of 32 million U.S. dollars, it will fall to 55th.

However, the "Seven Deadly Sins" proved Hugo's strong box office appeal, and "Death Row" allowed people to truly appreciate the charm of Hugo as an actor. He was able to perform a role so moving through his own power, even Let the audience feel the same, this skill is enough to make countless people yearn and admire. What's more commendable is that the role of Matthew in the "Death Row" made people start to have self-doubt, shaken the outlook on life, values ​​and the world. Really consider the death penalty. This is where Hugo shines most.

"Before Sunrise", as Hugo’s first screenwriter, has not only been recognized by the Berlin Film Festival’s Silver Bear Award for Best Director, but also allowed people to see another talent of Hugo. It was also at the arrival of major award ceremonies. Let Hugo once again become a popular candidate.

Not to mention that from the "Seven Deadly Sins" to the "Death Row", Hugo's promotion of the entire American society is also after "Pulp Fiction" has influenced American culture, Hugo has once again become an incredible history and culture. A part of life has left its own mark in this era. This is the real greatness-it is separated from the entertainment industry itself and has an immeasurable impact on the entire society.

Although Hugo’s three works in 1995 seem to be less influential than last year’s two works, everyone knows that these three works give a deep impression of Hugo’s acting skills, box office, screenwriting, etc. The ability and talent in this area made the entire society feel the ubiquitous influence of Hugo. This is a height that was unmatched last year.

At this moment, Hugo has surpassed the limitations of Hollywood, stood at the top of the entire society, and even has the ability to have an impact on the upcoming presidential election. This is the year when Hugo truly became a top superstar this year.

It can be said that 1995 is a year of witnessing mythology. People have seen the ups and downs of Hugo from the so-called trough of "before sunrise" to the so-called peak of the "seven deadly sins". "Walking" acting skills grow People have participated in the discussion of hot topics such as social responsibility, social indifference and cruelty in the news media caused by Hugo. The strong influence of production companies and news media.

This is also a real sublimation from 1994 to 1995.

Of course, no one will forget that at the end of the year, Hugo once again attracted countless people as the starter of the "20 million club", and it also made Hollywood enter the stage of changing dynasties after the music scene.

It is hard to imagine that Hugo has actually become the initiator and promoter of these two completely different changes. This is the real superstar style.

In addition to Hugo, Tom and King, there are still many topics in the North American year-end box office list. The relaunched "007" series is also one of the highlights of 1995. Of course, no one will forget the fiasco of "Future Water World" with only 88 million yuan and the twelfth place on the list. As for the tragedy that "Cut Throat Island" directly caused investment companies to close down and disappear, countless companies are even more convinced. Quit.

In addition to the North American year-end box office list, the global year-end box office list is another battle. The interaction between the three actors, Hugo, Tom, and King, also makes the film market, which has a slightly weak box office performance this year, alive. Hui!
