Christmas, the last week of 1986.

In the twinkling of an eye, it was 1987.

At the beginning of the new year, the video and sound editing of "Lola Run" all ended smoothly. Because of the excellent lens quality, Simon finished the color matching of the sample in only one week.

Then, "Lola Run" began the final printing process.

On the other hand, "Butterfly Effect" was finished in mid December and entered the post production stage.

Simon learned from David giller and Brian De Palma that fox has not yet finalized the schedule of the butterfly effect, which needs to be decided according to the quality of the film.

However, the two most likely schedules are either summer or Easter.

In this era, the popularity of Easter season in North America is not as high as later. The most important schedule in Hollywood is still summer vacation and the end of the year.

The box office success of "Butterfly Effect" is very important for Simon's follow-up development in Hollywood. He naturally hopes that the film can be set in the popular summer season. However, it is obviously not something he can decide.

Now, the only thing Simon can control is Lola Run.

On January 13, Simon finally got the final copy of Lola Run.

January 14.

Fox, it's afternoon.

In a screening hall in the studio, David giller and Brian De Palma walked in together and found that a large group of people had gathered in the screening hall, who were basically members of the crew of "Lola Run".

Noting the arrival of the two, Simon, who was chatting with everyone, quickly got up to greet him, and others nodded.

As he was also busy with the later stage of the butterfly effect, Simon didn't meet many times these days. After saying hello, he sat down and chatted for a while. Then David giller said, "Simon, can we start?"

"I'm sorry, David. I have to wait," Simon said, shaking his head. "Mr. Sanders has promised to come. He hasn't arrived yet."

David giller heard the words and nodded understandably.

Simon invited Peter Sanders, vice president of fox pictures, apparently in connection with the release of "Lola Run.". David giller also specifically pointed out the details of Simon's distribution a few days ago.

Simon raised his wrist and looked at his watch. After the appointed time, he just got up and planned to go outside the screening hall.

After waiting for nearly ten minutes, Simon hesitated to go to the administration building in person, and Peter Sanders turned out of the corridor. Seeing Simon waiting outside the screening hall, Peter Sanders, with an apologetic look on his face, reached over and said, "I'm so sorry, Simon. I just finished a meeting."

"It doesn't matter," Simon said, shaking hands with a smile. "Well, Peter, let's go in."

"Of course, I'm looking forward to your movie."

When they entered the screening hall, Peter Sanders warmly welcomed the crowd and looked around. There were six rows of seats in the screening hall, separated from each other. In the first row, there are David giller and Brian De Palma on the left and Janet and Catherine on the right, with one seat left on each side.

After a moment's hesitation, Peter Sanders sat down next to David giller.

Simon stood next to Peter Sanders, noticing the details of each other's hesitation and just smiling.

Although tactful, but from this point of view, Peter Sanders is obviously not too atmospheric person.

As fox's top executive in charge of the butterfly effect project, he obviously didn't want to sit with David giller and Brian De Palma during the production process. However, Peter Sanders did not dare to show this contradiction publicly.

When Peter Sanders is seated, Simon orders the studio staff a few words before sitting next to Janet.

The lights in the projection hall soon dimmed.

Although he had seen the sample film in advance, he was busy for half a year and finally had to accept the audience's test. Simon was still a little nervous and could not help clenching his fist.

A cool little hand reached out in the dark and patted Simon on the back of his fist.

Simon turned, noticed Janet's bright eyes, gave her a smile, and held the cool little hand in his big hand.

Because it's the first audition of "Lola Run", Catherine, who is going to Arizona to shoot "blood corpse night", also made time to come here today.

At this time, sitting on the other side of Janet, Katherine noticed that Simon held Janet's little hand in his hand, and her eyes flashed a little lonely. After the new year, just returning to Los Angeles, Katherine clearly felt the further relationship between Simon and Janet.

Before Catherine could ask, Janet took the initiative to tell her about Christmas Eve.

I don't know how to block it at all.Until Catherine couldn't bear to cover Janet's mouth, the girl stopped Barra.

Trying to make herself forget all kinds of Janet's remarks as much as possible, but glancing at Simon's side face on the other side, Katherine still remembers Janet's "tragic experience" of shaking five white tender fingers to describe her first time in her life that she had been tossed all night.

Her cheeks began to heat unconsciously, and Catherine quickly focused on the big screen in front of her.

Although with her understanding of the personalities of the two people around her, she felt that it might be Jennie's taste.

However.

Where do women need to reason.

Yeah.

Who said that?

With that in mind, a word that Janet used to criticize someone flashed into Katherine's mind.

There is a lot of resentment in the bottom of my heart.

Animals!

A small hand unconsciously touched to come over, want to pull oneself.

Open.

It's greedy. It's not enough to hold the other side.

Going to the movies.

On the big bright screen, wait for a moment. With the slight sound of the projector running, the movie begins to play.

The first is a line of subtitles.

In the future, the term "Butterfly Effect" will appear at the beginning of "Butterfly Effect", and Simon will not add such a beginning to "Lola Run".

However, Simon still made adjustments to the opening subtitles of the original edition, only retaining a passage by the British poet T. S. Eliot.

When the subtitles fall, the click of the second hand starts to ring. With the rotation of the silver pendulum, several lines of subtitles appear in turn.

Production company: Denise pictures.

Executive producers: Brian De Palmer, David giller, Robert Redford.

Director: Simon westero.

Since they are willing to name Brian, Simon naturally does not pretend to be modest and put the names of the three big men in the most prominent place at the beginning.

As the pendulum stops and the camera moves toward Simon's custom-made metal gear clock, the fast-paced electronic music that will run through the whole movie also unfolds. Quite infectious music, unconsciously guide the mood of all people in the screening hall.

Then there are the walking corpses and the narration centered on the philosophical proposition of "who am I, where am I and what am I going to do".

However, although there is such a philosophical narration, the film does not leave the audience any time to think.

The dynamic electronic music seems to be urging everyone to run all the way.

So.

In the head of the cartoon, Laura starts to run.

Until the beginning of the story.

Inertia in the general rapid pull into the lens, eye-catching red telephone ring.

Little gangster Manny received the transaction task entrusted by the boss, and everything went well. When he returned, his girlfriend Laura didn't come to pick him up on time, so he had to find a way to go back to the city, and then he lost the money.

100000 dollars.

Enough for the boss to burn him to ashes and throw him into the sea.

Panic, Manny tearfully on the phone to Lola complaints.

In order to save her boyfriend's life, Lola had to raise $100000 in a short time and send it to a phone booth in downtown Santa Monica.

She only has 20 minutes.

But without hesitation, rushed out of the house without hesitation.

All the way.

When I came to my father's office as a bank manager, I didn't get any help. Instead, I was punctured.

Failed to get the money, still go to the end.

My boyfriend has entered the supermarket with a gun.

Well, you insist on being Clyde, and I'll be your Bonnie.

The robbery was a success.

Escape from failure.

Shot and killed by a stupid rookie cop.

I'm not reconciled.

Let's start over.

The drop of the red phone is the starting point again.

This time, I'm Bonnie. You don't have to be Clyde.

It seems to have worked.

Until the last moment.

God didn't seem to like people who got something for nothing, so he took him away.

Go on and do it again.

In the corridor, the ruffian neighbors and vicious dogs who try to get in the way are skipped, which may save a second or waste a second.

Who knows.

Anyway, I missed my father, but I met the casino.

Then.

Everything seems to be going well.

He made $100000 and made it to his destination.

The beggar, who accidentally picked up the $100000, got the thief's bike and rushed to his boyfriend ahead of time to "return" the money.Perfect ending.
