In the Douban movie top 250 list, it ranked 121st, and was scored 8.9 by 500,000 people, which was better than 97% of the feature films, and won the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film.
This film is "Entering the Mortician" directed by Yojiro Takita, one of the most classic Japanese films, a work from 2008, which was immediately enshrined as soon as it was released that year.
On October 29, the 4k restored version of "Entering the Mortician" was introduced and released in Chinese mainland, although it was a film with a good reputation, but once it was released, the box office was not hot, and the box office revenue on the first day was about 4.25 million yuan.
The scheduling of "Entering the Mortician" is about 6.9%, and the "Wuhai" released in the same period accounts for about 10%, but the box office revenue is only 2.36 million yuan, and the attendance rate of "Entering the Mortician" is significantly higher than that of "Wuhai".
Ranked 4th on the daily box office list, the first place in line for "Entering the Mortician" were "007: No Time to Die", "Chosin Lake" and "Dune".
The daily box office revenue of "The Mortician" is similar to that of "Dune", and the daily box office revenue of "Dune" is about 6.45 million yuan, but unfortunately, this deep-rooted, calm and atmospheric science fiction blockbuster can not catch fire in the Chinese mainland.
Based on the novel "The Diary of a Coffin Man" by Japanese writer Shinmon Aoki, the plot revolves around the life of the mortician, telling a touching story that heals people's hearts and warms people's hearts.
The most profound theme of this classic is the reflection on life, allowing the audience to follow the mortician to see death and understand the meaning of life.
I remember watching the movie "Entering the Mortician" in 2012, when I was particularly fascinated by Ryoko's face, I was full of emotions after watching it, and I was shocked by the strength and wind of the movie.
Among the newly released films in the same period, "The Mortician" ranked second in box office revenue, only losing to "007: No Time to Die", if it were not for the encounter with the two strong opponents of "007: No Time to Die" and "Chosin Lake", the proportion of "Entering the Mortician Division" would definitely be higher, and the box office would be even hotter.
As far as the current box office trend is concerned, "The Mortician" is expected to exceed the box office of 30 million yuan, as an old movie, such box office results are not bad, but this classic is worth a higher box office.
