It was only ten o'clock in the morning, when Chanel Laurent set off for the cinema. After experiencing the whole day of yesterday's fermentation and noise, the work "Buried Alive" truly made a name in Toronto, and even attracted more attention than the "Thief in the City". Therefore, it can be imagined that the number of viewers today will inevitably be even more surging, and even there are many viewers who want to join in the fun.

Today's screening of "Buried Alive" was scheduled to be held at 5 pm. There was only one event, which was open to the public in two venues. Chanel set out in the morning, considering the situation that might require queuing.

But there were two streets away from the cinema, and Chanel could see the bustling crowds surging in his sight, which shocked Chanel, and quickly trotted all the way, and then saw the terrifying long queue.

After chasing the team all the way, the team actually exceeded 400 yards. Not only did the entire square turn around for seven or eight turns, like a dragon hovering in the open space, but the tail was also extended to the street next door. Such a grand occasion was jaw-dropping. There were at least five hundred people, and perhaps even more. The lively scene made the reporters around them extremely excited. The scene of people coming and going completely ignited the craze of the 35th Toronto Film Festival.

Seeing such a scene, Chanel was stunned. She strongly doubted whether she had gone to the wrong place and "buried alive" how could it be possible to attract so many audiences?

Accident, this is definitely an accident, and the Toronto Film Festival did not expect such an accident at all.

To a normal extent, independent movies like "buried alive" that have no big names, no gimmicks, or even no sponsorships behind them are often difficult to attract attention.

Although Toronto is a film festival, it is still different from the three major European film festivals. In Europe, the market for art films is far more mature and wider than that of North America, and independent works are significantly more popular in film festivals. However, in Toronto, this is a film trading market that sells copyrights, and even the only award is the People's Choice Award. In the Internet era, the lack of gimmicks and lack of publicity means the lack of audiences. The era when the wine is not afraid of being deep alleys is gone forever.

Therefore, the Toronto Film Festival arranged the premiere of "buried alive" at 4 pm. Even though only six works at the festival this year are premiering globally and "buried alive" is one of them, they still did not receive special treatment. Therefore, the Toronto Film Festival also followed the tradition of filming schedules, and arranged three screenings in two theaters respectively. This time, the number of scenes is not many, but it is normal.

Generally speaking, the number of screenings of popular films is between eight and twelve, while the number of unpopular films is controlled between three and five. After all, there are 51 films that need to be played in just ten days of the film festival. If it is not for an accident, three scenes are enough for "burying alive".

When the Toronto Film Festival arranged schedules and venues for its works, it did not foresee the unpopularity of the Emmy Awards, the hot spots of "Ophelia", the hot tubing, and even the miracle of the billboard, and did not foresee the "buried alive" emerged in an astonishing manner.

So, an accident happened. The long queue of more than 400 yards easily surpassed "Blue Valentine's Day" and "The Thieves in the City", and deserved to be the most highly-watched film at this year's film festival.

One of the traditions and scenic spots of the Toronto Film Festival is to queue up in the "rush-line". In addition to the premiere, the film festival screenings are generally divided into industry venues and public venues. The industry venues are aimed at exhibitors, producers and media, and the public venues are for ordinary people to sell tickets. These tickets will be sold before the opening of the film festival. The public venues for popular films are often hard to find and sold out early.

However, for the sake of the film festival craze, there are other opportunities to buy tickets.

First of all, at 7 o'clock every morning, a small number of remaining tickets for movies that day will be sold online. You can swipe your tickets online early or go to the cinema to buy tickets directly. This is a good choice, but this type of ticket is very limited and often you can get it out.

The second opportunity is the peak long queue. Before each screening begins, unfilled spaces will be distributed on site, leaving them to the audience queuing in the peak long queue. The peak long queue is very simple and fair, first come first served, and no one knows how many spaces can be left for themselves in the end, and the only way is to queue up early is the only way.

Therefore, this has also become a wonder of the Toronto Film Festival, and "how many meters of audiences are queuing" has also become one of the best measures for the media to describe the popularity of a film.

Of course, this is only limited to popular films. Like "Magician", there are still tickets left and even not full at the last moment before the screening. This situation is common in film festivals, especially in Toronto, where art films are generally weaker than Europe.

The "buried alive" public tickets are not in short supply. Before the film festival, Chanel bought tickets for the premiere almost effortlessly. In fact, there were even a lot of tickets left for the premiere, which was released on site, and the screening room was fully filled in in the end.

Even the tickets for the premiere are like this, let alone the subsequent screenings. The tickets for the three screenings were not sold for 40% of them. There is no way to buy them before "buried alive" and there was no publicity in any form. Rodrigue even completed the post-production at the last moment, which caught up with the registration deadline, resulting in the lack of early promotion of the movie. This movie is a big deal for most viewers.

But who would have thought that first, the screening early in the morning yesterday, all tickets were sold, and even caused a queue of about thirty viewers; then today's peak queue, which exceeded 400 yards, was simply incredible.

Chanel quickly asked the staff at the front of the team who was responsible for maintaining order, "Is this the 'buried alive' screening site?" After receiving a positive answer, Chanel was stunned and didn't know what to react for a while. The other party seemed to understand Chanel's expression and nodded with a smile, "Yes, no one expected it. You'd better hurry up, otherwise you probably won't be able to queue up."

Chanel then reacted and rushed to sprint. The voice of the staff came from behind, "Don't make a mistake, the row on the left is the team on the right. The team on the morning." Chanel hurriedly gestured a "ok" gesture, and then ran to the team quickly. After less than five minutes, the team actually extended more than a dozen people. Chanel quickly stood at the end of the team and stood up panting.

"I hope we can catch up." A teasing voice came from the front. Chanel raised his head and saw the blonde boy in front of him. He stretched out his right hand friendly, "Tyronn-johnson." Chanel held the other party's right hand, but did not introduce himself, with a questioning attitude. Tyron didn't mind and said with a smile, "I heard that the venue today has 600 people. The online ticket release in the morning was cancelled because the system was paralyzed, so everyone rushed over, hoping that we could still get on the line."

Chanel then reacted, "But, 'buried alive' was the game at 5 pm. What should I do with the previous game?"

"To the right." Tyron pointed. A venue will play six or seven videos in a day. "Buried Alive" is the fourth work today. There were three works before that, including the popular "Big Thieves in the City". However, from the long queue of peaks, the queue of "Big Thieves in the City" is less than one-fifth of "Big Thieves in the City". Such a huge gap really makes people fall into the eye. "You have also heard of the praise of this work, so you came here specially?"

Tyron said enthusiastically that Chanel didn't want to pay attention to it, but after thinking about it, he replied, "No, I've watched the premiere."

In fact, Chanel had no intention of watching it again. On the one hand, it was because the movie was too thrilling and exciting, and the viewing process was really not a wonderful experience; on the other hand, it was because "buried alive" itself was not a classic work that made people watch repeatedly. But in the past two days, she has never forgotten Lan Li's face, especially the fear and panic between the interweaving light and shadow, and the performance of being intoxicated is simply fascinating.

After hesitating for a while, Chanel decided to watch it again for a second time, but when she encountered such a situation, she felt that the premiere was much more comfortable.

"God, have you watched the premiere? How about it? Is it really as legendary, amazing?" Tyron said excitedly, "I heard that the actors in this work have really outstanding acting skills. Is this true or exaggerated?"

Chanelle said without thinking, "Of course it's true!"

The exclamation suddenly came to the scene because everyone around him looked at him, and curious inquiries swarmed, "What kind of work is this? Isn't the male protagonist Renly Hall a newcomer? No one noticed it before, why did it suddenly become popular overnight? What exactly does the movie talk about? How is the male protagonist's performance? I heard that someone was scared to tears after watching the movie. Is this true?"...

The chirping inquiry drowned Chanel in a blink of an eye. The people queuing around looked at Chanel. In just a blink of an eye, Chanel became the focus of attention, which caught her off guard. In those earnest eyes, she could clearly feel people's enthusiasm and expectations.

Chanel subconsciously glanced at Tyron, and Tyron clenched his fists in encouragement, which made Chanel laugh a little, and then said loudly, "Yes, the male lead is indeed a newcomer, but the performance is really great. The first time I saw him was..."

The long queue of peaks was unfolding, and the Toronto Film Festival boom reached a new peak.
