マギー・ギレンホールの『The Bride!』はオープニング週末に国内730万ドル、世界1360万ドルの興行収入を記録したが、ワーナー・ブラザースの予測を下回った。R指定のこの映画は『フランケンシュタインの花嫁』のフェミニスト版で、公開延期や観客の拒絶などの課題に直面した。これにより同スタジオの9作連続1位オープニングの連鎖が終わった。
マギー・ギレンホール監督の『The Bride!』は、『フランケンシュタインの花嫁』を1930年代を舞台にしたパンク・ロック調のフェミニスト物語として再解釈した作品だ。クリスチャン・ベール演じる孤独なフランケンシュタインの怪物が、アネット・ベニング演じる狂気の科学者を雇って伴侶を作らせ、ジェシー・バッキー演じるその女性とともに無法者として逃亡する姿を描く。Varietyによると、ワーナー・ブラザースの製作費は9000万ドル、マーケティング費6500万ドルを投じたギレンホール監督の2021年の『The Lost Daughter』以来2作目の監督作だ。
Xの議論では、『The Bride!』の9000万ドル予算に対し世界1360万ドルの低調なオープニングを強調し、ワーナー・ブラザースの重大失敗で1位連鎖終了と位置づけている。ニュースメディアは数字を中立的に報じ、一部ユーザーはジャンル混同と過剰支出を批判。他は映画の芸術的挑戦とキャストを擁護し、カルト的人気を予測。「反ウォーク」派は商業失敗を祝う。

Unfortunately THE BRIDE flopped at the BO in spite of a compelling concept, great cast & cinematic visuals.

On the bright side director Maggie Gyllenhaal & headliner Jessie Buckley clearly lean toward arthouse sensibilities and in that space they will continue to thrive.

The trades pronounced THE BRIDE! dead, so I’m going to see it in the hopes I can electrify some life into it’s dead corpse, because, unlike the rest of Film Twitter, I support bold, original swings on opening weekend. pic.twitter.com/nkt7bfm89e

Can't disagree. But this was a period gangster movie with no horror, no romance, and piddling action. What was the audience supposed to be? 5 Reasons ‘The Bride!’ Was Dead on Arrival at the Box Office https://t.co/pcMibirCvz via @variety
