Chapter 35 A Good Idea

October 1994 arrived, and Adrian's life had entered a cycle again, involving post-production work on "Forrest Gump" in the studio, understanding and dealing with other matters in the office while pestering Charlize, and dating different women.

The post-production of "Forrest Gump" was essentially coming to an end. Although Adrian had only seen the roughest cut, he was clear that there wouldn't be too many surprises, and the promotion could start at the end of the month.

As for the other movies, the aftermath of the summer releases was still echoing. Whether it was "True Lies," "Twisters," or "Bad Boys," they were all still screening in theaters, even if it was only in a little over a hundred. "True Lies" had scraped nearly $150 million at the North American box office, "Twisters" even more—by about a hundred million more—and although "Bad Boys" had just $70 million, it was already a remarkable achievement, especially since this didn't include the international box office.
