The latest film that tries to bring the character of Steve Jobs to the general public starring Michael Fassbender and directed by Dany Boyle, it has passed without pain or glory through American cinemas. For a few days the film has already been available in more countries but the expectations of being able to recover the investment that Universal Studios has made in the film is far from being a reality.
The director of the film, Dany Boyle, has been moving the film around the different festivals in order to attract a greater number of viewers. Although at the moment he has only obtained one award, that of the Palm Spring Festival for the best leading actor. But he has not done badly in the nominations for the Golden Globes, where he has achieved four nominationsBest Lead Actor, Best Supporting Actress, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Music.
The Steve Jobs movie is nominated this time for three BAFTA awards, in the same categories as in the Golden Globes, except in the music section, where the music producer has not had the same luck. Universal Studios has invested in the film about 60 million dollars, 30 of which were to buy the rights that were in its possession from Sony. The other 30 million correspond to the expenses of producing the film.
At the moment in the United States the movie has grossed just over $ 10 million, but if it finally obtains a Golden Globe or English BAFTA, it will surely attract the interest of all those users who have not yet gone to see it, so that the production company can recover some more money to try to compensate for the losses it has made today. had with the movie.
