一部香港電影，於中、港、台同步開畫其實並不罕見。內地電影要到這一點看來仍有一點難度。近期則有一部台灣電影，剛於今天起同步於台灣、香港及內地開畫，可是香港發行氣勢上近乎是零。
這部同步開畫的電影，便是由程孝澤執導的《近在咫尺》，演員陣容包括明道、彭于晏、郭采潔及苑新雨，也算是不俗的陣容，以拳擊用來描愛情。電影在台灣也有十多家戲院上映，可惜在港於發行上碰上多部3D電影開畫，最終只能於淘大影藝開畫。
「講。鏟。片」情報人員日前便曾到獨家放映《近在咫尺》的影藝戲院，發現其實發行公司提供的宣傳品其實不少，除了海報以外，還有提供掛畫、多幅燈箱位置及兩款大型紙板，以單院發行電影來說，極為「落本」。
到底，這類既有台灣偶像演出的愛情小品，何以在港獲得如斯冷落對待？就連百老匯電影中心或是The Grand Cinema也容不下？也許有興趣支持台灣電影的朋友，不妨留意一下好了。

台灣電影 除非好似[海角7呺]在當地大收.引人注意.香港都唔咁接受台灣電影…明道、彭于晏、郭采潔及苑新雨..除左明道外.其他演員相信大部份人唔知乜水…

彭于晏及苑新雨我不清楚, 但明道在本港的風頭已被樣子跟他差不多但就更加細緻有型的阮經天所蓋過了. (明道的粉絲不要打我)
至於郭采潔, 我想觀眾會選擇同期的”一頁台北”而不是這一套吧.
基於卡士並不是太多人所熟識或喜歡, 所以這片會在香港上畫我反而感意外呢.

打算明天會去看的戲…

其實近年的台灣片拍得不錯，好像艋舺和聽說也很好。那班年青演員很有潛質，至少能演和各有特情。真的不知有套《近在咫尺》會上，連百老匯電影中心都沒上，怕且都等於沒開畫一樣。

近在咫尺發行情況比較特殊,資金由美亞,台灣盧米埃同大陸銀都合資,香港反而由銀都旗下南方影業發行並非由美亞娛樂發行,可能重心市場放在國內關係,南方只放在銀都戲院獨家發行實不奇怪,而且南方在港發行之影片亦鮮有於4大院商之戲院排片(情況有如南方發行部份國產片一樣)
其實美亞近年在台灣投資之影片亦曾在銀都在獨家發行(例子:孩子的天空)始於美亞著眼利益在電影台及影碟收入為主

First of all, I like to thank you Ryan for letting me know about this movie showing in Hong Kong.
As a minor cinema lover, I do not have all the time to go everywhere to look for movies. So it is very important that you do let us know, especially I see that you have sincerity to help promote lesser known movies that might have mass appeal.
However, I still think that you know the reason why 《近在咫尺》is not getting good treatment.
Look at the following factors:
1. 一頁台北, another similar movie being advertised at both Grand Cinema and Broadway Cinematheque for a limited run, is opening against 近在咫尺, and I just bought ticket for 一頁台北!
2. 近在咫尺 is not featured on the wmoov website, so I did not even know about its existence.
3. Too many film festivals at Broadway Cinematheque, therefore no showtimes for 近在咫尺.
I just like to say that, if TOY STORY 3 can dominate so many movie screens in the sizzling summer box office month of July, then how can a small movie like 近在咫尺 find adequate distribution when film festivals already take away so many movie screens?
Market domination/monolopy/oligopoly is the main business model for Hong Kong, so we are already lucky to have reasonable choices, at least at this point. I just hope that with the opening of Broadway at THE ONE mall, Broadway Cinematheque can return to more exclusive movies.
However, even when movies with potential mass appeal like 戀愛植男 , or a well made movie like 《艋舺》can flop so badly, then nothing surprises me about the 近在咫尺!
Ken
Actually, those who know 阮經天 may also know who 彭于晏 is, as they co-starred in 2007 TV series WAYWARD KENTING (我在墾丁*天氣晴). 彭于晏 also did 聽說, which I saw last year at Broadway Cinematheque and enjoyed it very much.
Still, no Taiwanese stars in Hong Kong, or even back in Taiwan, has real box office bankability anyway.

“一頁台北”係GRAND同電影中心都係每日兩場咁放, 可能係影展的關係,也可能係戲院的信心問題, 始終有幾多部係”海角七角”. “近在咫尺”的導演前作”渺渺”係藝術性非常重的電影,連帶呢部新片都唔多唔少會俾人非主流的感覺, 得一間影藝嚟做都唔出奇.
Ken
Therefore, we must conclude that 中港台同步開畫 does not work for small movies. Small movies, even with potential mainstream appeal, need to build momentum or word of mouth.
Even a well made movie like 《艋舺》, starring the most popular young Taiwanese actors and with them promoting the movie in Hong Kong, and with massive box office returns (albeit during Taiwan CNY) and great buzz and momentum, still flop in Hong Kong, then it is no surprise a non-proven movie like 《近在咫尺》will get zero notices.

一頁台北 8/19 才正式公映。

“可惜在港於發行上碰上多部3D電影開畫，最終只能於淘大影藝開畫。”
目前世界性的趨勢是到電影院的觀眾都是以看3D的大製作電影為主，和電視劇感覺差不多的小製作電影，是會愈來愈困難吸引到觀眾去電影院的了!

《近在咫尺》充滿了安達充漫畫的味道，不過原裝正版改篇安達充漫畫的電影，係香港票房都一般，更何況這種哈日風下的台灣偶像片？
至於兩岸三地同步放映這種綽頭更是多此一舉，美亞對準的市場只是大陸，香港只不過係例牌式上畫了事。
而同樣由郭采潔主演，最近百老匯電影中心網頁力谷的《一頁台北》，其實台灣票房比預期中低，不過誠品書店對好多香港人來說，始終也是一個不錯的話題。
Peter
今日剛剛看完《近在咫尺》和《台北星期天》，而昨日也看了《一頁台北》。兩日內看了三套台灣小品電影，在感覺上蠻不錯。本人都是近幾年才接觸台灣，但是有種怪怪的感覺，好像台灣電影來得較香港部份電影好，在香港很難找到一些好看的小品電影。看完《一頁台北》和《近在咫尺》有點愛上了郭采潔，還有就是《近在咫尺》的范新雨。另外我覺得在香港電影的演員方面，好像來來去去的幾個演員，真的希望香港能夠出演一些有潛質的新演員。

What you pointed out, about Hong Kong lack of, or its inability to produce new acting talent, is really old story.
That said, I also saw AU REVOIR TAIPEI today, the film director was present for a brief Q&A. It is a sweet romantic comedy, I love it, but it is exactly the kind of film HK doesn’t know how to make.

剛發現在boardway cinematheque的InDPanda 短片節有個叫 閃光微塵 的Program, 竟然是集合5位台灣導演:戴立忍、陳駿霖、蕭雅全、蔡辰書及林書宇的短片，據說”美” 正是”一頁台北”的前身。
Ken
I am indifferent towards 3D. I like to support 小製作電影!
I’ve seen 一頁台北, love it!
If my budget allows, I will go see 《近在咫尺》within this week.
Ken
