At 12:00PM today, the 12th BJIFF started ticketing on time. Many film fans logged in the ticketing system at the precise moment after a long time of waiting.  

　　Thanks to the enthusiastic support of all the film fans, the tickets at many cinemas have been “sold out” almost immediately as soon as the ticketing started.  

　　The group of film fans has also stirred. Some are busy seeking for tickets due to failure of ticketing while some are reluctant to transfer the tickets in hand, which fully reflects the approaching festival atmosphere of the BJIFF. 

　　Let’s review the “ticketing” information now. 

　　Above all, the tickets of following three films are sold out the fastest: One Piece Film Red, Journey to the West, The Godfather (50th Anniversary Dolby Vision Version). Those who successfully got the tickets can be called the fast shooters.

　　Oasis, The 400 Blows and A Man and a Woman are the films from the "Restored Classics" section, a must for film fans every year. It also proves that the classics will never be out of date and everyone is willing to buy a film ticket for the masters in the heart.

　　One Fine Morning, Riverside Mukolitta and Alcarràs are the latest masterpiece selected from the major international film festivals this year. It is not surprising that it can arouse the interest of the film fans. After all, they can enjoy them first and grasp the trend of creation nowadays. 

　　However, it is very interesting that a poetic film like Landscape in the Mist has aroused great enthusiasm of the film fans.

　　In addition, three Japanese films Ghost in the Shell, INU-OH and The Fish Tale have been included in the list. Oshii Mamoru, Masaaki Yuasa and Sh?ichi Okita are the Japanese directors highly recognized by Chinese fans. They are sought after so enthusiastically that it’s really lucky to get one of these tickets.
