Per Theater Chart: Going Nowhere
October 16, 2012
There was only one film to crack the $10,000 mark on this week's Per Theater Chart. Middle Of Nowhere managed that feat with $68,000 in six theaters for an average of $11,318. Simon and the Oaks came very close with $9,963 in its one theater.
Most of the rest of the new limited releases were pretty weak. The Big Picture and Smashed weren't bad with averages of $6,880 and $6,736 respectively. And both films have good reviews, so they both could have strong legs. Least Among Saints was a little weak with an average of $3,944 in four theaters. Special Forces barely topped the Mendoza Line with an average of $2,152 in five theaters. Photographic Memory wasn't as lucky with an average of $1,503 in two. Finally we get to War of the Buttons and its average of $947 in five theaters.
This past week also saw milestones reached for a few Per Theater Chart alumni:
