Where it turns up
Friday, December 15, 2023 Third weekend of December 2023
Expected 'A nice psa in the low 20's' Actual: $32.1K per screen
In the note
Looks like a very promising $1.5 million or so for the weekend. American Fiction - Went 7 runs in NY, LA and Austin, and once again Austin is showing up as a market that needs to be considered in the top tier of these platform releases.
Friday, January 19, 2024 Third weekend of January 2024
In the note
The upscale AA market is pretty crowded these days and this film is playing very similarly to what we saw on Clarence last week and American Fiction for most of its run.
Friday, February 2, 2024 First weekend of February 2024
On the chart American Fiction (expansion): $2.4M, -8%
