After the film, the director took the stage to answer audience questions and eventually got aro...

    Arthouse Audit: 'Hannah Arendt' Leads New Openings, 'The East' and 'Kings of Summer' Open Just OK

    by Tom Brueggemann on June 2, 2013

    Early summer specialized releases are falling short of the initial grosses of breakout films from the last two years. But several films representing a range of audience appeal (primarily younger-oriented) are showing varying levels of strength. A surprisingly strong New York gross from the German fi...

    by Tom Brueggemann on June 2, 2013

    With the help of an unexpected sleeper success ("Now You See Me") and a continued decent showing for "Fast and Furious 6," the combined weekend gross for the top 10 again rose above last year's ($150 million, up from $133) even with the disappointing initial numbers from "After Earth," which was exp...

    'After Earth' Fails to Open at Number One, Lags Behind 'Now You See Me' As Top Newcomer

    by Tom Brueggemann on June 1, 2013

    As Sony's "After Earth" opened Friday, an irresistible force (Will Smith, with a two-decade record of #1 openings) met an unmovable object (director M. Night Shyamalan's declining box office and critical appeal), and the latter won. "After Earth," top-heavy with Smith family involvement (Smith's co-...

    by Tom Brueggemann on May 26, 2013

    Over the past two years, the Memorial Day weekend has become a significant time to release important new specialized films.

    Arthouse Audit: 'Frances Ha' Debuts Strong With Sold Out Shows in NY and LA

    by Tom Brueggemann on May 19, 2013

    After a weak spring dominated by three indie hits that went wide quickly, "Frances Ha" stands out a potential arthouse success.
