Tamara Jenkins‘ “The Savages” was atop the iW BOT, according to final numbers posted this afternoon at indieWIRE.com. The Laura Linney–Philip Seymour Hoffman starrer averaged $37,965 from four locations. Julian Schabel‘s “The Diving Bell and the Butterfly” opened just behind it, averaging a still potent $25,240 on three screens as both awards contenders head into expansion.
