to remember

A journey as intense and dazzling as the story it tells. love fu Holding onto the top spot at the US box office for the third week in a row, as impressive as its casting: the Gilles Lelouch film dropped just 26% from October 23rd to 29th and has already reached 3 milestones. million viewers.

If the end of the holidays may slow it down, given its success with young adults, the feature film has everything to finish with more than 5 million viewers. That would make it the fourth biggest hit of the year in France, ahead of the abysmal No. 4, but behind No. 2. In the top 5, which then includes the three French films Un p’tit Ram Met and The Count of Monte Cristo. beside him.

When it comes time to evaluate, quietly, the box office combines two axes of question, on the one hand, with theaters whose health is deteriorating and, on the other hand, with French films that monopolize the peaks. A good double with Gilles Lellouche and Pierre Niney thanks to Vice Versa 2 and L’Amour ouf and Le Comte de Monte-Cristo respectively.

But we’re not there yet, and the feature film has had to contend with several new features including Venom – The Last Dancewhich has the best per-copy average of the week (1,142 viewers per screen) and the second-best start for a Tom Hardy-led Marvel franchise. Which ensures that it will cross the million mark, just like its predecessors.

At the end of the third weekend, Juror #2 Gave up ahead at the finish line Mr. Aznaur (Which makes him the twenty-sixth millionaire of 2024, even if we expected better from the movie at the box office). However, Clint Eastwood’s latest is off to a better start than Cry Macho and The Case of Richard Jewell, his two previous opus, but less well than The Mule, which crossed the million mark.

Will the fifteenth (and last) juror become the fifteenth (and last) in his career to reach this symbolic bar? With the third best average per copy of the week and positive word of mouth, this legal drama is already halfway through and has another three-day weekend waiting for its task.

What started the golden palm branch?

Sixth behind one A wild robot which leads to 2 million Anora brings together 212,504 viewers. Which is better than Unfiltered (or Titan, banned under 16 and The Crown after publication), but less good than Anatomy of the Autumn, among the branches of the last Palme d’Or. And above all, Sean Baker’s record in France was previously held by The Florida Project and its 167,914 entries.

Therefore, there is a palm effect for Anor, who has everything to get 500,000 entries. More than likely, as it’s a generally accessible and not too divisive film, and many theaters are likely to keep it for a few weeks.
