While it didn't make the top ten, Away From Her came in at #20, when Lionsgate expanded to 54 screens to score a weekend gross of $317,000, and a total worldwide gross of $708,090 USD. The average theat(er)re brought in $5870! Sarah Polley must be counting her lucky stars that Spidey 3 turned out to be a dismal mess.
Douglas Coupland's film Everything's Gone Green, was anything but, with a paltry sum of $14,494 CDN in 28 days, and 4 theatres in domestic release according to Box Office Mojo (may need to sign up - account is free). Hardly enough money to pay for all the advertisements I saw City of Toronto take down on Queen Street.
