NEW: BACKROOMS is biggest opening-day release in @Elevation_Pics history. Opened #1 in Canada, earning est. $2.2M Friday, on track to hit $5M at Cdn box office by end of weekend. For context, $5M would be high-performing number for a U.S. title’s *full* theatrical run in Canada.
@redroomrantings@CoreyAtad I would guess it's English-language and French-language screenings; I don't think undertone had any dubbed screenings here, and NTBTSTM clearly had very few. The latter played at Cinéma du Parc for at least a couple months so making only $778 doesn't make much sense.
@jonathanmb32 “All Along the Watchtower” is in both AMERICAN BEAUTY and FORREST GUMP, but the Dylan version in the former and the Hendrix version in the latter.
@intothecrevasse Saw JOHN WICK CHAPTER 2 in the Cinéma Banque Scotia in downtown Montréal and you can literally see the CINÉMA sign in the background of the opening car chase.
