‘The Brutalist’ Nails Limited Expansion As A24 Turns Brady Corbet’s Epic Into Event Cinema – Specialty Box Office
'The Brutalist' nailed it at the indie film box office in limited expansion as distributor A24 hit the event cinema playbook with perks and an intermission.
This is another fine indie weekend as Hard Truths by iconic filmmaker Mike Leigh saw $165k at 22 theaters, a strong opening, despite severe weather in the south and the ongoing fire crisis in LA. New York, Washington D.C., San Francisco, Boston, Austin and Seattle were The Brutalist’s other top markets as audiences across the country responded with sold-out shows in both core city theaters and strong suburban runs, particularly in premium formats like Imax and 70mm engagements.
