Weekend Movie Wrap-Up

January 11th, 2009 by Wendie


Gran Torino, the flick Clint Eastwood both directed and starred in, has taken the number one spot for weekend box office.  I love that the old dude is the one responsible for a $29M wide release open.  Bride Wars brought in $21.5M, followed closely by The Unborn with $21.1M.  Marley & Me dropped to fourth place after being on top for two weeks and The Curious Case of Benjamin Button held on to the fifth position.

    Gran Torino was fantastic.

    I never understood what would compel someone to both direct and star in their own movie.

    I mean, I guess it’s not a bad thing, it just strikes me as odd.
