Café Society, the latest film written and directed by Woody Allen, is out now in selected US cinemas. It has been open for a little over a week, with a strong week 1 and weekend 2 result. The film has earned $1,377,379 in the US. It was the 17th highest grossing film in the US this weekend past, just ahead of the Blake Lively starring The Shallows.
This adds to the $7,447,849 posted in France (and French speaking Switzerland). The current global box office stands at $8,825,228. It should pass the $10m mark in no time.
It is tracking ahead of Allen’s recent efforts – Irrational Man and Magic In The Moonlight, although it wont surpass the minor blockbuster that was Blue Jasmine.
