"I’m not totally convinced that this is not a joke, but the Huffington Post claims that the Weinstein Company is going to start running this TV ad for Under the Same Moon today. The immigration drama broke the record for the biggest opening for a Spanish-language film in the States last week, and essentially became TWC’s first Miramax-style success (acquire small/foreign film; identify and laser-target natural audience; use success with that audience to push film as general arthouse hit) since the Weinstein brothers divorced Disney in 2005. Apparently, Harvey thinks the way to maintain that success is by going after the segment of the audience that gets off on the idea that their movie choices could turn CNN pundit Lou Dobbs into a weepy little girl.

"Tyler Perry’s Meet The Browns made $20 million this weekend, which wasn’t enough to beat Horton Hears a Who at the box office. Drillbit Taylor opened with just $10 million; Variety vaguely says it’s “the second lowest” opening for Owen Wilson after The Big Bounce, but that statistic must exclude every Wes Anderson film and anything else that’s opened in platform release.
