Starring Owen Wilson and Rachel McAdams, Midnight in Paris grossed an estimated $1.9 million for the weekend, pushing its total to $41.8 million and overtaking Hannah and Her Sisters, which cumed $40.1 million in 1986 (not accounting for inflation).
Midnight in Paris is the rare specialty title that catches fire with general audiences. The movie opened in only six theaters on May 20 to score one of the best location averages of all time ($99,834) at the domestic box office. At its widest point, the film played in more than 1,000 theaters. Its current count is 700.
In the film, Wilson’s character discovers an alternate reality while in Paris with his with his fiancee, Inez (Rachel McAdams), Sony Classics’ Michael Barker and Tom Bernard say there are several reasons why the film is resonating.
For one, the movie embraces Paris in a way that appeals to anyone who has either visited the city, or wants to visit. And Wilson plays the sort of “everyman” character that a moviegoers tend to see in more mainstream films, versus in arthouse titles (or in an Allen’s film). It also helps that critics across the country — and not just in New York — have given Midnight in Parisgreat reviews.
Midnight in Paris is Sony Classics’ No. 2 top grosser of all time after Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which earned $128.1 million domestically.
Overseas, Midnight in Paris has earned a strong $33.5 million, for a worldwide total of $73.9 million to date. ]]>
They were spotted together many times towards the end of last year and finally confirmed their romance by gracing the red carpet at the Cannes International Film Festival in May.
It’s now been claimed the relationship is hotting up, with the pair already sharing a home.
“Rachel and Michael are now living together, even though it’s often out of a suitcase because they both travel so much,” a source told National Enquirer. “Michael has settled into her place in Toronto, Canada and most of his stuff is there.”
Michael has 12-year-old daughter Lily with his ex-partner Kate Beckinsale, who he dated for nine years. Rachel has met Lily and they get along famously, much to the 42-year-old actor’s delight.
There have been rumours the couple are considering tying the knot, after Rachel was spotted wearing what looked like an engagement ring, and those close to the pair hope he’ll pop the question soon.
“Rachel and Lily get along great, and that’s incredibly important to Michael,” the insider added. “All of their friends believe it’s the real thing for both of them.”
