Opening Weekend...(2/15/02 - 2/17/02)

Friday's Box Office Numbers

 With her face showing up just about everywhere to promote her new movie, Britney Spears saw a solid result from her Crossroads flick on opening day, as the film turned in $5.1 million at the box office for $2,148 per-location in 2,380 theaters. (Ranked at #2!) While a sturdy launch, opening night may have been a frenzy to get in for hardcore Britney fans which could cause a slide in Saturday ticket sales. A decline in business is not guaranteed but an open possibility. Expect 'Crossroads'to pick up $13 - 14.5 million over the 3-day frame and $16.0 - 17.5 million over the 4-day period.

The Story
from - crossroadsmovie.com


 "Crossroads" is the story of three childhood friends, Lucy (Britney Spears), Kit (Zoe Saldana) and Mimi (Taryn Manning), who, after eight years apart rediscover their friendship on a cross-country trip. With barely a plan, practically no money but plenty of dreams, the girls catch a lift with Mimi's handsome, mysterious friend Ben (Anson Mount) in his '73 Buick convertible. Along the way they not only gather experiences that will change their lives forever, but they also discover how important it is to hold onto their hearts' desires.
