NATHANIEL R in Hobbs & Shaw, box office, moviegoing

What did you see? We took a beach weekend in Fire Island so the movies weren't viewed though they were still very much on our mind. Particular due to a showtunes night at the Pavilion where ample clips from ChicagoBurlesque, Dreamgirls and more were shown. FYI: Catherine Zeta Jones' Velma Kelly is still magic.

The Farewell continues to be a significant word of mouth hit (yay!) In limited release just outside of these charts, the Ophir nominee (and potential Oscar submission) Tel Aviv on Fire opened at 11 theaters and earned 47k while Jennifer Kent's brutal flick The Nightingale earned $40k at 2 theaters.
