But I wouldn’t bet on it.
Rumours is an offbeat comedy that turns increasingly surreal.
Leaders of the world’s wealthiest democracies gather for the annual G7 summit to draft a provisional statement regarding a global crisis. They soon become spectacles of incompetence, contending with increasingly surreal obstacles as night falls in the misty woods and they realize they are suddenly alone.
The reviews of this film were a-ight (75% Tomatometer, 69 Metacritic), but audience reception was far less enthusiastic (5.0 IMDb, 28% Popcornmeter). It was a complete bomb at the box office, disappearing from U.S. theaters so fast you probably weren’t aware of it. It grossed about a half-million dollars in 630 theaters in week one, then basically got jettisoned by most of those theaters before it could get a week two. In that first week it averaged $109 per theater per day – about ten tickets. Assuming three showings per day, that’s an average crowd of three people.
