maybe In theCut won't do that bad, but Elephant had a good limitted release as well and it's not necessarily headed towards a huge box office gross:
"Scoring big numbers in limited release were Jane Campion's dark and erotic murder thriller In The Cut, starring Meg Ryan, and Gus Van Sant's minimalist Elephant, featuring a group of unknown and first-time teen actors in a drama loosely suggested by the Columbine school shootings. While the former took in $95,000 at six theatres, the latter, which won the top prize at last spring's Cannes Film Festival, grossed $90,000 in six theatres.
Though many critics called the film listless, Disney's latest animated saga Brother Bear debuted with fantastic grosses, taking in $285,000 in two New York City and Los Angeles theatres.
The movie, which features the voice of Joaquin Phoenix as an Inuit boy seeking to atone for the misdeeds that have turned him into a bear, expands to about 3,000 theatres the coming weekend."
