Oscar weekend, the Oscar shorts grossed $598K in 410 theaters. Shorts TV/Magnolia Pictures’ 2019 Oscar Nominated Shorts has totaled just over $3.2M in its three weekends. Its $2.27M weekend gross is short of the debut weekend of the company’s faith title I Can Only Imagine, which rolled out last March in a fairly wide 1,629 theaters grossing $17.1M ($10,503 average). Set in the South, Roadside’s Run The Race centers on two brothers who face escalating problems. Santa Rita noted Sunday: “ Multiple sold out shows were reported in Midland, Big Spring and Odessa while the film ranked among the top films at the bulk of both the commercial and upscale theaters at which it opened.” The winner of an Audience Award at the Austin Film Festival, the title will expand to about 40 theaters across Texas next weekend in addition to exclusive engagements in New York and L.A. It wasn’t a gusher, but it had the second-highest PTA among the specialty opener. The label drilled closer to home with its weekend start in northern Texas. The filmmaking team behind period oil drama The Iron Orchard opted to release their title through their own Santa Rita Film Co. The company said its $7,100 gross in a single New York run should “secure additional theatrical bookings across the country.” For now the San Francisco International Film Festival premiere is heading to L.A. Oscilloscope touted its 100% RT rating and other critical kudos for its weekend documentary debut Wrestle on Sunday morning.
