![]() Given the wonky turnout of adults during the post-pandemic, if a studio knows it doesn’t have any pulse for a film at 100%, they’re not going to spend, so it stands to reason the promo push for this Carey Mulligan-Zoe Kazan movie is in its awards ledger, not theatrical. Nobody cares about the downfall of Harvey Weinstein in between NYC and LA. In the same breath, there never was an audience for this newsroom-meets-Hollywood drama outside industry moviegoers in NYC and LA. Those who watched gave the film an A CinemaScore and 89% positive on Comscore/Screen Engine’s PostTrak. Uni launched She Said during Thanksgiving week in an attempt to get as many people as they could. It’s not on streaming, it’s on the big screen, and at the end of the day it’s about this pic’s tail in home entertainment, especially as it ratchets up buzz among awards voters. A few things: First, bravo for Universal for having the audacity to get behind an important #MeToo adaptation about The New York Times’ takedown of Harvey Weinstein. With a production cost of $30M, She Saidis doing the worst of the two studio attempts at adults, with $2.25M opening at 2,022 theaters.
