“A Prairie Home Companion” generated $4.7 million in ticket sales in its first weekend, according to the AP.
The movie based on the popular public radio show (and featuring Garrison Keillor on screen) was seventh in the weekend’s box office listings; “Cars” was first at $63 million.
The Detroit Free Press, for one, liked the flick. The reviewer calls it “both a sweet summation and a casually, almost nonchalantly, great movie.”
