Box office: Mary and Max to hit $1.4m

Samson and Delilah has shown no sign of slowing down at the box office, while My Year Without Sex is steadily creeping towards $1 million.

Mary and Max looks set to hit the $1.4 million milestone before it bows out of cinemas. The $8 million film has been in cinemas for 10 weeks so far.

Icon Films released Steve Jacobs’ South African epic Disgrace this week on around 25 screens nationally.

While Icon has opted not to create a website for the $10 million feature, you can watch the trailer for Disgrace in the Video Content section.
