Meanwhile, Angel’s Young Washington dropped two places to finish in seventh this week with $3.7 million, giving the film a three-week total of $41.0 million. Falling one spot, the Focus Features release, Obsession took over eighth place with $2.5 million. This raises the film’s ten-week total to $258.5 million. In its fourth weekend of release, the Warner Bros. product Supergirl fell a spot to land in ninth place where it made $1.5 million, to move its four-week total to $69.9 million. Finally, following a ninth-place finish last weekend, Universal Pictures’ Disclosure Day dropped to tenth place where it brought in $1.4 million for the studio to give the film a six-week total of $114.7 million.
