"Christmas with the Kranks"

The top five, with their $K per screen numbers:

The Aviator               6.3
Sideways                  5.8
House of Flying Daggers   4.2
A Very Long Engagement    4.1
The Life Aquatic with     4.0
 Steve Zissou

Turkey:  Christmas with the Kranks
  $0.9K per screen on 1825 screens

A film has to be out for at least three weeks to make the list to ensure that it has good word-of-mouth, and not just a splashy opening.

The Turkey is the film with less than $1K/screen which is showing on the most screens.

If we used box office numbers to judge which movies are good and which are not so good, the "The Wizard of OZ" would be a turkey.

the list of movies which have bad opening box offices, but are sleepers or become famously good movies later is very long indeed.

As is the opposite scenario.
