Russia's top-grossing September film was 2008's 'Twilight'
Original: Russia’s top-grossing movie in September was ‘Twilight.’ Yes, the one from 2008.
Meduza reports that the highest-grossing film in Russian cinemas in September was 'Twilight,' the 2008 vampire romance, not a new release. The odd box-office result highlights how Russia's film market has thinned out since Western studios pulled new releases from the country, leaving re-releases of older Hollywood titles to top the charts.
Why now: The unusual sight of a 17-year-old film topping the box office reflects Russia's isolation from new Hollywood releases, surprising readers.
