LEONARDO DICAPRIO - COLUMBUS DAY CROWDED WITH NEW FILMS

The box office will become even more crowded this weekend (the Columbus Day holiday) as four new films join the traffic jam and one film opens wide after a limited release. They will all be chasing Beverly Hills Chihuahua, which opened with a stronger-than-expected $29.3 million last weekend. Leading the newcomers is Ridley Scott's Body of Lies, starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe, which is expected to earn $13-16 million -- about what is expected for Chihuahua . The horror film Quarantine , which was not screened for critics, is also expected to make a solid debut.
