DISNEY - UP A HIGH FLYER OVERSEAS

UP A HIGH FLYER OVERSEAS

Overseas, Disney/Pixar's Up remained high on the agendas of most moviegoers as it brought in an additional $21 million from 25 countries to bring its overseas total to $257.1 million. After falling to Quentin Tarantino's Inglourious Basterds the previous weekend, the computer-animated film roared back, even as Tarantino's how-I-won-the-war flick dropped to $8.5 million. The film has performed best in France, where it is set. In that country it has earned $23.4 million, more than 15 percent of its total overseas receipts of $154.7 million from 50 countries. Rounding out the top five were, in order, The Ugly Truth , with $7.9 million, G-Force , with $7.8 million, and the historical epic Agora , which took in $7.3 million in Spain alone.
