What start for the piano accident, the new Quentin Dupieux?
Adèle Exarchopoulos ready to do as well as with mandibles?
No false note for the 2025 vintage of Quentin Dupieux,,
The piano accident Starts at the top of the French box office with more than 38,000 admissions recorded this Wednesday in 306 rooms. An honorable average of 117 spectators per copy, which allows this absurd comedy to take the head of the first day box office.
If this launch remains below that of The second act -which accumulated nearly 70,000 admissions when it was released in May 2024 after opening the Cannes Film Festival, taking advantage of a large number of previews, The piano accident thus sign a better score on its only first day of operation and makes a launch in the same waters as Smokingin 2022 and especially that Mandibles (2021), the other collaboration of Quentin Dupieux And Adèle Exarchopouloswhich had finished 400,000 admissions. The largest total of the filmmaker in France to date.
The piano accident a short head is ahead of Mattersthe new film of Celine Song.
With 35,000 admissions in 257 cinemas, the romantic comedy, carried by Dakota Johnson,, Chris Evans And Pedro Pascaldisplays the best average per room of the week (135 spectators). A nice start, even if it remains slightly below the box of Bridget Jones 4who had crossed the 43,000 tickets mark from the first day last February.
But with its glamorous and Hollywood trio, Celine Song still does much better than his latest film (yet named to the Oscars) Past Lives – Our lives beforewhich had made 40,000 admissions … during his first week.
