STEVEN SPIELBERG - MUNICH LEADS OVERSEAS BOX OFFICE FOR SECOND WEEK

While Steven Spielberg's Munich remains a tough sell domestically -- despite receiving a best-picture Oscar nomination -- it returned for a second week to the top of the international box office. The film earned $11.6 million from 31 countries. Disney decided to release its hand-drawn animated Bambi and the Great Prince of the Forest theatrically in nine countries, where it performed nicely, earning $4.1 million, including $2 million in France, where it debuted in second place. The sequel to Disney's 1942 original is being released today (Tuesday) on DVD domestically under the title Bambi II.
