'Enchanted' again tops box office
BY DAVID GERMAIN ASSOCIATED PRESS
LOS ANGELES — The fairy-tale romance "Enchanted" maintained its magic at the box office, pulling in $17 million to remain the top movie amid a sleepy weekend at theater.
Disney's "Enchanted," starring Amy Adams as a cartoon princess banished by her fiance's wicked stepmother (Susan Sarandon) to live-action Manhattan, raised its total to $70.6 million, according to studio estimates Sunday.
After a solid Thanksgiving holiday in which revenues compared to the same period last year, Hollywood's business sank back into a box-office funk that has persisted most of the fall.
The top 12 movies took in $76.6 million, down 6 percent from the same weekend last year, when "Happy Feet" led the box office with $17.5 million and "Casino Royale" was No. 2 with $15.1 million.

The weekend's only new wide release, the Weinstein Co. and MGM thriller "Awake," opened in fourth-place with $6 million. "Awake" stars Hayden Christensen, Jessica Alba and Terrence Howard in a tale about a man who is conscious during heart surgery and overhears his wife's plot to kill him.
not been able to rise above the levels we were hitting last year at this time."
In limited release, the acclaimed comic drama "The Savages" debuted strongly with $153,121 in four New York City and Los Angeles theaters, averaging $38,280 a cinema, compared to a $3,002 average in 2,002 theaters for "Awake."
