“Call Jane” is unabashedly pro-choice, one of many recent films to argue on behalf of abortion.
And, given the 2022 Supreme Court ended Roe v. Wade a few months back, the progressive appetite for “Call Jane” should be as strong as possible. Why not release the drama days before the midterm elections?
Except very few people showed up to see the film over the weekend. That’s an understatement.
The movie earned just $243,922 at the box office from more than 1,000 screens. That isn’t a wide release in the traditional sense, but it’s far more than most indie films receive.
[Hoo boy — that’s a huge flop. The distribution costs alone to get a film into 1,000 theaters are way more than the ticket sales will cover, let alone the film’s production costs. Be sure to click over to Christian’s analysis to see who will take a bath on this one. Heh. — Ed]
