Saturday AM Update: Some studio distribution bosses used to say that moviegoing is a 52-week business. Well, that’s not the philosophy this weekend, and it’s even grimmer next weekend, as most of the majors figured in the wake of MLK weekend, and a traditional box office dead zone like January with omicron flying around, that it wasn’t worth the P&A spend to put any kind of movie out there. Back in the good ole days, and we’re talking five years ago, post-MLK was the time when Universal turned M. Night Shyamalan’s Blumhouse horror movie Split into an event with a $40M start, and Paramount settled for second on their Vin Diesel sequel, xXx: Return of Xander Cage, for $20.1M. And so, we settle for Sony’s Spider-Man: No Way Home rising to No. 1 in its 6th weekend with $13.5M , putting its massive domestic total at $720.4M, and Paramount/Spyglass Media’s Scream in second with a -61% drop with $11.7M and a $50.6M ten-day total.

The Mexican singer-songwriter Silvana Estrada grew up surrounded by instruments. As a kid, she watched as musicians floated in and out of her family’s bucolic workshop in Veracruz, where her parents spent hours crafting stunning violas, cellos, and guitars. “I saw that music isn’t just a way of making a living,” she says. “I would hear all these musicians trying their new instruments, super joyful and super grateful to my parents, and I was like ‘OK, this isn’t just a work tool. It’s a tool for joy, it’s a tool for passion.’” Over the years, she picked up the Venezuelan cuatro — a four-string instrument that felt like a “tiny hug” when she would play it — and began learning firsthand how to process emotion through music. It’s a quality that explains the shattering intimacy of her new album, Marchita : The project’s songs, many of them stripped back and fragile as gossamer, incorporate Estrada’s background studying jazz, as well as her deep love of son jarocho, huapango, and … [Read more...] about Silvana Estrada on the Intimate, Introspective Journey That Led to ‘Marchita’
