Demographics of viewers. 78% White, 63% 55+ years of age.


As expected, this movie is playing to the middle of the country with ICON Cinema in Edmond, OK the top grossing location so far this weekend with $10K. The South is also dominant for the Sean McNamara-directed movie. Men/women split is 51%/49% with a 77% definite recommend from audiences. Those over 35 years of age numbered 87% with the largest demo being the 55+ crowd at 63%. Caucasians numbered 78%, Latino and Hispanic were 13%, Black moviegoers were 1% of ticket buyers with others being 2%.

It's a bio of a man who left office 36 years ago and died 20 years ago; he also stopped making public appearances for about a decade before he died. The USA was over 80% white when Reagan was president (under 60% today)

Yeah .. the filmgoers were always going to skew towards older white persons.

Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger give it two thumbs up.

So what? The opinions of white people and people over fifty-five years old are at least as valuable as those of anyone else.

It was a good crowd!

I was actually the only one in my theater in NYC

(though admittedly, I went at 11AM on a weekday, so most people were at work)

Still... New York City!

Why are you so scared of white people?

Who is checking the demographics when people enter the cinema?

reply

DemoKKKrat Loxists and Black Supremacists.

I don't see where Deadline provided a credible source for these statistics. Can you identify the credible source?

reply

Deadline IS the credible source. It's their whole raison-d'etre.

You're cute! They're a show business rag, not a news source.

reply

OH NOES!!!!
That's not very diverse, equal, or inclusive!!!

Quick now! We should force more blacks, women, Mexican, Italian, Indian, Chinese, lgbtqxyz, Japanese, Iranian people to attend to force equality!
Call the social justice police to enforce this NOW!!!

I'm crawling back into my safe space where everything is prefect, and nothing can hurt me ever.
