The new film is estimated to pull in a strong $26k in Houston and $13K in Atlanta in its debut weekend.
"We are thrilled with the receptionAmericahas received," noted Molen. "What makes this film unlike any today is the history behind it, the truth about American history and the place we have in world history. As we expand to 1,000 screens next week, I call upon all Americans to join us at their local theater to celebrate our great country."
"We are very happy that so many people are turning out to see our film and are grateful to our wonderful partner Lionsgate for this debut," said D'Souza. "After the success of 2016 I knew there was an audience that wanted to be proud of our country and see a film that took an honest look at how this country came to be and where we go from here. We're grateful to our friends in Atlanta and Houston for their strong support."
With re-creations of important moments in history combined with interviews with some of her harshest present-day critics, America explains what made America great and defends her from the narrative that she has been a force for evil in the world.
