BOX-OFFICE CHARTS

The UK chart is in a state of flux, just recovering from the double- whammy of Twelve Monkeys and The Birdcage (which, as in the US, has been a tremendous - and tremendously undeserved - success). The chart is merely dented by the unexceptional likes of Copycat (which made pounds 639,891 over the weekend on 243 screens), starring Holly Hunter (left), and Barb Wire (which did a paltry pounds 183,826 on 214 screens). Expect to see Kids and the Richard Gere thriller Primal Fear dominating in the coming weeks.
