‘Courageous’ to open in 150 new cities


ALBANY, Ga. (BP) — The church-made film “Courageous” will open in about 150 new cities this weekend, including such non-Bible Belt places as Juneau, Alaska; Port Angeles Wash.; and Oxford, Maine.

Heading into its sixth weekend, the film has made $28 million. This is the fourth straight weekend it has opened in at least 50 new theaters nationwide.

It opened in more than 100 new theaters last weekend, when it accomplished a rare feet and actually climbed back into the Top 10 after falling out of it.

Made by Sherwood Baptist Church in Albany, Ga., the movie follows the story of five men — four of them police officers — as they seek to become better fathers. It was the No. 1 new movie on opening weekend.
