'Horton' holds tight as market dips

April 14, 2008 Two French titles, "Bienvenue Chez Les Ch'tis" and "Disco" maintained their holds in the local market and figured as well in the international totals, with "Ch'tis" taking in $7.7 million at its seventh weekend and "Disco," which dropped 44% at its second weekend, tallying $5.1 million. Along with "Horton," family fare is still in the forefront in a declining market as spring school holidays slowly fade in scattered markets around the globe. "The Spiderwick Chronicles" took in $4 million from 1,836 screens in 43 countries (cume: $69.6 million), while "The Game Plan" added $3.1 million from 1,424 screens in 13 markets (cume: $47.4 million).
