Still showing in several cinemas across France, The Count of Monte Cristocan still climb the rankings. Its video release is not scheduled before November 6, so it still has the opportunity to attract latecomers to the dark rooms, and to surpass The Cow and the Prisoner (8,851,251 admissions), Emmanuelle (8,894,132 admissions), The Bear (9,137,761 admissions) or The Big Blue (9,196,550 admissions). It will need to exceed 10.5 million admissions to climb into the top 10. We hope so!
