'Harry' Stumbles But Still Wins Race
J.K. Rowling's bewitching story took a 58 percent fall at the box office since last weekend, but he still beat out "Behind Enemy Lines" and "Spy Game."

Good news and bad news for "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." First the good: It took in $24.1 million this weekend and remains the No. 1 movie for the third straight weekend. The bad: Its gross dropped a dramatic 58 percent from last week's Friday-to-Sunday total, according to studio estimates Sunday. (Still, don't cry for Harry; so far, the film has taken in $220.1 million in 17 days.) "Monsters, Inc." slipped even more, suffering a 61 percent decline from the previous weekend. Hot on Harry's broomstick, though trailing: "Behind Enemy Lines," starring Gene Hackman and Owen Wilson, which opened in second place; and "Spy Game," with Robert Redford and Brad Pitt, in third. In limited release, the historical drama "The Affair of the Necklace," starring Hilary Swank, took in $136,000 in 18 theaters for a healthy average of $7,556, while the western "Texas Rangers" bombed with just $300,000 in 402 theaters for a feeble $746 average.
