Taylor Swift stays on top but 'Flower Moon' impresses on North America screens.

LOS ANGELES -- The new Taylor Swift concert movie held on to the top spot in North American theaters this weekend, but history-based crime epic 'Killers of the Flower Moon' had an impressive debut - the best for a Martin Scorsese film since 2010.

'Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour,' distributed by AMC Theaters, took in an estimated $31 million for the Friday-through-Sunday period, industry watcher Exhibitor Relations said Sunday.

That pushed the two-week domestic total for the film, which includes scenes from three of the pop superstar's concerts, to $129.8 million. It is now the only concert film ever to top the box office for two straight weekends, Variety reported.

Meantime, Scorsese's new film had a strong debut - particularly given its three and a half hour runtime, its upcoming release on streamer Apple TV+, and the inability of stars Robert De Niro and Leonardo DiCaprio to promote it as the actors strike continues - taking in $23 million.

'Reviews and audience scores are superb,' said analyst David A. Gross of Franchise Entertainment Research. With a slew of award nominations expected for the director and cast (also including Jesse Plemons and Lily Gladstone), 'the picture is set up for a strong run,' Gross added.
