"Beverly Hills Chihuahua" was number one at the box office again. “I think people are looking for lighter fare. They want to sit back, be entertained and laugh,” said Disney prexy of distribution Chuck Viane. I suppose that's true. And, did you know that the little chihuahua is voiced by Drew Barrymore? I mean, that's kind of cute, right?

Leonardo DiCaprio and Russell Crowe's "Body of Lies" bombed. As did Dennis Quaid's "The Express."

1. Beverly Hills Chihuahua - $17.5 million
2. Quarantine - $14.2 million
3. Body of Lies - $13.1 million
4. Eagle Eye - $11.0 million
5. Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist - $6.5 million
6. The Express - $4.7 million
7. Nights in Rodanthe - $4.6 million
8. Appaloosa - $3.3 million
9. The Duchess - $3.3 million
10. City of Ember - $3.2 million

But Variety is also reporting that smaller movies are doing especially well with "Rachel Getting Married" and "Religulous" continuing to pull money in.
