Sense and Sensibility keeps Denmark lead with an FDI of 12.8

Local music film SORT is second before its November 26 opening on Unlock advance tickets.

  • Sense and Sensibility remains first in Denmark with an FDI of 12.8.
  • SORT is Denmark's top local production with Unlock advance tickets.
  • Lionheart is the market's sharpest riser, up 3.9 points in a week.

Sense and Sensibility remains the film Denmark most wants to see, holding first place with an FDI of 12.8 even as its lead tightened sharply over the week. The SEATmio Film Demand Index (FDI) is a film's share, in percent, of all tickets SEATmio tracks in a country, including tickets for the last 7 days of screenings and advance tickets for future screenings. Georgia Oakley's romance drama, from the director of Blue Jean and Little Bird, sold a rounded SEATmio estimate of Unlock tickets in the last 7 days and has Unlock advance tickets, but its score fell 10.8 points in a week.

The pressure now comes from a Danish film that has not opened yet. SORT, a local music film directed by Oliver Amir Zaza Celik Abu-Khader and starring Hans Philip Sery Lagui, Jens Ole Wowk McCoy and Zlatko Burić, is second with an FDI of 9.5 on Unlock advance tickets before its November 26 release. It has already moved ahead of What Lies Between Us, the local drama that was second 7 days ago and is now third with an FDI of 6.2 after falling 8.5 points.

What Lies Between Us still has meaningful current demand, with Unlock tickets sold in the last 7 days and Unlock advance tickets. Amalie Næsby Fick's drama stars Sidse Babett Knudsen and Sofie Gråbøl in the story of a suburban community shaken by an assault allegation and a mother trying to protect her son. Its slip from second to third shows how quickly advance demand for late-November releases is reshaping the Danish race.

The strongest gainer in the top five is another local production. Lionheart, Nagieb Khaja's crime thriller about a Copenhagen underworld figure trying to leave his old life behind, rose 3.9 points to an FDI of 4.2 and sits fifth with Unlock tickets sold in the last 7 days. Denmark also has The Great Diamond Hunt in eleventh with an FDI of 2.5, though the family adventure fell 2.6 points and dropped from fourth.

Among global franchises, Avengers: Doomsday is fourth with an FDI of 5.5, built on Unlock advance tickets ahead of its December 16 release. The Russo brothers' science-fiction action film, from the directors of Avengers: Endgame and Captain America: Civil War, leads Dune: Part Three, which has an FDI of 4.0 and Unlock advance tickets for the same date. Clayface, already in cinemas, slipped from third to seventh as its FDI fell 2.4 points.

Last weekend, from October 30 to November 1, Sense and Sensibility sold the most tickets with Unlock, down 7% from the previous weekend. What Lies Between Us followed with Unlock, also down 7%, while Løvehjerte opened in third with Unlock. Clayface rose 20% to Unlock, and The Great Diamond Hunt fell 21% to Unlock.

The next 21 days bring more advance competition. The Hunger Games: Sunrise on the Reaping, Francis Lawrence's return to Panem, opens November 19 with an FDI of 3.3 and Unlock advance tickets, just ahead of You Can See Everything at 3.0. George Michael: The Faith Tour opens November 5 with an FDI of 1.4, while Wildwood is the week's sharpest climber near the top, rising from 23rd to ninth and passing The Great Diamond Hunt, Verity and Spider-Man: Brand New Day among others.
