Beyoncé's 'Renaissance' tops box office with $21M

BEYONCÉ ruled the box office this weekend when her concert movie, 'Renaissance: A Film by Beyoncé,' opened on top with $21 million in North American ticket sales, estimates from AMC Theatres showed on Sunday.

The post-Thanksgiving, early December box office is notoriously slow, but 'Renaissance' defied the odds. Not accounting for inflation, it's the first time a film has opened over $20 million on this weekend in 20 years, or since the Tom Cruise starrer 'The Last Samurai.'
