“Red Tails” Soars At The Box Office: Claiming the #2 Spot Bringing In $19.1 Million

01/23/2012 • If you went to the movies this past weekend to support the movie "Red Tails" give your self a pat on the back for helping them score big box office numbers. "Red Tails", the George Lucas film that tells the story of the Tuskegee Airmen during World War II, did far better than expected. Lucas spent 20 years pursuing the project, and recently revealed he couldn't get any studio to finance the film because of an all-black cast. He finally decided to put up the money himself, and spent $58 million on the production budget and another $35 in distribution costs. Congrats to them!!! Click here to read more. more
