‘Hansel and Gretel’ box office

This weekend, “Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters” hunted down the No. 1 spot at the box office with $19 million from 3,372 theaters. Although “Hansel and Gretel” can hardly be called a fairy-tale success at this point, it proved far more bewitching than fellow newcomers “Parker” and “Movie 43,” which were left with only bread crumbs in their sad debut frame.
