Alice Tops Box Office For Second Week

Alice in Wonderland

Alice in Wonderland put in another first-class performance, grossing £7.3m in its second weekend in the UK. The Disney and Tim Burton 3D fantasy tale has already topped $200m in North America and more than $420m worldwide. Its success has also contributed to weekend earnings figures up 42% on the same weekend last year.
