Box Office
Todd quote iconUnderstated and far more original than its Wes Anderson-lite impression might suggest, Ceremony is a strong debut that may not do great box office during its theatrical run, but will find a comfortable spot on the DVD shelf among the collections of folks who worship at the altar of Anderson, Whit Stillman and Noah Baumbach.
