Faith-based film distributor Pure Flix found success with its anti-abortion film “Unplanned,” which earned an opening weekend of $6.1 million, double the amount projected by box office trackers.
Released on 1,059 screens, the film tells the true story of Abby Johnson, a former Planned Parenthood clinic director who left the organization and became a pro-life activist after witnessing an abortion. It was partially financed by My Pillow founder Mike Lindell, a born again Christian and Donald Trump supporter.
