Catherine Zeta-Jones won an Oscar five short years ago … and her latest film rocketed almost straight to DVD.
The invaluable Box Office Mojo says the film earned a whopping $5K in theaters.
“Death Defying Acts: Houdini’s Secret” casts Zeta-Jones as a con artist who falls for Houdini (Guy Pearce), the original escape artist.
So why did it sneak into only a few theaters before hitting DVD this week?
Check out my Donne Tempo review to find out.

Damn - I *love* Guy Pearce. Why can’t he be in a hit? His career is going the Jeff Bridges route…respect but rather too much obscurity.
