The Carlo Verdone/Silvio Muccino duo flew quickly to first place in the box office after the first weekend totals of Il mio miglior nemico (lit. “My Best Enemy”), distributed by Filmauro.

The comedy, starring the two popular actors and directed by Verdone, grossed over €2m its first weekend (with a per screen average of €8,919), ousting the phenomenally successful Notte prima degli esami (lit. “The Night Before Exams”) by debut filmmaker Fausto Brizzi from the top spot. For three straight weeks, Brizzi’s film had enjoyed the highest box office gross and per screen average.
