WEEKEND BOX OFFICE: Snow White tops the chart with 43MM, but that is below already low expectations, even worse than the live-action remake of Dumbo.  The B+ CinemaScore is also worse than any Disney live-action remake.  Oof.  Steven Soderberg's Black Bag places with 4.4MM on a 42 percent drop that's likely disappointing for a something with a 97 percent Tomatometer.  Captain America: Brave New World shows with 4.1MM on a 27 percent drop.  Below the fold, Mickey 17 continues to disappoint, and Barry Levinson's Alto Knights, with Robert De Niro returning to a gangster film, also looks to bomb.

THE WEEKEND STARTS HERE:

... with THE BYRDS!  Pretty much because I dig them as we turn into Spring (or Fall).  Let's start with a rare 1965 clip of their breakthrough smash cover of "Mr. Tambourine Man."  There are screaming girls, plus go-go dancers when they hit Shivaree for "All I Really Want to Do" and "Feel A Whole Lot Better."  Next up is a rare sync of "I Knew I'd Want You." There are even more dancers when they cover Buddy Holly's "Not Fade Away" for Shindig! on June 23, 1965, while I'm pretty sure that's Ed Wynn introducing "Chimes of Freedom."  You might recognize the voice introducing "Bells Of Rhymney" from poolside in August 1965 and "It Won't Be Wrong" from a corral in January 1966 on Where The Action Is.  BONUS:  Want a couple in color?  Here's "Turn, Turn, Turn!" and "Mr. Spaceman." DOUBLE BONUS: A rare 1967 sync of "Eight Miles High."
