Moonlight – 4,200% Profit

With a menial budget of just $4 million, Moonlight stunned the world by cashing in a whopping $65.3 at the box office! It was considered a groundbreaking film about an African American boy dealing with life’s challenges in the vibrant city of Miami.

The movie’s main success came from the fact that it had honest performances and resonated with audiences. It was evident from the fact that when nominations for every single award show were announced, Moonlight swept the red carpet! And, of course, we all remember the Oscar goof up!
