Signs tops US box office

Mel Gibson's new film Signs is still the number one film in America.

It stayed top of the box office during the Labour Day weekend with $16.5million.

My Big Fat Greek Wedding, which was produced by Tom Hanks, climbed to second place with $14.6million.

The film is on track to hit $100 million.

Rob Schwartz, head of distribution for IFC Films, which released the film, said: "Some of us were talking at the beginning about $20 or $25 million if we're lucky, but no-one ever dreamed of hitting $100 million."

Jennifer Aniston's new film The Good Girl entered the top ten at nine. It has only been released to a small number of screens.
