The Notorious B.I.G biopic opened this weekend in limited release with a respectable $21 million dollars, but not without controversy. The film's star, rapper Jamal 'Gravy' Woolard, was in the house Friday night for a Greensboro, NC showing, but it got shut down before the movie started because somebody got shot twice in the lobby. In other Notorious opening night chatter, four guys got stabbed in a Brooklyn nightclub Saturday night at a party that was promoted as an 'official' Notorious movie after-party. Fox Searchlight, the film's distributor, has denied any connection with the club promotion.
