"   Photo: Zeitgeist Films  The highly-anticipated documentary Bill Cunningham New York, about the life of the legendary New York Times street style photographer, turned out to be more highly-anticipated than we even, well, anticipated.  The film began an exclusive limited two-week run at Film Forum in New York City March 16 and broke the theater&amp;#039;s record for most opening week box office revenue. The film pulled in $64,566\u2014over $10,000 more than the previous record holder, Control Room. And, remember Valentino: The Last Emperor? The equally buzzed about fashion doc, which opened at Film Forum almost exactly two years before Bill Cunningham, grossed only $39,106. Bill Cunningham may have appealed to a wider audience than the somewhat insidery, fashion-centric Valentino, but his numbers are still staggering. If one thing can be drawn from this, it&amp;#039;s that this movie is probably worth seeing and if you live in New York, this weekend is the time to do it. The film&amp;#039;s run at Film Forum ends Tuesday, and they just added additional show times. If you don&amp;#039;t, the film came out in L.A. and Washington today, and will be released around the country in April\u2014but you&amp;#039;ll miss out on the DKNY tribute popcorn bags.
