Box Office
Despite Strait's super-star status in the music world, Pure Country only grossed just over $15 million at the box office. Although the expectations had been higher for his first major film role, this did not stop the soundtrack album from becoming the best-selling of Strait's career to date.

Famous quotes containing the words box and/or office:
“You can’t stand up against me. You haven’t got the strength. You’ll do as I say. I demand that you give up this man. I demand that you send him away.”
—Muriel Box (b. 1905)
“Woman was originally the inventor, the manufacturer, the provider. She has allowed one office after another gradually to slip from her hand, until she retains, with loose grasp, only the so-called housekeeping.... Having thus given up one by one the occupations which required knowledge of materials and processes, and skill in using them ... she rightly feels that what’s left is mere deadening drudgery.”
—Ellen Henrietta Swallow Richards (1842–1911)
