1. 'THE PASSION OF THE CHRIST‘ $611.9 million worldwide. Financed by Mel Gibson himself, without the safety net of a distributor in place, the film went on to become the highest-grossing indie of all time and the second-highest-grossing R-rated film of all time. 2. 'SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE' $377.9 million worldwide. Danny Boyle's eclectic adaptation of Vikas Swarup's novel Q & A garnered widespread critical acclaim, and went on to take home best picture, best director and best adapted screenplay at the 2009 Academy Awards. 3. 'MY BIG FAT GREEK WEDDING' $368.7 million worldwide. Despite the fact that it never held the No. 1 spot on the box office charts, the Joel Zwick-directed romantic comedy, which reportedly cost $6 million to make, proved to be one of the most profitable films of all time and the second-highest- grossing romantic comedy of all time. 4. 'SHAKESPEARE IN LOVE‘ $289.3 million worldwide. Preproduction started way back in 1991 when the project was under the Universal banner, but when rising star Julia Roberts dropped out of the lead role of Juliet, Uni balked and dropped the project. Once in turnaround the other majors didn't touch it, but Harvey Weinstein's Miramax swooped in, bankrolled it, and ended up with the best picture statuette at the 71st Academy Awards. 5. 'THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT‘ $248.6 million worldwide. Perhaps the most profitable film of all time, with a reported budget of $25,000, The Blair Witch Project popularized the now ubiquitous and hyperprofitable genre of "found footage" films.
