Hollywood Sights And Sounds By Robbin Coums This is the first of five articles on what the war in Europe has done to the American motion picture business. HOLLYWOOD. 2‘31.. March 3.—September, 1939. War. “The sky is faldng,” shuddered long-jittery Hollywood. “The picture business is done for,” wailed the industry’s Jobs. “Foreign revenues will be shot,” they moaned. Long keyed to a high emotional pitch by the sheer drama of its al, Hollywood broke down and wept — and then, its big scene nicely played out, turned immediately to a more practical consid- eration. Like all the rest of the world, Hollywood asked itself: “How does this calamity affect us — and what can we do about it?” In February, 1941 it was apparent that Hollywood had been affected by the war, and it is even more apparent tht Hollywood had done things about it. Dire predictions were free in those first weeks. Caviar ap- petites would have to learn the flavor of pork and beans. There would be no more million-dollar epics, no more fancy prices paid for stories and plays. So what happened? Hollywood tightened its belt — and turn- ed out an uusual number of outstanding films to make 1940 a good movie year, and a year paced significantly by the most expensive “epic” ever made, “Gone With the Wind.” This film’s career epitomized what was to beckon to Holly- wood as its “way out” — a spend-to-earn philosopohy aimed at during from the domestic market enough to compensate for for- eign losses, “Gone” cost $4,000,000 (before the war) and in a PERCY’S CAF ) STOP AT PERCY'S CAFE Breakfast, Dinner or Light Lunches ® DELICIOUS FOOD ® FOUNTAIN SERVICE © REFRESHMENTS year of pre-releases before tapping the mass market it grossed be- tween four and five times its cost. Nobody is making another “Gone,” but the principle — always good in the industry — is not forgotten. Top productions bring top profits. Hollywood is spending. ) But it has been spending with a difference — not for spend- ing’s sake, but for results. One executive puts it this way: Holly- wood used to condone its own extravagance by laying it to “this crazy business.” Making movies was not like any other busi- ness, they said. They were partly right — but making movies, like any other job, can be done two ways. Efficiently, or inef- ficiently. Hollywood has been trying to do it the first way — and it is succeeding.” Just how much the films have lost in foreign revenue is presently unclear, estimates ranging from as high as 47 per cent (in rare instances) to as low as 10 per cent. How much of this loss consists of war-frozen or politically-impounded- profits, with a chance to retrieve them later, is also uncertain, a factor to be determined by some financial wizard fmiliar with all the ramifica- tions of foreign quota laws and restrictions and their effects on the individual companies. However, most of Hollywood's major concerns showed greater net profit for 1940, a full war year, than for 1939, The big ex- ception was 20th Century-Fox (1939 profits over $4,000,000) which showed a deficit — due partly to foreign losses. Some of the new profits included foreign revenues the com- panies cannot take from the countries of origin, but all the lots including 20th are optimistic over 1941 prospects. | TOMORROW: Economy and-its-good effetts, . ., || | Witness the Honorable Simen | Hellenthal, judee of said Court,s .11‘ | the seal of said Court, hereunto af-| ‘[ixml_ on this 24th day of Febru-| ary, 1941, | (SEAL) | HAROLD H.
