]» T I.VETEEN hundred fUty-eight Ls verj' 

1^ apt to go down in the histor>- of the 

* " niotion picture industry as the year 

that separated the men from the boys, 

which divorcement is likely to obtain not 

oiily as concerns those who manufacture, 

distribute and exhibit theatrical screen 

fare but, additionally, those intrepid souls 

—or should they be called foolhardy? 

who underUke to prognosticate what the 

Just-starting annum has in store for the 

trade. 

As was indicated in this space Just 

twelve months ago. this business of trying 

to document what is to be expected of 

Holl>'wood in the way of production is 

becoming an increasingly difficult chore— 

and that goes in spades this year. Many, 

and .somewhat ommous. are the new developments 

that inject additional hazards 

into attempts to blueprint the production 

center's 

planning. 

OPINIONS ON FUTURE V.ARY 

Item: The poles-apart differences of 

opinions regarding the future fate of 

filmdom's factories. On one hand, there 

are doleful predictions, such as the one 

which was recently made by Chicago exhibitor 

Edwin Silverman that within six 

months every Hollywood studio, save one. 

would be closed. While the Silvermanian 

prophecy of gloom— and others of similar 

pessimLsm—generated quick and loud wails 

of protest, denial or indignation from 

many film capital spokesmen, none could 

be so ostrich-like as to deny that there 

was some basis of reason for them. As 

1957 drew to a close, several of the studios, 

breaking out in rashes of the periodical 

economy moves, tightened their respective 

belts to the near-strangulation point. In 

some instances the trimming of payrolls 

and future production plans seemed to be 

inexplicably drastic and difficult to justify 

in the face of overall revenues and earnings 

suiements. 

Item: The threat—or possibly it should 

be called the uncertainty— that is being 

ixjscd by the strides that have been and 

are being made toward nationwide culmination 

by pay-a.s-you-view television. 

Varied, indeed, are opinions in Hollywood 

as to the advLsabllily and success chances 

of pay video. Regardless of whether viewpoints 

are on the pro or con sides, all 

agree on one point, namely: that at this 

stage In Its drive toward Ijccomlng a substantial 

actuality, no one can foresee what 

effects It is going, ultimately, to have on 

ihi- production of films for established 

thmtrical consumption.

sustain the theatre-going habits of the 

millions who still have It and probably rekindle 

that habit in many of those who 

have lost it. 

Perhaps the most potent factor entering 

into the drawing of such conclusion is 

the fact that many of the producers have 

already announced their plans for the year. 

Whether these announcements—or repetitions 

thereof in those cases where they 

have l)een previously made—were stimulated 

by the above-mentioned dispensing 

of dejection, or whether the fact that they 

followed closely upon the heels thereof 

was pure happenstance is of little importance. 

They add up to one thing: If they 

are carried to conclusion or anywhere 

close thereto—there certainly cannot be 

a widespread shuttering of the film foundries. 

Take, for example, 20th Centui-y-Fox. 

From its Westwood studio came concrete 

evidence of the company's confidence in 

the future outlook for the film industry 

with definite word that for 1958 It is increasing 

its previously-announced schedule 

of 60 releases to a revi.sed total of 65, and 

that an additional $5,000,000 has been 

allocated to bring the budget total up to 

an unprecedented $65,000,000. Of the total 

65 pictures. 28 will be provided by Regal 

Films. 20th-Fox subsidiary headed by 

Robert Lippert. which lists "The Ply." 

a science-horror thriller, and a western 

"Blood Arrow." as its top contenders in 

the upcoming year. Production chief 

Buddy Adler has announced 18 scripts 

already completed at the Westwood lot, 

and another 20 In work, with excitement 

running high anent "Fraulein." "The 

Young Lions." "Ten North Frederick" and 

"The Inn of the Sixth Happiness,' amoni? 

others. 

OPTUVnSM AT COLUMBIA 

Columbia is backiiig up its optimistic 

viewTx>int as concerns the future for the 

picture business with a 1958 production 

slate of at least 40 pictures, mast of which 

are rated as "A" or "Double A" features. 

Aside from the Gower Street studio bringing 

an imposing list of films adapted from 

best-.selling novels and stage plays 

and 'Bell, Book and 

Candle." to name two) to the screen, it 

anticipated that Sam Katzman's Clover 

is 

Productions will do a minimum of 12 pictures 

for Columbia; Charles Schneer. 

through Mornlngslde Productions, will 

make at least two, and Carl Foreman 

Productions will deliver one. Also up for 

Columbia releiuse will be pictures from 

Carlos Ponti Productions. Dino De Laulentlls 

Productions and Warwick Productions, 

with John and James Wooll slated 

to produce a film under the Romulu.s biin- 

Wamer Bros, will welcome In the new 

year with lu biggest production lineup in 

several years. Including a program of top 

features. Jack L Warner, pro.sident of 

the Burbank studio, recently fortified his 

staunch faith In the well-being of the 

Industry with the purchft.se of three 

literary pro|)ertles— "Ice PiUuce." "Dftik 

at the Top of the Stairs." "In a Summer

when the time comes to releu.se the fliinshlp 

pictures on their respective 1958 

slates. Just how good the pictures are 

when finished, how Iohk will be their final 

runnhiK time nnd wha sums they 

ultimately cost will undoubtedly determine, 

as It hius In the past, what features will be

and file -showhouses can exhibit "Cliiemlracle 

Adventure. " or any other picture 

made In the new technique. Its advent 

will prove of Interest to theatremen everywhere. 

If for no other rea.son than Its indicative 

bearings on things to come. 

LIST THE BIG ONES 

Other forthcoming films that seem 

probables for road-showing are George 

Sidney's fllmlzation of MacKlnlay Kantor's 

best-seller, "Ander.sonville," for Columbia 

release: MGM's remake of the 

all-time classic, "Ben Hur," which Sam 

Zimbalist will produce and William Wyler 

direct, starring Burt Lancaster; 20th 

Centui-y-Poxs screen version of Rodgers 

and Hammerstein's musical, "South 

Pacific," produced by Buddy Adler, directed 

by Joshua Logan, and starring 

Mitzi Gaynor and Ro.s.sano Brazzi: and 

Warner Bros.' "The Miracle," to be 

made in the Cinemiracle medium with 

Irving Rapper directing the Max Reinhardt-Karl 

VoUmoeller play. 

No survey of productional trends and or 

prospects of upcoming product would be 

complete without some reference to the 

so-called package deals that during the 

past year have proven a bread-and-butter 

life-saver for so many exhibitors, most 

those who require a steady flow 

especially 

of modestly-priced features to operate 

their theatres in which several program 

changes a week constitute standard 

modus operandi. The profitable market 

these combo bookings have found and the 

product announcements of tho.se outfits 

that specialize in making them leave no 

doubt that they will supply an even greater 

proportion of 1958's available celluloid. 

Many and widely-varied statistics have 

been finding their way into print to 

establish the fact that an arrestingly high 

percentage of Hollywood's current output 

is stemming from independent producers. 

As the proportion of pictures from such 

freelance sources has increased, so has 

gi-own the ambiguity of the designation. 

There are the more-orthodox, dyed-inthe-wool, 

self-financed independents .such 

as Hal Wallis. Samuel Goldwyn, Hecht- 

Hill-Lancaster, Edward Small and several 

othei-s. 

BUMPER CROP OF NEWCOMERS 

Then, there is the recent and 

bumper crop of newcomers to the independent 

pastures, the men who normally 

would be salaried producers on major 

studio payrolls, but. because of complicated 

financial and tax ramifications, have hung 

out their own shingles and are making or 

planning films on any one of innumerable 

profit-sharing bases. But, no matter how 

loosely the term independent producer is 

utilized, one thing is certain—to wit: that 

the same high percentage of the programs 

of all distributors will continue to be made 

by them. 

As regards the more standardized ingredients 

that enter into a symposium of 

a year's forthcoming prixiuct iliicomcdie.s, 

mu.slcalii. problem play.s. rlc 

they apparently will be on Ur- bu' incs.âs-iLsual

1W1.1KVKR before. Those Iwo words have 

Lit'fii 

Pn| utilized In practically every 

article dealing with predictions (or 

a new year since 

trade papers were born. 

In the past, you have read that never before 

were the prospects so bright: never 

before ha-s the Industry stood on the 

threshold of such prosperity; never before 

has the lineup of good pictures looked 

.so promising; never before— never before. 

Most of the never befores have been accurate: 

the events bore out the forecasts. 

And they will hold true for 1958, provided 

the right decisions are made. So, it may 

be part of wisdom to state that this year 

must be a year of decision, as never before. 

YEARS OF MANY DECISIONS 

Not so many years ago an exhibitor's 

big decision for the new year might have 

been whether to build a new theatre or 

modernize his existing one. Around 1928— 

30 years ago— he might have wrestled 

with the decision of whether to wire his 

theatre for sound or take a chance that 

the talkies were a passing fad. More recently, 

he had to decide whether to equip 

for 3-D and, at>out the same time, for 

Cinemascope. The era of polarized glasses 

didn't last, but how was the exhibitor to 

know. The same quick demise might have 

happened to the aspect ratio of 2.55-1. 

Even Spyros Skouras could have been 

wrong, though he wasn't. 

Today, both exhibition and productiondistribution 

are facing their greatest year 

of decision as—here we go again—never 

before. The decisions that must be made 

in 1958 could spell the difference between 

progress and collapse of a great industry. 

RETAIN POST-1948 FILMS 

Let's take production-distribution first. 

A number of exhibitors, circuit and independent, 

were asked what they considered 

the most important decision which 

Hollywood, or Hollywood's home offices, 

must make this year. The answers were 

practically unanimous: Keep the post- 

1948 backlogs of pictures off of the television 

.screens. One of the most important 

circuit executives in the business was 

vociferous in stating that that decision 

was a "must," adding that all other matters 

were of much less importance. If the 

post-1948 product is released to television, 

he said, "it will mean curtains for a big 

majority of theatres." He further contended 

that for every dollar one company 

received from TV sales, it lost $3 in inventory. 

An independent exhibitor echoed the 

circuit chief's opinion and added, "The 

distributors must realize that they are 

committing suicide when they make their 

product available to television." He said, 

"Let television take care of itself." 

True, it must be very challenging for a 

BOXOFFICE 

company to turn down mllUon.i of dolljui 

for pictures that are gathering dust In the 

vault.s But It Is a decUlon that must be 

made. ParUally blaming televUlon for 

the pre.sent status of theatre buslnesH. Leo 

Wolcott. head of Allled's lowa-NebrajiIca 

unit, recently said that if the small, gra-wrooU 

theatres, the "farm .lystem of motion 

picture patrons, are allowed to wither 

" 

and die . . this entire once-great motion 

picture industry must surely also die and 

rot Into oblivion. He .said the bigger situations 

were little, if any. better off, and 

"with the .smaller roots and branches dead 

or dying, the larger ones are next 

And foremost in Industry forums the.se 

days Is the discussion of orderly releasing 

of top product In exhibitor circles, particularly, 

the even flow of good pictures 

throughout a 12-month period is considered 

an absolute necessity toward maintaining 

a healthy boxoffice. According to 

Edward L. Hyman. vice-president of AB- 

PT Inc. who has been a prime mover in 

persuading film distributors to release top 

pictures in every .season of the year, most 

of the companies have agreed to such a 

practice. The big decisions for 1958 will 

come in the maintenance of the proposed 

orderly releasing program, and whether 

exhibitors, given a long-range scheduling 

of important pictures, will do the top 

showmarLship job required to sell pictures 

on a steady 12-month basis. 

VITAL EXHIBITION PROBLEMS 

So much for production-distribution. 

What about exhibition? Yes, plenty of 

vital decisions must be made this year by 

the men who operate the nation's theatres. 

One, which at this writing appears 

to be remote and inconsequential, concerns 

an innovation which should not be 

taken lightly. And that is toll television 

and its application to theatre operation. 

It's a bromide to say that they laughed 

at Fulton's steamboat. The prospects of 

talkmg pictures were smoldering long before 

that radical departure from the silent 

screen burst Into the flame of public acceptability, 

but the diehards. those who 

claimed that silent pictures never would 

be supplanted, woke up one day and discovered 

it was a case of either or else. 

The Bartlesville cable theatre project, perhaps. 

ha.sn't set the amusement world upside 

down but it has its foot in the door. 

Coming along, and rapidly so. are Telemeter. 

Skiatron and Selectivision. The 

backers thereof want the systems to be 

controlled and operated by exhibitors, not 

by outsiders. And so. many a theatre 

owner is asking himself the question ol 

whether to pick up a franchise for one of 

the systems, as a protection, or laugh it 

all off as "a Fulton's folly." 

Some of the veterans and pioneers in 

this business claim that national, and even 

universal, acceptance of a form of Bartlesville's 

home theatre process is "inevitable." 

If so. some verj- vital decisions 

are going to have to be made And the decisions 

must be made this year 

Despite the poMible new horlion* of exhibition, 

the theatre will jurvlve. either lu 

an adjunct or the main event That point 

has never been denied, even by the mtjiit 

rabid proponenu of toll TV Therefore 

exhibition mu«t put up a .solid front— 

front of unity, more solid than ever before. 

The iMue stemming from the clamor 

for a consolidation of Allied SUtes Am n 

and Theatre Owners of America must 

and probably will be. decided this year 

It Is Ls reliably reported that there an 

undercurrent in favor of a merger among 

(Xjwerful Influences in both camps and 

that the hour of decision is not far off 

Such a fusion, according to the advocates. 

will benefit all exhibitors. 

CLOSER ON ARBITRATION 

The materialization of an equitable arbitration 

system Ls a decision that rests 

In the laps of both exhibition and distribution. 

On some points, the two segmenu 

are not In agreement But a year 

ago they were poles apart, now they are 

reaching an equator. 

The decisions that are expected to come 

out of the arbitration conferences should 

be of far-reaching importance and conceivably 

could solve many of the bones 

of contention over which lx)th factions 

are growling. Documents and formulae 

of a similar nature never have l)een perfect 

In the first writing, but if the upcoming 

draft opens the door, reasonably, 

to better trade practices. It will be. to use 

a time-worn expression, a step In the 

right direction, and the decision should 

be to adopt it and try to make improvements 

later. 

Perhaps the most important decision is 

not to get panicky. Old-timers in this 

business know from experience that the 

industry has hit the skids before, but by 

combining hard work with the protective 

arm of Providence, it always has come 

back stronger than ever. It is recalled 

that, in 1938. picture business was so bad 

that an emergency meeting was held in 

New York and exhibitors from all parts 

of the country gathered to determine 

what they should do about it A lot of 

fortunes have been made m exhibition 

since those dark days. 

HIGH INVESTMENT P»)TENTIAI. 

In February of last year. Arnold Bernhard 

& Co.. investment advisers, based on 

its Value Line investment survey, predicted 

a prosperous current fiscal year, 

followed by four or five years of steadily 

mcreasing annual Income for the motion 

picture industry. While the average gam 

for all stocks for the next three to five 

years were listed by the survey at 28 per 

cent, amusement Industry stocks were 

given an appreciation potential In that 

period of 

56 per cent. 

While the past year could not be considered 

prosperous on the whole for motion 

pictures, these investment advisers 

usually are pretty accurate on the long 

pull.

writer or speaker was trying to advance. 

However, a study of the results 

in BOXOFFICE BAROMETER'S 

21st annual All- American Screen 

Favorites poll makes one point 

strongly: regardless of who makes 

up the audience, a picture which 

catches the public fancy helps build 

the popularity of its star; equally, a 

star who has been built by a string 

of popular pictures can weather a 

period of inactivity with little loss of 

popularity. 

The outstanding example of this 

among the male stars is Gary Grant 

who was elevated to the number 

three position, after several years of 

"semi-retirement," on the strength of 

"An Affair to Remember " "'The 

Pride and the Passion," added to the 

previous year's ""To Gatch a Thief." 

William Holden, last year's leading 

male star, placed second in the current 

poll with only one picture, ""Toward 

the Unknown," to his credit 

during the past several months. He 

spent most of the past year abroad, 

first in Geylon for "Bridge on the 

River Kwai" and then in Britain for 

"The Key" with Sophia Loren. 

Almost as dramatic as Grant's return 

to favor was the reappearance 

of Ingrid Bergman among the most 

popular feminine stars as the result 

of one picture, "Anastasia, ' first 

American film in eight years. Her 

last previous appearance in the 

select circle was in 1949. 

The emergence of Rock Hudson in 

the top male spot in the balloting, 

although representing a sharp rise 

from his tenth place position among 

the men in the previous poll, actually 

is a story of steady progress over the 

past five years until the impact of 

"Giant," in 1956, brought him to the 

forefront of public attention. He first

appeared on the poll in 1955 among 

the runners-up. In 1956, he also 

gained respect for his work in 

"Written on the Wind" and, in 1957, 

appeared in "Battle Hymn" and 

'"Something of Value," both of which 

achieved top-hit status, with grosses 

of 166 per cent and 132 per cent, 

respectively. Hudson gained an additional 

honor when he was named 

Star of the Year by the Theatre 

Owners of America at their Miami 

convention. 

Frank Sinatra, nosed out of third 

and into fourth by Gary Grant, may 

have suffered a bit from timing insofar 

as the balloting is concerned, for 

few of the voters had seen his 

widely-acclaimed performance in 

"Pal Joey the time they marked 

It their ballots. might be noted here 

that, curiously, Sinatra's ups and 

downs in television seem to have 

little bearing on his stature as a 

motion picture personality. 

Gary Gooper, the perennial pin-up 

of the average exhibitor, advanced 

from sixth to fifth place among the 

men, largely on the boxoffice 

potency of "Friendly Persuasion" 

which played many return engagements 

the past year. 

Marlon Brando's long sojourn in 

lapan during the making of "Sayonara" 

appears to have cost him a 

temporary setback in popularity, 

reflected in his slide to sixth place 

among the men as against second 

place the year before. As in

Sinatra's case, Brando's performance 

in "Sayonara." already nailed 

by critics, was seen too late to be 

reflected in the balloting. 

James Stewart, who has been 

among the top male stars each year 

since 1947, was voted into the 

seventh position after placing fifth 

last year. Stewart is a prime example 

of a star with a solid following whose 

career pattern has been singularly 

free of sharp ups and downs. Right 

behind him in the voting is Burt 

Lancaster in eighth place, after placing 

seventh last year. Next is Glenn 

Ford, ninth place holder, who was 

eighth last year. 

In tenth place is a newcomer to 

the top echelon Yul Brynner— who 

rose to the inner circle from last 

year's runner-up list on the strength 

" 

of "The Ten Gommandments a 

strong follow-up to the previous 

seasons "The King and I" and 

"'Anastasia.' Brynner, who is soon 

to be seen in "The Buccaneer " and 

"The Brothers Karama20v, ' continues 

to meet with a bearish attitude 

on the part of exhibitors, although 

the critics and general public 

already have taken him to their 

hearts. 

Rounding out the top 12 male stars 

are two redoubtables Clark Gable 

and John Wayne. Gable, with "Band 

of Angels' to his credit, held his 1 1th 

place perch of the year before, while 

Wayne, a persistent favorite with

exhibitors, fared less favorably at 

the hands of critics as the result of 

"let Pilot" and "The Wings of 

Eagles," though both attained tophit 

status with grosses of 173 per 

cent and 134 per cent, respectively. 

Among the top 12 feminine stars, 

the first and second choices remain 

the same as last year—Kim Novak 

and Doris Day, in that order. They 

ran neck and neck right down to the 

final wire, with Miss Novak winning 

by a slim margin and Miss Day remaining 

the big favorite with the 

exhibitor voters. Each of the girls 

was seen in only one film during the 

period covered in the balloting, Miss 

' 

Novak in "Jeanne Eagles Miss 

' 

Day in "The Pajama Game. Both 

these pictures made the BAROM- 

ETER top-hit category, with an 

overall gross rating of 164 per cent 

and 175 per cent, respectively. 

A star whose position improved 

materially the past year is Deborah 

Kerr, who rose to third from fifth 

spot the year before. She appeared 

in two pictures, both of which were 

top hits — "Heaven Knows, Mr. 

Allison" scoring 191 per cent and 

"An Affair to Remember" scoring 

165 per cent. 

In fourth place is Elizabeth Taylor, 

who moved up from seventh place 

on the strength of "Giant," the same 

picture that provided the final push 

for Rock Hudson. "Raintree County," 

which came too late to be considered 

in the voting, is expected 

further to enhance Miss Taylor's 

popularity.

two distinct types of audience prefor 

ence. Miss Hepburn, seen the post 

year in "Funny Face" and "Love in 

the Afternoon," is a favorite in the 

larger situations and with the 

sophisticates, while Miss Reynolds' 

popularity is at an all-time high with 

medium and small situation exhibitors 

and with the "family-type" audiences. 

The lasting appeal of 

" 

Tammy and the Bachelor, which 

has brought it back for one and 

sometimes two return engagements 

in theatres all over the country, has 

given new life to another Reynolds 

film of the season before, "The Tender 

Trap, in which she played op- 

" 

posite Sinatra. This film, loo, has 

been booked for return engagements 

in indoor and drive-in situations, 

and through this added exposure 

has won Miss Reynolds an 

additional following. 

June Allyson, in seventh place, 

advanced one notch from her eighth 

place standing last year. In many 

respects her popularity parallels 

that of James Stewart in that she is 

a consistent winner year after year, 

the current balloting representing 

her ninth consecutive appearance in 

the charmed circle of top favorites. 

Her pictures the post year have included 

"Interlude" and "My Man 

Godfrey." 

Ingrid Bergman's reappearance 

on the list of top favorites has already 

been noted and, from all indications, 

she will be seen in additional 

American-made films in the 

coming months which should make 

her popularity even greater with 

critics and mass-appeal audiences 

alike. 

Ava Gardner, seen the past year 

in two films, "The Little Hut" and 

"The Sun Also Rises," rose from 12th 

to ninth among feminine stars 

Susan Hayward, considered by critics 

to have been wasted in "Top 

Secret Affair," which failed to make 

the top-hit category, slipped from 

fourth spot to 10th, but garnered 

past 

many votes on the strength of 

performances and the promise of 

new ones to come. A similar fate 

befell Marilyn Monroe in the current 

returns. Her only showcase, 'The 

Prince and the Showgirl," made the 

top-hit category with 120 per cent, 

but proved hard to sell in medium 

and small situations. 

Appearing for the first time among 

the top 12 women stars is Dorothy 

Malone, who won the 1956 support 

ing role Oscar for '"Written on the 

Wind" and was seen the past year 

in "Man of a Thousand Faces," "Tip 

on a Dead Jockey," and "Quantez 

A number of new personalities 

found spots on the runners-up lists 

in the current balloting, and, particularly 

among the men, several 

long-established actors — Fred Astaire, 

David Niven and Anthony 

Quinn among others—came to new 

prominence during the year 

The top contenders, Pat Boone 

and Eva Marie Saint, each showed 

sufficient strength to crowd the top 

favorites list This vote of confidence 

m Boone is doubly noteworthy when 

it is considered that his only showcase 

at the time of the voting was 

Bernordine ' picture, how 

ever, proved to be a sleeper. " with 

a boxoffice rating of 159 per centwell 

in the top-hit category 

On the other hand. Elvis Presley, 

with three top-hit pictures under his 

belt, still is facing a stone wall as 

far as the cntics are concerned, and 

even the exhibitors consider him 

something of a hot potato on whom 

they may bum their fingers. On 

Presley's side are the boxoffice 

scores: "Love Me Tender "—196 per 

cent; "Loving You' — 187 per cent, 

and "Jailhouse Rock"— 177 per cent 

Three extremely successful pictures 

would seem to indicate that his audience 

appeal is more than a ninedays' 

wonder. 

Feminine newcomers include Sophia 

Loren, Jayne Mansfield, Joan

MOVIEGOERS who enjoy good shorts 

as the appetizer for their feature 

films — and their name is still 

legion despite the preponderance of 

double-bill programs which the teenage 

audience so often demands—will, once 

again, either be wafted to the world's 

faraway places via scenic or travel shorts 

or be amused by the 6 and 7-minute cartoons 

during 1958. 

The days of the live-action two-reel 

comedies, which had their heyday in the 

silent era of Charlie Chaplin. Mack Sennett 

and Keystone Comedies, and the 

early talkie years, via Laurel and Hardy, 

Clark and McCuUough and other famous 

slapstick teams, are practically over. Only 

Columbia's The Three Stooges, are still 

active and report has It that the longpopular 

trio will be making their last 

two-reelers in 1958. However, enough of 

these comedies, produced and directed by 

Jules White, have been completed to continue 

release through 1958. With Warner 

' 

Bros McDoakes two-reelers also discontinued, 

the only other comedy .short,s 

using live actors released were one starring 

Muriel Landers for Columbia and 

the .same company's long-running Screen 

Snapshots, which show famous Hollywood 

stars at parties and other functions. This 

Ralph Staub series is now being filmed 

In color, for the first time, and carries a 

"Gue.ss Who" feature for movie patrons 

to win a trip to Hollywood for identifying 

disguised movie stars. 

The changes in the scenic-travel shorts 

field for 1957 included the dropping of 

Paramount's Vi-staVision Specials in 

Technicolor but 20th Century-Fox is continuing 

its outstanding one-reel Cinema- 

Scope photographic excursion.? to faraway 

places: Warner Bros, has a series of 

two-reel Scope Gems, including "Alpine 

Glory" and "Under Carlb Skies"; Universal-International 

had Its series of onereel 

Color Parade scenic .shorts, as well as 

two-reel .scenic specials, and Columbia 

had its Musical Travelarks which .showed 

"The Wonders of Manhattan," "The Wonders 

of Washington, D. C." and "The 

Wonders of New Orleans," a marvelous 

way to see America from your theatre 

seat. 

In connection with Columbia's promotion 

contest on "The Wonders of Manhattan," 

W. C. Sliver, Ml.ssouri exhibitor 

who runs the small-town Silver Theatre. 

Cameron, Mo., told the tradepress In New 

York that "Motion picture short subjects 

are Important Ijecnusc they keep customers 

coming back to your theatre " 

Sliver mentioned that he felt cheated 

when he attended another .^mull-town 

theatre, which started the feature Immcdlotoly

112 Features in Hit' Class 

Scoring 120% or More 

LIKE 

the rumor about Mcffk Twain which 

brought forth his famous quip, the demise 

of the motion picture industry seems to 

have been greatly exaggerated. With 112 

feature hits for the 1956-57 season (those grossing 

120 per cent or more), it is, obviously, a 

pretty live corpse. This counts as single units 

each of five combinations. For the previous 

season, BAROMETER reported 101 features in 

the hit category, which was a rise of 14 over 

the season before. 

Surveying the year's releases and their boxoffice 

reception, "The Ten Commandments" 

understandably is at the top of the hit list. 

This Biblical super-spectacle which has 

climaxed Cecil B. DeMille's lifetime efforts, will 

probably still be playing 25 years from now to 

interested audiences. It is a graphic example 

of what modern screen techniques can produce 

for distribution throughout the world. 

Close behind "The Ten Commandments" is 

"Giant." To see either of these pictures is an 

experience that adds emotional depth to the 

most insensitive. These and other pictures that 

scored high boxoffice marks prove beyond a 

doubt that vast numbers of people still are 

willing to pay for the privilege of seeing good 

motion pictures in theatres. 

"Around the World in 80 Days" merits 

special mention. It is one of those delightful 

bits of entertainment that is like an original art 

object, possessing a distinctive quality of its 

own which is recognized as such and brings 

heartening audience response. It is doing top 

business However, because of the extraordinary 

roadshow policy under which it has been 

shown to date in a limited number of engagements, 

its grossing average will not be reported 

until next year when it will go into more 

general release. 

In the combo field, boxoffice phenomenon of the

and owners of the 

mouon picture theatres in the U3. 

and Canada continued during 1957 

with alertness and vigor to promote their 

attractions despite occasional ripples of 

controversy and gloom that disturbed 

the lndustr>'. BOXOPFICE Shou-mandiser. 

In Its 313 pages publLshed dunng the year. 

carried nearly 8.000 reports on showmanship 

executed in behalf of indoor theatres 

and drive-ins from Fairbanks. Alaska, to 

Key West. Fla , and San Francisco to 

Charlottetown. Phillipines. 

In addition there were a few campaigns 

from exhibitors In England, South Africa 

and Mexico. 

SEEK NEW APPROACHES 

Headlines through the year indicated 

that many theatremen intensified their 

efforts to find the answer to increased attendance 

by seeking fresh approaches in 

their ads. lobby and front displays and an 

extra seUlng push all along the line. 

The ShowmandLser pages contained 

many examples of showmen who have 

tried to tailor promotions to their neighborhoods 

by eliminating hackneyed, overused 

copy and time-worn appeals, thus 

conveying to potential customers the 

s|jecial appeal of the film. 

Others also have sought out new means 

to reach the buying public. The Fox 

Midwest circuit, developing an idea by 

Fred Souttar, vice-president and division 

manager, prepared a variable format 

"Movie Chatter" tabloid which featured 

coming attraction ads by distributors and 

Hollywood news copy, for distribution 

hoase-to-house or as a supplement in the 

local Sunday newspaper. 

Circuits, as a rule, worked harder on 

planned promotions, giving individual 

managers more time. acces.sorles and Ideas 

to work up holiday promotions, kiddy show 

scries. Christmas rentals and the like. 

Commonwealth Theatres of Kansas City 

look all Its managers on an airplane trip 

f) Hollywood as a kickoff in a circuit-wide 

attendance-building campaign extending 

through the last several months of the 

year In^tltutlonal copy in newspaper ads. 

and Npeclal shows such as Thank You

Emil Bernstecker of Florida State Theatres 

in Jacksonville arranged with the 

Florida Times-Union there a six-page section 

featuring the industry slogan and 

copy heralding motion picture entertainment 

that would be seen locally. 

Evidence of the vigor and sincerity of 

1957 showmanship was the headline on 

an article describing the views of Henry 

Plltt. president of Paramount Gulf Theatres 

of New Orleans, on the importance 

of "that extra push." It was. "That Little 

Extra Push Makes a Whale of a Boxofflce

and exjject to have it pull in the customers

newspaper and the title on the marquee. 

summed up Plltt. 

A very succe.ssful studio promotion came 

from Warner Bros. In behalf of Its horror 

offerings. "The Curse of Frankenstein" 

and "X the Unknown." Tlie films, starting 

with premieres In San Diego and New 

York City, were given a 24-hour continuous 

opening, advertised as a "Horror-A-Thon," 

running from midnight to midnight, wltli 

each showing being .sold us n Midnight

Cliff Knoll, manager of 

the State Theatre, 

Sioux Falls, S. D.. and his assistant 

Ethel Spicer bravely staged a slumber 

party for more than 100 teenage girls, who 

gab-fested. drank 250 bottles of pop, ate 

four bu.shels of popcorn, catnapped and 

previewed "The Pajama Game" to sell 

the picture in his 

town. 

J. M. "Jack" Mahon. manager of the 

Strand and Orpheum in Prince Albert. 

Sask.. sliowed true showmanship mettle 

in booking "Satellite in the Sky" and selling 

it immediately after the Russian Sputnik 

I launching. Mahon used his own 

"ham" radio equipment to record the 

Sputnik "beeps." then wove his campaign 

around the recording with appropriate 

copy tied in. 

A REAL-LIFE GI>'EAWAY

a 

^tronaer êii for ôrei^n îlmd 

By NATHAN COHEN 

IN 

1958 the OS exhibitors wUl get more 

of a pitch lor playing time by overseas 

producers than ever before, and 

they will have a better selection of pictures 

from which to choose. Producers, both In 

England and In the countries producing 

films in languages other than English. 

have learned a great deal in the last few 

years about the kind of pictures American 

exhibitors are prepared to buy, and the 

kind of movie imports the US. fllmgoers 

are willing to pay for. And, they have 

guided themselves accordingly in mapping 

their productions for the market here. 

There are many ways in 

which the foreign 

producers will try to sell the U.S. 

exhibitors on giving a share of their 

screen time the imports. The Rank 

to 

Organization, having established a nationwide 

dLstribution system in 1937. is ready 

to move ahead on an exploitation program 

which will take British .stars on 

personal appearance tours to many sections 

of the country. The Japane.se are 

bringing their stars over, too. 

The French, who set up the French Film 

Office in 1957, have taken a big step forward 

in stimulating interest in the Gaelic 

brand of filmmaking. As they may have 

anticipated, it was the much-publicized 

"sex kitten" Brlgltte Bardot who provided 

the newsworthy punch which scored with 

columns of photo.s and copy in U.S. news 

and magazine pages about French moviemaking. 

In 1958, the French expect to 

coniiolldate their gains with at least a 

dozen Important pictures. 

The German film Industry, after many 

postwar years of fruitless attempts to 

crack the market here—principally because 

the pictures were not geared for 

American audiences, and the fact that 

adequate dLstribution facilities were not 

provided— has Just finished its best and 

most successful year In the United States 

since 1933 The Germans have established 

a promotional organization. United German 

Film Ent4:'rprlses, with Munio Podhorzcr 

as president, and are prepared to 

go after playdates on a larger scale than 

It will be these three, the Brttlsh, the 

French and the Germann, who will be 

making the top bid for playing time The 

Italluns, who In the postwar years, took the 

lead In establishing an American .sales 

organlzntlon. will have fewer pictures for

of them will have the pfjwerhouse names 

of Anna Mttgnanl and Sophia Loren for 

lioxofrice draw.

A great deal will dei>end on the recpi)tlon 

recilved by u sexti-l of 

films nhown ut tin- 

.second annual Japanese Film Week held 

In January at the Museum of Modem Art 

in New York. Lake the Rank Organization, 

the Japanese industry thinks personal 

appearances of foreign stars are 

essential to stimulatmg publicity, and a 

half dozen of the country's most beautiful 

actresses have been brought here, both 

to 

be present at the Film Festival and to 

assist in other promotional activities. 

As for film imports from other countries, 

the supply will not be overwhelming. A 

Danish film, "Ordet. ' will be handled by 

Kingsley-International, and the Rank 

Film Distributors of America will release 

a Swedish feature, "Smiles of a Summer 

Night," with Harriet Andersson, Ulla Jacobson 

and Eva Dahlbeck. From the coproduction 

field, there will be a French- 

Spanish effort, "The Lovemaker." starring 

the American actress, Betsy Blair, and an 

Italo-Spanish feature, "The Big Whoosh," 

starring Valentina Cortesa and Edmund 

Gwenn, both of which will be handled by 

Trans-Lux Film Distributing Co. 

Looking at the prospects for foreignproduced 

product in 1958, the outlook by 

countries shapes up as follows: 

ENGLAND 

By count of pictures already completed, 

under way and definitely set to go before 

the cameras, British producers will have 

an increased volume of features to .submit 

to U.S. audiences in 1958. The U.K. eye 

is still on the overseas market, not only 

in the J. Aithur Rank Organization, but 

at the independents, too, as is attested by 

the success of "The Curse of Frankenstein" 

and the British rock 'n' rollers which 

have come across the sea. The use of 

American stars in British-produced pictures 

is on an ever-increasing ri.se, and a 

number of English stars them.selves have 

established a strong marquee rating here 

in the last year or two. 

The Rank Organization will produce 16 

top-budget pictures during the year, the 

same number as it did in 1957. Originally, 

the program had been projected at 20 

pictures, to cost more than $14 million, 

but, several weeks ago, John Davis, the 

company's managing director, announced 

that four of the films, including "Macbeth," 

had been delayed. One of the 

rea.sons given for this pastponement is 

that movie attendance In the United 

Kingdom was off 19 per cent during the 

year, and the apparent inability of Britishproduced 

films to recover their costs by 

Ijelng .shown In Britain alone. 

However, for the current year the praspects 

are that the curtailment in production 

will not affect the number of Brltlshmadc 

pictures to be relea.scd In this 

country In 1958. 

At the moment. Die Rank Organization 

In this country. Rank Film Distributors of 

America, hax ten pictures on schedule. 

Tl>e first of these, "A^•ro^s the Bridge." 

an international chase story based on the 

flight of a British financier to U.S. and 

Mexico, stars the American actor. Rod 

Steiger, and is just moving into release 

channels. On the calendar, too. is Betty 

Box's production of the Charles Dickens 

classic, "A Tale of Two Cities," which 

stars Dirk Bogarde and Dorothy Tutln. 

No definite date for release, however, has 

been set. 

A big production in VistaVision and 

Eastman Color will be "Dangerous Exile," 

a historical adventure story based on the 

supposed escape of the boy-king of FYance 

during the "terror" and his exile in a 

Welsh coast manor. The picture stars 

Louis Jourdan and Belinda Lee. both of 

whom are known to US. audiences. 

Also in Eastman Color will be "Windoms 

Way," a broad-scale adaptation of 

a best-selling British novel of that name 

which tells the story of a doctor's devotion 

to the people of a southeast Asian island. 

It stars Peter Finch and Mary Ure. In the 

.same color process will come a picture 

featuring the well-known star Dirk Bogarde, 

"Campbell's Kingdom," which Betty 

Box has produced. 

On a story level which Indicates England 

has softened its approach to the 

German side of World War II Is "The 

One That Got Away," In which Hardy 

Krueger plays the true-life role of a German 

war ace who was the only war prisoner 

to escape from a World War II 

prison camp and return safely to his 

homeland. 

Also on the list are "Seven Thunders," 

starring Stephen Boyd, James Robertson 

Justice and Kathleen Harrison; "The 

Secret Place," with Belinda Lee; "The 

Woman for Joe, " starring Diane Cilento, 

George Baker and David Kos.soff, in Technicolor 

and VistaVision; and "Hell Divers," 

starring Stanley Baker and Peggy Cummins. 

In addition to the Rank productions, 

there has been considerable independent 

filminuking in England. Tlie rise of the 

independent producer has been one of 

the significant factors on the British 

scene in the last year. 

James Carreras, who made "The Curse 

of Frankenstein" for Warner release— 

picture which is expected to do a $5,000,-

HIQH ROAD PRODUCTIONS... for COLUMBIA relaaaal 

Although It-.lian production in 1957 remained 

at about the 1956 level—approximately 

100 features— it now appears that 

Italian-language pictures will not be as 

numerous on the U.S. market as they 

have been in the past few years. However, 

on co-production deals, the Italians will 

be ably represented on the American 

screen by a number of top-budget films 

channeled through Columbia. MGM. 

Loew's and several other majors. 

Of the Italian-language films, one of 

the big ones will be "Attila the Hun." 

starring Anthony Quinn and Sophia Loren. 

which an independent distributor. Joseph 

Levine. will handle here. In tAvo others, 

which DCA has taken over, the star will 

be Anna Magnnni. These are "The Awakening" 

and "Of Life and Love."

PRODUCERS 

T li I' Towel' Behind (he Scenes 

Unsung Heroes Who Make or Break the Pictures 

24 WaL 54 of Season A Ei^ JiimS 

vtm< 

IFronlersI 

iirHfl-HKR making motion pictures is 

regarded as an industry or as an art, 

a producer cannot remain in business long 

w-ithout a hit or two to his credit. When 

more than one hit in a season results from 

his business acumen, luck or a combination 

or several factors, he is in production 

clover. Since, year after year, the same 

names appear on this list of hit producers, 

the element of luck may be considered 

negligible. There must be a measure of 

know-how Involved. 

This year, for instance, Hal B. Wallis 

the oiJy producer who has lour hits to 

is 

his credit. Last year he had two, and 

Uiey were entirely different types of pictures 

than the four for this year. They 

had one thing in common— they pleased 

the public and made the exhibitors happy. 

Seven producers had three hits each this 

year compared to three with that many 

hits last season—none had four hits last 

year. Among those seven, Buddy Adler 

also Imd three hits in 1956-57 as did Fred 

Kohlmar. Pandro S. Herman, Dmo de 

Laurentlis and David Weisbart moved up 

Into the three-hit class from two hits 

the previous year. Sam Katzman came up 

from one hit last season to three hits 

In the 1956-57 season, as did Ross Hunter. 

Two-hit producers thLs year numbered 

17, whereas only 13 had two hits to their 

credit la the previous season. Thus, 24 

producers accounted for 54 of the season's 

hit pictures. LookiJit? over the list, you will 

•ee names that liuve become industry 

legends. 

For Instance, Darryl P. Zanuck Is repre8ent«d 

by two pictures In which he cho.se 

" 

off-beat themes, both with "Sun in the 

title "Isliuid in the Sun" has racial overtones; 

"Tlie Sun Also Rises" is an In- 

two or three pictures in one. Elia Kazan's 

"Baby Doll" is a controversial social document 

of more than trivial import. 

The universal enthusiasm for William 

Wyler's "Friendly Persuasion" is heartening 

for those who have the motion picture 

industry's best interests at heart. 

Such pictures as Alfred Butterfield's 

"Secrets of the Reef" and Ben SharjJsteen's 

"Secrets of Life" have more than 

seasonal 

significance. 

Gene Kelly's "The Happy Road" gives 

broader scope to the type of product that 

is being made. There will always be a 

demand for standard product but more 

and more people are beginning to feel the 

charm of special films, not alone in the 

art houses. Robert Ai-thur's "Man of a 

Thousand Faces" presented production 

problems that tied in with film history 

and it is good to have them reviewed 

in 

it. 

Leland Haywards "The Spirit of St. 

Louis" is a masterpiece of recreating a 

period as well as the outlook of the period. 

Jerome Hill's "Albert Schweitzer" 

sets a new pattern for the inspirational 

dociunentary. concentrating as it did on 

the essentials that made the man and 

determined the line his life work would 

take. "The Teahouse of the August Moon" 

gave Jack Cummings a chance to show 

how versatile the screeji is compared to 

the limitations of the stage. "Tlie Pajama 

Game" was an equally happy opportunity 

for Stanley Donen to do the same thing 

with 

it. 

All in all, the producers of this season's 

hits, whether they had one, two, three or 

four hits to Uicir credit can feel confident 

that they are raising rather than lowering 

the standard.s of the past. Tills is an

TT IS ironical that the director who 

heads our list this sea.son, the only 

one »1th four hits to his credit. Fred F. 

Sears, recently died. He was at the height 

of an active directorial career. Last year 

he had two hits to his credit. While his 

pictures were made for popular consumption, 

he had perfected his technique 

In that field to the point where he seemed 

to gauge the general public's taste and 

current trends so that his pictures reflected 

these. Last season no director had 

that many hits to his credit and only 

one had three wirmers. 

This season, two directors can take 

pride in having three features which 

were boxoffice hits. In 1955-56. Vincente 

Minnclll had two hits: George Sidney 

had only one, but he .scored with three 

winners in the 1956-57 .season. 

In 1956-57 there were 12 directors each 

of whom megged two winning pictures as 

was the case In the i)revious year. Raoul 

Walsh. Richard Quine, Mervyn LeRoy 

and Frank Tashlin all were also in the 

two-hit class last .season. 

Directors, like the stars, are moving 

from one studio to the other on assignment 

these days, although the majority 

do seem to prefer a home base. Stanley 

Donen directed "Funny Face" for Paramount 

and "The Pajama Game" for 

Warner Bros., both excellent in execution. 

Frank Tashlin did Tlie Girl Cant 

Help It" for 20th-Pox and "Hollj'wood or 

Bu.st" for Paramount. Raoul Walsh made 

"Band of Angels" for Warner Bros, and 

•The King uiid Four Queens" for United 

ArtUt* 

With Billy Wilder It wa» "Love In the 

Afternoon" for Allied Artists and "The 

Spirit of St Louis" for Warner Bros. 

John Boultlng did "Brothers In Law" for 

Omtlnental and "Private's Progress" for 

DOA. 

Tliode who dlrect4.*d only one hit for 

thi- M-uMin need make no iiiwlogles when 

tlii-y dlrect4^ nuch (llnui lui George Ab- 

IxUfh "Tlic Pujiuna Oiunr." James Algarn 

"Secrctii of Life." or Prderlco Felllnl'h 

"Lb Stmda," to niime only a few 

Oth.-r ouUUuullritf ones are John Hus-

edges of racial prejudice while directing 

•Island in the Sun' and Robert D. Webb 

had to maintain a delicate balance in 

•Love Me Tender" to determine public 

acceptance of his g>'rating star. 

In fact, dii-ectors these days are beset 

with more than the much heralded star 

temperaments with which they have always 

had to cope. Public opinion and 

problems of national and international 

tolerance have reached such proportions 

that the handling of a script must be 

approached with fear and trembling for 

fear someone's taboos have been violated. 

The old joke about making a man from 

Mars the villain of the piece may soon 

be obsolete. With all the space travel 

activity, who knows how soon the little 

man himself may show up and take 

umbrage at the temerity of earth people 

to put him in a bad light! 

Moreover, history is being made so fast 

that the motion picture built on current 

concepts may look almost subversive by 

the time the film is in the can. Then 

there is the problem of its being made 

to show in theatres all over the world. 

How win it be received in Igloostan or 

some other out-of-the-way part of the 

world in a few years' time? What a headache 

for directors that the world has not 

only slirunk in ti-avel time but in the 

time it takes for world news to reach it. 

The novelist and the film director always 

feel -safe in dealing with the past, 

because they have something static to 

work with. But now all emphasis is on 

the future and they have to guess what 

Ls coming up. As a result, the whole ix)- 

lltlcal picture can change so as to make 

several .sequences of a picture more than 

unjxjpular—definitely bad psychology or 

propaganda or what have you. 

All of which must be pretty hard on 

the nerves of a dlri-ctor who started out 

to make one thing and winds up with 

boinethlng enllifly different. Except that 

directors have always l)ccn laws unto 

themKclves and have uncanny hunches 

and IntultloiiH that often pay off In surprising 

fashion. 

As everyone knows, the director is the 

guy wheel of a picture and keeps It In 

balance. That he hlm.si-U l.s sometimes a 

Icmperuinentttl sort of fellow, Is underniandubli* 

That kind of Job would make 

anyone thol way and Its gixKl for the

Mr. Cecil B. DeMille 

Paramount Studios, Inc. 

5U5I Marathon Street 

Hollywood, California 

Dear Mr. 

DeMille: 

I thought you would be interested to hear of the result of our reqîest to the 

Kivranis Club here to help defray expense for some of our older foster childi-on 

to attend the TEN CCWMANDMENT3 . They responded by sending us a check, and we 

eisked the youngsters to write us afterwards the effect the picture had on them 

and if they had learned anything that would help them become better and happier 

citizens. Ag you know, I have felt that the picture had a great potential for 

influencing youth to want to become better citizens, so I am quoting some of the 

excerpts from the letters received to prove this point. 

A teen-age girl : "I learned a lot. I wish I could follow the teachings 

of the Ten Commandments. I'm going to try very heird to do what is 

right." 

A twelve-year-old boy : "How stubborn the King Phsiroah was not to believe 

in a God. I liked viaen Moses called his friends in his house so they 

wouldn't be killed. I learned they are driven harder than I am now." 

A teen-age girl: "It made such an impression on me I vrant a;reiy with a 

fuller understanding about how the Ten Commandments cane about. No 

other show has ever given me such a wonderful and glorious feeling." 

A nine-year-old boy : "I liked the picture because it seemed so true. It 

made me believe more in the power of God." 

Please accept ray best wishes for your continued heeLLth. We know the happiness 

you must feel from expressing on film with such ability and vividness the basic 

truths of living. I hope you are making plans to make another. We need all the 

inspiration you can give. With best wishes, 

Sincerely yours, 

(Mrs.) Elsa V. Harris
