SANCHEZ in San Juan Puerto Rico imported 2,804,269 feet of film, chiefly from the U. S., during the first quarter of 1946, an increase of 924,406 over imports during the same period of 1945, according to official figures just released. Imports during the first quarter of 1945 were 1,879,863 feet. Some of the major Hollywood companies and foreign film exchanges in San Juan reexport prints to the Virgin Islands, the Dominican Republic and Venezuela. The above import figures, therefore, represent over-all picture trade with these Caribbean countries, through imports accredited to Puerto Rico. At present regular shipments of 16mm film are being made to those countries included in the MGM 16mm program. V New Western Electric sound equipment is being installed at the Matienze theatre (810 seats) in Santurce. Total value of new equipment is estimated at $20,000. The Metro theatre in Santruce, with 1,000 seats, is also installing Western Electric equipment as well as the Teatre Renacimiente and Teatre San Lorenzo at Arrego. • Big Portuguese Film in Work by JOAO DE MORAES PALMEIRO in Lisbon The Portuguese production, "Camoes," considered to be the most outstanding sound production yet made in this country, will have its premiere next season. In the meantime, arrangements are under way to sell the picture in North and South America. V Effective exploitation for RKO's "The Spanish Main" resulted in six weeks of continuous runs at Lisbon's Politeama and a three-week run in Oporto's S. Joao. The picture has had the longest local run of any picture yet shown this year. V American product recently shown in Lisbon included "Hotel Berlin," "Hollywood Canteen," "The Valley of Decision," and "Guest Wife." V Madeleine Carroll, expected in Lisbon some time ago to star in the Spanish-Portuguese picture, "The Holy Queen," has postponed her visit. Production on the picture has begun at Madrid. Reich Joins Monogram William Reich, appointed as sales representative for Monogram in Brazil, left New York last week to take up his new duties. S6 MOTION PICTURE HERALD. JUNE 22, 1946
