The cost of three pictures to be made for United Artists distribution by William Cagney Productions during 1947 will amount to almost $8,000,000, a UA announcement said this week. First to be produced at the General Service Studios is the $2,300,000 adaptation of Sayoran's "The Time of Your Life," which goes before the cameras April 14, with Henry Koster directing. Next is Thorne Smith's "The Stray Lamb," to cost about $2,100,000. Shooting will start in July with Richard Wallace directing. The third will be Adria Locke Langley's book, "A Lion Is in the Streets," which has a budget of $3,500,000. James Cagney will star in all three pictures.
Reissue "Ragtime Band"
Twentieth Century-Fox will reissue its 1938 musical, "Alexander's Ragtime Band," in April. First run dates in Los Angeles, Denver and San Diego head the list of 23 key city bookings so far. It will play the Roxy in New York.
Eastman Opens Foreign Units
Pre-war operations of the Eastman Kodak Company in Manila, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Singapore have been resumed, and plans have been made for the reopening of the company's branch in Batavia, Java, this year, the forty-fourth annual Eastman Kodak report, released Thursday, indicates.
Plants in Harrow, England, in Toronto, Canada, and Vincennes, France, continued to operate at high levels during the past year, while the plant in Stuttgart, Germany, continued to operate under the jurisdiction . of the American Military Government. . At the same time the company announced a new laboratory in Panama City to study photographic equipment and materials under tropical conditions.
Progress in color was the top photographic development of the year, the report said, and a "sizable" appropriation has been made to continue a broad program of research, development and process improvement, which will embrace methods of rapid film processing studied in relation to commercial needs, especially in television.
The booklet report also covers the company's 1946 activities and supplements financial details, announced March 5, which showed peacetime sales of $274,703,448, and a net profit of $35,691,318. The latter figure includes tax reductions totaling $2,936,800.
