SOL C. SIEGEL, producer of 20th-Fox's "There's No Business Like Show Business" came to New York for its opening this week, and declared independent producers are providing not only the originality studios lack; but when apart from the studios, the product the industry now needs. He finds as a producer an awareness by top talent of the necessity for good production, good scripts, and for participation on a profit sharing basis. He declared recent successes prove "there is no insurance policy; but if you hit, the money is there, the rewards are there".
