regerds those pictures an olly without <rov “4 ee were or contempleted nesotiating with the Sivioli Thestre for the ‘exhibition of FOUR FEATHFRS. —Yeour hetter to us dated May-25,-1933_wee the first infcormetion we had from any source of your seid alleged negoti«tions with the Rivoli Thectre pertaining
to FOUR FEATHERS.
Whether thé Rivoli Theatre will eventually take our
seid pictures or FOUR FEATHERS must and will of course, depend entirely upon’ the wishes end desires of the Rivoli Thestre. Under our saidgtoptract of July 22, 1936, and yo must so clearly understend, it does not lie within your pover to @te— --_-~ tate to the Kivoli thestre, contrery to its own wishes and desires, that “it must jteke FOUR FEATHERS in prefernee to ourpictures, and this is so whether or.not FOUR FEATHERS wes sea delivered to you prior im se:uence tothe delivery by us to you of either of our said pictures. In any event, plesse be “ retiindea that FOUR FEATHERS wes in effect delivered to you 4s far beck as Avril 17, 1239 when it was exhibited for the first time and as we resd and understand yar contract with, London Film Productions, +tc. and Alexender Korde dated Sentember 2, 1935, you were under obligation to distribute said FOUR FEATHERS” ~\ within 60 deys efter the said date of April 17 , 1939, which | 60 deys will exoire on June 16, 1939. We feil therefore to understand why you are st this time negotiating a release of
. ' S-im-New York City. Furthermore, ._ the fixing of release dates in secuence of delivery should not apply in cases where release dates of other photolays are not consistent with the orovisions of the distribution contracts with respect tc such other photo:lsys, end we certeinly cannot consent t. the fixing fa release date or pre-release dste for Mr. Korde'*s picture, FOUR FRATHERS, et a time subsecuent to the orovisions of his distribution eentrect wit h you so as to interfere with the exhibition of our picture <t the Rf¥oli Theatre es errenged. But whether or not we are correct in our interpretation of the said contrect of September 2, 19235, we repeat and urge upon you seriously that if the Rivoli Theatre should orefer our seid pictures over FOUR FEATHERS end the Rivii
Theatre should be willing to enter into contrects with you there
