Summary:

"Budgets and Markets" highlights the decisions involved in budgeting and marketing European films. It looks at the origin, development, production, distribution, finanancing and profit of thirteen films, including such critical and popular successes as Tacones Lejanos (High Heels) by Pedro Almodovar and Peter's Friends by Kenneth Branagh. Detailed financial data is reinforced by interviews with the producers of each film. The core of the analysis is based on the question 'was this film made at the right price for the right market?'

Notes:

"This report ... was commissioned by the Ateliers du Cinema Européen (ACE), a joint project of the Media Business School and Le Club des Producteurs Européens, in September 1994"--Half t.p.
