Enterprise Productions, Inc., otherwise known as The Enterprise Studios, was an independent production company co-founded by actor John Garfield alongside producers David L. Loew and Charles Einfeld in 1946, right after Garfield's contract with Warner Bros. had expired. Having recently turned freelance, the idea was Garfield's outlet in obtaining creative control over his own projects, as well as encouraging fellow filmmakers to pursue their own humanistic advocacies through their work. Garfield made two films with Enterprise: ''Body and Soul'' (1947) and ''Force of Evil'' (1948). Other productions include ''Arch of Triumph'' (1948), starring Ingrid Bergman and Charles Boyer; and ''Caught'' (1949), starring James Mason and Robert Ryan. During its existence, Enterprise had its films distributed by United Artists from 1947 to mid-1948. The last three films were distributed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. Eventually, after the box-office failure that ''Force of Evil'' brought (as well as Garfield's trouble with the House Un-American Activities Committee), Enterprise folded in 1949. The film ''Caught'' was its last production. The entire catalog is currently owned by Viacom, whose Melange Pictures holding unit owns the former library of predecessor-in-interest Republic Pictures, while Paramount Pictures distributes. ==Select Films== *''Ramrod'' (1947) *''The Other Love'' (1947) *''Body and Soul'' (1947) *''Arch of Triumph'' (1948) *''So This Is New York'' (1948) *''Four Faces West'' (1948) *''No Minor Vices'' (1948) *''Force of Evil'' (1948) *''Caught'' (1949) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Enterprise Studios」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
