Wright: International Trade Remedies to Bring Hollywood Home WRIGHT1.DOC 6/1/2006 2:40:25 PM HOLLYWOOD’S DISAPPEARING ACT: INTERNATIONAL TRADE REMEDIES TO BRING HOLLYWOOD HOME Claire Wright* I. INTRODUCTION Hollywood has a dirty little secret: a great many of the U.S.’ cul- tural and entertainment products are not even “Made in the USA” any- more,1 and Hollywood itself appears to be for sale to the highest bidder. In November 2005, the Los Angeles Economic Development Corpora- tion reported that approximately 33% of U.S.-developed feature films are filmed outside of the U.S. today,2 and there are indications that this figure could be much higher.3 Forty-five percent of all major studio * Assistant Professor, Thomas Jefferson School of Law. I was aided by helpful comments from Professor Robert Lutz of Southwestern University School of Law, Professor Alan O Sykes of the University of Chicago, The Law School, and Professor Paul Weiler of Harvard Law School. 1. A movie shot in another country possesses the country of origin of that other country. See Tariff Act of 1930 § 304, 19 U.S.C. § 1304 (2005); 19 C.F.R. § 134 (2005). The country of origin of an imported product is the country of manufacture. See 19 C.F.R. § 134.1(b) (2005). 2 2.

These data reveal that this percentage was 32% in 2003. Id. at 14. The Hollywood Reporter monitors feature film production by major studios as well as inde- pendent companies.

However, it is not common for a film to be shot in multiple foreign locations. The author is not aware of any other manner in which the ex- hibits may be based on incomplete or inaccurate data.

The fact that in the spring of 2005 Jennifer Garner was in Vancouver filming Catch and Release, Brad Pitt was in Calgary filming The Assassination of Jesse James, and Ben Affleck was in Toronto filming the movie Truth, Justice and the American Way15 illustrates the pervasiveness of this phenome- non. In fact, the outsourcing of the U.S. film industry is so well- entrenched and accepted by film industry management that there are re- ports that U.S. film industry workers who have organized activities pro- moting the retention of film production in the U.S. have been “black- listed” in Hollywood.16 Just as in the McCarthy era in the 1950s, these film industry workers say that they are being accused of being Commu- nists and of engaging in potentially dangerous “un-American activi- ties.”17 As a result, they claim that they are finding it difficult, if not im- 12.

  • The Rise of Controversial Content in Film
    The Climb of Controversial Film Content by Ashley Haygood Submitted to the Department of Communication Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts in Communication at Liberty University May 2007 Film Content ii Abstract This study looks at the change in controversial content in films during the 20th century. Original films made prior to 1968 and their remakes produced after were compared in the content areas of profanity, nudity, sexual content, alcohol and drug use, and violence. The advent of television, post-war effects and a proposed “Hollywood elite” are discussed as possible causes for the increase in controversial content. Commentary from industry professionals on the change in content is presented, along with an overview of American culture and the history of the film industry. Key words: film content, controversial content, film history, Hollywood, film industry, film remakes i. Film Content iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my family for their unwavering support during the last three years. Without their help and encouragement, I would not have made it through this program. I would also like to thank the professors of the Communications Department from whom I have learned skills and information that I will take with me into a life-long career in communications.

The following report solely reflects the views of the authors. Findings, conclusions or recom- mendations expressed in this report are those of the authors and do not necessarily reflect the views of the funders of this report, who are in no way bound by any recommendations con- tained herein. 2 EXPORTING CANADIAN FEATURE FILMS IN GLOBAL MARKETS Executive Summary Goals of the Study The goals of this study were three-fold: 1. To identify key trends in international sales of feature films generally and Canadian independent feature films specifically; 2. To provide intelligence on challenges and opportunities to increase foreign sales; 3. To identify policies, programs and initiatives to support foreign sales in other jurisdic- tions and make recommendations to ensure that Canadian initiatives are competitive. For the purpose of this study, Canadian film exports were defined as sales of rights. These included pre-sales, sold in advance of the completion of films and often used to finance pro- duction, and sales of rights to completed feature films. In other jurisdictions foreign sales are being measured in a number of ways, including the number of box office admissions, box of- fice revenues, and sales of rights.

Savage 1 “Who’s gonna turn down a Junior Mint? It’s chocolate, it’s peppermint ─it’s delicious!” While this may sound like your typical television commercial, you can thank Jerry Seinfeld and his butter fingers for what is actually one of the most renowned lines in television history. As part of a 1993 episode of Seinfeld , subsequently known as “The Junior Mint,” these infamous words have certainly gained a bit more attention than the show’s writers had originally bargained for. In fact, those of you who were annoyed by last year’s focus on a McDonald’s McFlurry on NBC’s 30 Rock may want to take up your beef with Seinfeld’s producers for supposedly showing marketers the way to the future ("Brand Practice: Product Integration Is as Old as Hollywood Itself").
