Coproduction (film)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A co-production is a production where two or more different production companies are working together, for example in a film production. In the case of an international coproduction, production companies from different countries (typically two to three) are working together.

Co-production is also refers to the way services are produced by their users, in some parts or entirely.

International film coproduction was very common along the 50s, 60s and 70s between Italian, Spanish and French production companies, as exemplified by most of the Spaghetti-western and Peplum movies being Spanish-Italian coproductions, typically directed by an Italian, played fifty-fifty by Spanish and Italian actors and shot in southern Spain landscapes. The archetype of such pan-european coproductions was Treasure Island (1972), a British-French-German-Italian-Spanish film, starring American Orson Welles.
