Though Paramount made some elegant comedies in the "Continental" style, many of the best Paramount pictures were like revues — which was pretty much the style of the Broadway theatre they'd come out of, and was what I liked about them.
Paramount made it into the movie "She Done Him Wrong," a huge box-office hit.
Still, Paramount made a strong showing at the box office, releasing two Academy Award-nominated films in the quarter, "The Fighter" and "True Grit".
In the face of all that, Paramount made what many saw as a clumsy attempt to position "True Grit" as part of the revolution.
Paramount made a lot of noise about its plan to re-release a longer cut of its Will Ferrell comedy but it hasn't been a success.
Paramount made a hit of "Paranormal Activity" by using unconventional marketing tactics, including a Web campaign urging fans to "demand" the film before it was shown.
The following year, Paramount made a series of recordings by Eddie ("Son") House, whose music failed to find a large audience at the time but exerted a powerful influence on later blues performers, notably Robert Johnson and Muddy Waters.
Specifically Mr. Goodman wants them to help Paramount make better use of its MTV Films and Nickelodeon Films labels, best known lately for "Jackass 3-D" and "The Last Airbender".
In 1939 Paramount made him a full-time director, and his early B-films for the studio included Television Spy (1939) with Anthony Quinn, Golden Gloves (1940), and Mystery Sea Raider (1940).
On the other, Paramount made it clear that this was a "spiritual successor", not a sequel, to Cloverfield, that the film had been repurposed from a kidnap thriller screenplay called The Cellar, and was achieved with a lower production cost than its predecessor.
