List of Eagle-Lion Films

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Films released by the British-American distributor Eagle-Lion Films between 1947 and 1951. The company's releases were a mixture of imports from Britain, mainly from the J. Arthur Rank Organization[1] which co-owned Eagle-Lion, and American productions made specially by the company. In 1951 production was discontinued and the remaining releases were handled by United Artists.[2]

Some of the company's earliest releases were made by Producers Releasing Corporation and are included in the List of PRC films.
