Santana Productions

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Santana Productions was a film production company founded in 1948 by Humphrey Bogart. It was named after his yacht (and the cabin cruiser in Key Largo).[1] The company released its films through Columbia Pictures, but the majority of its motion pictures lost money at the box office, ultimately forcing the sale of Santana.[2]
