释义 |
Hoffman established the company in 1931, a year after he had set-up another outfit Liberty Pictures. For Allied, Hoffmann signed up Hoot Gibson, a Western star who had recently been released from his contract at Universal Pictures. Gibson still had a popular following, and the company used the profits from his films to back more ambitious literary adaptations that Hoffmann wanted to make such as Vanity Fair and Unholy Love.[2] Monte Blue appeared in three films for Allied, but several other announced films starring him were never made. Another prominent star was Lila Lee.[3] In 1934 Allied folded, and Hoffman concentrated on running Liberty Pictures until that was merged into the new Republic Pictures.[4] The company should not be confused with the later Allied Artists, an offshoot of another Poverty Row studios Monogram.
