| 词条 | Prestige picture |
| 释义 |
A prestige picture is a film produced to bolster the film studio's perceived artistic integrity, rather than to turn a large profit;[1] the studio may even expect the film to lose money.[2] Prestige pictures are largely the province of major Hollywood film studios—such as Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer and Warner Bros.—that produce numerous films every year. In the 1930s, such studios might release one prestige picture per year.[2] The films' screenwriters drew material from historical events, well-known literary classics, or popular novels or plays.[3] In many cases, Hollywood film studios have enlisted British actors and directors for the production of prestige films.[4] One producer of prestige pictures within the United Kingdom's own film industry was Alexander Korda (1893–1956).[5] See also{{Portal|Film}}
