Bitter Kill [archived newspaper article.]

 


Robert Goldstein’s

‘Westerns’ in Spain

 

Variety

Madrid, June 9 (1963)

 

     Indie producer Robert Goldstein sewed up two coproduction deals and plans to organize a production base here in film an undetermined number of westerns in the coming future.

     The American producer joined with a new active Spanish company, Pro-Artis to bring “Joaquin Murietta” before cameras this summer under the direction of George Sherman. This project was formerly on the Ocean Films slate as a four-way venture with France, Italy and Yugoslavia. With Ocean heavily committed in the current Clint Eastwood-starrer “Ray, the Magnificent” on the western plains of Castile, Pro-Artis took over “Murietta” and set the deal with Goldstein.

     Jeff Hunter was originally scheduled to star and Goldstein-Pro Artis hope to clinch him. If still available.

     Second in the Goldstein’s coproduction line up with Pro-Artis is “Bitter Kill,” a James Edward Grant screenplay, Sherman will also rein.
