Joinville Studios
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Joinville Studios were a film studio in Paris which operated between 1910 and 1987. They were one of the leading French studios, with major companies such as Pathé and Gaumont making films there.
In the early 1930s the American company Paramount Pictures took over the studios and made French-language versions of their hit films. In total films were made in fourteen different languages as Joinville became a hub of such multi-language versions.[1] While many were remakes of English-language hits, some were original stories. This practice declined as dubbing became more commonplace.[2]
