In May 1973 Cohen announced a slate of seven films worth £5 million:
- Here There Be Dragons starring Joseph Bottoms - which became The Dove
- Wet Stuff with Elliot Gould and Donald Sutherland
- Swallows and Amazons
- Murder on the Orient Express
- Alfie Darling
- Hot Property with Cliff Richard - this became Take Me High
- The Killer Elite produced by Arthur Lewis
What about this slate? Well it had a massive hit in Orient Express. I would've invested in The Dove - not the Gould/Sutherland film.
Swallows and Amazons - yes, a kids film. Alfie sequel - it sucked, I would've made it in 1970... they waited too long. Cliff Richard musical - sure worth a shot. Killer Elite, yes.
This slate was a little iffy but it had Orient Express.
