David O. Selznick
After "Rebecca", Selznick closed Selznick International Pictures and took some time off. His business activities included the loan of his contracted artists to other studios, including Alfred Hitchcock, Ingrid Bergman, Vivien Leigh and Joan Fontaine. He formed The Selznick Studio and returned to producing pictures with "Since You Went Away" (1944), which he also wrote. He followed that with the Hitchcock films "Spellbound" (1945) and "The Paradine Case" (1947), as well as "Portrait of Jennie" (1948) with Jennifer Jones. He also developed film projects and sold the packages to other producers. Among the movies that he developed but then sold was Hitchcock's "Notorious" (1946). In 1949 he co-produced the Carol Reed picture "The Third Man" with Alexander Korda.
