  • Hall & Neale, 2010, p. 179. "Later epics proved far more disastrous for the backers. Samuel Bronston's The Fall of the Roman Empire, filmed in Spain, cost $17,816,876 and grossed only $1.9 million in America. George Stevens's long-gestating life of Christ, The Greatest Story Ever Told (1965), which had been in planning since 1954 and in production since 1962, earned domestic rentals of $6,962,715 on a $21,481,745 negative cost, the largest amount yet spent on a production made entirely within the United States. The Bible—in the Beginning... (1966) was financed by the Italian producer Dino De Laurentiis from private investors and Swiss banks. He then sold distribution rights outside Italy jointly to Fox and Seven Arts for $15 million (70 percent of which came from Fox), thereby recouping the bulk of his $18 million investment. Although The Bible returned a respectable world rental of $25.3 million, Fox was still left with a net loss of just over $1.5 million. It was the last biblical epic to be released by any major Hollywood studio for nearly twenty years."
  • Wasko, Janet. The Hollywood Film Industry: A Reader. — Routledge, 1986. — P. 34. — «Various accounts have cited $15 to $18 million profits during the first few years of release, while in a letter to a potential investor in the proposed sound version, Aitken noted that a $15 to $18 million box-office gross was a 'conservative estimate'. For years Variety has listed The Birth of a Nation's total rental at $50 million. (This reflects the total amount paid to the distributor, not box-office gross.) This 'trade legend' has finally been acknowledged by Variety as a 'whopper myth', and the amount has been revised to $5 million. That figure seems far more feasible, as reports of earnings in the Griffith collection list gross receipts for 1915–1919 at slightly more than $5.2 million (including foreign distribution) and total earnings after deducting general office expenses, but not royalties, at about $2 million.».». — ISBN 9780710097309.

  • Cones, John W. The feature film distribution deal: a critical analysis of the single most important film industry agreement (англ.). — Издательство Саутерн Иллинойсского университета, 1997. — P. 41. — ISBN 978-0-8093-2082-0.. — «Distributor rentals: It is also important to know and recognize the difference between the distributor's gross receipts and the gross rentals. The term "rentals" refers to the aggregate amount of the film distributor's share of monies paid at theatre box offices computed on the basis of negotiated agreements between the distributor and the exhibitor. Note that gross receipts refers to amounts actually received and from all markets and media, whereas gross rentals refers to amounts earned from theatrical exhibition only, regardless of whether received by the distributor. Thus, gross receipts is the much broader term and includes distributor rentals. The issue of film rentals (i.e., what percentage of a film's box office gross comes back to the distributor) is of key importance...More current numbers suggest that distributor rentals for the major studio/distributor released films average in the neighborhood of 43% of box office gross. Again, however, such an average is based on widely divergent distributor rental ratios on individual films.».
  • Marich, Robert. Marketing to moviegoers: a handbook of strategies used by major studios and independents (англ.). — 2. — Издательство Саутерн Иллинойсского университета, 2009. — P. 252. — ISBN 9780809328840.. — «Rentals are the distributors' share of the box office gross and typically set by a complex, two-part contract.».

Moviegoing became a special event for most people, creating the phenomenon of the big picture.».
  • Finler, 2003, p. 358
  • Parkinson, David. The Rough Guide to Film Musicals. — Dorling Kindersley, 2007. — С. 28. — ISBN 978-1-84353-650-5.. — «But they had previously succeeded in showing how musicals could centre on ordinary people with Sunny Side Up (1929), which had grossed $2 million at the box office and demonstrated a new maturity and ingenuity in the staging of story and dance.».
  • Hall & Neale, 2010, pp. 67. «For similar reasons of accountability, Variety has typically used figures for domestic (U.S. and Canadian) rather than worldwide revenue. This became its standard policy in 1940, when the advent of war in Europe persuaded the American film industry (temporarily, as it turned out) that it should be wholly reliant on the home market for profitability. Where specific rentals data are reported in Variety before this (which tended to be only sporadically) they were often for worldwide rather domestic performance. This was also the case with other trade sources, such as Quigleýs annual Motion Picture Almanac, which published its own all-time hits lists from the early 1930s onward. The subsequent confusion of domestic and worldwide figures, and of rental and box-office figures, has plagued many published accounts of Hollywood history (sometimes including those in Variety itself), and we have attempted to be diligant in clarifying the differences between them.»
  • Block & Wilson, 2010, p. 237. «By the end of 1938, it had grossed more than $8 million in worldwide rentals and was ranked at the time as the second-highest-grossing film after the 1925 epic Ben-Hur».
  • Finler, 2003, p. 47. «Walt Disney took a big risk when he decided to invest $1.5 million in his first feature-length animated film, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. It became the biggest hit of the sound era and the largest-grossing movie since The Birth of a Nation — until the release of independent producer David O. Selznick’s Gone with the Wind just two years later.»
  • Barrios, Richard. A Song in the Dark: The Birth of the Musical Film (англ.). — Издательство Оксфордского университета, 1995. — P. 49. — ISBN 9780195088113.. — «Since it’s rarely seen today, The Singing Fool is frequently confused with The Jazz Singer; although besides Jolson and a pervasively maudlin air the two have little in common. In the earlier film Jolson was inordinately attached to his mother and sang „Mammy“; here the fixation was on his young son, and „Sonny Boy“ became an enormous hit. So did the film, which amassed a stunning world-wide gross of $5.9 million…Some sources give it as the highest gross of any film in its initial release prior to Gone with the Wind. This is probably overstating it—MGM’s records show that Ben-Hur and The Big Parade grossed more, and no one knows just how much The Birth of a Nation brought in. Still, by the standards of the time it’s an amazing amount.».
  • Everson, William K. American silent film. — Da Capo Press, 1998. — С. 374. — ISBN 978-0-306-80876-0.. — «Putting The Birth of a Nation in fifth place is open to question, since it is generally conceded to be the top-grossing film of all time. However, it has always been difficult to obtain reliable box-office figures for this film, and it may have been even more difficult in the mid-1930’s. After listing it until the mid-1970’s as the top-grosser, though finding it impossible to quote exact figures, Variety, the trade journal, suddenly repudiated the claim but without giving specific details or reasons. On the basis of the number of paid admissions, and continuous exhibition, its number one position seems justified.».
  • Hall & Neale, 2010, p. 163. «MGM’s silent Ben-Hur, which opened at the end of 1925, had out-grossed all the other pictures released by the company in 1926 combined. With worldwide rentals of $9,386,000 on first release it was, with the sole possible exception of The Birth of a Nation, the highest-earning film of the entire silent era.»
  • Christian Herald. — 1965. — Т. 88. — С. 68.
  • Hall & Neale, 2010, pp. 160–161. «General release began at normal prices in 1959 and continued until the end of the following year, when the film was temporarily withdrawn (the first of several reissues came in 1966). The worldwide rental by this time was around $60 million. In the domestic market it dislodged Gone with the Wind from the number one position on Varietýs list of All-Time Rentals Champs. GWTW had hitherto maintained its lead through several reissues (and was soon to regain it through another in 1961).»

How to Read a Film:Movies, Media, and Beyond (англ.). — Издательство Оксфордского университета, 2009. — P. 262. — ISBN 9780199755790.. — «The Birth of a Nation, costing an unprecedented and, many believed, thoroughly foolhardy $110,000, eventually returned $20 million and more. The actual figure is hard to calculate because the film was distributed on a „states' rights“ basis in which licenses to show the film were sold outright. The actual cash generated by The Birth of a Nation may have been as much as $50 million to $100 million, an almost inconceivable amount for such an early film.».
