Responding to some doubts about the abilities of Golan & Globus while at Cannon Pictures (several of W.Morton's posts on the Facts thread).

Firstly the Cannon Group was remarkably successful - however it was when G&G moved out of low budget movies and into higher budget movies that they ran into trouble.
Post #17 on the FACTS thread is the analyst's report on MVEE - it covers a very brief history of Cannon.... [although Mr Morton has been subtly casting doubt upon Alexander,Westcott - I think we can assume that the information posted with regard to Cannon is correct]

At IMDB you can find out more:

Probably not complete and some of these searches overlap too.
Golan-Globus have made or rather produced some very good movies
"Year Movie Award / Nomination

Golden Globe: Won I
Golden Globe: 2 Nominations
1986 Lovestreams Winner. Golden Bear. Berlin Film
Festival

And also many truly appalling movies too.....

And.... more anecdotally
When I mentioned to a friend who used to be actress and is really into the movie business that Golan&Globus were back she said: "Wow! Those guys just have the golden touch...." She was going to call her broker in the morning.
