History

Commonwealth United Corporation was originally a real estate holding company formed in 1961 as the Real Properties Corporation. It changed its name to CUC in 1965.[2] In 1967, CUC acquired Television Enterprises Corporation (TEC).[li 1] Milton T. Raynor moved to California and became vice-president at TEC. Later, Raynor took over ownership.[1]

Commonwealth United Entertainment

In 1967, Commonwealth United Corporation acquired The Landau-Unger Company, with Ely Landau becoming president and CEO and Oliver A. Unger as executive vice-president.[3] It also acquired Television Enterprises Corporation[li 1] and was renamed Commonwealth United Entertainment (CUE).[1] In 1967, CUE produced 17 theatrical films and purchased publishing and recording interests.[li 1] The Max Factor family financed That Cold Day in the Park, a movie directed by Robert Altman that CUE released in 1969.[li 2] By 1971, CUE was $80 million in debt. The company's film rights, foreign and domestic, were acquired by National Telefilm Associates and American International Pictures respectively.[li 1]
