PLAYERS Conventional Wisdom
Fox + Cheer up, Rupert. You bagged $150 mil on “Home Alone.” Collateral, anyone? Universal Sushi in the commissary? New owners aren’t bashful about interference. Disney Big box office undercut by tough corporate culture, dubbed “Mouschwitz.” Paramount Murphy and Buchwald troubles. But the whole world saw “Ghost.” MGM-Pathe - Ex-waiter muscles into town from Sicily. But where’d Parretti get the cash? Warner Bros. - Passed on “Home Alone” in favor of “Bonfire.” Smooth move!
