a number of studies which examine exile in other countries such as the UK. See, for instance: Bergfelder, Tim & Cargnelli, Christian (eds.).

8 One inaccuracy, for instance, concerns Horak's claim that Lion Feuchtwanger and Franz Werfel had received a writers' contract from the studios, which is incorrect as according to a letter by Liesl Frank to John Spalek, 'Lion Feuchtwanger [and] Franz Werfel were offered contracts, [but] chose not to accept them' (see: Letter by Liesl Frank-Mittler-Lustig to John Spalek, 18th July, 1971, Private Collection, John Spalek, Albany, NY). The reason for that was that both Feuchtwanger and Werfel had a wide readership in the US and thus did not have to rely on the German market for the sale of their books.

12 For instance, the M.E. Grenander Department of Special Collections at the University of Albany was inaugurated in 1996; The Kinemathek in Berlin acquired the Paul Kohner Archive in 1989, the year after Kohner's death. Similarly, it was a year before her death in 1988, that Marta Feuchtwanger bequeathed her husband's papers and documents to the University of Southern California which has subsequently turned it into the Feuchtwanger Memorial Library. Access to these sources later facilitated exile research, however, at the time Horak embarked on his pioneering study, these sources were not yet available.

23 Between 1925 and 1927 Paramount and MGM were affiliated with UFA through ParUfaMet, a deal that proved disadvantageous for UFA as in exchange for a much needed loan, UFA had to agree to very injurious screening slots of its own films both in Germany and in the US.
