LONDON -- Pathe Pictures, one of the U.K. lottery-backed moviemaking franchises, said Wednesday that it has established a three-picture production fund with U.K. media and entertainment investment/advisory group Ingenious Media. The fund, set up between Pathe and Ingenious Film and Television, is a tax-based vehicle that will allow Ingenious investors to pump cash into three Pathe productions through Ingenious' £50 million ($77.5 million) Inside Track Fund. One of the films the fund will invest in is the romantic comedy Suzie Gold, which started shooting last week. It stars Summer Phoenix and is helmed by debuting director Ric Cantor. It will also invest in The Girl With the Pearl Earring, the film adaptation of the best-selling book by Tracy Chevalier, starring Scarlett Johansson and Colin Firth.
