King Brothers Productions was an American film production company,^[1] active from 1941 to the late 1960s. It was founded by the Kozinsky brothers, Morris (Maurice, Maury, Morrie; September 13, 1914 – September 2, 1977), Frank (April 1, 1913 – February 12, 1989), and Hyman (Herman, Hy, Hymie; July 4, 1916 – July 20, 1992), who later changed their professional surname to "King".^[2] They had notable collaborations with such filmmakers as Philip Yordan and William Castle and are particularly remembered today for employing a number of blacklisted writers during the Red Scare of the late 1940s and 1950s. Their films include Dillinger (1945), Suspense (1946), Gun Crazy (1949), Carnival Story (1954), The Brave One (1956—which earned writer Dalton Trumbo a Best Story Academy Award), Gorgo (1961), Captain Sindbad (1963), and Heaven With a Gun (1968).
