TheJoinville Studios were afilm studio inParis which operated between 1910 and 1987. They were one of the leading French studios, with major companies such asPathé andGaumont making films there.

A second studio was added to the original in 1923.^[1] This was located less than a kilometre away, and together the two served as a major filmmaking hub.^[2] After theSecond World War the studio was merged into theFranstudio network in 1947 along with other majorParis studios including theSaint-Maurice Studios andFrancoeur Studios.^{[citation needed]}

In the early 1930s, the American companyParamount Pictures took over the studios and madeFrench-language versions of their hit films. In total, films were made in fourteen different languages as Joinville became a hub of such multi-language versions.^[3] While many were remakes of English-language hits, some were original stories. This practice declined asdubbing became more commonplace.^[4]
