Carmen (1915 Cecil B. DeMille film) so DeMille instructed his screenwriter brother William to base his scenario on the public domain novella "Carmen" by Prosper Mérimée. The novella's Carmen was more wilful and manipulative than the opera version. For instance, William included a cigarette factory fight scene from the book which was not found in the opera. Composer Hugo Riesenfeld arranged the orchestral score, his first of many for film, which "was" based on that of Bizet's opera. It was performed at the premiere and other prestigious screenings. There have been two restorations of Riesenfeld's score: the first was by Gillian Anderson, recorded with the London
Java (cigarette) place, and the first place among cigarette brands. Since January 2008, sales of Yava Export have started in Russia. In 2016, it was reported that Java cigarettes hold a 5% market share in Russia. In 1856 the Karaite merchant Samuel Gabay, who moved to Moscow from Kharkov in the middle of the 19th century, founded a tobacco factory in Moscow, which was then called the "Association of Samuel Gabay". The production of the factory was popular, and the business developed successfully. The information on this page is provided by "British American Tobacco Russia" and is for reference only. Images of
