PARIS -- French cinema group Gaumont posted improved full-year 2004 results Monday, with revenue rising 26% over the previous year to 88.6 million ($117.3 million) and a net profit of 9.7 million ($12.8 million), compared with 2.8 million in 2003. The group attributed the improved results to the success of two films it released last year and a healthy increase in French film admissions, which benefited the turnover of its EuroPalaces chain of cinema halls. Alain Berberian's The Corsica File, starring Jean Reno and Christian Clavier, registered 2.6 million entries, while Olivier Marchal's cop thriller, 36 Quai des Orfevres, starring Daniel Auteuil and Gerard Depardieu, attracted two million entries last year. Consolidated profit for its EuroPalaces cinemas rose to 16.6 million ($21.9 million) compared with 3.9 million in 2003, on revenues of 407.7 million ($539.8 million) against a year-earlier 380 million, Gaumont said in a statement.
