the producer who rented it / producer renting it Explanation: I don't think this is a compound noun, but just something that can be expressed more neatly in French than in English. |

Reference: tenant producer (cinema) Reference information: "Tenant producer" does seem to be used in connection with cinema, at least by the following two authors: From "Past and Present: National Identity and the British Historical Film" by James Chapman: https://books.google.fr/books?id=vvyEQF_WyH0C&lpg=PA144&ots=... From "British Film Design: A History" by Laurie N. Ede: http://books.google.fr/books?id=7633AgAAQBAJ&lpg=PR1&ots=0Ts... Also, from a website about Alexander Korda at http://www.leninimports.com/alexander_korda.html : "Korda was forced to add cheaper features to his production schedules and to accept independent producers as tenants to fill Denham's empty stages. Korda found himself losing control of Denham to the financiers (eventually to J.Arthur Rank). He was finally forced to become a tenant producer in the studio he had built just a few years before." |
