CBS considers dabbling in movies

Leslie Moonves, the head of CBS and favorite telephone guest of David Letterman, says the network is considering financing some movies. He says they don't plan on doing anything big like Superman, but that he'd like to see the network finance a handful of smaller-budget movies each year. Smaller budget, by the way, means $20-$30 million a flick. CBS lost its connection to movies when when it split with Viacom last year. Viacom retained Paramount Pictures.
