For the American producer (1920–2009), see Charles H. Schneer.
Charles Schnee (6 August 1916 Bridgeport, Connecticut – 29 November 1962 Beverly Hills, California) was an American screenwriter and film producer. He wrote the scripts for the Westerns Red River (1948) and The Furies (1950), the social melodrama They Live by Night (1949), and the cynical Hollywood saga The Bad and the Beautiful (1952), for which he won an Academy Award.
He worked primarily as a film producer and production executive during the mid-1950s (credits include Until They Sail), but he eventually turned his attention back to scriptwriting.
