We’ve also tried to pick companies that are capable of making a broad slate of films rather than those that are best known simply as the production vehicles for particular directorial talent. ![]() They are not just producers for hire – rather they are producers who look for and develop scripts, attach talent to projects, raise finance and risk their own money in films that they believe in. The companies selected are those that have a track record of making films that attract box office, critical acclaim and/or awards. So we have chosen the following companies based on their reputation within the industry.
