ABOUT US

Focus Features, part of NBC Universal, is a singular global company dedicated to producing, acquiring, financing, selling, and distributing original and daring films from emerging and established filmmakers – films that challenge mainstream moviegoers to embrace and enjoy voices and visions from around the world. The company operates as Focus Features domestically, and as Focus Features International overseas.


ABOUT FILM IN FOCUS
Welcome to FilmInFocus, the website for grown-up movie lovers. Rather than devote our resources to the usual film marketing sites for our movies (though you’ll get lots of great Focus film-specific content here, don’t worry!), we decided to create a place that expresses our joy in movies, our admiration for great filmmaking, and our insatiable curiosity about film and the discussions that truly challenging films engender, wherever they may come from. Please feel free to join the discussion whenever and however you wish; as you can see from the enormous wealth of content and resources we’ve created and brought together here, we’re excited by the diversity of opinions and interests that makes movie culture so vibrant. And please be assured that if you do join us, your thoughts (yes, even critical ones) will be respected: civility, and genuine dialogue, will have pride of place, so please feel confident that if you want to participate in real, grown-up discussion about anything film-related here, you’ll be more than welcome. In the meantime, it’s a pleasure to introduce the people and ideas of FilmInFocus to you. Enjoy!
