About my production company.

Before I start i'd like to point out that this particular film had lots of Production Company's involved. So I chose the main one (or what I think is the main one) and at the bottom i'll list all the others.

The Weisntein Company is an american film studio founded by Bob and Harvey Weinstein in 2005 after they left -Disney-owned Miramax Films, which they had co-founded in 1979. Their first realeases included the dramatic thriller Derailed (starring Jennifer Aniston and Clive Owen), the offbeat comedy-drama Transamerica (starring Felicity Huffman) the computer-animated family film Hoodwinked, the World War II-era comedy-drama Mrs. Henderson Presents (starring Judi Dench and Bob Hoskins) and the caper comedy The Matador (starring Pierce Brosnan and Greg Kinnear).

In July 2006 the Weinstein brothers and Robert L. Johnson announced the creation of the venture studio titled Our Stories Films which then would distribute African-American-oriented films.

On May 24, 2007, The Weinstein Company announced the launch of three new direct-to-video labels: The Miriam Collection, Kaleidoscope TWC, and Dimension Extreme.

In 2009, TWC lost the rights to the movie Sin City 2. The first movie cost 40 million dollars to make and brought in almost 159 million in box office alone.

In June 2009, The Weinstein Company announced the hiring of a financial adviser to restructure the finances of the company

There's a few facts...:)
