Legacy Releasing was an independent film distribution company based in California. It was founded in 1996 by Mark Borde and J. David Williams, veterans in the motion picture industry. The company's first two releases, ''Once Upon a Time...When We Were Colored'' and Robert Wuhl's ''Open Season'', were shown at the Cannes Film Festival the same year it was established. 〔()〕 Afterwards, it became a leader in independent distribution, releasing an average of 15 films per year. Notable films from the company included ''Little Men'', ''Wedding Bell Blues'', ''The Swan Princess II: Escape from Castle Mountain'', ''Shiloh'' (and its sequel, ''Shiloh Season''), and an animated version of ''Pippi Longstocking''. In 1999, Legacy was successfully merged and consolidated into Warner Home Video. Its highest-grossing film, ''When We Were Colored'', took close to $2.3 million at the U.S. box office. However, the home video business was booming at the time and was the economic engine of this company. 〔()〕 Borde is now the head of Freestyle Releasing. Williams is now the CEO of Marble Arch Entertainment. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Legacy Releasing」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
