StudioCanal
StudioCanal (a.k.a. Le Studio Canal+, Canal Plus, Canal+ Distribution, Canal+ Production, and Canal+ Image) is a French-based production (as StudioCanal S.A.) and distribution (as StudioCanal Images S.A.) company that owns the third-largest film library in the world. The company is a unit of the Canal+ Group, owned by Vivendi.
==Background==
The company was founded in 1988 by Pierre Lescure as a spin-off of the Canal+ pay-TV network. The original function was to focus on French and European productions, but later made strategic deals with American production companies. StudioCanal's most notable productions from its early years include ''Terminator 2: Judgment Day'', ''JFK'', ''Basic Instinct'', ''Cliffhanger'', ''Under Siege'', ''Free Willy'', and the original ''Stargate'' movie. In those days, it was known as Le Studio Canal+.
It has strong links to Universal Studios (Studiocanal and Universal Studios were owned by the same company between 2000 and 2004, hence StudioCanal co-produced a fair number of Universal's films).
Other films the company financed include ''U-571'', ''Bully'', and ''Bridget Jones's Diary''. StudioCanal also funded the last third of David Lynch's film ''Mulholland Drive''. StudioCanal also financed French-language films, such as ''Brotherhood of the Wolf'' (which became the second-highest-grossing French-language film in the United States in the last two decades) and ''Intimate Strangers'' (which is being remade by Hollywood-based Paramount Pictures).The biggest box office hits for StudioCanal have been ''Terminator 2: Judgment Day'' which grossed US$519 million, ''Basic Instinct'' which grossed US$352 million and ''The Tourist'' which grossed US$278 million worldwide.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Terminator 2: Judgment Day )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Basic Instinct )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Tourist )〕
