Fox Searchlight Questions

What huge conglomerate used to own them?

How would you summarise the kinds of films Fox Searchlight produces – budgets, genres, narrative

They are a big supporter of UK films – go through the lists on Wikipedia and name the British films that you have heard of.

Choose three examples from the last couple of years and write a paragraph on the production, distribution and exhibition of those three films including budget, genre and narrative and then add to your high/low budget comparison.
