History

Founded by the brothers Harvey and Bob Weinstein in Buffalo, New York in 1979, the company was named by combining the first names of their parents Max and Miriam, and was originally created to distribute independent films deemed commercially unfeasible by the major studios. Harvey Weinstein, CBE (Hon (born March 19, 1952) is an American Film producer and movie studio chairman For the Mayor of Ketchikan Alaska, see Bob Weinstein (Mayor.

Among the company's other breakthrough films as distributors in the late 1980s and early 1990s were Scandal, sex, lies, and videotape, Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down! and The Crying Game.

The film was directed by John Madden and co-written by playwright

In addition to those successes, Miramax acquired and/or produced many films that did extraordinarily well financially. The company became one of the leaders of the independent film revolution of the 1990s. Miramax produced or distributed seven films with box office grosses totalling more than $100 million; its most successful title, Chicago, earned more than $300 million worldwide.

Criticism

My Scene is a line of Fashion dolls introduced by Mattel in 2002 In Search of Santa is a 2004 Film directed by William R Kowalchuk. The Adventures of Tom Thumb and Thumbelina is a 2002 Direct-to-video animated film which was directed by Glenn Chaika The NeverEnding Story III ( 1994) is the second sequel to the Fantasy film The NeverEnding Story.

One notable example is Iron Monkey, which though released subtitled, had its subtitles altered to remove the political context of the story, had scenes trimmed and changed for violence and pacing, and had the soundtrack changed, removing the famous Wong Fei Hung theme. Iron Monkey ( Literal Title "Young Wong Fei Hung Iron Monkey" a 1993 Hong Kong martial arts - action film called Other films that they have altered in this way include Shaolin Soccer, Farewell My Concubine (theatrical release) and Jet Li's Fist of Legend, which was released both edited and dubbed, with no option to watch the DVD subtitled.

Under the Weinsteins, Miramax had a history of buying the rights to Asian films, only to sit on them without releasing them for some years. Asian cinema refers to the film industries and films produced in the continent of Asia. One example of this is Hero, a 2002 Chinese martial arts film. Hero ( is a 2002 Chinese Martial arts film, directed by Zhang Yimou with music by Tan Dun. The Chinese-language cinema has three distinct historical threads Cinema of Hong Kong, Cinema of China, and Cinema of Taiwan. For other uses see Martial arts (disambiguation Martial arts film is a Film genre that originated in the Pacific Rim. It languished in Miramax's vaults for two years before it was salvaged with the intervention of Quentin Tarantino. Quentin Jerome Tarantino (born March 27, 1963) is an Academy Award - BAFTA Award - and Palme d'Or -winning Emmy - and And sometimes Miramax purchased films only to never release them. An example of this is Tears of the Black Tiger, a Thai film. Tears of the Black Tiger (ฟ้าทะลายโจร or Fah talai jone, literally "the heavens strike the thief" is a 2000 The cinema of Thailand has a history that stretches back to early days of filmmaking, when King Chulalongkorn 's 1897 visit to Berne, After changing the ending of the film, Tears of the Black Tiger sat in Miramax's vaults for five years until its rights were purchased by Magnolia Pictures in 2006. Magnolia Pictures is an American Film Distributor, and is a holding of 2929 Entertainment, owned by Todd Wagner and Mark Cuban

One reason for the delays and non-releases of films was an accounting scheme the Weinsteins used to shift potential money-losing films to future fiscal years and ensure they would receive annual bonuses from Disney. A fiscal year (or financial year, or sometimes budget year) is a period used for calculating annual ("yearly" Financial statements in Businesses ^[3] while trying to bar retailers from selling authentic imported DVDs of the films. ^[4]

Many North American fans, wanting to see the films held up by Miramax, would seek out DVD versions of the films on the Internet from overseas dealers such as MonkeyPeaches. This Chinese movie website accused both its ISP and Miramax of "backstabbing" their site by threatening legal action with no prior warning, unless it immediately stopped selling Hero, which was still in US theaters. An Internet service provider ( ISP, also called Internet access provider or IAP) is a company which primarily offers their customers access to the Internet The ISP responded by shutting down the site. ^[5]

As a result of the Weinsteins' actions, a number of Asian producers who sold their distribution rights to the company refuse to do so for their subsequent films.

Defenders of the company point out that prior to Miramax most of the films purchased by the company would have had little to no chance of achieving US distribution other than by very small distributors with minimal marketing expertise and funds. They also state that the purpose of the company's aggressive re-editing technique was always to try help the films find a broader American audience than they might otherwise find.

"I'm not cutting for fun", Harvey Weinstein said in an interview. "I'm cutting for the shit to work. All my life I served one master: the film. I love movies. "^[6]
