Jeff Sackman leaving ThinkFilm


April 16, 2008 ThinkFilm president Jeff Sackman is leaving the indie distributor he co-founded seven years ago, with plans for his Toronto office to be shuttered. When Capco purchased the company, it was forced to arrange an exclusive output deal with Canadian distributor Entertainment One and Seville Pictures to comply with Canada's laws on foreign-owned companies. When the purchase was arranged, Capco planned to add several $15 million-$20 million films to ThinkFilm's annual slate and create a wider distribution network through its London-based film financing and sales outfit Capitol Films.
