Distribution Company
In 1992, PolyGram partnered with Universal Pictures to create a joint venture called Gramercy Pictures. Gramercy primarily distributed PolyGram films in the USA. In 1997, PolyGram Filmed Entertainment Distribution was founded to release PFE's mainstream titles in the USA, while Gramercy became an low-budget sublabel. After PolyGram's folding into Universal in 1999, Gramercy merged with October Films to form USA Films, which eventually became Focus Features.
