Lorimar Productions began to produce movies in 1971, starting with the independent film The Sporting Club. Later on, the company acquired the Allied Artists Pictures library in 1980 when said company went under, but it didn't have its own movie arm until April 21, 1986 when Lorimar-Telepictures was formed by the merging of Lorimar with Telepictures, forming "Lorimar Motion Pictures"; however, these television divisions became separate companies in 1988, and this film unit was reincorporated as "Lorimar Film Entertainment", closing definitively in 1990. Today, most of the Lorimar movie releases, with some exceptions, are currently held by Warner Bros. Entertainment. | |||
