===Background=== | |||
'''Alliance Atlantis''' was founded in 1998 as a merger of [[Alliance Entertainment Corporation|'''Alliance''' Entertainment Corporation]] and [[Atlantis Communications|'''Atlantis''' Communications]], which were founded in 1985 and 1978, respectively. The company operated both an English and French-Canadian division, the latter under the name "Alliance Atlantis Vivafilm" (formerly "Vivafilm Ltée"). | |||
Alliance Atlantis was acquired by [[Canwest Media|Canwest]] and the private equity arm of Goldman Sachs in 2007. The company's specialty television services were sold to [[Corus Entertainment]], while its international operations were transferred to [[Echo Bridge Home Entertainment|Echo Bridge Entertainment]]. The movie business was relaunched independently as [[Alliance Films]], which was eventually acquired by [[Entertainment One]] six years later. However, the Alliance brand name survived in the form of Alliance Cinemas until 2021, when it was rebranded into Cineplex. | |||
