Samuel Goldwyn Films, LLC is an American film company that licenses, releases and distributes art-house, independent and foreign films. It was founded by Samuel Goldwyn Jr., the son of the Hollywood business magnate/mogul, Samuel Goldwyn. The current incarnation is a successor to The Samuel Goldwyn Company.
After The Samuel Goldwyn Company was acquired by Orion Pictures Corporation in 1996 and by MGM in 1997, Samuel Goldwyn Jr. founded Samuel Goldwyn Films as an independent production/distribution studio. Until his death, the younger Goldwyn owned sole rights to the use of the name and signature logo as part of the settlement of his 1999 lawsuit against MGM, which changed its Goldwyn subsidiary's name to G2 Films. Goldwyn previously operated IDP Distribution, which distributed films for Fireworks Films, Stratosphere Entertainment, and Roadside Attractions.

Movies with sexual assault/rape in them
<p>This list was spawned from a conversation I had with a friend of mine, who was looking for some horror movie recommendations. Her only stipulation was: "No rape scenes." That got me thinking.</p><p>I feel like the prevalence of sexual assault in media can easily be dismissed unless the scope of the problem is visualized, so that's what this list is for. I really hope people that see this list don't think it's a celebration of the subject matter, or an "ooh, look at how scandalous this is!" kind of bullshit clickbait; rather, it's more of an experiment to see just how many movies there are featuring rape, and can maybe exist as a blanket trigger warning for people who are avid movie watchers but are cautious of rape scenes. There are spoilers here. Some of these movies' reputations precede themselves but others might be more of a surprise.</p><p>The rules are very simple. In order to qualify for this list, the movie must depict or imply the act of sexual assault, attempted or successful, or have rape serve as a major point in the plot. The sex of the victim or the perpetrator doesn't matter. The rape doesn't have to be the focus of the movie. It doesn't matter whether it's been played for laughs or not.</p><p>Obviously, this isn't really a nuanced list, nor is a movie's inclusion meant to be a mark of shame. Note that just because a movie is on this list doesn't mean that it was bad, or that the topic of rape was handled inappropriately, so you'll probably see a lot of B movie bullshit beside otherwise fantastic films. There's a world of difference between movies like Mad Max: Fury Road and, say, Gutterballs. The point is to illustrate how many movies out there have rape or attempted rape in them.</p><p>Check the notes for details. I haven't seen most of these, so I could be misinformed about some of the movies in this list. Pleaaaase let me know if I've gotten something wrong. Remember that all suggestions will always be welcome, as this is an ongoing project that I will continue for the duration of my membership on Letterboxd, and as long as I keep watching movies. My goal is to document as many movies that fit the criteria above as possible, no matter how obscure, lowbrow or seemingly insignificant.</p><p>IMPORTANT NOTE: Something I forgot to mention was that documentaries that address sexual assault/rape (such as The Hunting Ground, Catching the Friedmans, The Invisible War) will not be included in this list, since it's more about the use of rape as a plot device in media.</p><p><b>OTHER LISTS ADDRESSING SEXUAL ASSAULT:</b><br /><a href="https://letterboxd.com/liveandrew/list/genre-exploitation-rape-and-revenge-100-years/" rel="nofollow">Exploitation: Rape and Revenge (100 Years)</a></p>

Black List Scripts Films & TV Series
Since 2005, each December, the Black List releases its annual list, a survey of the most liked unproduced screenplays of that year. The annual lists are aggregated using votes from film executives working in the film industry.
The annual lists have included such Oscar winning films as JUNO, THE KING’S SPEECH and ARGO.
At its heart the annual Black Lists are meant to shine a light on extraordinary screenwriting, some of which may have been overlooked more broadly.

Stuff by women, about women
<p>Must have a woman as its:<br />☑️ lead, co-lead, or subject;<br />☑️ director or co-director; <i><b>and</b></i><br />☑️ writer or co-writer (screenplay, story, or source material).</p><p>If you happen to find the comments open and notice there’s anything missing <i><b>that fits the criteria above</b></i>—particularly non-American films—feel free to let me know. I get a lot of notifications on this list so I seldom reply, but if your suggestion belongs here I’ll add it.</p><p>This list is curated to invite reflection upon women’s perceptions and depictions of themselves and/or other women as they are presented through the medium of cinema, as films made by <i>and</i> about women are among the minority worldwide. For those interested, stats and research into this subject are available on the website of San Diego State University’s <a href="https://womenintvfilm.sdsu.edu/research/" rel="nofollow">Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film</a>.</p><p><b>As of January 2026, this list contains films in 86 languages from 147 countries and over 3,750 directors across a timespan of 121 years.</b> See the <a href="https://letterboxd.com/meagan/list/stuff-by-women-about-women/stats/" rel="nofollow">Stats</a> page for more.</p><p>Special congratulations to @M█████_F██████ (now blocked and thus his comments are hidden) for accidentally summing up more succinctly than I ever could why this list exists, while simultaneously missing the point:</p><blockquote><p>I’m thinking of making a list of films made by men. That would take me an infinite number of years 😂😂😂😂 .</p></blockquote><p>Since this list is much less time-consuming to make—enjoy!</p><p>- - - - - - - - - - -</p><p><b><i>Update 11/16/24:</i></b> As a courtesy to the Christmasheads, all Christmas movies are now cross-listed on <a href="https://boxd.it/ArHaC" rel="nofollow"><b>Christmas stuff by women, about women</b></a>.</p><p><b><i>Update 2/4/24:</i></b> (1) All stand-up specials, stage performances, concerts, music videos, “behind-the-scenes” and “making-of” films, standalone TV show episodes, and all other similar listings have been migrated over to a new list: <a href="https://boxd.it/stSBG" rel="nofollow"><b><i>More</i> stuff by women, about women</b></a>. Documentaries and miniseries remain on the main list along with regular ol’ movies. (2) This list is now sorted by Average Rating (High to Low).

The World is Hell: Hopeless Cinema
<p>Pessimistic worldviews. For when you want to wallow in despair.</p><p>It doesn't matter if we all die.</p><p>Suggestions welcome.</p><p><br />NOTE: the criteria for films on this list is not merely that they have sad endings. In fact, sad endings are not even a requirement.</p><p>DISCLAIMER: This list started off as the first fifty-ish. All subsequent films are suggestions. I have therefore not seen all films on this list.</p><p>ADDITIONAL NOTE: This list has grown way beyond what I expected. I also understand that some are dissatisfied by the films in this list. I sympathise. This was not the list I set out to make. <i>Sátántangó</i> and <i>Salò</i> are not the same as <i>Fight Club</i>. But every single one of these films was suggested by someone. To someone, each of these films matched the title of this list. So this isn't my personal project any more, this is a community list. It should also be said that due to this, please do not expect this list to be nuanced. The title is a generalisation and different degrees of hopelessness are reflected across these films.</p><p>FURTHER NOTE: As this list became unwieldy and difficult to maintain, I have decided to cap it at 1000 films for now. For every suggestion I add, I now remove a film. So it is a rotating list of depressing movies. Feel free to politely tell me which films you think don't belong here. </p><p>---</p><p><a href="https://letterboxd.com/darrencb/tag/lists:-suggestions/lists/" rel="nofollow">Contribute to my other lists here.</a></p>
<p><a href="https://boxd.it/3ZVxm" rel="nofollow"><b>Check out the official top 100 narrative feature films by women directors list</b></a></p><p><b>FAQ (please read before commenting)</b></p><p><b>1) Why is [movie by male director] on here?</b><br />In most cases (Slumdog Millionaire, The Act of Killing, Out 1, Bela Tarr's movies) there's a female co-director who isn't credited everywhere. When it comes to new movies the reason is often that by the time I added the movie they credited as co-director and the credit was later changed to something else. Most of the time it's explained somewhere in the comments but of course it's possible that I accidentally added something that shouldn't be on here.<br /><b>2) Why is everything pink?????</b><br />It's sorted by colour, which you would notice if you spent more than 10 seconds looking at the list before commenting.<br /><b>3) Why is [movie by trans director] on here?</b><br />Trans women are women, if they made movies before they came out as trans women I'm gonna include it.<br /><b>4) What's the point of this list?</b><br />Female directors are still underrepresented in the film industry and this list is a place to highlight their movies no matter how good or bad they might be. If you want to watch more movies directed by women but are overwhelmed by the amount of movies on here I'd recommend you <a href="https://boxd.it/2qIJg" rel="nofollow">this list.</a><br /><b>5) Do you add shorts?</b><br />No. The list is already long enough as it is. Unfortunately that means I can't include a lot of silent films but I have a separate list for them <a href="https://boxd.it/ZL2G" rel="nofollow">over here.</a><br /><b>6) Do you take recommendations?</b><br />Yes!!</p>
