Picturehouse is a film distribution and marketing company focused on the future of how independent cinema is created, shared and experienced worldwide.
“Every distributor said ‘No’ until Picturehouse. Only Bob Berney saw it. Bob said, ‘I believe in this movie exactly as you want it.’ Because everyone would say ‘Do it in English. Don’t kill the girl at the end. Take out the violence.’ And I wanted to make it exactly as you see.
“Bob is unique. He believes in the filmmaker and he believes that the best way to deal with a piece of film is on its own terms. He doesn’t want to superimpose marketing or superimpose what he thinks. There’s that story that a sculptor looks at a block of marble until he sees a sculpture inside. That’s Bob. He’s as close to a marketing and distribution sculptor as I’ve ever seen.” -Guillermo del Toro @RealGDT, Deadline @DEADLINE

"PAN'S LABYRINTH is the film I’m really most proud of over my career. Picturehouse came in early and there were so many reasons I was given not to do it, but my boss at the time, Michael Lynne, told me that he believed in me and Guillermo @RealGDT and to go for it. The film’s path was amazing but what I really gained was insight and friendship from a master director whose humanity shines through." -Bob Berney

Bob Berney on Five Wild Decades at Sundance, and Chasing Movies No One Else Wanted Like ‘Memento’ and ‘Donnie Darko’ https://t.co/Jb68NRuzMw via @IndieWire
Ukraine is like porcelain – easy to break, but impossible to destroy. #PorcelainWar is one of the most decorated documentary features of the year. In select theaters November 22.
“I’m not sure how political any of the big streamers or broadcasters or CNN want to be, probably not at all,” said Bob Berney, chief executive of Picturehouse, an indie film marketing and distribution company. “I think some of the films have a chance, but it has to happen now. They have to be ready to go the day after Telluride. The shelf life is limited.”
