A similar film that Colombia pictures has made is 'Girl Interrupted' about a young woman that is put in to a mental hospital. The similar themes are mental illness. A particular film that is similar to my thriller is 'Girl Interrupted'. Below is a video extract from this film.
Although the story line is completely different there are many similar qualities including the mental hospital, and the long corridors with the bright white lights that has a clinical feel that is exactly what we want in our film. You also get an insight in to the life's of the other patients in the hospital as a background feature. Columbia pictures make high budget films with big named stars for example Girl Interrupted budget was roughly 40,000,000 and it starred famous actresses Angelina Jolie and Brittany Murphy. I could see my product being advertised on their website because it attracts a variety of different audiences with each film being different. The website is bold and striking and i think my films storyline has this sort of theme that can attract many different people. Below is a link to the institutions website.

I would make money from my film by showing it in a chain cinema as i would want it to be shown to as many people as possible worldwide and not specific audiences as i think this film could interest people in different ways. For example young people might be interested in the idea of a mental hospital as they might not be familiar with what it is like.I would then release it on DVD as this would give people who hadn't seen it in cinema a chance to see it and would attract other types of audience who might not normally watch this this type of genre. This film company does not specialize in a particular genre as they attract a variety of audience for example 'surfs up' an animated film compared to 'Flick' a comedy film featuring Adam Sandler. Columbia pictures specialize in high budget pictures for example 'Surfs up' had a budget for 100 million pounds. Columbia pictures have no particular target audience as there is huge variety in their range of films for example quantum of solace, The pursuit of happyness, surfs up and Gandhi.
