Carlton International announce range of movie deals

Carlton International have sold a selection from their vast film library to various European channels and distribution companies.
The deals encompass a range of titles, from the new action movies produced by US production arm Carlton America, to timeless classics from the Rank, ITC and Korda libraries.
Crown Entertainment Ltd. has purchased a selection of Carlton America TV movies for broadcast on the Hallmark channel in the UK.
In France, TFI has acquired a range of TV movies as part of their existing output deal with Carlton International, including current MIPCOM launches, 'Code 1114' featuring an FBI agent who inadvertently puts his own family in danger aboard a plane over the Pacific ocean and 'Too Young To Be A Father'.
Several deals have also been finalised in Italy. These include a package of ITC and Rank titles to Italian distributor Virginia Films and a further package of Korda titles to Channel La Sette.
Emmanuelle Namiech, European Territory Manager at Carlton International, said: "Carlton International has one of the most impressive English language film libraries in the world today and it is very pleasing to begin this market with so many great deals just finalised. Our classics are continually re-licensed for each new generation's viewing and our TV movies are growing in reputation worldwide. These big-budget, celebrity-filled movies have made people reappraise this film genre and we are having tremendous sales success both with our catalogue and with new products."
