Background
Good Machine Productions was an independent film production, film distribution, and foreign sales company started in the early 1990s by its co-founders and producers, Ted Hope and James Schamus. David Linde joined in the late 90s to start the international sales company. They sold the company to Vivendi Universal (then-owner of Universal Studios) in 2002, which merged it with USA Films and Universal Focus to create Focus Features. Along with the heads of production development and business affairs (Anthony Bregman, Anne Carey, and Diana Victor), they went on to form the company This is That.
