Orion Pictures
In the years ahead, Orion produced very few films, and primarily released films from other producers, including LIVE Entertainment. Orion Classics, minus its founders (who had moved to Sony Pictures Entertainment and founded Sony Pictures Classics), continued to acquire popular art-house films, such as "Boxing Helena" (1993), before Metromedia merged the subsidiary with Samuel Goldwyn Entertainment in 1996.
