Background

Prestige Films was the short-lived arthouse film sub-arm of Miramax Films.

(December 12, 1990-March 18, 1992)

Nickname: "Searchlights"

Logo: On a black background, we see a searchlight moving from left to right (a la the 20th Century Fox and the 1990 King World logos) and moving back to the left side. We later see another searchlight on the left side as it criss-crosses with the other searchlight as it moves to the right side revealing the word "PRESTIGE" with a shadow effect. As the searchlight moves back to the left side, the searchlight reveals a stretched out thin diamond with the byline "A DIVISION OF MIRAMAX FILMS". All the the text is in blue/white gradient.

FX/SFX: The searchlights moving. The name and byline revealing. Simple '90s animation.

Music/Sounds: None.

Availability: Rare. Can be found on U.S. releases of The Miracle, American Dream, Tatie Danielle, and Uranus, among others.

Editor's Note: None.
