Sony Pictures Classics is an American film distribution label headquartered in New York City, founded in 1992 by Michael Barker, Tom Bernard and Marcie Bloom as a specialty division of Sony Pictures Entertainment dedicated to independent, foreign-language and art-house film. Under Barker and Bernard's continued co-presidency, the label has released and championed films including Whiplash, Amelie and Call Me by Your Name, building a reputation as one of the American film industry's most consistent distributors of awards-season and festival-circuit cinema. It operates with considerable independence from its parent studio's larger commercial releases, focusing on curated theatrical distribution of smaller films.
