Focus Features announced today that it will make available three award-winning Movies from her library, to be broadcast on Facebook Live as part of the Focus Fridays holiday event.
The first show will take place on Saturday 26 August at 4.00 am (Friday 18:00 Pacific time 25 August) and the next two films the following two Saturdays. The films are: Motorcycle Diaries, Constant Gardener, and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, in this series. All will be broadcast live from the "Focus Features" page on Facebook.
This marks one of the first instances a studio has featured free movies on a social network.
The Facebook Live it was previously used to play pirated movies. Facebook introduced a feature called Rights last year Managers to find out if the videos you upload are protected by Copyright in an effort to curb piracy.
