I think I would like to incorporate action as the sub-genre for my film. A perfect example
of an action thriller film, includes the Taken film series. The Production Company that has
both produced and distributed the Taken Film series is EuropaCorp, which is one of the
major film producers in France and Europe, head-quartered in Saint-Denis near Paris – and
one of only a few fully integrated independent studios that both produces and distributes
feature films.
