TORONTO -- Longtime Canadian movie acquisition and sales executive Charlotte Mickie is leaving Dreamachine to join veteran Canadian movie producer Robert Lantos at the Toronto-based Serendipity Point Films.
Mickie's move could signal Serendipity's expansion into distribution -- the company is expected to announce a new initiative in the immediate future -- but neither Lantos nor any of his representatives would comment Tuesday.
Mickie's move follows Lantos' unloading his stake in ThinkFilm late last year when the North American distributor was sold by founder and CEO Jeff Sackman to Los Angeles-based film financier David Bergstein.
Also joining Mickie is Tony Cianciotta, who worked alongside Mickie at Alliance Communications, the Canadian film and TV producer, when Lantos ran that company during the 1990s.
Mickie's new position follows Jeremy Thomas' HanWay Films merging with Celluloid Dreams to create Dreamachine, with offices in London, Paris and Toronto, in early April. Two executives who worked with her during her time at Dreamachine said she seemed unhappy in her new position.
