CASE STUDY The owners.

The Co-chairpersons of Working Title Films are Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner. In the beginning, Tim Bevan and Sarah Radclyffe founded Working Title in 1984. In 1990 Radclyffe left working title films and with her gone Eric Fellner joined the company. In 1992  Bevan and Fellner went looking for a corporate backer. Polygram had agreed to back the company to help with their finance issues and they both went on to be the co-chairpersons of Working Title Films.  Currently, they have been listed as the most powerful figures in the British industry and in 2002 Premiere magazine put them at 41st in the world-wide movie power list.
