Searchlight Pictures “Can’t Be Competitive” With Giants Like Netflix But Score With “Humanity”: Exec

Searchlight Pictures (The Banshees of Inisherin, Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, Poor ThingsAll of Us Strangers, Jojo Rabbit, Boys Don’t Cry, Napoleon Dynamite, Little Miss Sunshine) top executive Katie Goodson-Thomas told the BFI London Film Festival (LFF) on Tuesday how passion and “humanity” make the studio special even though it gets “priced out” by streaming giants on a daily basis.
