Border-straddling distributor ThinkFilm has been sold to L.A.-based financier and producer David Bergstein in a deal made public on Oct 24. Jeff Sackman will continue to run its operations from Toronto as president and CEO. The value of the deal was not disclosed. Bergstein also recently bought U.K.-based Capitol Films.
