ThinkFilm (stylized as TH!NKFilm) was an American film distribution company founded in September 2001. It had been a division of David Bergstein’s Capitol Films since 2006.
On October 5, 2010, five of Bergstein's companies in the film industry — Capitol Films, ThinkFilm, R2D2, CT-1, and Capco — were forced into Chapter 11 bankruptcy by a group of creditors led by the Aramid Entertainment film investment fund seeking payment for outstanding debts of $16 million.The Wrap, October 06, 2010: Bergstein's ThinkFilm, Capitol Films Declared Bankrupt Retrieved 2013-02-27The Hollywood Reporter, March 29, 2012: How Ron Tudor and David Bergstein's Friendship Went Sour Retrieved 2013-02-27The Hollywood Reporter, March 12, 2012: Judge: Ronald Tudor Can't Escape Lawsuit Against David Bergstein Companies Retrieved 2013-02-27The Hollywood Reporter, December 4, 2012: David Bergstein Sues Bankruptcy Trustee for Trying to 'Destroy' Him Retrieved 2013-02-27Deadline Hollywood, September 25, 2012: Film Financier David Bergstein’s Suit Against Law Firms Dismissed Retrieved 2013-02-27Deadline Hollywood, April 9, 2012: David Bergstein Lawsuit Claims He Was Shoved Aside After Miramax Sale Retrieved 2013-02-27
