The film is a vertical integration of Paramount, this is proven by paramount taking charge of most of the Distributional companies, and Paramount Provided most of the Funds for the Film, meaning Miramax being Subsidary of Paramount. The signs between Paramount and the Distributing companies proving to be horizontally integration is unlikely has most of the distributing companies were subsidiaries of Paramount. Overall the Film was a mixture of Both Horizontal and vertical Integration.
