Overview
[edit]Feature Films for Families (FFF) is a privately-held entertainment company based in the United States, established in 1988 by Forrest S. Baker III. Known for its focus on producing and distributing films that align with specific family values, FFF has a particular emphasis on content suitable for children, producing and distributes movies that didn't contain violence, nudity or profanity. The company operates with a foundation rooted in Mormon values[1], curating films that reflect these principles.
Controversies
[edit]In 2018 a Utah jury found Feature Films for Families Inc, along two other companies owned by Baker, guilty of engaging in deceptive and abusive telemarketing practices for making approximately 100 million calls to Do Not Call phones.[2] The judge imposed a penalty of $45.4 million but reduced it to $487,735 based on their inability to pay the full amount.[3]
