Onyx Films

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Draft:Onyx Films)

Onyx Films was a film production business in Montreal, Quebec, Canada. It was founded in 1962 by Pierre Lamy and his brother André Lamy.[1][2] Their films include Le Viol d'une jeune fille douce ('The Rape of a Sweet Young Girl'), a satire. Gilles Carle worked with the film company on several productions.[3]

The Canadian Post Office and Royal Canadian Mounted Police had contracts with Onyx to make films in 1971.[4]

The 2010 documentary film La vie privée d'Onyx ('The Very Private Affair of Onyx') directed by Denys Desjardins is about the company's history.[5][6]
