[ Originally, the company's films were intended for television screenings alone; the "holdback" system prevented investment in theatrical films by television companies because of the length of time (then three years) before broadcasters could screen them. An agreement soon concluded with the Cinema Exhibitors Association allowed a brief period of cinema exhibition if the budget of the films was below £1.25 million.] Channel Four Films struck several deals with other film production companies including the BFI Production Board, Goldcrest Films and Merchant Ivory.[ By 1984, Channel Four Films were investing in a third of the feature films made in the UK.][Susan Emanue]

Channel Four Film's first big hit was Frears' third feature film for the cinema, '' My Beautiful Laundrette'', in 1985.][ Originally shot in 16mm for Channel 4 it was met with such critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Film Festival that it was acquired by Orion Classics and distributed to cinemas and became an international success.][
In 1987, FilmFour International agreed a licensing deal with Orion Classics to handle US distribution of two more FilmFour features, '' Rita, Sue and Bob Too'' and '' A Month in the Country''. By 1987, Channel 4 had an interest in half the films being made in the United Kingdom.
Rose and Channel Four Films are credited by many as being a significant figure in the regeneration of British cinema and particularly remembered for films such as '' Wish You Were Here'', '' Dance With a Stranger'', '']Mona Lisa
The ''Mona Lisa'' is a half-length portrait painting by the Italian artist Leonardo da Vinci. Considered an archetypal masterpiece of the Italian Renaissance, it has been described as "the best known, the most visited, the most written about, ...
'', and '' Letter to Brezhnev''. Channel Four Films also invested in early Working Title Films as well as most of the films of Frears, Ken Loach and Mike Leigh.[ Leigh told writer Hannah Rothschild around 2008 that Film on Four had saved the British film industry: "This is a non-negotiable, historical fact of life and anybody who suggests that this isn't the case is simply either suffering from some kind of ignorance or has got some terrible chip."]
Rose remained in his post as Commissioning Editor until March 1990. During his tenure at Channel 4, Rose approved the making of 136 films, half of which received cinema screenings. Of the films Rose backed, 20 were from overseas sources, including work by directors Theo Angelopoulos

The following year, Mike Newell's '' Four Weddings and a Funeral'' became the highest-grossing UK film of all time and Danny Boyle's '' Trainspotting'' (1996) was also very successful.][
In the 1990s, Channel Four partnered with ]The Samuel Goldwyn Company

Its first release was '' Blue Juice'' (1995) and its first major successes were '' Secrets & Lies'' and '' Brassed Off'' in 1996.[
In 1998, the company was re-branded as FilmFour with an annual budget of £32 million for 8 to 10 films.][ '' East Is East'' (1999) becomes their biggest self-funded film.][ In 2000, the company signed a three-year deal with Warner Bros. to make seven films with budgets of more than £13 million but their first, '' Charlotte Gray'' (2001) was not the success they hoped for.][
The company cut its budget and staff significantly in 2002, due to mounting losses, and was reintegrated into the drama department of Channel 4. The name "Film4 Productions" was introduced in 2006 to tie in with the relaunch of the FilmFour broadcast channel as Film4.
Tessa Ross was head of both Film4 and Channel 4 drama from 2002 to 2014.
