For the vast majority of their existence, A24 has been a distributor of motion pictures. That means they find movies that other people have already made, and they manage the film’s release.

That’s totally fine, as far as it goes. Like a popstar who doesn’t write their own material but has an incredible ear for a hit, there’s a certain artistry to curation, too.
