Revelations Entertainment is an independent movie production company founded by actor Morgan Freeman and Lori McCreary in 1996. In 2006, Revelations became the first film production company in history to distribute a film (10 Items or Less) online while the movie was still playing in theaters. This was achieved by using (now-defunct) ClickStar (also founded by Freeman and McCreary as a joint venture with Intel Corporation) as their online distribution site.
