Rembrandt Films is a Czech production company founded by American film producer William L. Snyder in 1949. It focused on animated productions after initially working as an importer of films from Europe. The studio's animation director was Gene Deitch.
Rembrandt Films' productions include the Oscar-winning short Munro, the Nudnik series, and animated adaptations of children's books, including Anatole, Madeline, and Many Moons, which were included in the 1966 compilation film Alice of Wonderland in Paris. Rembrandt collaborated with Halas and Batchelor to produce some of the episodes of the Popeye the Sailor television series in the early 1960s.
