I don't know who handled distribution but Manchester by the Sea was an Amazon original production that was in theaters but will be part of Prime Free streaming in a few months.

I think you have that backwards.. Manchester by the Sea distribution rights were picked up by Amazon (for ~$10M at Sundance last year). I don't believe they were involved at all in the production.
