		Twentieth (20th) Century Fox Film Corporation (known from 1935 to 1985 as Twentieth Century-Fox Film Corporation) is one of the major American film studios.
		Begun in mid-1933, releasing four to six pictures a year through United Artists, Twentieth Century was a success, in part due to financial backing from Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer (which ended up merging with UA in 1981).
		"Twentieth Century Fox" is also the punning title of a song by The Doors on their self-titled debut album (1967), referring to a foxy lady.

	Sillman v Twentieth Century Fox Film Corp.
		National also agreed to give Twentieth Century a "Notice of Irrevocable Authority" directing the latter to pay to Chemical Bank and Trust Company for the accounts of Swarttz and of plaintiffs their percentages of the profits and that the bank was to pay these sums directly to Swarttz and plaintiffs.
		Under its terms, National is to furnish Twentieth Century with 7 to 10 pictures during the ensuing 7 years, each picture to cost a minimum of $400,000 and to be free from all incumbrances and from the claims of owners of any material used in the pictures.
		Acceptance of the picture by Twentieth Century shall not be construed to release or relieve National of any of its representations, warranties, indemnities or covenants in the agreement, one of which was to "discharge (1) all claims".

	FILM RADAR: Darryl Francis Zanuck: His Rise to the Top as a Studio Mogul
		As long as Twentieth Century was dependent upon United Artists for distribution, Samuel Goldwyn for a studio lot, and MGM for money and talent, Darryl F. Zanuck would not reap the benefits from all of his hard work, and he would not be the master of his own destiny.
		Twentieth Century had a net worth of only $4 million, made $1.7 million in annual profits, and owned no studio lot, distribution apparatus or theaters.
		His motto was “Stars don’t make pictures, pictures make stars,” and he spared no expense at $1 million per film to pay for all the action and spectacle.

	Characteristics of Twentieth Century Newspapers
		Thus, investigative reporting, albeit with sensational effects, was used periodically in the twentieth century press to ferret out national scandals.
		The number of loyal readers of the 20th century tabloids signify that readers' insatiable appetite for gossip was not just a 19th century phenomenon but is an inherent characteristic of human nature.
		There will be no place in the twentieth century journalism for the lying reporter or the fraudulent editor.

	Twentieth Century World - Review of CD-ROM
		The approach to the subject is reasonably objective, and the anonymous authors don't shy away from difficult issues such as the Nazi death camps, the British domination of Ireland, or the humiliation of the French in Indo-China.
		The pictures are taken from photographs, magazines, and newspapers, and they are fairly good quality, except some of the smaller coloured selections taken from older sources.
		Most of the pictures, apart from portraits of people like Trotsky and Lenin, I had not seen before.

	The Formation of Twentieth Century-Fox (20th Century Fox)
		Twentieth Century Pictures was organized in April 1933 as a showcase for the talented 30-year-old producer who resigned from Warners after a salary dispute earlier that year.
		Twentieth Century signed a distribution deal with United Artists in July 1933, and quickly became the most prolific supplier of films for the distributor.
		Even though Twentieth Century, one of the most high-profile independent companies, had abandoned the independent movement, Darryl Zanuck's initial step of leaving Warners to form his own company had a trigger effect on other studio executives and creative personnel who desired to go independent.

		Paramount Pictures, Twentieth Century-Fox, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and other film companies are watching television development with a careful eye and laying their own plans in a very hush-hush way.
		The film companies are interested in television because they have much at stake in the production of motion pictures, in their ownership of theaters, and in their relations with independent theater owners.
		Some movie companies are asking as much as $400 for a single showing of a feature picture that is eight or ten years old, even if it is only going to be viewed by a few television set owners.

	Taking pictures in the twentieth century (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		One of the most intriguing, and which I only mention in passing here, is the degree to which art and intellectual life in general in the United States was emerging in the decade of the 1910s from a state of provincialism and beginning to address itself to "world-historical" problems.
		The pictures of bowls, pears and jugs, on tables or porch floors, in sunlight or shadow are austere and elegant.
		Indeed, it is a commentary on the speed with which events took place in the middle of the twentieth century that Edward Steichen, who was already active as a photographer when Paul Strand came onto the artistic scene, delivered a speech at a memorial service for Capa.

	20th Century Fox - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the next few years, with pictures like Wilson, Gentleman's Agreement, The Snake Pit, Boomerang and Pinkie, Zanuck established a reputation for provocative, adult films.
		In February, 1953, Zanuck announced that henceforth all Fox pictures would be made in CinemaScope.
		With few pictures on the schedule, Skouras wanted to rush Zanuck's big-budget war epic The Longest Day into release as another source of quick cash.

	20th Century Fox Records
		The 20th Century Fox Film Corporation was formed in 1935 through a merger of Darryl Zanuck's Twentieth Century Pictures and William Fox's Fox Studios, who produced the Movietone Newsreels.
		The financial story of 20th Century Fox Films before the 1980s is not one of unending success, as several times between 1913, when William Fox started his company, and the 1980s the corporation was in dire financial straits (including 1935, when the merger with Zanuck took place).
		Although 20th Century Fox was hardly a "major" label in the sense that longtime players like Decca, Capitol, Columbia, RCA, or even relative newcomer Atlantic were, they were backed by a large corporation and should have been more successful than they turned out to be, especially in the 1960s.

	Twentieth Century Pictures - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Twentieth Century Pictures was an independent Hollywood motion picture production company created in 1932 by Joseph Schenck, the former president of United Artists, Darryl F. Zanuck from Warner Brothers, and William Goetz from Fox Films.

		In 1935, they merged with the financially strapped Fox Film Corporation to create 20th Century-Fox Film Corp. which eventually dropped the hyphen in 1985, around the same time the studio was taken over by Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation.
