Institution research What conglomerates would distribute my movie?

Warner Bros.• I believe that Warner Bros would distribute my movie because they have a fantastic

track record of producing and distributing crime movies. They have produced and distributed some of the best crime movies of all time from various different eras such as the modern classic by Martin Scorsese, The Departed. They also made the 30s classic The Public Enemy which is still regarded to this day as one of the best crime movies made. Warner Bros. was considered the gangster studio par excellence, and the star- triumvirate of Warner's gangster cycle, all actors who established and defined their careers as tough-guys in this genre, included Edward G. Robinson, James Cagney, and Humphrey Bogart. Others who were early gangster stars included Paul Muni and George Raft.

• Three great classic gangster films marked the genre's popular acceptance and started the wave of gangster films in the 1930s in the sound era. These films were Little Caesar (1930), The Public Enemy (1931) and Scarface: The Shame of a Nation (1932). The lead role in each film (a gangster/criminal or bootleg racketeer of the Prohibition Era) was glorified as he rose to the top with infamy and power, but each one ultimately met his doom in the final violent scenes of these films, due to censors' demands that they receive moral retribution for their crimes.

20th Century Fox• 20th Century Fox would produce and distribute my movie

because in the modern climate of crime movies, they have made some of the best and critically acclaimed. Films such as Road To Perdition (2002) which was nominated for six Academy Awards and Taken 2 (2012) which grossed over $376 million at the box office have cemented Fox as a credible conglomerate that not only makes crime films that are critically acclaimed, but also movies that are commercially successful at the box office.

• Fox have also produced and distributed two of the highest grossing movies of all time in Titanic and Avatar so they have huge experience in knowing how to make a movie a success so if Fox distributed my movie, they would know how to make it a success at the box office.
