Pathé: Difference between revisions

'''Pathé''' is a major film production and distribution company, that owns a number of cinema chains through its subsidiary [[Les Cinémas Pathé Gaumont]] and television networks across Europe. It is the second oldest operating film company behind [[Gaumont]] which was established in September 28, 1896 by the four brothers Charles, Émile, Théophile, and Jacques '''Pathé''', and before [[Titanus]] (founded in 1904), [[Nordisk Film]] (founded in 1906), [[Universal Pictures]], [[Paramount Pictures]], and [[Nikkatsu Corporation]] (all founded in 1912). In 1942, the company was acquired by Adrien Ramauge and was later renamed to Pathé-Cinéma, while Pathé's distribution branch became [[AMLF]]. In 1990, [[Chargeurs]] purchased the Pathé-Cinéma group and resumed its film production business. AMLF was later folded into [[Pathé Distribution]] as a result.
