Book review - "20th Century Fox" by Scott Eyman (2021)

 Eyman sets a high standard which he doesn't really live up to with this book. The time is ripe for a biography of the studio now Disney has bought it. This is really brief biographies of William Fox and then Daryl Zanuck. The post Zanuck years are like dealt with in one chapter. I had heard of most of the stories before. They're entertaining stories don't get me wrong. This just isn't as good as Eyman's epic bios on de Mille and Mayer and so on.
