Major Film Studio Assignment: RKO Pictures

Hey, this is just a little assignment I'm doing on here. I had to get in a group to study one of the 5 major film studios of the Golden Age of Film, and we were assigned RKO Pictures. We have to answer 6 questions with a blog post, so here that is:

1) Who created the studio and when?

David Sarnoff created the studio in 1928.

2) What major stars worked in that studio?

Most notably Fred Astaire and Ginger Roberts.

3) What famous movies did they make?

King Kong (1933) and Citizen Kane (1941).

4) What is the studio known for?

Musicals starring Astaire and Roberts, but also their two most famous movies, and many B-movies.

5) Is the studio a major studio today?  

No, it became defunct in 1959.

6) What movies or TV shows have they produced recently?

N/A.

Well, there's that. Next blog post about my new music video coming very soon.
