Companies: Best Movies & TV Shows/Series by Pathé

Pathé (French: [pate]; styled as PATHÉ!) is a major film production and distribution company, owning a number of cinema chains through its subsidiary Pathé Cinémas and television networks across Europe. It is the name of a network of French businesses that were founded and originally run by the Pathé Brothers of France starting in 1896. In the early 1900s, Pathé became the world's largest film equipment and production company, as well as a major producer of phonograph records. In 1908, Pathé invented the newsreel that was shown in cinemas before a feature film. Pathé is the second-oldest operating film company, behind Gaumont Film Company, which was established in 1895. ()
