Deep Dive

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes

Trivia

Zanuck was only 28 when his father Darryl made him head of 20th Century Fox, making him the youngest studio chief in Hollywood history.

Insight

The documentary's title comes from Zanuck's actual negotiation tactic—he'd barrel through objections until deals closed, a method that built and rebuilt his empire twice.
