This was in my local newspaper in Melb.

DEVOTED to creating powerful, quality films, United Artists was formed in 1919 by entertainment legends Mary Pickford, Charles Chaplin, Douglas Fairbanks and D.W. Griffith.

The aim was to encourage progressive filmmaking, giving each star the authority and autonomy to create the films about which they were most passionate.

The studio was responsible for creating some of the finest films of all time, including iconic film franchises Rocky, Pink Panther and James Bond and the critically-acclaimed features Raging Bull, Some Like It Hot, West Side Story, Annie Hall, Midnight Cowboy and Rain Man.

It has a library of nearly 500 feature films and boasts more than 80 Academy Award-winning classics.

To help celebrate United Artists 90th anniversary, 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment and the Leader are offering readers the chance to win one of five ``money can’t buy’’ UA 90th Anniversary Box Gift Sets.

Each set (valued at $999) includes 30 unmissable movies by United Artists, from six different decades, including Some Like It Hot, West Side Story, Annie Hall and Rain Man.
