Francis, Day & Hunter Ltd v Twentieth Century Fox Corp
''Francis, Day & Hunter Ltd v Twentieth Century Fox Corp'' is a leading Judicial Committee of the Privy Council opinion on copyright law.
==Background==
In 1892, Francis, Day and Hunter had released a song titled "The Man who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo", which was written and composed by Fred Gilbert. It acquired copyright under the ''Copyright Act 1842'', but failed to acquire the parallel performing right under the ''Copyright (Musical Compositions) Act 1882'' because the published copies lacked a notice of reservation of such right.
Gilbert died intestate in 1903, at which time British copyright law stated that copyright in his works would lapse in 1934. However, the ''Copyright Act 1911'' extended it until the end of 1953.
In 1935, 20th Century Fox released the film ''The Man Who Broke the Bank at Monte Carlo'', which (other than the title) had no other connection to the song. As it was exhibited in various theatres in Canada, Francis sued in the Supreme Court of Ontario for infringement of copyright by performance in public, infringement of the literary copyright, and for passing off.
