In the weeks leading up to the 89th Oscars on Sunday, Feb. 26, we’ll take a look at our rich Academy Award history by sharing from the 20th Century Fox Archives.
This year, Justin Timberlake, Max Martin and Karl Johan Schuster are nominated for the song “Can’t Stop the Feeling” from the film “Trolls” (distributed by 20th Century Fox Film) in the Music (Original Song) category. On March 21, 1956, Paul Francis Webster and Sammy Fain won in this category for the song “Love is a Many-Splendored Thing” (from the film by the same name). Below are a few pieces from our Photograph, Publicity and Music collections highlighting this film.

The Fox Archives is mandated to collect, catalog, preserve and make accessible the following assets of the 20th Century Fox studios: props, set decoration, photographs, art department and publicity materials from our film and television productions, and from the 20th Century Fox studio itself. We work primarily with internal Fox groups but also from time to time with outside organizations such as the Museum of Modern Art in New York, and Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry.
