Roy Export Company Establishment
- Roy Export Company Establishment
The Roy Export Company Establishment is a in-name-only dummy company that serves as the keeper of the film library of the late Charlie Chaplin.
In the 1970s, the Chaplin family entrusted Roy Export with the responsibility of holding the copyright and all film elements to the entire Charlie Chaplin film output, with the exception of "A Countess from Hong Kong" (Chaplin's final film that is the only one whose rights are held by the original distributor, in this case Universal Pictures). Summarily, the Chaplin estate is responsible for how and when these films can be released in any media.
Currently, French production company MK2 handles limited worldwide ancillary rights to the Chaplin library (licensee Export selected MK2 to handle these rights). The video rights have been sublicensed to Warner Home Video.
