OPINION OF THE COURT

COWEN, Circuit Judge.

This appeal arises from an order of the district court granting summary judgment in favor of the defendants. Upon review, we conclude that the plaintiffs failed to present sufficient evidence in support of their claims that defendant Fox willfully monopolized the exhibition of first-run films in violation of section 2, and that Fox conspired separately with the individual distributor defendants in violation of section 1, of the Sherman Act. Therefore, we will affirm the district court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the defendants.
