Collateral
Appendix A provides the “tagline,” “logline,” and synopsis of the Motion Picture.

The screenplay writer is Les Golden.  The First Draft of the screenplay is completed and it has been registered with the Writers Guild of America-West, with registration number #1505108.  The copyright is held by Mr. Golden.  He is uniquely suited to write the play as both a professional card counter and gambling columnist, probability and statistics professor, and writer, actor, and stand-up comedian. Appendix B provides Mr. Golden’s brief biography.

Leslie M. Golden and his associates (“Producers”) seek capital contributors (“Investors”) to fund a portion of the estimated production budget of $10 million to $15 million on a profit-sharing basis.   Investment is also sought from a casino/resort where many of the location filming will occur in return for marketing considerations, and product placement.   The Producers’ goal is to achieve at least a 120% return on investment.

Gambling is a major American industry and many successful motion pictures have been made on the subject.  A thorough quantitative analysis of revenue history of motion pictures provides a strategy to effect a financially successful venture.  Rentals and sales through electronic media complement the theater box-office revenue stream.

INVESTMENT IN MOTION PICTURES IS A HIGH-RISK VENTURE.  NOTHING IN THIS PROSPECTUS SHALL BE CONSTRUED TO IMPLY ANY GUARANTEE OF A RETURN ON THE INVESTMENT TO THE INVESTOR.
