re: has anyone here invested in movie productions through private offerings? if so, what's your take on them as an investment?

independents are about a 10,000 to one shot. i can think of about two that made it. "roger and me" and that mexican drug dealing thing that started with an "M". there are many more, but there are thousands that didn't for every one that did. the HOUSES really have the edge when it comes to making money in the film business (they have their share of failures too though)

...but i have a couple of scripts if you have some dough.<G>
