You are a film producer and your aim is to make quality, successful films and make as much money as possible through the box office. If your film makes an Oscar, great. If it is a flop, oh dear. To make a film you need a film story, a director, a male film star, a female film star and the relevant number of location units. Films range from epics to comedies, westerns, horrors, historical stories and musicals. All the better if you can match the film stars who have the most experience in particular roles to the type of film you are making.

The winner is the player who made films to the highest value plus the value of all assets and cash held. A clever and colourful board game made more interesting by the wide range of unique colour cards collected during game play.

 

No year of production is marked on the game board, box or rules leaflet but the style indicates late 1970s. Made in England.

This game was a forerunner to the 1990 Waddingtons game Hollywood.
