Historians have a saying - “What’s Past Is Prologue.”  As the last remaining private owners of Major Hollywood Studio Film Series, we are committed to the preservation, restoration and ongoing presentation of these classic and timeless films throughout
a variety of traditional and emerging media platforms.
For the true Hollywood Film Buff, the name of our company was inspired by the 1952 MGM classic “The Bad and the Beautiful” starring Kirk Douglas and Lana Turner.
We acquired the actual “Shields Crest” featured in this classic motion picture at auction in 1993 and proudly feature it on this website as well as on all of our original productions.
