INVESTOR INFORMATION

for

The Man Who Beat Mark Spitz


What is the investment...?

An international award-winning screenplay to be turned into an award-winning film that has already been described as a combination of Forrest Gump & American Graffiti.

What are similar film costs...?

 The low budget model we hope to replicate is Napoleon Dynamite (2004), costing less than $400,000 yet grossed approximately $46 million.  A high end rough estimate to the film's total cost (after all, costs have gone up from 13 years ago) could possibly reach $2.5 million.  


How much can the film make...?

A comparable "sports film" made just down the road in Odessa, Texas is Friday Night Lights (2004), which cost $30 million and made $62 million at the box office - however - important to note is that 99% percent of those ticket sales were domestic, with only 1% or $694,849 coming from foreign sales. 

Unlike high school football in the USA, swimming & the connotation of the Olympics is a world-wide recognized sport & entity, which is a reason some efforts were made to test the story internationally in film festivals of other countries:




Thanks to an anonymous investor we have been able to hire retired IBM computer wiz & business analysis
to create a mathematical model based on only 20% of every competitive swimmer in the world seeing the movie, and the preliminary estimates so far of only factoring in the countries of Russia, Mexico, China & India looking very promising:
$68 million in foreign sales.

That's a very low 20% estimate in the above four countries alone, and perhaps for a more accurate percentage one could ask:

"What percentage of high school football players & coaches in your town saw
Friday Night Lights?"

Marcos' formula also computes those with other relationships to swimming as well as those interested in Olympic stories.
