OSCAR® WINNER SHIRLEY MACLAINE

The next NYFCS film screening will be Millenium Entertainment's "ELSA & FRED" The pre-release

"Elsa and Fred" is the story of two people who discover that it's never too late to love and make dreams come
true. Elsa has lived dreaming of a moment that Fellini had already envisaged: the scene in 'La Dolce Vita' at
the Fontana di Trevi.The same scene without Anita Ekberg in it, but with Elsa instead. Without Marcello
Mastroiani but with that love that took so long to arrive.

The NYFCS event will include an exclusive, live, interactive, HD Simulcast to 50 U.S. locations. The series
takes place exclusively in theaters and is never available on TV or the internet.

Up until now, live talent has only been accessible to the public in NY, LA and at festivals. Now everyone
throughout the country can enjoy up close and personal moments from major movie stars, producers, writers and
directors in the comfort of their own neighborhood theaters. Regional preview screenings are happening all the
time, but never with a live, talent conversation component. This is a comprehensive, industry wide turn-key
marketing tool complete with robust media and in-theater assets to 400+ screens.

A regular series of ongoing preview screenings is established in 50 select major markets. Audiences experience
all of the excitement of live Q &A sessions, hosted by Peter Travers. The big screen events deliver 9-13 curated
pre-release films per year to discerning audiences on a monthly basis. Each film in the screening series is
introduced live by Peter Travers. Audiences then see the best films prior to their release followed by live, HD
Q &A between Travers, audiences and talent from the films. Each piece brings the energy and VIP nature of
prestigious, NYC screenings for nationwide audiences to interact with stars and directors via two-way simulcast.


This is the first ever live national in-theater screening series which will entertain, educate, surprise, and refresh
the spirit of true independent and foreign language filmmaking through provocative story-telling. The NYFCS®
is dedicated to producing inspiring events in a collaborative environment and to nurturing the long-term success
