- Producers were rushed to sign the agreement with them because they pretended they were in a rush to the international film market and they really wanted to put our film in the roster.
- Brady Bowen (Archstone Distribution ) signed a contract on our behalf with Domestic Distributor and that contract states the producers are not on that contract. So domestic distributor will not provide us with accounting.
- Every time accounting was late and only arrived after numerous requests from producers. This was 1st breach of contract and failure by agent to do their duties and provide proper accounting on time.
- They attempted to steal our Domestic Advance even though the contact specifically stated not to be used for international expenses. They did correct the mistake but in process still faked accounting slightly so they can steal additional funds.
- Once they collected all the Market Fees and Expenses the sales of movie completely stopped and the next payment that was due to us was delayed by a year.
- Now producers have no choice but to proceed with action against the company and executives trying to recover stolen funds and new payments they collected. We believe they run an accounting scheme where they are paying bills and other payments to old clients from producer funds they don't own.
Independent and Established producers should be aware of Brady Bowen and Archstone Distribution shady business dealings, breach of contract, theft of accounting statements, and theft producer funds.
