Al Marsiglia hasn't added a story.
My name is Al Marsiglia and I’m 92 years old. My fervent wish is to see my screenplay “Hangin Tough” on the big screen before God calls me. I’d also like to leave something for my family (my wife, three daughters, and their families.)It takes a lot of money to make a movie nowadays. I am trying to raise a million dollars in 90 days. I hope it is enough to make the movie.
With that money I believe, I will be able to hire a successful director and a professional producer to aid me with the details.
I’ve had many careers in my lifetime, but it wasn’t until I was in my seventies that I discovered I loved writing. I’ve written four novels. two children’s books, six screenplays, and a book on quitting smoking with hypnosis. (I am also a certified Hypnotherapist). All my books are available on Amazon.
I’ve also written 6 screenplays; If you’re interested in additional details of my life, you can Google my name: (Al Marsiglia).
Until 2020 everything was going along pretty well; I had a decent hypnotherapy practice by helping people to stop smoking in one hour. I thought I could save enough money to produce my feature screenplay “Hangin’ Tough.” This screenplay had won “Finalist” status in the prestigious Santa Barbara International Screenplay Awards--- I kn o w it will be a winner at the box office; It’s that kind of movie.---but th en fate stepped in.--- COVID-19. I had to shut down my practice and because of my advanced age, I was n ot able to go back. Money slowly r an out. We currently exist on our Social Security checks and help from our daughters and their families. My dream of seeing my screenplay on the big screen faded…
You, my friends, are my only resort to ever seeing that dream come true in the time I have left.
All donations will go toward funding this movie: I will carefully hire and oversee a professional production company to handle any aspects of hiring actors, and the renting of, and use of cameras and equipment.
If my funding program is successful I will gladly gift the following to the donors.:
Donors of $25 or more will see their names scrolled after the movie
Donors of $50 or more: will receive a personalized DVD of the movie.
Donors of $500 or more will be invited as my special guest at the premiere of the movie.
THANK YOU MY FRIENDS. I’LL SEE YOU AT THE MOVIES (I hope).
