NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
------------------------------------------



1.  In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited financial
    statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals)
    necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of July
    31, 1995, the results of its operations for the three-month and six month
    periods July 31, 1995 and 1994.

2.  The results of operations for the interim periods of the Company's fiscal
    year are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the
    entire year. Certain reclassifications have been made in the 1994 financial
    statements to confirm with 1995 classifications.

3.  On March 13, 1995 the Company and Imperial Bank of Los Angeles, California
    entered into an agreement for the bank to supply the Company with a
    $6,000,000 revolving line of credit secured by the assets of the Company,
    reducing to $5,000,000 on December 31, 1995 with an expiration date of June
    16, 1996. Borrowing is based upon certain percentages of acceptable
    receivables. The outstanding balance at July 31, 1995 was $5,780,000. The
    agreement contains various covenants the most restrictive of which (1)
    require a liquidity ratio of not less than .45 to 1 at any time, (2) require
    the debt to adjusted net worth to be not greater than 1.5 to 1 at any time,
    (3) require the interest coverage for any quarter to be more than 1.25 to 1.
    As of July 31, and for the six and three months then ended the Company is in
    compliance with all of the covenants.

For the Six Month Period Ended July 31, 1995 and July 31, 1994
--------------------------------------------------------------
          Net sales increased $2,419,000 or 28% to $11,342,000 from $8,923,000.
Each of the markets serviced had sales increases with the exception of the
theatrical market. The largest increase was in home video sales into the "sell-
through" market. The "sell-through" market sales were more than $1,000,000
compared to $200,000 last year. The Company together with Turner Home
Entertainment, the Company's exclusive domestic home video distributor, designed
a "sell-through" program of 38 titles priced to retail at $9.98.

          Sales in both the home video rental market and domestic television
market increased more than 20% each while foreign sales increased 17%.

          The Company did not have any theatrical releases during this period
and does not plan for any in this fiscal year.

          In November 1994, the Company entered into a three year exclusive
domestic distribution agreement with Turner Home Entertainment, Inc. The
agreement provides that Turner assume all domestic sales responsibility for the
Company's product in the home video market, both rental and "sell-through".

          Cost of sales increased $1,562,000 to $7,326,000 from $5,764,000
primarily from an $880,000 increase in film costs and minimum guaranteed royalty
payments to acquire higher quality films with more recognizable stars and
acquire broader rights for the foreign and television markets and a $900,000
increase in distribution expenses. Distribution expenses increased as a result
of the fees earned by Turner for the home video sales increase in both the
rental and the "sell-through" market. These increases were offset by
approximately $250,000 in reductions in production of artwork and trailers as
part of the Company's cost reduction program announced in the July 31, 1994
quarter last year.

Item 7.  MANAGEMENTS' DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)

          Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $1,133,000 from
$3,623,000 to $2,490,000. This is primarily due to a decrease in advertising of
$549,000 and the remaining balance decrease was of selling and travel expenses.
Selling activities are now the responsibilty of Turner pursuant to the
distribution agreement. In the July 31, 1994 quarterly report, the Company
announced it had instituted cost reductions in the areas of distribution, sales
and marketing. This decrease is part of that program.

          Interest expense increased $185,000, primarily due to increased
borrowings under the new Imperial Bank line of credit. (see below)

         Interest income decreased $23,000 since the Company utilized the
majority of its cash to acquire film rights and did not have the level of short
term investments compared to last year.

        Loan costs increased $12,000 as the Company begins amortization of costs
related to completing the Imperial Bank line of credit (see below) and writing
off all remaining unamortized costs relating to the Bank of America line of
credit. Loan costs include the amortization of the costs related to the
Convertible Subordinated Debentures over a 10-year period, the life of the
Debentures.

         Other expenses for the six months ended July 31, 1994 were losses due
to currency fluctuation relating to the Company's video operations in Canada. In
January, 1994, the Company entered into an agreement with C/FP Distribution, a
Canadian company, to distribute all of its new releases and catalog to the
Canadian home video market. The Company has closed its sales office in Canada
effective April 30, 1994.

         Income before taxes increased by $1,788,000 due to the increase in
sales and the reduction in selling and general and administrative expenses. The
income increases were partially offset by cost of sales and interest expense
increases.

For the Three Months Ended July 31, 1995 and July 31, 1994
----------------------------------------------------------

        Net sales increased $1,482,000 or 37.8% due primarily to substantial
increases in sales to the "sell-through", foreign and domestic television
markets. The sales to the domestic home video rental market had a modest
decrease of 7%.

        All of the increases and decreases in the income statement for the three
month period are substantially the same as they are for the six month period.
Therefore, all management comments for the six month period are the same for the
three month period.

Item 7.  MANAGEMENTS' DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
         CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS (continued)


          Income before taxes increased by $1,029,000 due to the increase in
sales and the reduction in selling and general and administrative expenses. The
income increases was partially offset by cost of sales and interest expense
increases.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------

          The Company finances its activities from cash flow and borrowing from
banks and other financial institutions and from the public debt market.

          On March 13, 1995, the Company and Imperial Bank of Los Angeles,
California entered into an agreement for the bank to supply the Company with a
$6,000,000 revolving line of credit secured by the assets of the Company,
reducing to $5,000,000 on December 31, 1995 with an expiration date of June 16,
1996. This replaces the Company's previous $5,000,000 line of credit with Bank
of America NT & SA.

          The Company has fully utilized its available line of credit at July
31, 1995 and must rely on its cash flow to meets its future obligations.

          Cash flow from operating activities was $3,012,000 and was the result
of net earnings of $499,000 and film cost and other amoritzation and
depreciation of $3,784,000 reduced by a $952,000 increase in accounts receivable
and the remainder a decrease in accounts payable and accrued expenses.

          Cash used in investing was $6,073,000 and was primarily payments of
$6,119,000 for the purchase of film rights offset by cash received from a note
receivable.

          Cash received from financing activities was $2,759,000 and was mainly
attributable to the borrowings by the Company on its new line of credit with the
Imperial Bank.

                                  Seasonality
                                  -----------

          Industry statistics and the Company's operating history indicate there
is a summer sales decline.

                                   Inflation
                                   ---------

          Management believes that inflation is not a material factor in the
operation of its business at this time.
