Notes to the Financial Statements


The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with
the Partnership's annual 1994 audited financial statements within Form 10-K.

The unaudited financial statements include all adjustments which are, in the
opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of financial
position as of June 30, 1995 and the results of operations for the three and
six months ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, and cash flows for the six months
ended June 30, 1995 and 1994, and the statement of changes in partners' capital
for the six months ended June 30, 1995.  Results of operations for the periods
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year.

No significant events have occurred subsequent to fiscal year 1994, and no
material contingencies exist which would require disclosure in this interim
report per Regulation S-X, Rule 10-01, Paragraph (a)(5).

Part I, Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Partnership's principal source of funds is the proceeds received from
Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation ("Fox") pursuant to the Distribution
Agreement, as defined in the Partnership's prospectus.  According to the terms
set forth in the Partnership Agreement, effective January 1993, the Partnership
receives proceeds from Fox on an annual basis.  Accordingly, all future cash
distributions from the Partnership's investment in the Joint Venture films will
be paid to limited partners on an annual basis.

The Partnership's cash balance at June 30, 1995 was approximately $373,000 as
compared to approximately $1,373,000 at December 31, 1994.  The $1,000,000
decrease is primarily the result of the payment of the 1994 cash distribution,
totalling approximately $792,000, and the payment of the Partnership's 1994
annual management fee.  The Partnership's cash balance is expected to provide
sufficient liquidity to enable the Partnership to meet its expenses.

During the third quarter of 1993, the General Partner engaged an independent
audit firm to perform a distribution audit to ensure that the Partnership is
receiving its allocable share of the revenues generated by the Joint Venture
films.  The audit was completed during the second quarter of 1994 and the
results indicated that, overall, Fox properly allocated revenues to the
Partnership.  Nevertheless, it was determined that approximately $75,000 of
additional revenue was owed to the Partnership by Fox, of which approximately
$50,000 was received by the Partnership during 1994.  In accordance with a
settlement agreement between Fox and the Partnership executed in January 1995,
the Partnership received the remaining $25,000 on February 2, 1995.

The Partnership's receivable from Twentieth Century Fox totalled approximately
$1,546,000 at June 30, 1995, as compared to approximately $1,375,000 at
December 31, 1994.  The increase is primarily attributable to the Joint
Venture's recognition of revenues of $196,000 during the first half of 1995,
offset by the collection of $25,000 of additional revenues received from Fox on
February 2, 1995, as mentioned above.

Accounts payable and accrued expenses decreased from approximately $39,000 at
December 31, 1994 to approximately $28,000 at June 30, 1995.  The decrease is
primarily attributable to the timing of payments related to the Partnership's
1994 annual audit fee.

Results of Operations
For the three months ended June 30, 1995, the Partnership recognized revenues
from motion picture exploitation and amortization of motion picture costs with
respect to its investment in the released films of approximately $13,000 and
($1,000), respectively, as compared to approximately $75,000 and $9,000,
respectively, for the same period in 1994.  For the six months ended June 30,
1995, the Partnership recognized revenues from motion picture exploitation and
amortization of motion picture costs with respect to its investment in the
released films of approximately $196,000 and $21,000, respectively, as compared
to approximately $407,000 and $87,000, respectively, for the corresponding
period in 1994.  The decrease in revenues from motion picture exploitation is
primarily attributable to the mature stage of the films.  The Partnership
currently receives revenues from the distribution of the films in ancillary
markets.

For the three and six months ended June 30, 1995, the Partnership reported a
net loss of approximately $51,000 and net income of approximately $53,000,
respectively, as compared to a net loss of approximately $6,000 and net income
of approximately $182,000 for the corresponding periods in 1994.  Both the
three-month increase in net loss and six-month decrease in net income are
primarily the result of decreases in revenues generated from motion picture
exploitation.  Motion picture profits are based on current estimates of
ultimate film revenues and costs.  These estimates are subject to review
periodically as more information about a film's distribution becomes available.
Such reviews can result in significant adjustments to prior estimates.

Interest income increased from approximately $4,000 and $9,000 for the three
and six months ended June 30, 1994, to approximately $7,000 and $20,000 for the
three and six months ended June 30, 1995.  The increase is primarily due to
interest rate increases.

Total expenses incurred by the Partnership during the first half of 1995 were
relatively unchanged from the corresponding period in 1994.
