...date, the bulk of that money has gone into producing films; very little of it goes into international distribution. Now that imbalance is coming into focus. Some of Europe's bigger companies have decided to join hands across the water. This past September, Britain's DNA Films (Trainspotting, 28 Days Later) signed a $50 million deal with America's Fox Searchlight, giving Fox a major British co-production pal and DNA access to worldwide distribution. Others envision a distribution system without the American dollar. In 2002, the five distributors of Indie Circle came up with a simple idea...

Experts are skeptical. "Young people don't need the help," says Rachel Greenwald, author of the best-selling How to Find a Husband After 35 Using What I Learned at Harvard Business School. "The bulk of people needing a matchmaker are women over 30--really, over 40. And for them, there's a problem of supply and demand." She's right. According to the Census Bureau, for those in their 20s and 30s, there are 115 unmarried men for every 100 unmarried women; that drops to 69 for every 100 in the 45-to-64 age bracket. A much better...
