ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.
Results of Operations
---------------------
Revenues for the three months ended March 31, 1996 were approximately
$43,629,000, as compared with approximately $837,000 for the comparable three
months in 1995. The Partnership sold its interest in the Joint Venture (see
Investment in Joint Venture below) during the first quarter of 1996 resulting in
a Gain of Sale of approximately $43,186,000. Revenues for the comparable period
in 1995 consisted of income from the Joint Venture of approximately $792,000.
Interest Income for the three months ended March 31, 1996 was approximately
$442,000 as compared with approximately $45,000 for the comparable period in
1995. The increase of $398,000 is the result of an increase in funds available
for investment due to the sale of the interest in the Joint Venture. Interest
rates for the first three months of 1996 ranged from 4.80% to 5.79%, while those
for the comparable period in 1995 ranged from 5.67% to 6.04%.
2
Expenses for the three months ended March 31, 1996 were approximately
$319,000 as compared with approximately $186,000 for the comparable period in
1995. The increase of approximately $133,000 in expense is attributable
primarily to the cost of the sale of the Partnership's interest in the Joint
Venture.
The Partnership generated net income of approximately $43,309,000 for the
three months ended March 31, 1996, as compared with net income of approximately
$651,000 for the comparable period in 1995. This increase is caused primarily
from the Sale of the Joint Venture's interest.
The Partnership committed approximately $22,000,000 toward the Completed
Films pursuant to the Loan Agreement. In addition, the Partnership became
committed to fund ten films and part of one additional film with total budgets
amounting to approximately $150,690,000, of which substantially all has been
expended. Accordingly, all Partnership Funds have been committed and the
Partnership will not finance or purchase any additional motion pictures.
The four Completed Films are: "Return to Oz," released June 21, 1985; "The
Black Cauldron," released July 19, 1985; "My Science Project," released August
9, 1985; and "The Journey of Natty Gann," released September 27, 1985. The Joint
Venture Films are: "One Magic Christmas," released November 22, 1985; "Down and
Out in Beverly Hills," released January 31, 1986; "Offbeat," released April 11,
1986; "Ruthless People," released June 27, 1986; "The Great Mouse Detective,"
released July 2, 1986 and re-released February 14, 1992 under the title "The
Adventures of the Great Mouse Detective;" "Tough Guys," released October 3,
1986; "The Color of Money," released October 17, 1986; "Outrageous Fortune,"
released January 30, 1987; "Tin Men," released March 6, 1987 and "Ernest Goes to
Camp," released May 22, 1987. "Stakeout," which was financed approximately 75%
by the Partnership and 25% by Silver Screen Partners III, L.P. (a separate
limited partnership with the same Managing General Partner formed to finance
subsequent Disney films), was released August 5, 1987.
During the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the Partnership made cash
distributions to the Partners which amounted to approximately $37,500,000 in the
aggregate.

Investment in Joint Venture
---------------------------
The Investment in the Joint Venture was accounted for using the equity
method of accounting. Under the equity method, the investment was initially
recorded at cost, and was thereafter increased by additional investments,
adjusted by the Partnership's share of the Joint Venture's results of
operations, and reduced by distributions received from the Joint Venture. The
Joint Venture's fiscal year ended September 30, while the Partnership's fiscal
year ends December 31. On January 1, 1996 the investment in the Joint Venture
was $591,842.
The Partnership entered into a Letter Agreement (The "Buyout Agreement")
with Disney dated September 11, 1995, providing for the sale to Disney of all of
the Partnership's interest in the Joint Venture. In accordance with the Buyout
Agreement the closing of the sale occurred on January 2, 1996 and the purchase
price paid to the Partnership was $44,678,304 in cash after an adjustment for
certain film revenues totaling $321,696 received in 1995. Appropriate
distribution will be made to the partners and the Partnership will be dissolved
as quickly as possible.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
-------------------------------
As of March 31, 1996, the General Partners' capital accounts reflect a
deficit of $87,427. In view of the Partnership's limited requirements for
liquidity, short and long term evaluations do not anticipate any effect of
current capital account balances on the Partnership's cash flow.
