INVEST IN GOLDENBOY
TOTALLY TOM’s first feature, ALL MY FRIENDS HATE ME, was financed by 31 backers with investments starting as little as £1,000.

We will finance GOLDENBOY the same way…
Here’s some reasons why you should invest in our next production.
1 - OUR TRACK RECORD
Even setting aside the film’s critical acclaim (89% on Rotten Tomatoes), praised by critics in the US and the UK…
…we have a more important track record: as of 2024, INVESTORS in ALL MY FRIENDS HATE ME are now officially…

Our investors have made 20%+ on their original stake.
They will continue to receive royalties for a minimum of the next twenty-five years.
2 - OUR DIRECTOR
ANDREW GAYNORD’s debut ALL MY FRIENDS HATE ME was met with critical acclaim in both the UK: ‘savagely funny’ (Times); ‘genius’ Empire and the US: ‘razor sharp’ (LA Times); ‘funny and menacing’ (NY Times Critics Pick).
ANDREW has since been BAFTA nominated for STATH LETS FLATS: ‘utter gold’ (Independent), and directed Netflix’s hit comedy special A WHOLE LIFETIME: ‘punishingly funny’ (Guardian).
GOLDENBOY is his latest collaboration with the Toms, his backing ensures we can get a talented cast who will trust his vision… the better the cast the bigger the sales.

Continuing the collaborative success of ALL MY FRIENDS HATE ME, GOLDENBOY stars BAFTA-Nominee DUSTIN DEMRI-BURNS as the film’s protagonist, CAL.
Dustin’s recent work includes Apple TV’s SLOW HORSES with Gary Oldman, DOPE GIRLS with Eliza Scanlan and THE MAGIC FARAWAY TREE with Rebecca Ferguson.
