Hollywood's Latest Financier: the Lottery | The Wrap "The latest film fund, $30 million to make romantic comedies, thrillers and faith-based dramas, comes from the lottery winnings of Cynthia Stafford, a single Hawthorne homemaker who shared a $67 million jackpot with her father and brother in 2007.

Who knows. There may even be a tax advantage she can make use of.

Her first madcap screwball comedy title can be “Riches to Rags.”

Lottery money is paying for an educational film about the Niobrara River in Nebraska. It comes my way via a river-hugging group, The Friends of the Niobrara and Nebraska Games and Parks Commission. It is just like winning the lottery, almost a license to break even.
