Blue Money is a 1970's soft core porn film written and directed by Alain Patrick as Alain-Patrick Chappuis and based upon a story by Nick Boretz. The film is distributed by Crown International Pictures.

Plot

Yearning to make real films in early 1970’s Hollywood, California, twenty-five year old, French-Canadian, Jim DeSalle (Alain Patrick), gets caught up in the adult film industry, trying support himself and his wife Lisa (Barbara Caron), with their Baby (Vanessa Chappuis). They seem to have the perfect life, but it all falls apart.

Unbeknowest to Jim, they have been under surveillance by the local police Vice Squad for being involved in making and distributing pornographic films. Everything starts to unravel for Jim: The police begin a series of raids, his “sleazy distributors” won’t pay him, he has a fling with an actress, his wife takes their child and leaves him, and his the creditors are seeking to seize his assets and evict him from his beach house.

It seemed like he had everything at the beginning of the film, it looks now as if he's going to be left with nothing.

It may be too late when Jim and Lisa finally realize that all they really want to do is to get on their boat, with Baby to the middle of the ocean, and get as far away from it all as they can. Just as Jim reveals to the Vice Cop


(The uncredited role of Vice Cop was done as a favor to director Alain Patrick by his friend Gary Kent).

Production

The story is told in a "mockumentary" style, with a voice-over narration from the Vice Squadpolice officer (Bob Chinn) describing black and white stills and video footage (in the fictional film stated as coming from the police investigation surveillance films).

Some of those involved in the project also worked on a number of other films, such as the two leads, Alain Patrick, who worked on over twenty-six other film and television projects, such as Time Tunnel, Harry O, and Ironside; and, Barbara Caron (Barbara Mills), who performed in The Stewardesses and Executives' Wives, among her thirty-eight other film projects.

As many of those who worked on the film have also worked in the industry the film portrays, the movie itself is a quasi-documentary.

It has since been released on home media and VOD with different edits and run times. It is also in a number of DVD collections of similarly themed low-budget films distributed by Crown International Pictures, such as Sextette, and The Virgin Queen of St. Francis High, by Mill Creek Entertainment and others; as well as being shown on television.
