Bayou Goes Hollywood

Here’s a strange twist to the tale of Bayou Management. It seems that the fund’s managers were trying to get in the movie business.

According to corporate filings with the secretary of state in Nevada, Paid Merchandising, Paid Movie I and Paid Movie II list as their principals IM Partners and Mathew Marino, the brother of Dan Marino, Bayou’s chief financial officer. Both principals list their address as 40 Signal Road, Stamford, Conn., the same address where Bayou once lodged its various hedge funds.
Those entities agreed to finance a significant portion of “Yellow,” a film produced by Yellow Production about a woman who is haunted by the death of her father, according to a London-based Web site called The Z Review. “They wanted to invest in movies,” said Stephen Brown, the president of Yellow Production. But, he said, “Paid Movie I did not complete the financing of the movie. We took additional steps to secure the balance of the funding.”
