Movie Moguls (1971)

This game is similar to a bare bones version of Traumfabrik in that you're collecting movie stars to finish movies. It's also very Monopoly like.

It's based on 20 movie productions. Players take turns moving around the board and have the option to buy various productions of older movies like Casablanca, High Noon, or A Streetcar Named Desire. There are title cards to represent ownership, with a list of three actors on them. If someone lands on your production they pay "studio fees." The cost depends on the number of movie stars and awards you've collected for that movie.

There are several ways to acquire stars. The flimsy cards feature nice b&w photos of actors such as Humphrey Bogart, Marilyn Monroe, and 58 others. Once you've completed a production, you are eligible to receive rewards. There are also Production & Publicity cards much like Chance and Community Chest cards in Monoply. Bankruptcies occur if you have to pay more than you have. There are rules for three short-game variants, which are described as lasting about an hour. The regular game is said to take two to three hours.
