1. You have purchased a one-year Site License of THE LIST. This license allows you to show the film as many times as you like in your church, or in conjunction with an event put on through your church. The license is not transferable to any other church, organization or individual.
2. One year from the date you purchased it. The date is determined by the date on the paid invoice you will have received from Crown Entertainment.
3. No. Charging admission is a commercial exploitation of the film that is not included in your public performance license. An offering is okay, but no set admission fee of any kind.
4. Yes. Many churches take an offering before showing the film as a way to offset the costs of the event. If you do, we suggest letting visitors know they are not obligated to donate (but of course, this is up to you).
5. Yes. As the holder of the Church Showing License of the film, your church has the right to show the film an unlimited number of times throughout the term of the license (1 year), however, it cannot be loaned or rented to another church for them to show publicly. You could be use the film at another venue for events conducted by your church, such as a retreat center or a privately rented theater. It can also be used in your church’s video library for home use by borrowers.
6. No. This Public Performance license is not transferable. Churches must purchase a Public Performance copy directly from Crown Video in order to show it legally.
7. No. A retail copy that is marked “For Home Use Only” is only to be shown in private settings. As the FBI warning at the beginning of a film indicates, other unauthorized use is considered to be a criminal act. Public Performance Rights are NOT included with the “home use” copies. Please note, however, that a “home use only” copy can be purchased and placed in your church library for families to take home to watch.
8. No. You can no longer legally or ethically show the film in any public setting, but we suggest you place it in your church library for individuals or families to use for home viewing.
9. Yes, BUT only if it is returned before any public exhibition. In other words, it’s okay for a church leader to watch the film beforehand for the purpose of screening before showing publicly, but not to show the film publicly. We guarantee your satisfaction with the quality of the film and the significance of the message, and will refund the cost of an UN-USED church package (minus related shipping costs).
10. Yes, you may purchase Home Use DVD copies of the film from Crown Entertainment (www.crownvideo.com).
11. THE LIST has been rated PG (Parental Guidance Suggested). Some scenes may not be suitable for children. There are some thematic elements, including some peril, and some brief incidental smoking.
