We read every message with care. The archive is curated for New Zealand audiences but covers global film history, and we value accuracy and nuance above all. If you believe we have misrepresented a fact, please let us know. Our response time may vary, but your message will not be ignored.

Our Response Promise
We aim to acknowledge all correspondence within five working days. However, as a small editorial team, our ability to provide detailed responses may vary depending on the volume of inquiries. We prioritise factual corrections and serious research queries, and we read every message before deciding how best to reply.
Please understand that we cannot offer legal advice or comment on ongoing film productions. We also do not accept unsolicited promotional content or guest posts. Our focus remains on the historical record and the thoughtful analysis of how gambling and casino imagery have evolved on screen.

Before You Write
Here are answers to questions we often receive. If your question is not addressed here, please feel free to contact us directly.
At this time, Cinema Legacy is an online publication only. We do not host screenings, festivals, or in-person events, but we hope the archive itself offers a rewarding way to explore film history.
Please refer to our Terms and Conditions for usage rights. In general, the archive is intended for personal, non-commercial reading, and any reuse requires our prior written permission.
Email us with the specific error and, if possible, a source for the correction. We review every report and update the archive when the evidence supports a change.
