Elizabeth Bardsley and Associates are an invaluable resourse for the writer and producer concerned with historical and dramatic accuracy. They find reasons why your movie should be made instead of throwing up trivial roadblocks in the path to production. In my case, they were asked to do everything from finding the proper name for a surgical retractor used in the first breast implant surgery to documenting who in Hollywood had been 'enhanced.' Whatever they were called upon to do, they delivered in exemplary fashion.

The unique range of services provided by Elizabeth Bardsley and her incredible wealth of research contacts make her an invaluable resource for any production. In our project alone [DICK], Elizabeth provided period research, circa 1970s magazines and TV commercials for props and video playback, and located aerial stock footage – all of which made it into the movie. More importantly, however, Elizabeth 's support did not end with the delivery of these elements. Contract negotiations, clearance releases and product returns were all part of Elizabeth's services as she undertook the necessary follow-up procedures to ensure that anything she delivered had no legal strings attached. In addition, if anything she presented did not stand up to this legal scrutiny, Elizabeth was always ready with alternative suggestions to ensure that the director received the material he needed before it was time to roll the camera. It is my pleasure to recommend Elizabeth to any production considering the use of her services and I will not hesitate to engage her for any of my future projects.

After having annotated a number of my fact-based screenplays myself, I was thrilled to discover that somebody like Elizabeth Bardsley existed. I've just finished the third project in which Elizabeth 's services were once again invaluable. She's thorough, fast, reliable — and though I never dreamed I'd say this, she makes the process pleasurable. Her careful attention to detail, facts, and every imaginable legal concern saves me countless hours and the producers countless worries. Elizabeth has been doing this long enough that she knows where the red flags are. I look forward to working with her again on future projects.
