In May 1969, Norman traveled to the Cannes International Film Festival in France to put deals together for movie projects. As Howard Zuker, he had developed a film fund financed by a group of Boston real estate Investors based on tax ramifications related to the real estate Business, i.e. amortization and depreciation, which could be translated into tax incentives for motion picture investment. Norman applied these to his fund, formed Gemini Pictures International, with himself as President. The company's first release was the Italian-made Which Way Do You Dig? (also known as Dark of the Day; And The Bombs Keep Falling and I Cannoni Tuonano Ancora), in which he also co-starred alongside Spaghetti Western actor Robert Woods. Over the course of his career, Norman would go on to act in, produce, and Finance scores of movies, raising in excess of $100,000,000 for motion picture production, most notably with French Producer Henry Lange, with whom he made over a dozen films — including the 1971 vampire lesbian cult hit, Daughters of Darkness – and with Hollywood legend Bert Schneider: Hearts And Minds (Warner Bros., 1974), The Gentleman Tramp (1976) and Paramount's 1977 Tracks, which in addition was produced by and co-starred Norman and was directed by Henry Jaglom, who would become Norman\s most frequent moviemaking partner. As Producer, presenter, financier and actor, Norman has collaborated with Jaglom for the last 40 years on such films as Sitting Ducks (1980), Venice, Venice (1992), Babyfever (1994), Hollywood Dreams (2005), Irene in Time (2009), Queen of the Lot (2010) and Festival in Cannes (2002), for which Norman received favorable reviews.
