This coming Saturday (15th August) Fabien Martorell’s short film The Coin is scheduled to be shown at the HollyShorts Film Festival. The screening titled ‘Family Films’ starts at 12 noon at the TCL Chinese 6 Theatres on Hollywood Boulevard and involves nine loosely themed films. There is mix of nationalities, genres and subject matters. Details can be found on the official HollyShorts Film Festival website.
Last Thursday there was the news of the film receiving its première showing at the Fantastic Film Festival in October. Yesterday it was announced that RLJ Entertainment, formerly known as Image Entertainment, had made its first acquisition deal to distribute Bone Tomahawk in the North American markets of the United States and Canada. Two things have still not been said so far about the agreement: the format (cinema or DVD/VOD) and the release date. We’re also awaiting news on distribution in other territories. More when we get it.
The long running** Hollywood-based short film festival, which takes place in mid-August at the TCL Chinese 6 Theatres, has released a schedule of screenings. The Coin will be shown as part of a group of nine films under the banner ‘Family Films’. In keeping with the theme the event takes place on Saturday, 15th August at a family-friendly 12:00pm*** The set are a mix of animation and live action films. They cover a variety of subjects and come from all over the world including places like Denmark, France, and not surprisingly America. More details and tickets at a very reasonable**** $15 are available on the official HollyShorts Film Festival website. * delete as applicable ** this will be the 11th/it is 10 days in duration *** that’s noon **** you may think otherwise
The genre-crossing film festival Fantastic Fest has announced that Bone Tomahawk will receive its world première at the event later this year. S. Craig Zahler’s horror western will be the closing night film, presumably meaning it will be screened on the 1st of October 2015, the last date given. Fantastic Fest takes place at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas and kicks-off on the 24th September. Bone Tomahawk stars Kurt Russell (Overboard) as a Sheriff who sets out with three other men to rescue a group of captured townsfolk from ‘cannibalistic cave dwellers’. Kurt and his co-star Matthew Fox (Lost) are both understood to be attending the première screening. We can only hope that Kathryn, who plays the Sheriff’s wife in the film, stands by her man (Kurt or Johnny, we don’t mind as long as she’s there) at the event. See the recent post here on KM UK for a few photos of Kathryn in costume. In a not so genre-busting move all the details about Fantastic Fest can be found on the official website HERE.
The latest of our Media Alerts, which primarily cover showings of Kathryn’s work on national television in the UK, is for another showing of A.I. Artificial Intelligence on the BBC. The film makes a return to the main One channel, this time at 11:15pm on Friday (31st July). February’s showing seemed to be timed to coincide with the cinema release of the movie Ex Machina, which also dealt with the issue of humans relating to highly sophisticated robots that mimic humans emotions. The UK DVD was launched a few months ago so this TV showing of A.I. is not linked to that. Perhaps its a reference to the show Humans on Channel 4, which is a UK/US co-production re-make of the Swedish drama Real Humans (aka Äkta människor). More life-like robots and their impact on real people. That series comes to an end next weekend. The BBC website’s page about A.I. Artificial Intelligence is here. Screencaps and a video clip of Kathryn’s performance in A.I. can be found in the Gallery. |
