The Coin On Set Interview With Kathryn – Update

exclusive_interview_screenshot_001This is a nice little surprise.

We’re in danger of becoming this site dedicated to the short film The Coin and a Fabien Martorell appreciation society, but that’s OK.

Today we have to thank Fabien for posting a video taken on the set of The Coin when it filmed back in the summer of 2012.

The video, hosted on Vimeo here, sees Kathryn explaining her reasons for taking on the role of the under stress mother.  Christopher Lloyd also makes a brief appearance.

It is so nice to see Kathryn on screen again like this, even if it is so brief.

Update: A copy of the video and screencaps from it have been added to the Gallery.  The video page includes a transcript of what Kathryn says to help any one wanting to translate it into their native language.

The Coin Reaches For The (Saint) Cloud(s)

saint_cloud_film_fest_poster_621x960Stop me if you’ve heard this one…

For the fourth day in a row we have news regarding Fabien Martorell’s (thanks to him again) short film The Coin featuring in a film festival.  This time it is the Saint Cloud Film Festival in Minnesota, in the north of the United States.

This is all proving to be quite a geography lesson for me.  I’d never heard of St Cloud.  It sounds like an unusual place name but it turns out there’s quite a few of them around, including one in the neighbouring state of Wisconsin.  You live and learn.

Anyway, the 4th annual St Cloud Film Fest is happening in early October.

Despite tickets being on sale already there is, so far, no detail available on the screenings or much on other films that will feature.

I will certainly update you as soon as possible.  In the mean time you can see the event’s website here.

The Coin To Be Re-viewed In London

portobello_free_film_festival_poster_511x485Is there a word for repetitive déjà vu?  The French are clearly linguistically inventive, they created déjà vu after all, so perhaps there is something applicable.

Apparently, according to our usual source for these things director/writer/producer Fabien Martorell, the short film The Coin will be getting a repeat showing at the London-based Portobello FIlm Festival on Saturday (13th Sept).

So far there is limited detail on the timing but the venue will be, just like last time, the Westbourne Studios on Acklam Road, not far from Portobello Road.  That means the film must be part of the “USA2: American Eyes” event which starts at noon and runs until 11pm.

See my previous post (substitute the date with the 13th) and the festival’s website for details.

Who to thank this time?  Fabien?  Who else? :-)

Sunscreen Film Festival Takes The Coin

poster_001Ever get the feeling of déjà-vu?  Is it supposed to happen after just a few hours?

sunscreen_film_festival_731x934The Sunscreen Film Festival takes place in South Bay, Los Angeles.  This is just to the north-west of the San Pedro area of Los Angeles mentioned last night.  The SFF is taking place over three days in mid-October.  The same three days as the San Pedro Film Festival.  Do these festivals never talk to each other?  :-)

The Coin; which as you know stars Kathryn and Christopher Lloyd and was written, directed and produced by Fabien Martorell; has been selected to be screened at the SFF.

At time of going to press (or should that be ‘pressing Go’?) no schedule of events or list of films to be screened has been published by the SFF so we will have to wait.  I’ll update you all at a later date as the info becomes available.

In the mean time you can peruse the event’s official website here.

Thank you, yet again, to Fabien for telling us about this.

The Coin To Be At San Pedro Film Fest

poster_001I think you probably know how this goes by now.

san_pedro_international_film_festival_300x308A short while ago this evening director/writer/producer Fabien Martorell told us that his short film The Coin has been selected for inclusion in the San Pedro International Film Festival (SPIFF).  That’s it’s logo (or one it has used) on the right.

Before half the world gets excited I should clarify which San Pedro we are talking about.  A five second check on Wikipedia suggests there are dozens of places across the world called San Pedro, not surprisingly most of them are South America.  The San Pedro in question here is the one in the south of Los Angeles and incorporates the massive Port Of Los Angeles.

The third running of the SPIFF (which sounds spiffing when written like that!) is due to take place over three days in mid-October this year.  No more details on the screening(s) are available at the moment.  I will, of course, update you all when such information becomes available.

For your delectation the event’s official website is here.

Thanks again to Fabien for letting us know.
