For the past six years the BBC here in England have broadcast Paycheck every 15 months or so, meaning that we are well over due a showing since it was last on back in August of 2011.
Auntie Beeb is finally putting us out of our misery with a late showing on Friday (12th April 2013) at 23:55. Despite the hour you can still watch Kathryn’s appearance in the John Woo (who also made Broken Arrow) action film, based on a short story by Philip K Dick and starring Ben Affleck (Argo), and be in bed by 12:10am.
Details of the BBC1/BBC1 HD broadcast can be found on the BBC’s website.
Paycheck already features in the KM UK Gallery and you can read a brief write-up of Kathryn’s role in the film in a previous post.
We haven’t used the countdown timer in a while so here is one to the start of the film:
It has been a bit of a wait but we are possibly seeing the first signs of the DVD release of Kathryn’s recent TV movie The Sweet Side Of Life.
The DVD Empire website now has a page for the film, you can see it HERE.
The page lists the release date for the USA, for that is where the DVD Empire site is based, as the 16th of July 2013. Just over 3 months from now. Only the DVD is listed, at the princely sum of $10.81, there is no signs of Blu-ray version at this time. Hopefully that will change.
Accompanying the details is a cover art image, eyes right. As you can see it uses one of the Hallmark promo photos of Kathryn mixed with a New York skyline background. The image is now in the Gallery.
The Sweeter Side Of Life, starring Kathryn and James Best (The Dukes Of Hazzard) is an original Hallmark Channel movie first broadcast by the station back in mid-January in the US, and is being repeated occasionally. Kathryn plays Desiree who is, as the official PR schtick puts it, “a privileged Manhattan housewife of a surgeon who gets a reality check when she’s dumped and sent back to New Jersey to work at her father’s beloved bakery.”
We were all young once. Some of us have never really grown up either
Thanks to the always generous and ever vigilant Kareen_T for passing along the photo above sent to her by the merelala Tumblr site with the message:
Hello! My parents showed me this picture, and I thought it was pretty cool. Kathryn Morris used to go to their church when they lived in Connecticut, and when they were newly married, they babysat her a couple times. This is a picture of her (on the left) at church sometime in the early 80s. Thought you guys would like it!
We do and thank you.
We’ve added it to our Gallery, where you will find the full version. Staying on the young theme we’ve included a photo (below left) many of you will be familiar with, though we are unsure of the origin. Any thoughts? Plus, we’ve thrown in a screenshot from The Sweeter Side Of Life of a young Desiree, which is actually photo of the young Kathryn, as confirmed to KM UK by the director Michael Damian.
What you see above could very well be the cover art for the UK DVD release of the movie Cougars, Inc.
Someone has obviously gone to some effort to do this rather than just take the version used in other parts of the world, such as the US. You do have to wonder why though.
The white background is the biggest change but there are others, both subtle and otherwise. Catalina Rodriguez (right) has undergone a body transplant with a severe neck twist. Can anyone name that body? Kathryn has been cut out of a darker part of the background, which complicates it, and the surgeon has perhaps been a bit over zealous with the scalpel. All three ladies have had changes made to their hair, mostly due to issues with cropping them from the original background. Kathryn in particular has gained some extra flowing locks. Headliner Denise Richards comes away from the experience almost unscathed.
A larger version in now in the Gallery.
Just last week we brought you the news that Cougars, Inc. had not only been rated for a theatrical release in the UK but it had also, very briefly, had one. Over a whole four (yes, 4) days the film was shown in a small selection of cinemas across the UK, mostly in an early afternoon slot.
This led KM UK to find that the film was given its official age rating for cinema and video release back in January. All of which hinted at a possible DVD release in this country quite soon.
Now, Amazon’s UK website and the online presence of the Sainsbury’s supermarket chain are both offering the disc for pre-order prior to an April 15th launch. No sign of a Blu-ray version.
For those that haven’t gone for the German DVD or Blu-ray version, sold under the name Loverboys and includes an English audio track, since it was released way back in April 2011 your chance to pick up a Region 2 copy could be here in just 6 weeks.
We’ll post again on this as the time approaches.
