Naming Names – Update

Update:  After a Tweet with the single word “Ed” and a photo of a baby was apparently posted by Johnny Messner (Kathryn’s partner), Johnny posted a follow-up Tweet stating the picture was not posted by him and was the result of a hack of his Twitter account.  This post has been edited to remove the content and the photo has been deleted from the Gallery.  Apologies for any confusion.

We have no idea what happened but, as per the post title, names need naming!

Hello Boys

Johnny Messner, Kathryn’s partner of over 3 years, has announced that their twins sons have been born.  That makes their date of birth 21st August 2013.

Born at 7:57am local time (3pm GMT) Johnny sent the following Tweet 30 minutes later:

Kathryn and I had 2 beautiful baby boys at 7:57 today Baby A was 6 pounds 9 ounces and baby B was 6 pounds 13 ounces ! We are so blessed – Link

Congratulations to them both.

Update (25 Aug):  For reasons unknown the official line on the time of the births and weight of the babies differs from Johnny’s account.  As seen on the Official KM website and the report on Us Magazine (which appears to be the favoured press outlet of Kathryn and Johnny) both have the births at 8:12am and weights as 1 ounce more for both babies.  There is no clear reason for the discrepancy.  Personally I’d favour the accuracy of Johnny’s report.

la_shortsfest_2013_official_selection

Following on from last week’s announcement that the short film The Coin has been selected for the LA Shorts Fest film festival today it has been announced that the short film The Coin has been selected for the LA Shorts Fest film festival.

Wednesday’s post was based on the film’s writer/director/producer Fabien Martorell letting it been known that the short, starring Kathryn and Christopher “Doc Brown” Lloyd, had been chosen.

Today (19 Aug 2013), the organisers of the LA Shortfest have released the official programme for the event.  The Coin will be part of ‘Program 16’ starting at 3:15pm on Sunday, September 8th.  Six other short films will shown in the same bill.

Read all about the LA Shorts Fest on the official website.

The Coin @ LA Shorts Fest

No, it’s not a convention only for those deficient in the trouser/pant* department.  Nor does it involve lashing anything to an ‘ort’s fest’, what ever an ort or its fest may be.  It’s, and you should probably be sitting down for this, a festival of short films in Los Angeles.

la_shortsfest_2013_430x105Once again the director/writer/producer of the short film The Coin, Fabien Martorell, has let KM UK know via the modern communication medium that is Twitter that the film has made the selection another film festival.  This time it the 17th annual Los Angeles International Short Film Festival.

The Shorts Fest takes place between the 5th and the 12th of September at the Laemmle NoHo 7 theatre in North Hollywood.  The exact date of The Coin’s screen(s) is not known at this time.  We’ll bring you more when we know it.

You can read more about the LA Shorts Fest the official website.  If you’re a local, or a visitor at the time, and are able to attend please let us know what it is like.

Thanks once more to Fabien for contacting KM UK.  Best of British to him and all involved.

On the right, and in the Gallery, is a large sized version of the festival’s poster.  It has the slogan “Once upon a time, The End.”

Director/writer/producer Fabien Martorell has let KM UK know via a Tweet that his short film The Coin has been selected for inclusion in this year’s Big Bear Lake International Film Festival.

Big Bear Lake is high (6750ft / 2060m above sea level) in the hills of southern California, north-east of Los Angeles.  The annual festival covers all types of films has been running since 2000 and will on a long weekend late in September (Friday 20th to Sunday 22nd).

The complete list of films due to be screened this year will be officially announced in a couple of weeks but Fabien has given us the news early, as he did for the Palm Springs International Film Fest back in June.

The Coin is a short film starring Kathryn Morris and Christopher Lloyd (Back To The Future).  It was filmed last summer and is about a young boy meeting a homeless man at a shop. Kathryn plays the boy’s very stressed mother.

You can read more about the Big Bear Lake International Film Festival at the event’s website.  If you are able to attend do let us know how it goes.

Thanks to Fabien for letting us know about this news, we wish him and the rest of the cast and crew all the best with it.
