I’d Buy That Coin For A Canadian Dollar

poster_001Northern North Americans now have the chance to watch the short film The Coin for the princely sum of 99 cents Canadian.  That’s a mere 11 cents per minute.  Sounds like good value to me.

The film is available on the Illico website to stream as a 24 hour rental until the end of January next year.  You definitely need an account with them, and presumably there is some geo-locking or a requirement for proof of residence such as a registered credit card.

You can see The Coin’s page on the site HERE.

As usual thanks to writer/director/producer Fabien Martorell for letting us know.

Revival House… Not… Err… Revived?

revival_house_430x38It is just over 6 months since our last update on the trademark status of Kathryn’s production company Revival House.

In that half-year the United States Patent And Trademark Office (USPTO) required documentation proving the active use of the name Revival House in a commercial setting.  As of May 11th, that information was not forthcoming so the applied for trademark Revival House is now officially ‘Abandoned’.

This change of status does not necessarily mean that the production company itself is dead, just that the protections afforded to the use of the name are lost.  It is not a completely beyond saving, there is the option of a petition being submitted.  There are only two weeks to do so though.

First filed in 2011, just a few months after Kathryn’s previous production company Hotplate Productions went through the same abandonment process, Revival House was accepted in April 2012.  Proof of usage or a 6-month extension request needs to be submitted within 6 months.  A maximum of 5 extensions can be approved, giving a total of 3 years to ‘use it or lose it’.

Since that time has all now passed with no signs of Revival House being used commercially, the trademark application on the name has been closed.

The Trademarkia website has all the details.

Roommate Wanted – 1 Week’s Notice

roommate_wanted_dvd_3d_001There is just one week to go until Roommate Wanted (née 2Br/1Ba) is available to buy and/or stream.

The US DVD and VOD release of the ‘R’ rated thriller will be upon us next Tuesday, the 19th of May.

At the time of writing I am not aware of the drama being available anywhere else in the world on disc or in streamed form.  If you know differently please let us know in the comments below or using the Contact form.

You can pre-order the movie on the Amazon US website on this page at the slightly reduced price of $13.94.  Last time I posted about it it was $13.99!  6 cents saved!

We don’t know the exact extent of Kathryn’s role in the project but we should not expect it to be too extensive.

Next week KM UK will be marking the film’s launch by sharing some exclusive content.  Remember to come back then.

Happy Mother’s Day – Update

wallpaper_266_1600x1200_ginaFrom everyone here at KM UK

We’ve all got one, even if we don’t always appreciate them.  The least we can do is have a day in their honour.

wallpaper_266_1600x1200_ginaMother’s Day is not an occasion we’ve traditionally marked here on KM UK.  That is partly down to the fact that it hasn’t fitted in with the site’s theme (Kathryn), and partly due to the fact that in the UK we have Mothering Sunday in March whereas much of the world holds it on the second Sunday in May.  Your mileage may vary though as there is quite a spread of dates used across the year depending on your location on the global.  Check local calendars for info.

However, after what we call “the incident” we now have a good reason for jumping on the US-lead bandwagon and celebrating Mother’s Day today.  I have long-time reader Gina to thank for reminding me when she kindly sent me some fan art she created especially.

Sections of Gina’s image can be seen around this post.  Click on a pic to go to the Fan Art Wallpaper section of the Gallery to see it in full.

If you want to have any of your works of art displayed here then please contact me.

Update:  Kathryn’s partner Johnny Messner has posted a photo of her and the boys on Instagram with a heartfelt messge to mark the day.  A copy has been added to the Gallery.
