St Cloud’s Forecast For October

saint_cloud_film_fest_poster_621x960Clouds are ephemeral things but the St. Cloud Film Festival is firming up.

Just two weeks ago we brought you the news that the short film The Coin had been chosen to be part of the line up of the St. Cloud Film Festival.

At the time there was little detail available regarding actual screening events within the 6 day event.

In the past couple of days the organisers have released a preliminary schedule of happenings which means we can now say with some certainty where and when The Coin can be seen.

Sunday, the 5th of October at 3pm a collection of 11 short films of various types will be shown at the Pioneer Place Theatre in Saint Cloud, Minnesota.

The tickets are already on sale at the very reasonable price of $5 for a screening totalling nearly 2 hours of films.  A ticket covering the whole festival is only $20.  See the event’s website here for more details.

Any Minnesotans out there going along?

The Coin Turns To Gold (Coast)

gold_coast_international_film_festival_851x315I know what you’re thinking: “it’s been ages since we heard about The Coin appearing at a new film festival.”

Well, worry no more  :-)

screenshot_001When I first read Fabien Martorell’s message letting us know (thanks to him) about this my mind, not surprisingly, headed ‘down under’.  I was all ready to make references to the 2018 Commonwealth Games, sun, sea and sand.  The initial research into the Gold Coast International Film Festival didn’t immediately disabuse me of this idea.  Then I saw the address.

The Gold Coast in question is a nickname for the northerly coast of Long Island, USA, not the one Queensland, Australia.  With all due respect to the residents of New York state I’m guessing that they are not quite the same.

I am also going to go out on a limb and suggest that the weather in the north east of America in early November will not the same as the east coast of Australia at the same time.  Surfers Paradise vs snowman’s delight  :-)

The GCIFF will be taking place at the Great Neck Arts Center, Great Neck, New York over the course of the first full week in November.

As we’ve become used to at this stage the exact details of the film festival are not yet finalised so we’ll have to update you nearer the time.  Check out the official event website here.

Cold Case S03E17 – Superstar Full HD Screencaps

Cold_Case_S03E17_lilly_034I really should have found a way to engineer it so that this one got posted back in mid-July.  Why?  So that I could tie the whole tennis theme of Superstar (Cold Case season 3, episode 17) in with the major tennis tournament happening at the time: Wimbledon.  Such a wasted opportunity :-)

The episode opens with a university “Battle Of The Sexes” tennis match in 1973.  It’s a charity event mirroring the famous pair of matches held for real in that year under that title.  The fictional game is set just a few weeks after Bobby Riggs was beaten by Billie Jean King in the second match.  Previously Riggs had won over Margaret Court.  The Riggs/King game was televised nationally so is much better remembered.  It was not without controversy.  Riggs was much older that his female competitors was amongst the issues.

Of course, on Cold Case our tennis superstar winds up dead post-match.  Did her on-court rival do it?  Of course not, much to obvious.  Will the new evidence her sister brings to the squad lead to a game-set-and-match for the killer?

Superstar is the latest entry in KM UK’s Summer Of HD for 2014 and it brings 166 Full HD (1080p) Lilly screencaps to the Gallery.

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.
