This week Death Penalty: Final Appeal goes up against The Hen House in our penultimate poll. Which will you choose?
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?
With a name like Start Up, the 7th episode of the third season of Cold Case, could be about little else but the death of someone connected with a new company. Jealousies and the potential to make a lot of money quickly can only lead to bad things. Amy Lind was found slumped at the wheel, well, oars, of a rowing boat on the river in 1999. It was ascribed to heart failure at the time. In the present (or what was the present in 2005) something much like a diary suggesting poison was involved is found on the hard drive of a laptop donated to a school. Then it’s all hands on deck (see what I did there with the boating analogy? clever stuff). Robin Weigert (Deadwood) makes a final guest appearance (her first of four was in Lover’s Lane, at the end of season one) as Det Anna Mayes. Anna is investigating the death of Scotty’s girlfriend Elisa and brings him some news on a possible lead. Start Up is the latest entry in the KM UK Summer Of HD for 2014 and there are now 153 HD (720p) Lilly screencaps newly added to the Gallery.
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.
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. |

Another tie in last week’s poll (

Is 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.
The 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 
A 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.
