Stop me if you’ve heard this one…

For the fourth day in a row we have news regarding Fabien Martorell’s (thanks to him again) short film The Coin featuring in a film festival.  This time it is the Saint Cloud Film Festival in Minnesota, in the north of the United States.

This is all proving to be quite a geography lesson for me.  I’d never heard of St Cloud.  It sounds like an unusual place name but it turns out there’s quite a few of them around, including one in the neighbouring state of Wisconsin.  You live and learn.

Anyway, the 4th annual St Cloud Film Fest is happening in early October.

Despite tickets being on sale already there is, so far, no detail available on the screenings or much on other films that will feature.

I will certainly update you as soon as possible.  In the mean time you can see the event’s website here.

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.

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?

Ever get the feeling of déjà-vu?  Is it supposed to happen after just a few hours?

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 last night.  The SFF is taking place over three days in mid-October.  The same three days as the San Pedro Film Festival.  Do these festivals never talk to each other? 

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.
