Catch The Coin At SAFF On Sat

san_antonio_film_festival_430x140Our reporting on all things The Coin-related has been going at such a pace this year (impressive for a short film made in 2012) that to not mention it for a few weeks feels like a long time.

screenshot_001So, we must mention again the project’s march through the festivals forthwith.

This is just a quick reminder that Fabien Martorell’s award winning 8 minute long piece starring Kathryn and Christopher Lloyd (Stacked) will be screened on Saturday (August 2nd) at the San Antonio Film Festival.

As is normal for short films at festivals The Coin will be shown as part of a set of five at the City Base Cinema, Military Drive, San Antonio, under the title Block 2 Shorts.  Inspiring.

The other films on that bill include a dramas about a couple in the throws of a marital crisis and woman that may or may not being trying to help, a pair of astronauts who’ve been sharing a lot of personal space returning home, someone trying to get rid of an unwanted family member, and grieving widow visit by an angel.  The Coin is, of course, about neglected child meeting a homeless man.  Hilarity ensues all round.

The festival start on Monday and runs through to Sunday night.  Full details and tickets are available via the official website HERE.

If you get a chance to see The Coin at the SAFF please let us know.  We’d love to hear from you, just as we did from readers Tianna and Diane when the film was shown at film festivals local to them.

Cold Case Cast Catch-up – July 2014

danny_pino_001_430x180Looking back at last month’s Cold Case Cast Catch-up (aka CCCC-up), as I do to refresh my memory of upcoming things and check for updates, I spotted a lot of (now corrected) typos.  Not my best work.  This month I’ll try to make fewer mistooks as we look at the on-going careers of the other stars of Cold Case  :-)

The one bit of Danny Pino (Scotty Valens on CC) news last time out was his nomination in the 2014 Imagen Awards, which celebrate the portrayal of Latino culture in the media.  Danny is up for his role on the long-running TV series Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.  The show is due to start its 16th season, Danny’s 4th, in the autumn.  The Imagen awards are taking place on Friday (August 1st).  Good luck to all those nominated, especially Danny.

It looks like the indie movie Death Valley, which sees Jeremy Ratchford (Nick Vera on CC) don a cop uniform, was screened for a select few people earlier this month.  So far there is no actual release date listed for the film.  Hopefully the screening will boost the film’s profile and help with distribution etc.

At the time of writing there has been no sign of Thom Barry (Will Jeffries on CC) making his debut on the TNT drama series Perception.  We reported last month that Thom had scored a recurring role as a senior FBI field office boss.  Perception stars Will & Grace‘s Eric McCormack as neuropsychiatrist with schizophrenia Daniel Pierce who assists the FBI with difficult cases through his ex-student, and now FBI Special Agent, Katie Moretti played by Rachael Leigh Cook (Josie & The Pussycats).  This week’s episode was number seven of the season’s 12 so there are still a few to go.  Maybe next week.

The complicated history of the Irish drama An Bronntanas which stars John Finn (John Stillman in CC) is becoming a little clearer.  Made last year as a five part drama series it was due to be shown early in 2014.  That time came and went.  A couple of weeks ago (as reported previously) a 2 hour film edit was screened on the closing night of the Galway Film Fleadh (festival).  Apparently it went down a storm (pun very much intended).  Now it is looking like the 5 episode version will be broadcast over the Xmas period on the TG4 Irish TV network that part-funded the production.

I doubt those of you interested need to be reminded by me but writer and producer on CC Veena Sud‘s follow-up show The Killing will start the end on Friday.  The drama, which was on the AMC network for its first three seasons, was picked up by the Netflix streaming service for one more short six episode run.  After a very successful first season the show has been a mixed bag for viewers who, I’m sure, hope it goes out on a high.  Of course if it is a success for Netflix (they never release audience figures) who knows if it really will be the last that will be seen of it.  On a side note: just last week the lead actress Mireille Enos (World War Z) gave birth to her second child with husband Alan Ruck (Spin City).  Congratulations to them both.

It almost feels wrong to do so but I am going get through a CCCC-up without mentioning Tracie Thoms (Kat Miller on CC).  Damn!  So close!  :-)

Cold Case S03E02 – The Promise Full HD Screencaps

Cold_Case_S03E02_lilly_038Lilly Goes To College…  Sadly it is not a 21/22 Jump Street-style caper or a… romp 😉

This one hardly counts as a cold case, the embers were practically still warm.  The 2004 case of a college freshman’s death in a fire at a fraternity house happened just a year before the re-investigation.  The CC squad take up the chase after the student’s father brings them evidence suggesting that his daughter died in far more suspicious and horrible circumstances.

It’s a bumper crop this week for our Summer Of HD with 141 Full HD (1080p) Lilly screencaps, 4 on set photos and 6 promo photos from The Promise. They are all in the Gallery.

Kathryn @ CBS Stars Party – July 2004

dodger_stadium_001The last public appearance post I did was an update from 2004.  The most recent (though it shouldn’t have been) entry in the KM UK Summer Of HD 2014 series was the Cold Case episode Colors, which was about a baseball player in the 1940s.  In the post I made joking reference to the CC squad playing baseball.

This update neatly ties those two key elements together, apart from the bit about the squad playing baseball.  I’m not going to claim it was planned that way, but it worked out well.

On the 18th of July of 2004 much of the key cast Cold Case cast were promoting the upcoming second season.  They stopped off in the Dodger Stadium (that’s baseball right?) for the CBS Stars Party.  It was hardly an arduous trek as the venue is in central Los Angeles, close to Hollywood.

The photos, such as the one above, of Kathryn, Danny Pino, Thom Barry and Jeremy Ratchford make for the simplest game of Where’s Wenda? ever.  I know that sounds wrong but look it up and you’ll find I’m right :-)

It’s a small but perfectly formed update of 6 little photos added to The Gallery.
