Sunday’s Mother Left High & Dry At Brownfish

brownfish_film_festival_2012_120x136Despite the disruption to the US East coast caused by Hurricane Sandy recently this past weekend’s Brownfish Short Film Festival in New York City went ahead largely as planned.  The event ended with an awards gala (sounds grand but in reality probably just a small gathering in a bar somewhere) where the winners in seven film categories were announced.

Sadly, the short film Sunday’s Mother, starring Kathryn as the titular parent, was beaten to the Best Drama award by Tammaso Paino’s Chrome.  Obviously we demand a recount!  However, according to the Brownfish website Tammaso is from the UK so we can’t be too hard on him :-)

Congratulations to all the winners.

The Sweeter Side Of Life Abroad

the_sweeter_side_of_life_255x166Later today (1st November 2012) The Sweeter Side Of Life (née Confections Of A Discarded Woman) will be screened for what could very well be the first time.

Don’t go rushing to your local “World Of Cine” or switching on the TV and tuning to one of the various Hallmark Channels though.  This screening is for a select group of people, and would be very expensive to attend.

The American Film Market (AFM) is an annual trade event running for eight days in early November in Santa Monica, California.

afm_poster_100x156.jpgAttendees of the AFM are film buyers from all over the world that go to the event to decide on films to purchase for broadcast or distribution in their home nation.  Over 400 films will be seen in nearly 600 individual screenings during the week-and-a-day long bash.

These viewings are not open to the public just paying members of the industry.  Even a single day pass costs a couple of hundred Dollars.  Staying for the whole week will set you back several thousand.

None of the cast of The Sweeter Side Of Life are expected to attend the AFM screening.  It is also unlikely we’ll hear any news resulting from the AFM but we felt it was worth mentioning as an insight into the way the film and TV industry works.

Sunday’s Mother @ Brownfish Short Film Festival Reminder – Update

brownfish_film_festival_2012_120x136The recent situation with Hurricane Sandy causing a massive amount of destruction along East Coast of the United States has been watched very closely from around the world.  Our thoughts are with everyone caught-up in it.

This coming Sunday (4th November 2012) was due to see the short film Sunday’s Mother starring Kathryn screened at the Brownfish Short Film Festival NYC 2012.  With the significant disruption in New York it is not clear at this time if the event will happen at all.  At present the organisers are considering their options, looking into alternative venues etc.  It would certainly be understandable if the festival was postponed or called off completely.  KM UK is keeping an eye on developments.

If you are considering attending the festival check the event’s Facebook page for the latest news.  Please don’t try and travel to the New York unless it is safe to do so.

Along with 5 other films Sunday’s Mother will be up for the Best Drama award at this New York based festival.  There there will be 22 films in total shown across the three day event.  For more details see the Brownfish.com website.

If the festival does go ahead and you are able to attend the screening of Sunday’s Mother please do let us know what you think of Kathryn’s performance and the film in general.  It would be great to hear some feedback from attendees.

Update (3rd November):  With power restored in the relevant part of New York the festival is going ahead as originally planned.  This means that Sunday’s Mother will be screened on Sunday (4th November) at the Cinema Village22 East 12th Street, NYC, at 4:30pm local time.

Cold Case S01E23 – Lover’s Lane HD Screencaps

Cold_Case_S01E23_lilly_332It’s been a long summer, plus a bit extra.  Is there name for something that goes beyond even an “Indian Summer”?

We finally reach the end of KM UK’s Summer Of HD 2012 and what better way to end it than with the Cold Case season one finale: Lover’s Lane.

The wrongful rape and murder conviction from a 1986 case is overturned by new DNA evidence.  But wait.  Is that another woman in the office?

It’s Detective Anna Mayes (Robin Weigert).  Mayes knows Scotty from one of his previous postings and she’s brought in the released man to talk over the case with Lilly.  The PPD squad and Mayes leap into action to re-investigate.  Detective Mayes actually returns for 3 more episodes across seasons 2 and 3.  The last of those was Start Up (S03E07), the episode just before Kat Miller (Tracie Thoms) graced the squad with her very welcome presence.

Things get complicated for Lil’.  She has clearly got over her reservations about letting Kite get past the front door (so to speak) when one of the chief suspects in the case comes a-knocking on the very same.  Attacked and left for dead in the same crime that saw the death of his girlfriend he finds himself drawn to Lilly (well duh!).  Scotty very helpfully pointed out the similarity between the ladies early on.  He needs glasses but he got the plot point in there.  Lilly doesn’t want to hurt the guy’s feelings as he is obviously still grieving but this causes a strain in the Rush-Kite relationship.

Can they solve the case and mend hearts too?

338 HD (720p) Lilly screencaps from the episode can now be found in the Gallery.

KM UK’s Summer Of HD updates will be back in 2013.

EXCLUSIVE! Kathryn On Set Of 2 Br/1 Ba – Part 2

on_set_20120927_009Welcome to part 2 of KM UK’s exclusives from the film 2 Br/1 Ba.  Part 1 is here.

We have been very lucky and greatly honoured to have gained exclusive access to photos taken on set during the filming of the new movie 2 Br/1 Ba starring Alexa Vega (Spy Kids) and Spencer Gammer (TV show Greek).  Kathryn has a small but crucial role playing a character called Olivia.

In these additional photos we can see Kathryn posing on her own and with a few members of the crew.  The lady in the green top is Kristen Ruhlin, star of the recent DVD release She Wants Me, and a producer on 2 Br/1 Ba.  The bearded gentleman is the film’s director Rob Margolies.

The four new photos you see here, all exclusive to KM UK, are now in the Gallery.

Many thanks to Kathryn, Kristen, Rob, Catie, and the rest of the cast and crew of 2 Br/1 Ba for joining in and helping.

More soon.
