Two things dominated Kathryn’s 2007 public appearances: promoting the movie Resurrecting The Champ and motor sport. And the Monte Carlo Television Festival. Three things dominated Kathryn’s 2007 public appearances: promoting the movie Resurrecting The Champ, motor sport and the Monte Carlo Television Festival. And the Sundance Film Festival. Four things…
The 4th of August 2007 saw Kathryn combine the first two in an interesting bit of PR north of the border when she attended a NASCAR race to promote the movie Resurrecting The Champ. Built on a man-made island in the St. Lawrence River, the Canadian Circuit Giles Villeneuve hosts the Nationwide Series NASCAR NAPA Auto Parts 200. Since it was first run in 2007, the event is the only NASCAR race to be held outside of the USA and one of the few road courses used. I don’t know how it is received by the stock car drivers and fans but the Montreal track is definitely a favourite of Formula 1 fans, having been the site of many classic races. Last year’s event that was effected by severe rain was particularly memorable.
The movie promoting activities involved a participating race car adorned with stickers announcing Resurrecting The Champ’s release date of August 24th, 2007. It can’t have been the most difficult deal to strike because the car was driven by Stanton Barrett, brother of Kathryn’s then boyfriend David.
To business. For this update we could just have posted the 3 small photos from this event that have been seen quite widely for years. Here at KM UK we like to go the extra mile (or 2.71 miles in the case of the Circuit Giles Villeneuve). Not only do we have one of those 3 in a much larger size (the last thumbnail below) than previously seen, we also have the great image that you’ve already noticed above left. We have to thank Eric Gilbert of Motorsport.com for allowing KM UK to showcase his rather enigmatic photo of Kathryn.
All 4 images (2 big, 2 small) are now available in the Gallery.
We will be returning to many of the above topics in future updates.
