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?

I think you probably know how this goes by now.

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.

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.
