CBS Summer TCA Party 2009

Or, to give it its full title the ‘CBS, CW, CBS Television Studios & Showtime TCA Party’. Or, to give it a fuller title still, that would be the ‘Columbia Broadcasting System, CBS/Warner, Columbia Broadcasting System Television Studios & Showtime Televisions Critics Association’. But what about the CBS in the middle of that? Do these initialisations never end?!?

The Television Critics Association events take place twice a year to promote new shows across the various networks. The American TV system does seem to be very organised about such things, following a set pattern annually.

If the CBS pilot show The Surgeon General, which Kathryn starred in, had been picked up to series for the fall 2013 season we could very well have seen Kathryn at last week’s Summer TCA. Sadly neither was to be.

Instead we’re going to look back to 2009 for a little Gallery update. I last posted about this public appearance back in 2010 in a wider update covering the same year.

Four years ago Kathryn was not, as far as I can tell, in Pasadena (where these TCA events take place) to push Cold Case specifically. She did attend the after-party as one of the CBS family. These photos are from the red carpet arrivals. Yes, yes, as you can see below the carpet was not red

The four new photos you see around this post now join the existing collection in the Gallery.

The Coin @ Big Bear Lake Film Festival 2013

big_bear_lake_international_film_festival_180x128

Director/writer/producer Fabien Martorell has let KM UK know via a Tweet that his short film The Coin has been selected for inclusion in this year’s Big Bear Lake International Film Festival.

Big Bear Lake is high (6750ft / 2060m above sea level) in the hills of southern California, north-east of Los Angeles. The annual festival covers all types of films has been running since 2000 and will on a long weekend late in September (Friday 20th to Sunday 22nd).

The complete list of films due to be screened this year will be officially announced in a couple of weeks but Fabien has given us the news early, as he did for the Palm Springs International Film Fest back in June.

The Coin is a short film starring Kathryn Morris and Christopher Lloyd (Back To The Future). It was filmed last summer and is about a young boy meeting a homeless man at a shop. Kathryn plays the boy’s very stressed mother.

You can read more about the Big Bear Lake International Film Festival at the event’s website. If you are able to attend do let us know how it goes.

Thanks to Fabien for letting us know about this news, we wish him and the rest of the cast and crew all the best with it.

Plush Back

Amazingly nearly 8 weeks have passed since I posted about Kathryn attendance of the 2013 Plush event. No doubt things have progressed a lot in that time with only a few weeks to go now until the big day.

In the time since the final update to the previous post I’ve managed to collect a few more photos and a couple of videos of Kathryn at Plush. You will not be at all surprised to know that they are now in the Gallery.

The image seen above (no. 32) has been upgraded to a larger size and there are 10 new ones. The two videos include “red (or should that be stained based on the event subject?) carpet” interviews. Screencaps have been created of the main interview video.

Thanks to all those contacted KM UK about various images.

Update (2 Aug 2013): Additional video added. It is an overview of the show. Kathryn appears a couple of times but is seen and not heard. I could make a comment that would get me into lots of trouble after that 😮 Gadget fans look out for the fun looking self-folding pushchair/stroller. It’s a hybrid with an iPhone dock!

Kathryn Can Say She Was There, Can You? – Update

Now, now ladies please stop starring at Johnny Depp like that. It’s very unladylike and is frankly demeaning. He’s not a piece of meat you know!

On Monday (24 June 2013), TV and film producer extraordinaire Jerry Bruckheimer (American Gigolo, Flashdance, Beverly Hills Cop, Top Gun, Bad Boys, Gone In Sixty Seconds, Pearl Harbor, all the CSIs, Without A Trace, The Amazing Race, National Treasure, all 6 (made and unmade, yet) Pirates Of The Caribbean films, The Lone Ranger… I’m sure there is another important one I’m forgetting… It’ll come to me eventually) was the recipient of a star on the Hollywood Walk Of Fame.

With a CV like that Jerry has a huge number of film and TV star friends to call upon to help celebrate. He has made a lot of people rich and famous. And let’s face it he must have dirt on a few of them if they in any way reluctant :-O

Cold Case (Finally! That was the one I was trying to think of before ) is, of course, amongst Jerry’s production credits and there was always a chance that Kathryn made the journey to Hollywood to join in. There was little sign of this in the hours following the event though. You would think that a 7 months pregnant, blonde TV star with a smile that can kill at 20 paces would stand out just a little?

Thankfully, the always on the ball Kareen_T has helped prove that Kathryn was there thanks to a video on YouTube by Kat Tales TV. Kat pounced on Kat(hryn) heading to her car after the event. You can see the video on YouTube HERE.

Knowing that Kathryn was there gave us something to work with. Sure enough I’ve been able to find a few photos and videos of Kathryn at the event. Sadly nothing else that puts her front and centre. She is always in the background. If you can drag your eyes away Johnny Depp for a second you can just make out Kathryn to the right of the big pink star in the photo above. Off to the right is the place to look in most cases.

You can now play a Kathryn-themed “Where’s Waldo?” with a small collection of photos and videos in the Gallery.

Update (26 June 2013): It can be denied no longer. She was there I found a couple more photos.

Yes, tomorrow (Saturday, 22nd June 2013) sees the world première of Fabien Martorell’s short film The Coin, starring Kathryn, Christopher Lloyd (Back To The Future), and Jack Ryan Shepherd.

The 9 minute long work will be débuting at the Palm Springs International ShortFest, a sister event to the International Film Festival held in January each year, in a 1:30pm screening at the Camelot Theatres, Palm Springs. The Coin will be screened as one of a group a shorts under the banner “FantasyLand”. The festival started on Tuesday (18th June 2013) with an opening night of 9 short comedy films from around the world.

We hope it goes well for everyone involved in the project in front of and behind the cameras.

If you are able to attend the event to support Kathryn’s work then please let us know how it went and what you thought of The Coin.
