The Coin To Première At ShortFest – Update x2

palm_springs_international_shortfest_2013_600x730

Fabien Martorell has sent a Tweet, following a Facebook page post, that his short film The Coin will première at the Palm Springs International ShortFest on Saturday the 22nd of June. It will be at a 1:30pm screening at the Camelot Theatres in Palm Springs.

The short film, which stars Kathryn Morris and Christopher Lloyd (Back To The Future), was filmed last summer and revolves around a young boy meeting a homeless man at a shop. Kathryn plays the boy’s very stressed mother.

The official programme for the event is not due to be released until tomorrow (9th June 2013) but Fabien has clearly been given the information ahead of time.

We wish everyone involved in the production all the best with the event.

You can read more about the ShortFest at the event’s website.

Update (9 June 2013): The official programmes have been released by the ShortFest organisers. The Coin will be screened alongside 8 other short films in a package called FantasyLand. The group is comprised of films from all over the world including France, Taiwan and the United Kingdom. As The Coin shows, these short productions can include some internationally famous actors. An entry in FantasyLand from England, called Dust, stars Alan Rickman (Die Hard) and Jodie Whittaker (Attack The Block). Fellow Brit actors Ian McKellen (X-Men), Brenda Blethyn (Little Voice) and Christopher Eccleston (Dr Who), and singer and The Voice UK coach Tom Jones also have roles in other films across the festival.

Update (10 June 2013): The Palm Springs International ShortFest official press release announcing the 2013 line-up has been published. You can read it here. The world premiere of The Coin and Christopher Lloyd starring in it are mentioned, Kathryn is not name-checked but it’s an incredibly lengthy and impressive list of actors from all over the world so we’ll forgive the oversight on this occasion

Sunday’s Mother Premières Today

Today (1st of May 2012) the short film Sunday’s Mother is due to première at the Newport Beach Film Festival in California.

The film will be shown with 5 other films in a collection titled “Don’t Cut Your Family Short” at 4pm local time. To quote the official blurb from the Festival Genius website (which also has details of the screening):

After moving to a new school, Sunday is confronted by a bully who claims he has a scandalous secret about his newly-divorced mother.

Kathryn stars as Gillian, that newly-divorced mother.

Sadly, according to our information it is unlikely that Kathryn will be attending the screening.

We hope to bring you more news from the event later but for now we’d like to wish the cast and crew the best of luck with the event.

Wedding Date Anniversary

At almost exactly this time last year I very cleverly, if I do say so myself, posted a set of photos tenuously linked to a major news item of the day.

The two things were the William & Kate Royal Wedding in April 2011 and the January 2005 première of the rom-com movie The Wedding Date. See what I did there? Kathryn was not in the wedding or The Wedding Date. She did not attend the wedding in London but did attend the movie première in Los Angeles 5 and 1/2 years earlier.

To mark the anniversary of that post, and also the Will & Kate’s nuptials, I have added a massive 70 small images to the existing collection of photos the event (the première, not the wedding) in the Gallery.

Kathryn @ She Wants Me Première

Of course she does. Who wouldn’t

We like seeing the old old photos again. We like seeing new old photos for the first time. But sometimes we really want to see new new photos. Luckily this is one of those times.

Last Thursday night (5th April 2012) saw the première of the movie She Wants Me.

Starring Josh Gad, Hilary Duff, Kristen Ruhlin, Charlie Sheen and Johnny Messner it’s a comedy about film maker Sam (Gad). Sam has promised his aspiring actress girlfriend (Ruhlin) the lead role in his next film just before the hottest actress of the moment (Duff) says she wants the role.

And Kathryn’s involvement? Well, SWM producer Danny Roth was also a producer on Cougars, Inc. Can’t spot any other reason for her presence at the moment. Answers on a postcard 😉

Stalker Sarah M (her own description) managed to get a snap with Kathryn at the event and has very kindly allowed KM UK to share the photo, as you can see on the left. Many thanks to her.

You can find the very large sized image in the KM UK Gallery.

Kathryn @ Resurrecting The Champ Première – Jan 2007 – Update x2

Kathryn made further appearances on day 3 (Kathryn’s 2nd) of the 2007 Sundance Film Festival.

I should start out by saying that the image above is not part of this update. It is part of a portrait session for the cast of Resurrecting The Champ and it did happen on the same day. As much as I’d love to post an update on it, and savour every extra pixel, I did that last July with the largest versions available No, I’ve used it because it is my favourite Kathryn photo and I don’t need much of an excuse to post it

Along with the photoshoot, the 20th of January 2007 saw Kathryn attend another of those product promotional events, this time at the Marquee Lounge, the Resurrecting The Champ première and after party (8 new images), and another promo event at the Heineken Green Room. In total we have 21 more images across the three events.

Day 4 coming soon.

Update: An additional photo from a Q&A at the première was added just after this article was posted. The image has since been upgraded to one much greater size.

Update 2: Two more large images of Kathryn with her co-star Josh Hartnett at the première.
