Happy 4th folks…from a blazing Boise (hot that is). I understand it’s the same in the UK. It’s too hot to do much, 105 degrees Farenheit, I feel like I’m in a Tennesse Williams play, sex, heat and mint juleps, nothing to do but lie around and lose one’s temper a bit more easily.…
Last night had the pleasure of attending the premiere of a film I shot last summer as an actress for hire (my favourite role)….ie: get the script, get the offer, turn up and do the job….I love it and wish I had more of it, still musn’t complain, I have had a good run, over…
I thought my heart would break and I was crying uncontrollably watching BAND OF BROTHERS, a viewing long overdue (it was made in 2001 for heavens sake)…. this was the episode where men from Easy Company (the Band of Brothers) stumble upon a concentration camp at the end of World War II. They dont…
Oh dear we were careless this week, we lost not one but three dearly loved actors this week. I worked with two of them, Christopher Lee and Ron Moody and remember them fondly, the third I did not know, Richard Johnson, but fine actor he was, great Shakesperean actor. I was in THE NIGHT…
Expanding on a moan of mine….I have tried to watch GAME OF THRONES several times and every time I have given up, it is well done, good production values, apart from some very dark scenes in which you can’t see anything (lighting? Where is Dougie Slocombe, when you need him) and a couple of decent…
I love to act….I always have since I was a small child, sometimes daring to go where few people would…I had the gall to do Cleopatra’s death scene at the age of 15 as one of my auditions speeches for RADA…youthful hutzpah. My dilemma now is that I have three strikes against me for…
The FIFA saga is one of the most unbelievable, hilarious, sad and fascinating stories unfolding before our disbelieving eyes! Now you may not know much about FIFA or even be interested…I am one of those. But I know enough that FIFA has long been the ruling body, in charge of World Soccer, the beautiful…
Last summer I got a call from a young man by the name of …would I be interested in being in a film he was making here in Boise….yes say I, send me the script. He did, plus a link to a short film he had made in Germany….I liked it…I liked the script too….ALMOSTING…
Think I mentioned that I went to a couple of events at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences while I was in London in April. One close to my heart was the tribute to Douglas Slocombe, Oscar winner, now 102 years old, leader of his craft, talented, gentle man and loved by…
Oh dear we are losing our language… our beautiful words, our communication skills, our ability to just talk to each other…I am sad. People don’t want to talk on the phone anymore they just want to text or email and some of our younger friends can hardly speak at all, they use text speak…”R…
