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…
Last summer I did a movie in Boise, called ALMOSTING IT. It’s always good to write about the work one does, but this one is a little different as I think this film and the way it was made is taking us into new and exciting territory. The industry is changing dramatically and…
Just got back from the UK again, after a good two months doing the round of friends and getting rid of ‘stuff’..it’s that time of life, when we don’t need so many things…or shipping it back to Idaho for my son to sift through or have a giant garage sale. Interesting things going on,…
Another actor I worked with just died…Leonard Nimoy… and I am sad, looking back at the Mission Impossible, I made with him, we played adversaries, who fall in love, not in the plan. And I did fall for him, just a little, he was an intelligent, kind and lovely man and I loved working with…
Ok everyone, I have just made the four films on newchillingtales.com free to watch for everyone, so watch and enjoy and let me know what you think of them! I am planning one more based on a short story by HP Lovecraft. He was another extraordinary American writer, who had a difficult life and…
Ok Friends, a little story of interest, maybe…hopefully. Recently I went through a small life experience, which threw my equilibrium, completely out of whack….no I am not going to share the story, it’s personal and of little interest to anyone but me. I wobbled around for a few weeks and then suddenly I thought…
