Pictures of Alexandra [Topic 4]

[Ian]

We all have faith in you there, fishy.

[Dahls]

A feature film, that's great news.
I hope she's as much in front of the camera as behind it though.

[Hermes3G]

This video makes my week and maybe month. Maybe it's just me, but this vid has the feel of an audition.
Guess it would help if I knew what they were saying.

[fish]

Must be someone with a grasp of conversational French (?) who can help us out.
If we say please.
Nicely.


Alex: "I could help you.
I said could not would."



In the meantime, here's something else for the "Why wasn't I told" folder.



http://www.filmbasen.se/projekt/landet

A 15 min shortfilm project begun in May 2013.

"The country

In a small cottage in the country is 22-year-old Elliot - an educated individual with high philosophical and literary ambitions. He imagines that it was to complete his novel and focus on their "process of self-realization," as he pulled out into the country to live a long time without electricity, water or human contact. But really, he decided to pull when the mother became ill with cancer. He wants to be there for his family, but everyday was too difficult to be left in. In two months, he has now been here all alone.

It suddenly knocks on the door, and in comes big sister Torild. This is the first time they are seen or heard since Elliot left her and the sick mother at home. She has taken time off from his overflowing schedule today to accomplish a specific case: Elliot is her home now. He should stop being naive and playing philosopher, come home and take responsibility for his life and his family.

This is a movie about a confrontation between two siblings in a family crisis, and their different views on how to live their lives."

Any ideas on when we'll get to see this?
If it started in May, it certaintly should be done by now!?


Great find anyway.

[fish]

No idea on that one.
I'm still waiting for news on "Den Rätta" which was due for completion in December 2012.

I'll be keeping my eyes glued to the screen though.
(Maybe that's why I miss so much. )

[Ian]

Lovely photos.

[fish]

Lovely photos.

And now Actors in Scandinavia have a password on the vid.
35 seconds and they've password protected it!

They've done the same with Alex's showreel too, but at least they told you the password on their website. (it's alexandra)
But that doesn't seem to w*rk on this clip.

Stop looking so smug Alex.
It's hard enough to find your pics and clips in the first place without having to find a password to see them.

[Ian]

Too late, anyway.

[Dahls]

So secretive, those Swedes.

[fish]

I can't help thinking they replaced the 35 second one with a 35 minute one before they put on the password.
I hate it when that happens.

Alex thinks it's funny though.

[Ian]

Alex takes far too much pleasure in our misfortunes, if you ask me.

[Dahls]

Cruel, black humour. I like it.


Had a dream about Alex last night, first of what I can remember.

I recall sitting on a porch chatting late at night.
We were alternately arguing fiercely, and just talking pleasently, you know, sharing thoughts and laughing.
I don't know in which of the two moods, could be either one really, but, right in the middle of a sentence, I snuck a quick kiss. (Around this time I must have understood it was just a dream, I would never dare to be so bold irl)

She looked a little baffled, but didn't seem to mind at first.
I apologized, and she said she had to run, and did so, literary.
I called after her, but for some god knows what reason, I shouted out the wrong name.
She came back and was furious.

I think that's about the time I woke up.

[DMt.]

...to find you were standing in the street in just your underpants?

[fish]

...to find you were standing in the street in just your underpants?

...I hate it when that happens.

There's probably some deep psychological reason why you'd spoil things by calling her the wrong name.
Then again, I am envious of anyone who has any kind of an Alex dream.
