Blood, Guts, and Xato



Well, I'm halfway through my trip, and nowhere near ready to leave. I've met tons of filmmakers, Producers, and agents. Here's a quick list.

-Juan Antonio Bayona, Director of "The Orphanage".
-Christian Alvert, Director of "Pandorum"
-Dave Parker, Director of "The Hills Run Red"
-Rob Burnett, Producer of "The Hills Run Red" and Director of "Free Enterprise".
-Linus De Paoli, Director of "The Boy Who Wouldn't Kill".
-Jeffrey Coghlan, A Producer.
-Calum Wadell, of Fangoria magazine.
-Al Matthews, Sgt. Apone from "Aliens"
-Richard Gale, Director of "The Horribly Slow Murder with an Extremely Inefficient Weapon".
-Davy Sihali, Director of "Cam 2 Cam".

The second screening went well. Dave and Rob said some really great things about our movies.

That day we went into Barcelona and spent the afternoon there. If you take the train there, make sure you know where you're going, otherwise you'll get very lost.

We went swimming in the ocean today. The water is extremely clear.

Since the screening is over, I've been kicking back and enjoying the rest of the festival.

Until we meet again.

  1. Xató is a typical Catalan dish. Xató is a sauce made with almonds, hazelnuts, breadcrumbs, vinegar, garlic, olive oil, salt, and the nyora pepper. Xató is often served with an endive salad prepared with anchovy, tuna and baccala....
    Now I understand...looks like you are having a horrific time there.

  2. Don't trust Jeffrey Coghlan.

    He steals old ladies' life savings and then attempts to hide.

    He is pathetic wannabe con artist/wannabe producer.

    He is the antithesis of a real man
