  1. wow, wow, wow, you are bragging. :) Lucky you. Have fun.

    Ours Film Fest is in late Sept so it will be too many months until I get my complete fix.

    Thinking about it, if I keep it up, I may get a few preview films to watch before Sept. And I will do a few directors' interviews some weeks before Sept. OK, not bad la. Ha ha, time to set a reminder to get in touch with my NFB contacts and other publicists.

    Still, on a big screen, it will be Sept until I can my films "fix".

    Have lots of fun la.

  3. Are you trying to change your name from mad dog to yellow cow? Now that you got all the tickets. Duke of Aberdeen is very mad. I am going to be a tattletale and tell him you got all the tickets and want to be a yellow cow ... ha ha ha ha ha.

  4. mad dog,

    I do directors' or filmmakers' interviews for my blog and try to publicize films I like. To me, it is nice to understand how the filmmakers think in their creative process.

    Last year, I called Christoph Schaub in Switzerland, co-director of a wonderful documentary about 鸟巢. They managed to gain exclusive access to the architects at Herzog & de Meuron. Chatting with Christoph about his film “Bird’s Nest: Herzog & de Meuron in China” was exciting to me as I think they did a wonderful job sharing their unique insights. Not your typical PR highlights of 鸟巢.

    Check out the trailer and have a listen to the interview if you like.

    Feel free to check out some of my other filmmakers' interviews that I've done over the years,

    P.S. Film is just one of the things I am interested in. Another side is business (and making money). :) Plus I do have a wide range other interests, your typical "jack of all trades, master of none".

  6. mad dog,

    I have been reporting on the Film Festival and the Banff World TV Festival (an TV industry executives and producers gathering) for my blog. Yes, my blog. You sounded a bit surprise, ha ha. :)

    Nope, I didn't interview Werner Herzog. I wish I had as it would be a lot of fun. After all, Werner did eat a shoe after losing a bet with a friend who later would win an Oscar for his documentary. :)

    I am looking for someone who is willing to bet a shoe with me. :)

    Here is Herzog eating a shoe. Enjoy.
