Amelia Warner

19 March 2004

Jill has sent a bunch of Love’s Brother updates:

Production stills: Palace Films FINALLY posted some new production stills at their Love’s Brother listing. There are some rather nice, professional photos of Amelia (some over 300kb!).

Sneak Previews: The www.lovesbrother.com website has listed 44 theaters (all in OZ) which will be having sneak previews Friday, Saturday, Sunday March 26, 27, 28.

Publicity Tour: That website also has released a bit more information about the publicity tour. Amelia, Adam and writer/director Jan Sardi will be on a 2 week tour hitting all of the major cities Down Under (starting last Monday with the Sydney premiere). On Tuesday March 22nd, they will be at a Melbourne screening followed by a premiere in Daylesford at the City Hall. The film was shot in the surrounding area outside of Melbourne and the City Hall will be transformed back to its 1920 movie hall roots for the event. A fan did post at the adamgarcia.net forum to report that she had heard a rumour that they would be appearing in Perth on the 25th at the Ace Cinema in Subiaco.

Press: The Sydney Morning Herald had an interview with Jan Sardi (video footage too) but he didn’t mention his stars at all, focusing on filmmaking. www.smh.com.au/articles/2004/03/17/1079199286785.html

Another Down Under update from Caz via Jill. This is Tuesday’s Daily Telegraph (Sydney newspaper). The article has a major hometown boy slant to it, barely a mention of Amelia, but the photo is rather nice. You can click on the thumbnail to enlarge it.

No, Adam's legs are not that short!

I hope to have a little something for you all in the next day or two. Stay tuned...

Once again it's big thanks to Jill for this Love's Brother premiere update. Also thanks to Caz in Syndey for letting me use the photos of Amelia. (These photos also appear at adamgarcia.co.uk)

"Adam and Amelia arrived together by limo and he accompanied Amelia down the 10 foot long Red Carpet in a 5 minute dash."

"Not a large crowd, nothing like you would see in London, NY or LA. While Adam signed autographs and greeted friends. There was a small crowd, mostly family and friends of those involved in the filming (perhaps only 20 fans), along with a few newspaper reporters and 1 TV camera."

"Unfortunately Caz didn’t get a good picture of them together She said during the time between her pressing the button on her digital camera and when the picture was actually taken, people kept walking in front of her. The Red Carpet was very relaxed, no barriers or anything. (Tom in the blue shirt, standing with Amelia, is Adam’s older brother.)"

Publicity should be continuing over the coming days.

12 March 2004

Jill had updated me with some Down Under news:

"It has been reported today in The Daily Telegraph (Sydney Confidential gossip section) that the LOVE’S BROTHER premiere will be held this upcoming Monday [15 March] in Sydney. The premiere kicks off at the Palace Cinema in Leichhardt about 6.30 pm. The stars that will be attending are: Adam Garcia, Amelia Warner, Barry Otto and Reg Mombassa."

I bought a copy of InStyle (UK) today and Amelia is indeed in the magazine. It took me a while to find her but she is on page 137. I've scanned the photo and you can click on the thumbnail image below.

(She's sitting beside "Moschino's creative director Rossella Jardini" in case you were wondering.)

6 March 2004

A couple of people have been in touch to tell me that Amelia was in the March 2004 issue of InStyle UK. I saw "was in" because the issue presently on the shelves is dated April 2004! I'm trying to track down the March issue and when I get my hands on it I will report back and hopefully do a scan.

UPDATE! I've heard that it's actually the April issue. I'll confim that later when I've bought a copy.

27 February 2004

Jill tells me that Aintitcoolnews.com had posted Quint’s interview with Adam Garcia and can be accessed at www.aintitcool.com. Halfway down, he mentions how Amelia (or as he calls her Millie) is just one of the boys…. and there is a lovely picture from the film.

17 February 2004

Jill let me know that sometime over the weekend the official Love’s Brother website was updated. There's a fair bit of info on the movie to be found and the movie appears to be opening in Australia in April. No sign of UK or other release dates yet. If you're an Australian you should head over to the site to try and win tickets to some previews in March.

10 February 2004

I found a Love’s Brother page at www.moviebus.com and I found a new official site at www.lovesbrother.com.

I've moved the pages yet again, this time to geocities. Please bookmark this location.

9 February 2004

Jill kindly sent along some more Love’s Brother info. There's a very positive review posted on aintitcoolnews and I've quoted a couple of the Amelia comments below just because I like them...

"Mark my words, this film will be the launching point for many of tomorrow's stars. Specifically, I predict in the next few years you'll see Adam Garcia's face on the cover of many teeny-bopper magazines as well as the jaw-dropingly beautiful Amelia Warner posing in the pages of Maxim or another like magazine to the glee of all red-blooded heterosexual males in the world."

"She is flat out amazing in this film. Her character doesn't talk much, but gazing into her eyes you have an immediate understanding of her state of mind. Her hazel eyes reflects her character more than 10,000 words can. Her beauty is just stunning and it's easy to see why a person can fall in love with her with one grainy photo."

Jill notes that the reviewer attended the Thursday screening. The Saturday screening was called the World Premiere and was to be followed by a Q&A session with Jan Sardi and Adam Garcia.

By the way, I got my hands on the UK Glamour mag that featured Amelia and I shall be attempting some scans...

14 January 2004

Jill got in touch to tell me that the long-awaited Love’s Brother will have two showings in the International Competition at the Santa Barbara Film Festival on the 5th and 7th of february. More info can be found at the festival’s website www.sbfilmfestival.org.

Over on the Official site (www.ameliawarner.com) there are a couple of lovely new pictures from Glamour magazine.

I'm trying out a new look for the site. Hopefully all the links still work! Let me know if anything is behaving oddly.
