Did anyone watch “A Mother’s Courage” yesterday?

April 3rd, 2010

Did anybody see A Mother’s Courage: Talking Back To Autism (aka The Sunshine Boy) yesterday on HBO?
If so, what did you think of it?

I’m dying to watch it myself as I’m very interested in the subject and my mother used to treat autistics. :)

KWF has a brand new look!

What do you guys think of it? I totally love it!

And I would like to thank my dear good friend Luciana for helping me with the final touches. :)

Flyer for casting call for Mildred Pierce

The miniseries, based on the book from 1941 by James M. Cain, tells the story of Mildred Pierce Beragon, a single mother of two daughters in the Great Depression trying to make ends meet, financially and emotionally. It will be directed by Todd Haynes, also a co-writer, who directed I’m Not There and Far from Heaven.

Organizing things for the ultimate comeback!

February 2nd, 2010

Hi guys,

I’m sorry I wasn’t able to fulfill my promise about the December updates.

Anyway, for the past couple of weeks I’ve been gathering and organizing stuff from late September up to the present moment and hope to be catching up on the site before the Oscars.

I’ve got hundreds of new photos, videos, scans, etc. So once again I’m sorry for not updating, but my job consists of taking care of over 300 abandoned cats and rescuing some from the streets. So by that, you can only imagine how time consuming it is! :)

That’s it for now. See you guys by March-ish!

Comment and let me know what you most want to see on KWF!

Take care,
Roberta

Follow me on twitter if you want. :)

Quick edit: I’ve just created KWF’s twitter as well. ;)
