Nora Zehetner

At long last we have a world premiere date of Drake Doremus’ little known production - Spooner.

indieWire has brought to my attention the announcement of the 2009 Slamdance Film Festival’s film lineup.

The Slamdance film festival takes place in Utah alongside the Sundance film festival, aiming to give a more indie perspective to the festival scene. Their Narrative Feature competition, in which Spooner is making its world premiere, is open to sub-$1million budget productions from first-time directors.

Slamdance will run January 15 - 23, 2009, with Spooner set to screen at 8:30pm on the 18th and 10:00pm on the 22nd.

Slamdance’s website promises more information on its lineup to come on December 16th, so check back here for your Spooner update.

Here’s a short clip for your amusement.

Good news!

I was recently searching the net for new info on the Spooner movie, when I came across the website of cinematographer John Guleserian. I guess he must be working on the Spooner project because, to my surprise and delight, he embedded a video collage of his latest works which included a few scenes from Spooner! Yay :D! Nora is looking so pretty, red lipstick and all… and judging by those few scenes I bet the movie is going to be lots of fun.

To see this almost-an-official-teaser for our long awaited movie, go to: www.johnguleserian.com, then click on the “REEL” link.

Enjoy!

As I had promised, I’ve added the Spooner images to the gallery. These photographs by Frank Ishman are truly beautifual and were all taken on the set of the movie — makes me even more curious!

You can find a few thumbnails on the top right corner of this main page. Click on them to see the larger version or go directly to the Gallery to view all of them. Have fun! And let’s keep our eyes peeled for any new information

PS: As you can see amongst the thumbnails on the right, I also added a little rare image from old TV show Nora was in called “Septuplets”. Click here for the whole album.

Hi everyone! This is my first post here and I’m really excited to tell you that I’ve found some beautiful photographs of the Spooner set taken by Frank Ishman. I haven’t yet added them to the gallery but will do that as soon as Sean adjusts my privileges over there–promise Here is a peek to sate your curiosity a little… Doesn’t she look lovely?

Apart from these images I’ve just mentioned, I really can’t find anything else about this mysterious movie! Though I have found a little about the director Drake Doremus at ExecuProv.

Drake Doremus, a graduate of the American Film Institute in Los Angeles, CA, is the youngest Fellow to have been accepted at the highly-lauded institution and the youngest to graduate from there from its director’s program, since the institution’s inception 35 years ago.

Also, on september 16th, Sean posted that Spooner’s status, as seen on IMDB, had changed from post-production to completed. But now it’s back at post-production… So much mystery… Do you know anything else about Spooner? Share it with us at the comments section
