In this month’s Ferreira Fest: Q&As, praise for Robert Carlyle, Captain Kirk, A Blast from the Past, and the most colorful jacket known to mankind.
Hard to believe it’s July already! And it’s time for this month’s Ferreira Fest, the place to celebrate the acting career of Louis Ferreira.
First up, three days from now the SyFy Channel will hold a Q&A with our man, so if you haven’t posted your questions yet you may do so here.
Many thanks to Morag S. Enarah who also spotted this announcement and wanted to share it with you all! Speaking of Q&As – some time ago we were invited to post questions for Louis at Joseph Mallozzi’s weblog. Apparently Louis was so overwhelmed with the vast quantities of questions he received that he answered at least some of them via video, while he was on vacation (one fan calculated that if Louis kept going at this pace he’d have to do a video every day until well into February. You do the math.). Here are the links to the first 3 installments of “The Pineapple Diaries”. Click on the links, and you’ll find out where the title comes from.
Several interviews have unfortunately been lost, but here is the info, in case someone finds them somewhere:
There was a great interview on the Globe and Mail, where he has nothing but praise for Robert Carlyle. You’ll have to watch a short commercial first before the interview starts, but it’s definitely worth the wait.
Also, a somewhat older but very in-depth interview (Communities.dose.ca) with Louis where he also discusses his character’s relationship with Dr. Rush, along with his friendship with Robert Carlyle.
Another older interview with Louis in which he discusses Captain Kirk vs Colonel Young – short, but oh so sweet (The Welland Tribune).
Here is the link to a site where you can download some of his movies – some of them well-known and some that are harder to find, including Blood and Donuts and The Lazarus Child.
SCREEN CAPS
From the Blast from the Past corner: We have some screencaps of the episode “Talk to me” of the series “Cracker” where Louis guest starred as both Jeffrey and Leon. It’s a pretty convoluted plot, and we get to hear THAT VOICE a good bit. Warning: the caps also contain spoilers. 😉 The entire series is available on Netflix. Click here or on the image below to see all the caps.
Louis on TV: Be sure to check both the TV Guide and the IMDB sites, since they find different listings for him all the time! At this moment we have the following listed in the next 2 weeks: Cocktail, Grey Gardens and Renegades, plus several more outside the US.
And that, dear Friends, is about it for this month! Thanks for visiting often! Be sure to follow us on “X” / Twitter for all the Louis news you can handle and TV reminders!
