“Kaboom” DVD Screencaptures

Lindsey — Fri, 22 Apr 2011 02:28:52 +0000

I’m adding these a little later than I would have liked, but they’re up now! Screencaptures of Roxane in Gregg Araki’s “Kaboom” are now in the gallery. It’s a little sad to see all the promotion for the film come to an end, but it was nice to finally see it. Enjoy! There are some spoilers about Roxane’s character in them, however, so keep that in mind if you haven’t seen it yet.

“Kaboom” Update

Lindsey — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 06:51:02 +0000

Gregg Araki’s “Kaboom” finally has a trailer for its American release. I personally prefer the original that came out to promote in France, but this one features some of the film’s actual soundtrack — you can view the tracklist on Gregg’s Facebook page. Watch below! I’ve also made screencaptures of Roxane’s brief apperances in both the French and American trailers.

“Kaboom” was also recently at the Sundance Film Festival, though Roxane unfortunately was not there to promote with her cast mates. To coincide with the Sundance premiere, the American distributor IFC made it available for viewing on Comcast On Demand. If you don’t have On Demand and have yet to see “Kaboom,” you can either check out this list of screenings in American cities, or wait for the French DVD release, which is March 1st! It’s available both on Blu-Ray and regular DVD. I’ve pre-ordered my copy, so screencaptures shouldn’t be too long to follow once I get it.

Finally, I’ve added the movie’s two posters to the gallery. Take a look!

A proper trailer for “Kaboom” has finally been released, less than a month away from its theatrical release in France. Watch below! It’s subtitled in French, but has the original audio.

Empire Interviews “Kaboom” Cast

Here’s a small gem I missed during Cannes itself! Empire Magazine interviewed some of the cast of “Kaboom,” including Roxane, and it’s the first English-language interview of her I’ve ever seen on video! There’s also a bit at the beginning with “Rubber” director Quentin Dupieux. Screencaptures will be added to the gallery, but you can watch the video below. Enjoy!

“Kaboom” Wins Queer Palm & Finds Distribution

Lindsey — Sun, 23 May 2010 17:01:10 +0000

Two bits of good news regarding “Kaboom” as Cannes reaches its close: it’s found international distribution with IFC, and it won the Cannes Film Festival’s very first Queer Palm, a new LBGT-themed award. Congratulations to Gregg Araki and the rest of the cast and crew (including Roxane, of course!)

UPDATE: “Kaboom” Claims First Queer Palm

Gregg Araki’s “Kaboom” was announced today as the winner of the inaugural Queer Palm, awarded to an LGBT film at the Cannes Film Festival, at a ceremony held at Zanzibar, the oldest gay bar in Europe and popular with gay fest goers. Sponsored by Gallic filmmakers Olivier Ducastel and Jacques Martineau (“Cote d’Azur,” “The Adventures of Felix”), the Queer Palm joins Berlin’s Teddy and Venice’s Queer Lion, similar LGBT-themed awards at other major world festivals.

“Kaboom” on Le Grand Journal

Lindsey — Wed, 19 May 2010 12:31:55 +0000

Back on the night of the “Kaboom” premiere, the cast was on French talk show “Le Grand Journal.” You can watch the interview itself here, although if you don’t speak French you aren’t missing much — it was rather rushed and awkward. However, I’ve added both screencaptures from the video and HQ stills of the interview and set. Check them out below!

Cannes “Kaboom” Premiere

Lindsey — Mon, 17 May 2010 14:47:05 +0000

And premiere photos are finally here! A big thank you to Melfan for some of the pictures and apologies for the short delay. Roxane looked beautiful in her gold Fendi! Be sure to take a look. There are also plenty of reviews rolling in now that “Kaboom” has screened, and reviews are mixed, but not terrible — and all seem to agree it’s a return to classic Araki.

Cannes “Kaboom” Photocall

Lindsey — Sun, 16 May 2010 01:28:44 +0000

Today was the day — well, night — of the premiere of “Kaboom” in Cannes, and earlier Roxane was at a photocall for the film along with several cast members and the director, Gregg Araki. Pictures from the premiere will be coming later, as they’re still slowly trickling online, but in the meantime enjoy these! I’ve added 74 pictures to the gallery and there will be at least a few more to come.

A beautiful new still of Roxane in “Kaboom” has been released! Check it out below.

“Kaboom” at Cannes!

Lindsey — Fri, 16 Apr 2010 15:25:15 +0000

Fabulous news! Gregg Araki’s “Kaboom,” in which Roxane co-stars, is going to screen at the 2010 Cannes Film Festival. It has a midnight screening, so it’s not part of the competition, but nevertheless I hope it generates good buzz for the film and that Roxane will be at the festival to walk down the red carpet.
