Welcome...


To our new site, "Inside the Gold." After our work on "Marion Cotillard's Road to Oscar," K and I decided we are way too obsessed with films to close shop completely. So, after months of planning, here we are again.

While we are not focusing on a particular actor, we will be featuring some more strongly than others. My own preferences and obsessions will become painfully clear, but hopefully K will help me stay as level-headed as possible (K is the voice of reason). Expect lots of drama and excitement during the months leading up to Oscar.

Aside from the film award component, we will be reviewing films (both modern and classic) and sharing our views on all things cinema. There will be no gossip promulgated, no paparazzi photos posted, and no fluff. And yet "There Will be Blood" (and puns! lots of puns!).

We hope you enjoy your visits here and that we are able to provide you with a different and, dare I say it, refreshing perspective of film as an art form as well as an industry. Thanks for your support!

Look forward to what you have in store!

Of course I could count of you, Craig, to post the very first comment! Thanks for checking it out (and take a look at the "Sites to Visit" portion :))

Hey! We're finally up!

Craig Kennedy said...

Right back at you, DP. You are linked.

There are too many movie blogs, but not enough smart people running them so you guys are an exciting addition.

I'm glad to see you're broadening your scope and I look forward to seeing what you guys bring to the table.

Hey you 2! Can't wait to see what you have in store for us :D I'll be visiting often!!

Dorothy Porker said...

You guys are the sweetest. We'll hopefully live up to the expectations.

NICE. I think I'll like it here.

Well, for one thing, Craig has all ready arrived.

For another, you two have a ton of UK people in your header. Lots of people I adore: Ms. Cotillard (DEFINITELY), Mr. Ejiofor, Mr. Rickman, Mr. McAvoy (*swoon*), Mr. Depp (*double swoon*), Ms. Streep (OF COURSE...), Ms. Bonham Carter and Ms. Knightley.

I'm happy to be here. Extremely. Thoroughly. Completely.

I wish you and K the most tremendous success, Dorothy. I'll be around now and then. Just sufficiently snarky to liven up your day a bit. When I return to my site, I'll add you to my blogroll.

I'm thrilled you and K are back in business.

Bravo!!!

All the best with your new site Dorothy and k! It's a treat for all of us when smart and funny people like yourselves introduce a new blog to the world. I look forward to discovering its character and direction.

Dorothy Porker said...

Thanks for the kudos, guys. And a very warm welcome to Miranda and sartre. I'm honored that you have taken the time to visit this new pet project!

Miranda Wilding said...

Well, I can't speak for sartre. (Though I do adore him...)


But I am definitely VERY honoured to be here.

Thanks for the lovely welcome, Goddess D. Feels like home all ready...
