I Love Luci to Compete at Clermont-Ferrand Festival
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj1ioLW2NPoyk7iLGCJzyESbUDkhPf9n7iHN_q2ld364UdXLU48ApHPiloy42X8-PRy5WWvNwO0oxteF1kTUJzeySK8ObQLkdVBMJRAy3nNxSHDX1PiJpfn3Te4FcPYkRHG5OqrRrsrniM/s320/ilovelucilogo.jpg)
Sometimes good things happen to good people as witnessed by some great news for I Love Luci, the new short film written and directed by Colin Kennedy.
The new film has been selected for International Competition at the distinguished Clermont-Ferrand short film festival (more here at this link), which runs January 29 through February 6th in France. Described as something akin to Cannes, this is truly GREAT news!
Readers will recall of course Colin and his producer Brian Coffey traveled to Clermont in Feb of 08 before shooting Luci (some fun photos here and here with this classic video here) and now look!!! FULL CIRCLE!
I THINK THIS IS ALL CAP AWESOME NEWS! Thrilled, chuffed, joyful and very proud!... as daft as that may be, I really am! I've heard from Colin who was quite pleased, as are all of us I think, so happy for him!
You can learn more about I Love Luci at the official Facebook website here as well my posts on it here.
I Love Luci was written and directed by Colin Kennedy, produced by Brian Coffey and is a Sigma Films backed project.
Congrats again Colin WE ARE WITH YOU!
GO COLIN GO
GO LUCI GO !!!!

Eva Green on David Mackenzie's Last Word "Very Dramatic"
Then comes The Last Word, the new film from Scotland's David Mackenzie. "It's a love story and the end of the world is in the background," she explains. "It's quite light, really. But what's happening is very dramatic. People lose their senses – it starts with taste, then smell, then their hearing." When we meet, Green has just finished the Glasgow-based shoot opposite Ewan McGregor (who worked with Mackenzie on 2003's Young Adam). She didn't get much of a chance to explore the city, she admits. "I haven't seen much of it, because we were shooting across five weeks. It was like shooting a TV movie! Crazy. Very intense."
The Last Word is a Sigma Films production; you can read more of my coverage of the film here.

New Photo of Alastair Mackenzie in "The Priory; " Press Night Tomorrow
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEherenHMjaEWJ7wc7ASj1CIpaU1Q_5WAwvfS-jAReGd9f8ER3oBVL9qrZlWXJTWJtf0W-9jYt1zhwB5MR0iQ1GpRDaRyUKfJeP-AtUxHQcLaPgXKlMXcOSYy0M_MEbDIYBk1hEqyZGZw68/s400/AlastairMackenzieThePriory_002.jpg)
Some good news and a quick reminder regarding Sigma's own Alastair Mackenzie who is appearing at the Royal Court Theatre in the production of "The Priory" Tomorrow night (November 26) is press night, so fingers crossed for great news/photos/reviews/ interviews in the days to come.
Speaking of photos, you can see new stills of the cast on the FBpage for The Priory including this ---> new photo of Al (who plays Ben, lover of Apple and iPhone lol) Their Twitter/Facebook page promises new production stills due up here soon, will update once those larger pics are released. UPDATE: Here they come, haha! LOOK AT AL in the military jacket & woo! snogging ;D
because Im a dork
LOOK AT THE deer/buck pillow...Monarch of the Glen anyone ;) heee,uh sorry couldnt resist.

In a recent interview with the Times, Al's co-star Charlotte Riley sets the scene for her character Laura, and Al's Ben in the play:
Laura arrives at a fraught college reunion on the arm of one of her troubled former classmates, Ben. They met at a party the night before and have decided to get married. “They’re just gone,” she smiles. “Proper in love. Like when you meet someone and you just know. Then, as the evening goes on, things unfold; you see her veneer change and things start to crumble underneath.” Laura, it transpires, is a woman with an eating disorder and borderline alcoholis"m.
Just because, watch the trailer again because we need more Al in the world (actually the whole thing looks very funny)
IF ANYONE IS ATTENDING and you fancy, please send in or leave a comment with thoughts reactions reviews photos links etc, all are always welcomed and most appreciated!

International Poster for James Nesbitt "OutCast"; Update on Kate Dickie
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGqFJy-dgKUMlHX6fo_Qy7IJ9801p0tYXYPSLFekrilrcHeCWUUjsXto0DHgjubAHKrKmPkoOOZ5nCxN-CX6C2fhuldX1IiVGELvx5d57j7RkegOnQl4jscMx8ZwsIz8u6gAnbnKZN_CU/s400/OUTCASTInternationalposter.jpg)
Check it out! Thanks so much to Bankside, we now have a gorgeous high quality edition of the brand new International poster for Colm McCarthy's Outcast, starring James Nesbitt and Kate Dickie. This is the second poster released, and you can also see a larger photo of a menacing James wielding a knife here, altho a slightly different version of it has been of course seen here before and has been on the Irish filmboard website and twitter.
Just as well document in Scotland, Irish film is good for the economy, as "ALMOST ONE fifth of tourists who visited Ireland in 2008 cited film as a reason for coming here, resulting in a tourist expenditure of €369 million, according to a new report on the Irish audiovisual industry,"with both Outcast, Triage and others surely playing a part Again it belies credibility that the film industry in both countries are facing significant funding cuts from the government in face of such clear proof of success and demonstration of a clear need for continued substantive support , but there you go.
On a happier related note, there are recent photos of the great Kate Dickie (Red Road, sigma's upcoming Donkeys) who was also at the Seville film festival with her movie "Wasted". Kate also has been super busy, and was also featured on the finale of "Garrow's Law" for those who were lucky enough to see it on BBC 1.

Video: Alastair Mackenzie in Trailer for "The Priory" at Royal Court Theatre
Jeremy Herrin's production of The Priory by Michael Wynne opens NOVEMBER 19 at Royal Court Theatre and is described as follows:
Kate is delighted when she finds a country retreat that ticks all the boxes. Gathering together a select group of her closest friends to celebrate New Year's Eve, she is keen to start 2010 afresh. But successful, stressed-out thirtysomethings in search of a good time in the sticks can make for one very fearsome party... and some surprising resolutions.
Michael Wynne's buoyant new comedy takes a microscope to modern dilemmas about life, love and retro board games.Michael Wynne's previous plays include The People Are Friendly and The Knocky for the Royal Court, and Sell Out, Dirty Wonderland and The Boy Who Left Home. He also co-wrote the film My Summer of Love.
Director Jeremy Herrin's recent work includes Tusk Tusk, The Vertical Hour and That Face, all at the Royal Court.
Tickets are going fast, book now! Looks wonderful, wish I could be there opening night but safe to say we are all pulling for you... GO AL GO!!! xxxx

You can learn more about Luci via Colin's blog here
or at the official Facebook group here.
woot!Sigma is well noted for their short film background, and I am fully confident this showing bodes well for the future of Luci in the days and months to come!
One random and unexpected delight turned up while reading the program, and it involves incredibly JAMIE SIVES! Yes, The Knickerman short film is screening Thursday, November 17th heee! classic...and speaking of pants :p those bellbottom type jeans Jamie sports in this film are hysterical...oh he wears them well lol but it looks so outdated now ...wonder if he got to keep those (or they were his own to begin with, I think most of us if we are honest probably owned a pair similar to those lol ) If you can't make it to the festival you can watch the entire thing below :D
The Knickerman from sonja phillips on Vimeo.
So please just let me simply say THANK YOU SO MUCH
and to Colin and the wonderful people at Sigma, words defy but I think you know...thank you.

sorry for the absence
there. Ive written it. cold words on a blank page for a cold fact that she lost her battle against ALS which is cold crappy horrible disease, but then again so are most terminal diseases...yes the brain tells me these facts, the heart is having a hard time accepting them as reality. While with the hours of driving back and forth, being caregiver, being rather on autopilot and away from much of what I love my friends and watching in some sort of abstract life parade before me, the last few months have been...really hard, at times horrible ...but I can only imagine what it was like for her....unable to move to speech to feel to express in the old manner we all take for granted- worse lovely generous wonderful person she was, mom was far more worried about my dad my brother and I than herself and it breaks my heart, just breaks it breaks it breaks it. I dont know what to say now.
I do know I've missed loads of things of late, such as the baftas (disappointed that NTK didnt win) or the official release of Spread on dvd or Dougrays new film with RJ or new pics from eagle or lunas awesome meeting with Colin Farrell at Seville or the Clash of titans teaser trailer (someone PLEASE find pic of my beloved Jamie Sives in this movie I've been searching for months and ugggh nothing gah) and most especially I feel Ive not been keeping up with Sigma-for this I very much regret and hope to back writing about very soon.
Sorry again

One Night in Emergency to air in Scotland before Christmas
Silver River’s first drama, One Night In Emergency, goes out on BBC Scotland before Christmas and has been lined up for a network slot next year. The 60-minute drama is a modern interpretation of Homer’s The Odyssey set within a hospital and has a twist “like The Sixth Sense”. It stars Grey’s Anatomy’s Kevin McKidd and Michelle Ryan.
Tickets are available for the screening of ONIE at the Inverness Film Festival in a few weeks (Nov. 13) at this link. No word if Jamie or how many of cast and crew will be there for this. Hopefully some kind soul will send in or release photos /report from the event!
Hope does remain there will be a good showing of cast/crew for the Scottish premiere of Valhalla Rising at the same film festival as noted below, it will be the closing gala event on the 15th. Ticket info here ALONG WITH WALLPAPER for the event here smaller/larger

Well it's not much of an update on Alastair Mackenzie Im afraid, but there were a few things I thought worth noting:
Jeremy Herrin's production of Michael Wynne's THE PRIORY at the Royal Court Theatre featuring Sigma's own Alastair Mackenzie is of course well into rehearsals (follow the RCT twitter here) Of interest, the schedule of various special nights including press night AND A POST SHOW TALK NIGHT are now online. If you are still trying to book tickets these dates seemed interesting lol No idea if Al will participate either

Also, for those that dont follow the Facebook page, there will be a cast and crew screening of MONSTER MUTT this week on Thurs, Oct 27 at the Arclight in Hollywood. Doubt Al will be there due to his theatre obligations but you never know. Recently the producer Harvey Lowry and director Todd Tucker gave an update on the film(which is now OFFICIALLY COMPLETE), which hopefully we will all get to see soon.
http://www.shocktillyoudrop.com/news/topnews.php?id=12358
"We’re a week away from completely finishing Monster Mutt," Tucker tells Shock. "It’s a family fantasy film about a family dog that gets kidnapped by a corporation, they use him for testing and turn him into a monster dog. It’s lovable big monster dog, all practical FX. It’s a creature suit and an animatronic head." "It’s very much character driven, it’s PG so it’s not gory or anything," confesses Tucker. "It’s really got the old feel of films that really inspired us like Gremlins and ET and Harry & The Hendersons, films that were all very family driven. And I tried to make something that had a contemporary feel to it, but also the spiritual feel of the old Spielberg films. We hope to have it out sometime next year."
Word: Two Wheelin with Ewan
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh8ysTX02ZohPAX_1fHdgDvXc89qb6fCoGfht-vFg4s-xdwhISZs0CXI4LBL2iNN1X5KSX35sB7lsVrNbhLWdpQBkoCrj5qdBOj4cWpl4yt5mSkw_3jnRCDvC4qKd4iw_E8lRv6ucGoU-M/s200/Picture+4.png)
LOL I luvs the internet! This fun random offbeat piece of film news popped up on the daily google crawl regarding Ewan McGregor and something he sports in David Mackenzie's Last Word film...No, it wasnt the clothing (he sports J.Lindeberg during at least one scene), rather his choice of transportation...of the two wheeled kind that is :) The kind we saw in the article here with his ride in the park!
As noted by Tokyo Fixed Gear, they "built Ewan a bike for his upcoming movie The Last Word. The movie is set in Glasgow & directed by David Mackenzie. He's riding a Gorilla Hattara frame & he's wearing clothing from Pedal.e.d, CCP & Swrve. Ewan took two, one to ride in the movie & one to add to his "collection", he told us he has a Pake (Another brand coming soon!). He seems to love all things with two wheels, when he was down in London he borrowed a bright green Cycroc & rode it round W1, would have been good to get a photo of that.If any one wants a Gorilla we will be selling their bikes in our soon to open shop. We will be taking pre orders on their amazing new trick bike soon!" You can learn more about TokyoFixedGear here.
Filming has now wrapped on Sigma Films The Last Word, with a release set sometime for next year (doubt it will be ready for Berlin, but oho it sure would be grand to see that at Edinburgh, may be too earlier even then but still hope remains! ;)
Related: Thanks much to Scottish Actor Blogs we now know fans in the US will see Ewan on TV again soon, as he will be on Jay Leno tomorrow, and the hilarious Conan Mon, Nov 2. Doubt he will talk last word, prob that goat thing ;p

Reminder: Valhalla Rising Thursday at London Film Festival
Speaking of Valhalla Rising, there are new comments from producer Karen Smyth who was understandably disappointed at the ommission of Valhalla from the curious choices made for this year's Scottish BAFTAs. As noted in the Scotsman:
Karen Smyth, the co-producer of Valhalla Rising, said that while she wished the nominated films well, she was "speechless" and "hurt" to discover that her feature had not made the Bafta list. She said: "Bafta Scotland is a very inward-looking organisation that rewards effort, not excellence. Sadly, Scotland is too small a country for a jury to gracefully concede the value of a film. "I cannot believe that films have been nominated that have not had distribution deals. Our film is opening nationwide in March, and has been at Venice and Toronto, where it was the first film to sell, and it's going to the London Film Festival. I think that because it has an international outlook, we're being punished with the 'tall poppy syndrome'."
I have no idea what the tall poppy syndrome is, but while personally I am elated over the noms for New Town Killers, all awards of late are seriously fucked up things and never make any sense to me. Plus I had to chuckle sadly over the elusive SCOTTISH film critic quoted in the paper about Scottish films and never having heard of them: He said: "I'm a full-time film writer based in Scotland, but not only have I never seen half of these films, I've never heard of them. "You would be hard pushed to find anyone outside of Bafta Scotland or Scottish Screen who have seen all these productions, and even then I'm not so sure."Pendreigh expressed astonishment that Valhalla Rising, a historical epic filmed in Argyll, was not shortlisted. He added: "To me, the idea of a best film prize in this instance is not for the best feature. The ground rules have been changed in the hope that a prize will provide a boost to an unknown film. "Valhalla Rising is an internationally acknowledged film that's shot entirely in Scotland that stands head and shoulders above anything else."
Well, lets be honest, both NTK and VH weren't exactly swimming in critical and fan acclaim but still it is good news that VH is going to be shown abroad true enough (Im NOT disparaging either) I also agree on the film selected (why not Wasted if the directors were nominated??? and where the f are noms for FEMALES-did we not learn a lesson from the embarrassing Sophia nom-who was great in Hallam Foe, but personally I thought Claire Forlani who was superb, should have gotten a nom with about five other women from other movies oY!) I dunno anything about Kurdi, but the Crying with Laughter certainly got enough buzz at Edinburgh Film Festival time, even I heard about it across the ocean lol but anyway I still think the LARGER PROBLEM IS there is not enough discussion or coverage of Scottish films in general- no NOT the techy webbie/marketing types , I'm talking about regular folk you know wee nothing fans like me who buy the tickets, posters soundtracks dvds, do websites on their own free time, stand in the rain/cold/heat hours on end at premieres etc. Imdb sure as hell is NOT the answer folks, bring it home and take it forward. ....And of course this is only one minuscule part of the problem-lack of funding, promotion of a variety of films, supporting long established groups like sigma are more..but ok I think ill shut up for now and just hope that Valhalla Rising will be shown in theaters in US (some countries are due to see it starting in early February; hopefully the website will be live soon too)
PS I am quite remiss for not pointing out that VH is screening at this film festival in Turkey.
Minor Note in the Song of Eagle
As noted before, crews are already long in Scotland and will be until the end of November, filming on various locations in the highlands (here is my earlier post on that). Yesterday, hundreds of movie sites such as comingsoon carried the news that actor Tahar Rahim has joined the cast. Its a great cast with a great ffng director; he really is. There are also quite a few very cool extras, such as Toby and Richard who have both been kind enough to stop by with news and comments. Ted over at all things foe also has another on site report from an extra, and pics of PICTS can be found at Facebook. I also strongly encourage you to follow the channgingtatumunwrapped blog and their twitter for more that i can or will be posting here. sorry

A higher- quality- but -with -Italian -overdubs -edition of the new trailer for Triage is NOW ONLINE AT YOUTUBE. While its in Italian, its much nicer than the trailer I first told everyone about (and is now making the rounds-keep on spreading that word, go Jamie, Go Colin Go!) Fingers crossed we will get the HD English version soon too lol :) Now updated too, I have a few screengrabs of Jamie Sives from the trailer up on my flickr.

You can see the entire cover art below-thx dvdcovers- with the DVD (already long available for rent ) also available for download via ITunes for UK residents only (no word if we will ever see it here in US, but the DVD will play on my mac, so Im ordering the DVD as soon as I get some extra cash, cant wait for that making of feature! :))

Scottish Screen: A Sigma Films Case Study
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhOpI7GYbbPuKMgZONyqDjHOn6LypBUp05welCB1-bUPVC98Ixhxb6c8GMfH7zl9pZxVOAFBNPbtHEN3bJzQSbi_WKUt2hvJtd0Q_Fb9Kt5RyivH0Nk3Gy5XOpR8Pod2y_sSlfdZmKHa6o/s200/Picture+9.png)
In its newest brochure, Scottish Screen has a number of case studies, including one on Sigma Films. Called "Sigma Films Slate Fund Award Case Study," this piece makes mentions of the funding provided to the dynamic independent film production company in Glasgow. The article says that the Slate fund exists to "provide leverage to companies seeking to secure additional finance and consolidate market interest in their slate of projects in development."
It goes on to list some of the films we already know about including Ewan Morrison's Swung (script developed apparently), and The Ordinary which frankly intrigues me the most, as well as two on the backburner but still being worked on, the adaption of some sort of the book by Pelle Sandstrak called "Mr. Tourette & I " as well as one called lol...beers steers & queers (and if this is the western David talked about once wanting to do ...lolol) Personally I believe there are others but this is what the article mentioned and nary a peep on The Last Word. They then of course bring up ADVANCE PARTY II and tiny mention of 'SOON TO BE RELEASED DONKEYS''
DEAR PEOPLE OF SIGMA
WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH DONKEYS... *sigh* (Im doing that alot today lol) but oy it surely would be great to know...just sayin :)
Anyway, my understanding on this whole UK funding business is murky at best so I think its better just to hear from the great Gillian Berrie, Sigma's co-founder and managing director who is quoted as saying:
"In order to survive, Scottish filmmakers must not only embrace the industry on an international level, they have to compete and succeed in both the creative and business sides of the arena. Scottish Screen recognizes the challenges we face and is a critical supporter of our endeavors to maintain Scotland's presence in an often turbulent and unpredictable market. Our industry would not survive without that fundamental support."
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZl79fnOpXn6e69LAOm-xwjb_pOlQud6og8Kvho4dUj6FsQeISDhoux4WTyUpiK0nxNzAWWdGWr3HheLBrifq1Nx-TcOWnCYNCZexpqkNq3t6ZgRvj0qIlv9raCKR7hZAXIVm0nd7JS84/s320/Picture+8.png)
HEAR HEAR! Whats more confusing to me is that given the statistics and numbers contained in the Scottish Screen brochure ie the film and creative industries are bringing in literally BILLIONS of dollars to the Scottish economy, as well as all the not so dread film tourists, you know wee nothing people like me, who represent huge numbers and dollars to see places in Scotland where films were made and so on WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO CUT THIS FUNDING? It all makes absolutely no sense to me, rather akin to shooting yourself in the foot and then saying oho I cant walk right ... anyway, there is also a nice piece on Valhalla Rising, Summer (with Kate Dickie ) and more, well worth a looksee. Hope to get these up on my flickr soon but you can download it here PDF

New Video: Ewan McGregor, Eva Green Close Up Filming a Scene from "The Last Word"
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhAr5W0AdVsG3wjxo15yU5jVYMG0ric0hdPVUFGdPvkKpU4yLIINz813JfM_jC52RMQ_cHtyugIJGRzRIdLhFrn37SYJdYoDoeCf-fCxIrzMHOXieN1CSluTXeC6PhLhm49xNjKOHIXhTM/s200/Picture+2.png)
UPDATE: Just been told they are filming all week (until the 16th) on Hyndland Street (pic here on flickr) & Rd as well as Lawrence St & Caird
Well I have a feeling this wont last long, so go quick! Three very very brief clips (rehearsals here and here, with the scene below) of Ewan McGregor and Eva Green filming a scene near Kelvingrove Park from David Mackenzie's The Last Word. As seen below, you can see the crew from Sigma, then the camera pans over as Ewan leaps out of the green car (sporting that mask) yanks his bike out the back and Eva out of the car slams door shut, then they walk into some sort of building NO DIALOGUE is heard, but still very thrilling. Each clip is very very short, but still WOOT thank you Claire!

Also, thanks much to ever vigilant EvaGreen web, you can see some additional high res pics of Eva, plus a couple pics of the duo in a car, wearing masks. No idea where they obtained their photos (no sources given) or where the car scene was shot, but check out more in their galleries.
Esp the one where you can clearly see the mike and camera and the crew guys on that special bike, cool :)

UPDATE: You can also see this brief article from the Sunday Herald online (print copy had a few more pics) that showed a couple of extras in a scene where they are fighting over food or something in the streets. The paper noted:
Survivors seemed to be battling for last scraps of food with a wheelie bin overturned and debris strewn across Blythswood Street.
Fists were drawn as two actors fought one another on the ground.It drew a few onlookers as the camera crew captured the latest scenes for the film The Last Word. Police officers were brought in to help with traffic flow as city centre streets were affected by the filming yesterday morning.
But it left a few early-morning motorists somewhat irate, and horns were sounded when they were held up as a camera crew on a trailer headed along Bothwell Street.Officers were trying to keep the streets clear while a car sped along.

More Location Filming for Eva Green and Ewan McGregor in "The Last Word'
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuIud9J-K5PN7BysRiRPWukD85CmLVFFx9IoFfO12nvL9C62a4TvFsQfR3bjGhhC4HOUwpoOl1dQt8nB9xoqvCFtmyfeGK3SnwSBeBlZNS_yePVsjWCqKuxoetcIB6yu-t7vra7reSMz4/s200/Picture+2.png)
Production continues this fall week in Glasgow, Scotland for David Mackenzie's "The Last Word."
First, be sure to check out my updated Master List of Cast/Crew for Last Word (more uptodate than IMDB I assure you)
UPDATE: Check out the books that Chef Ewan will be using...from Oxfamglasgow, GREAT CAUSE GREAT JOB SIGMA! kudos for this!
"Yes, a chunk of our own cookery stock has passed audition and will star in David Mackenzie’s “Last Word”. None of the books were available for comment at the time of writing (they’re in a box en route to the set) but a source close to the books (me, like) said they were ecstatic and looking forward to the experience. They will return to their day job here next weekend, to raise money and find a new home."
Next, thanks to good ole The Sun and Mr. Paparazzi, there are more new photos from filming now online. While already in gorgeous high res over at the awesome EwanMcGregor.net and here in the galleries of Evagreenweb.com, the Sun published a typical goofball story today with the headline heralding
"I'm Cordon Ew" good lord...

and features a photo of Ewan McGregor in his chef's attire ...lmao-beats my cookin up a storm headline by far hahaha err or maybe not :P
As only the Sun could do...quotage..."
MOVIE hunk Ewan McGregor dons a chef's outfit to eye up his dish of the day - tasty co-star Eva Green.Star Wars heart-throb Ewan, 38, and Bond girl Eva, 29, were filming The Last Word on location in Glasgow yesterday.
One onlooker said: "You could say Eva looked delicious!" Meanwhile, the Scots actor has told how he was attacked by a GHOST on his 20th birthday.He said the spook left a huge burn mark on his dressing gown as he ran a bath in a shared house. Ewan added: "I was so freaked-out I left."
HAHAHAHA yea ok I wanna be drunk and write stories for the Sun yea
