It’s our favorite time of year again, Rhiana’s birthday!  And we have a lot to celebrate this year, with Rhiana’s new short film making the rounds and our girl starring in the latest Gloria Jean’s coffee ad running in Australia!  We’re very sure that even more exciting things are on the horizon as well, and we’re looking forward to seeing all of them as they happen.  So raise your glasses, everybody!

We have wonderful news!  The trailer for “Julia,” Rhiana’s new short film, is online and viewable!  Director Luca De Simone has posted it on the Vimeo channel of the International Film School of Sydney.  And as you’ll see, Rhiana’s in top form!

Thank you to Kerri, who spotted this!  Rhiana’s starring in the newest Gloria Jean’s coffee ad!  You can see it here, and we hope to have some screencaps up in the next day or two!

Gorgeous work!

We’ve just received fantastic news from film director Luca De Simone — he’s just made a short film called Julia, featuring our girl! He’s sent us some lovely stills from the film, which are below…

But we also got another amazing piece of news: we’ll be able to post the trailer for the film in the very near future! Keep an eye right here, and on our message board, for more information as it becomes available! We’re very excited!

Welcome to the new space for the Rhiana Griffith Fan Club, with its new design! We’ve upgraded all of our programs, kicked out a bunch of annoying hacker-types who apparently thought they were clever, and now we’re settling in on our new, improved space! We’re still going to be tweaking the site design over the next few weeks, so if you have any suggestions, we’d love to hear them! Let us know if you spot any broken links, or if there are any files or pages that you particularly remember but can no longer find. Everything should be intact, but you never know. Enjoy!

We’re in the middle of upgrading a few things, in preparation for our belated Birthday surprise, and the message board will be down for a day or so. We apologize for any inconvenience. It’s almost time for that surprise, and we’re really looking forward to showing it off!

Woo hoo! It’s Rhiana’s 23rd Birthday today! We’re sorry that there isn’t a birthday banner up — yet — but a mixture of technical difficulties (My computer sucks! — Ardath) and heavy academic load this semester have delayed it… slightly! We hope to have it up — along with some other fun surprises — by the weekend! In the meantime, let’s all raise our glasses to our girl!

It’s that wonderful time of year again! Today, Rhiana turns 22! This should be a very exciting year for our girl, and we’re all looking forward to many brilliant things to come. Happy Birthday, Rhiana, from all of us at the RGFC!

Rhiana’s in America! Word is that she’s in Los Angeles right now, doing auditions and meetings for the 2007 Pilot Season and movies. We’re hoping we’ll have some great news to report soon! In the meantime, we’ve been sent a new publicity still! This is Rhiana’s gorgeous new head shot!

Are those the most beautiful eyes in Hollywood or what?

We have a lovely new image of Rhiana, thanks to Sydney’s Daily Telegraph gallery. The Sydney Museum of Contemporary Art had its 15th Birthday Party on November 9, 2006, launching its 2007 season, and Rhiana was one of the celebrity attendees snapped by photographers! It’s a lovely shot of our girl, whose own exhibition, Le Cirque du Perdu, has now completed its run in the Tighes Hill Gallery and the Gaffa Gallery.

We love this new image!

The latest article from the Newcastle Herald just came out and it’s amazing! At Rhiana’s two upcoming shows, she’ll also be showing a painting by Silverchair’s frontman Daniel Johns!

The two are apparently good friends, and Rhiana persuaded him to do a painting that will be displayed during the two shows and auctioned to benefit the charity World Vision. These shows are going to be very hot!

The Herald has also made mention, again, of an upcoming acting role for Rhiana. We’re hoping to have more to report about that soon!

Wonderful news! Hunter Life has just published an article about Rhiana and artist Gareth Graham, who will be exhibiting together at the Tighes Hill Gallery at the end of September! Their show will run from September 28 to October 16, featuring a mixture of her paintings and his sculptures. The article also has some cool news about upcoming acting projects; we hope to learn more soon!

In additional, wonderful news, Rhiana has another show upcoming, in Sydney! She’ll be exhibiting at the the Gaffa Gallery in Sydney’s Surry Hills, from October 26th to November 7th. Especially given the fascinating things Rhiana has to say about her new paintings, we’re very excited!

We just got word that Wrong Answer has been nominated for Best Film of the Festival at the Great Lakes Film Festival! This is, as you can imagine, news that has us very excited.

Want to go see it and cheer it on? It’s scheduled to play on Friday, September 22, in the 7:00 PM block of short films. A ticket to that one block is $4.00. Prices are higher if you want to attend more events that night, or more days of the festival. Full information, and directions to the Roadhouse Theatre, can be found here.

Woo hoo, Rhiana, Jon, and Laura!

The next film festival has been announced!

Wrong Answer will next travel to Erie, Pennsylvania for the Great Lakes Film Festival, which runs between September 20 and September 24, 2006.

The schedule has yet to be published, but as soon as it’s up, we’ll post the dates and times of Wrong Answer showings here. Tickets to individual screenings are $4. An all-day pass to the festival is $10, and an all-access pass to the entire festival is $25. The festival will be held at the Roadhouse Theatre For Contemporary Art in Erie.

We’ll keep you posted as we learn more!

For those of you interested in attending the 15th Annual Brisbane International Film Festival, you can now get your tickets to the showing of Wrong Answer. The schedule has been published and the film will be shown on August 11th at 7:00 PM in Southbank Cinema 3, and runs right before the feature-length film Em 4 Jay.
