										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Nuwe komedie, <em>Liewe Kersfeesvader</em>, se W</strong><strong>ê</strong><strong>reld Premiere by KykNET se Silwerskermfees, laasweek.</strong></p>
<p>Die prettige Afrikaanse rolprent Liewe Kersfeesvader, het verlede week tydens KykNET se Silwerskermfees, sy Premiere in Kaapstad gehad.</p>
<p>Geskryf deur Ettiene Fourie van <em>Die Windpomp</em> en <em>Dis Koue Kos, Skat – </em>faam, het ook die regie behartig. Stefan Enslin van Faith in Motion Productions staan in as vervaardiger, met vorige produksies soos Strikdas en Nul is Nie Niks Nie, onder sy belt. Die produksie spog met ‘n veelsydige rolverdeling, waaronder sterre soos stars Mila Guy, Morné Visser, Milan Murray, Dean-John Smith, Terence Bridgett, June van Merch, Melt Sieberhagen en nuweling Eloff Snyman, as Hugo.</p>
<p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfbBGLx0Ly4&#038;t=29s">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfbBGLx0Ly4&amp;t=29s</a></p>
<p><em>G</em>eskiet op die rustige Karoo dorpie Pins Albert, wat sterk herhinner aan <em>Little Miss Sunshine</em> en <em>Hunt for the Wilder People</em>, lewer Liewe Kersfeesvader ‘n uiters amusante blik op die lewe van ‘n jong, vurige, tog huiwerige skoonheidskoningin genaamd Nonnie, gespeel deur Mila Guy. Wanneer haar ma, vertolk deur Milan Murray, die gesin verlaat vir ‘n lewe in die sirkus en haar pa, vertolk deur Morné Visser, sy nuwe identiteit as Kersfeesvader aanneem, word Nonnie in ‘n oomblik se tyd geworpe in volwassenheid. Vasgevang tussen ‘n losskroef pa en vatbare jonger broer, gespeel deur Eloff Snyman, bevind sy haar tegelyketyd in ‘n groeiende romanse met haar vertroueling Wouter, vertolk deur Dean-John Smith. Hierdie omstandighede waarin sy haarself bevind, noop haar om haar eie definisie van ‘familie’ te herdefinieer.</p>
<p>Ettienne Fourie voer aan dat <em>Liewe Kersfeesvader </em>‘n ongelooflike persoonlike storie is vir hom. Hy noem dat dit handel met familie temas, die uitdagende oorgang van kindwees na volwassenheid en bovenal, die liefde. “Dit gee ‘n blik op die lewens van ‘n tipiese, klaarblyklik onbelangrike familie, wat uitsonderlike uitdagings ondergaan “, sê Fourie. “Dis ‘n verhaal wat lig werp op die keuses in die lewe soos om lief te hê en jou familie te aanvaar – nie tenspyte van nie, maar liewer vír hulle tekortkominge.”</p>
<p><em>Liewe Kersfeesvader </em>word versprei deur Times Media Films en begin 17 November 2017 landswyd draai.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Edwin van der Walt speel die rol van Dap Smit in <em>My Father&#8217;s War</em>:  &#8220;Ek is Verlief op hierdie rol&#8221;</strong></p>
<p>Deur Louw Mulder, Geredigeer deur Hanri Wondergem</p>
<figure id="attachment_4029" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4029" style="width: 250px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-3.png"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-4029" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-3-393x300.png" alt="Edwin van der Walt" width="250" height="191" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-4029" class="wp-caption-text">Edwin van der Walt</figcaption></figure>
<p>Daar was oor die afgelope paar jaar ‘n oplewing in die Suid-Afrikaanse filmbedryf. Dit het tot gevolg dat Suid-Afrikaanse akteurs se loopbane fyn dopgehou word. Een van die Suid-Afrikaanse akteurs wat sy staal deur veelsydigheid wys, is Edwin van der Walt. Die eerste filmrol wat hy vertolk het was in <em>Hollywood in my Huis</em>. Vandaar het sy loopbaan vlam gevat en was hy te siene in <em>Die Pro</em>, <em>Ballade vir ‘n Enkeling</em>, <em>Modder en Bloed</em>, en nou, die lang verwagte <em>My Father’s War</em>.  Ons is die geleentheid gegun om dié akteur beter te leer ken.</p>
<p>As seuntjie van net nege jaar oud het Edwin sy passie vir toneelspeel uitgeleef deur byvoorbeel karakters soos <em>Mr. Bean</em> na te maak. Edwin het uitgeblink in rugby en dit oorweeg om dit sy loopbaankeuse te maak. ‘n Sameloop van omstandighede en ‘n passie vir toneelspeel het hom egter in ‘n ander rigting gestuur. Hy het by die Universiteit Stellenbosch ingeskryf vir ‘n BA-graad in Drama.</p>
<figure id="attachment_4041" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4041" style="width: 250px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-8.png"><img decoding="async" class="wp-image-4041" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-8-334x300.png" alt="Edwin van der Walt in Hollywood in my Huis" width="250" height="224" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-4041" class="wp-caption-text">Hollywood in my Huis</figcaption></figure>
<p>“Dit was in Stellenbosch waar ek gegroei het, en waar ek my <em>toolkit</em> gekry het om the <em>act,”</em> vertel hy oor die verhoog wat aanvanklik sy speelveld was. Die produksie, <em>Bos</em>, was sy eerste verhoogstuk, onder leiding van regisseur Marthinus Basson. Basson het ook die regie van <em>A Cock and Bull Story, </em>waarin Edwin saam met Dean-John Smith te sien is, behartig. “Teater was my pad na die rolprent bedryf toe, maar ek sal altyd terug keer teater toe. Dit is daar waar jy jou <em>toolkit</em> weer vol maak. Teater het ‘n ander fokus en hou jou nederig,” sê Edwin.</p>
<p>Drama is in sy are en met die lokket-treffers, <em>Ballade vir ‘n Enkeling</em> en <em>Die Pro</em>, het gehore aan Edwin se lippe gehang, angsbevange het hulle toegekyk hoe ‘n mede-karakter in sy arms sterf. “Emosionele tonele <em>challenge</em> ‘n akteur so baie,” verduidelik Edwin, “Ek self is ‘n sensitiewe en emosionele mens.” Daarom, sê Edwin het hy uit die staanspoor besluit om op ‘n emosionele vlak met sy karakters te verbind. “Sodat ek regtig kan voel wat daardie persoon op daardie stadium sou voel.”</p>
<figure id="attachment_4034" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4034" style="width: 250px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-5.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-4034" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-5-373x300.png" alt="Edwin van der Walt in Die Pro" width="250" height="201" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-4034" class="wp-caption-text"><em>Tiaan in Die Pro</em></figcaption></figure>
<p><em>Die Pro</em> was die eerste rolprent wat vir Edwin uitgedaag het om diep in sy eie emosies te delf. Self het hy nog nooit ‘n baie goeie vriend aan die dood afgestaan nie. Hy vertel dat hy, saam met regisseur Andre Veltz, op ‘n emosionele reis moes gaan om die karakter beter te verstaan. “Ek moet gedruk word om te voel wat daardie persoon sal voel, om darem <em>justice</em> te doen daaraan vir iemand wie al regtig daardie seer gehad het.”</p>
<p>Dan is daar die kenmerkende toneel uit <em>Ballade vir ‘n Enkeling</em>: ‘n skreeuende Jacques Rynhard met sy pa in sy arms. Dié is pas noodlottig gewond. Jacques Rynhard dink hy het self die sneller getrek en die doodskoot gegee. “Voor daardie toneel, toe Jacques gedink het hy het sy pa dood geskiet, het ek myself afgesonder om in daardie <em>zone</em> in te gaan, om myself in te leef wat hy moes deurmaak, maar ek het besluit om rou in daardie oomblik in te gaan toe ons die toneel gaan skiet het. Dit was als in daardie oomblik.”</p>
<figure id="attachment_4037" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4037" style="width: 425px" class="wp-caption alignleft"><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-6.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-4037 size-medium" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-6-425x185.png" alt="Luan Jacobs en Edwin van der Walt in Ballade vir 'n Enkeling" width="425" height="185" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-4037" class="wp-caption-text">Ballade vir &#8216;n Enkeling</figcaption></figure>
<p>“Die maklikste emosies om te speel, is die wat die verste is, en die moeilikste emosies, is die wat naby is.” Hy probeer verduidelik: “Partykeer maak dit nie vir my sin nie. Ander kere doen dit.”</p>
<p>Edwin erken dat hy ‘n rebel-streep in hom het. Dan verwys hy na die “rebelse fase” wat hy in sy hoërskooljare beleef het. Maar dit spyt hom nie, hy kon daaruit leer en nou kan hy hom vereenselwig met ‘n karakter wat ‘n rebel is. “Ek wil nie net ‘n rebelse rol speel omdat dit nog ‘n rol is nie. Ek moet in detail verstaan hoekom daardie karakter rebels is, sodat elke rol nie dieselfde vertolk word nie.”</p>
<p>Met hierdie volwasse uitkyk op sy professie, is dit geen wonder dat hy in sy loopbaan reeds hoë hoogtes bereik nie. Die genre maak nie vir hom soveel saak soos die karakter nie. Sy karakter in <em>My Father’s War</em> is een van die eerste rolle wat hy vertolk waar die karakter ouer is. Dit maak die karakter meer ingewikkeld, aldus Edwin.</p>
<figure id="attachment_4035" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4035" style="width: 250px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-4.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-4035" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edwin-4-334x300.png" alt="Edwin van der Walt in Modder en Bloed" width="250" height="225" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-4035" class="wp-caption-text">Modder en Bloed</figcaption></figure>
<p>‘n Diep siel met baie liefde in sy hart, baie vrae oor die gebrek aan ondersteuning van sy pa, baie vrae oor die lewe en daarom die rebelse manier. Dit is wat Edwin verklap oor die karakter, Dap Smit. “Dap is ‘n komplekse jong man, soos ‘n seun sou wees wat op 19-jaar oud nog nie ‘n pa gehad het nie, en hom graag daar sou wou hê.” Dan voeg hy by: “Ek is verlief op hierdie rol.”</p>
<p>Oor die verhaal self het hy die volgende te sê: “Ek dink die verhouding tussen pa en seun, dit waaroor die storie gaan, is ‘n metafoor vir ander verhoudings. Die film gaan daaroor om vir mense te wys hoe hulle optree teenoor mekaar, en hòè eerlik en reguit hulle teenoor mekaar is. Ons steek soveel dinge vir mekaar weg, wat eintlik gesê moet word.” En dan ‘n brokkie wysheid: “Die waarheid sal jou vry maak, en dit is wat vir my ongelooflik is, dat die Smit familie die nodige stappe gevat het om weer gesond te word. Seer plekke moet eers rou word, voor dit gesond kan raak.”</p>

<p>Vir Edwin, was die hele <em>My Father’s War &#8211;</em>ervaring ‘n avontuur, ‘n ontdekkingsreis oor ‘n deel van die geskiedenis wat aan hom onbekend was. “Ek was geskok om te leer hoekom die grensoorlog gebeur het. Ek het met regte rekkies gepraat, wat my laat insien het waaroor die oorlog gegaan het… en nie gegaan het nie.” Met sy goeie vriend, Stian Bam aan sy sy (Stian vertolk die rol van Dap se pa) is die ontdekkingsreis aangepak. En dit was omtrent ‘n reis – veral die helikoptervlug met ‘n “regte rekkie vlieënier”. “Dit was so <em>cool</em>.”</p>
<p>Buiten vir Stian , vir wie Edwin baie respek het, is sy gunsteling Suid-Afrikaanse akteur Jacques Bessenger. Jacques was ook saam met Edwin in <em>Ballade vir ‘n Enkeling </em>en <em>Modder en Bloed</em>. “Jacques is so <em>amazing</em>, en ek het baie tyd vir hom. Sy spel kry iets reg wat min akteurs reg kry, en dit is basies om so min as moontlik te doen, deur so veel as moontlik daaruit te sê.” Van al die Afrikaanse rolprente die laaste tyd, was <em>Sink</em> Edwin se gunsteling: “Ek het dit gekyk by die Silwerskermfees en dit was die eerste film waar ek gevoel het Suid Afrika is besig om <em>boundaries </em>te skuif.”</p>
<p>Tyd vlieg in die teenwoordigheid van iemand soos Edwin van der Walt. Hy praat maklik oor sy filosofieë oor <em>acting, </em>die lewenslesse wat hy uit sy rolle leer. Hy lag en skert oor snaakse dinge wat al op stel gebeur het.</p>
<figure id="attachment_4045" aria-describedby="caption-attachment-4045" style="width: 250px" class="wp-caption alignright"><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edd.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="wp-image-4045" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/Edd-306x300.png" alt="Stian Bam en Edwin van der Walt in My Father's War" width="250" height="245" /></a><figcaption id="caption-attachment-4045" class="wp-caption-text">Saam met Stian Bam in My Father&#8217;s War</figcaption></figure>
<p>Edwin straal ‘n opregte menslikheid uit wat my tot die besef bring dat die rolprentstêrre op die silwerdoek maar ook net mens is. En na net dertig minute voel dit of ek en dié akteur al vir jare vriende is.</p>
<p>Vrye tyd is min vir Edwin, daarom sien hy sy mooie meisie nie so gereeld nie. As hy die dag tyd het, vang hy ook graag vis saam met sy pa. Hy werk tans aan <em>Rock What You Got</em>, potgooie van onderhoude met Suid-Afrikaanse akteurs, musikante, politici en entrepreneurs. Edwin voer self die onderhoude oor onder meer swaarkry tye, suksesverhale en lesse vir die jonges. Sy volgende uitdaging voor die kamera is die rolprent <em>Jagveld</em>, maar intussen wag daar ‘n lang toer deur Suid Afrika met <em>A Cock and Bull Story</em>.</p>
<p>Van ‘n arm outjie wat gebreide onderbroeke moes dra tot ‘n talentvolle skrywer wat die bullebakke in ‘n verbeteringskool moes oorleef. Van ‘n gebroke takhaar <em>surfer boy</em> van Vlakplaas, tot ‘n jong man wat amok maak in ‘n konsentrasiekamp tydens die boere oorlog… Edwin staan nie terug vir enige rol nie. Volgende, is hy te sien op die Grens as ‘n rebelse jong man wat deur die waarheid vry gemaak word. Sien Edwin van der Walt in <em>My Father’s War</em>, wat op 5 Augustus in fliek-teaters landwyds begin draai.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Richard Zajdlic and Richard Crowe&#8217;s &#8220;knockout hit play&#8221; comes to Montecasino.</strong></p>
<p><em><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Cock-7-BUll-4.jpg"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-3498" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Cock-7-BUll-4-300x200.jpg" alt="Dean-John Smith and Edwin van der Walt in A Cock and Bull Story" width="425" height="283" /></a>A Cock &amp; Bull Story</em> is the localised reimagining of British playwrights Richard Zajdlic and Richard Crowe&#8217;s blockbuster play of the same name. At the hand of Quentin Krog, director of the film <em>Ballade vir a Enkeling</em>, and actor Geon Nel, the setting is transferred to contemporary suburban Cape Town.</p>
<p>The production features Edwin van der Walt from <em>Ballade for a Enkeling, Hollywood in my Huis, Die Pro</em> and <em>Modder en Bloed</em>, and also <em>My Father&#8217;s War</em>, which starts at cinemas in July.   Alongside van der Walt will be Dean John Smith, who was the 2014 Fleur du Cap Award winner for Most promising Student.  Undoubtedly, van der Walt and Smith are two of South Africa&#8217;s most promising young actors, and can be seen under the direction and design of Marthinus Basson with lighting designed by Chris Pienaar.</p>
<p>TJ (Dean-John Smith) is a promising young boxer on the eve of a bout that could make or break his career. He is waiting for his friend Jaco (Edwin van der Walt), who always prepares him both mentally and physically for his fights. TJ&#8217;s confidence has waned after a recent humiliating defeat against tonight&#8217;s opponent &#8211; and Jaco is late.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Cock-Bull-3.png"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignleft wp-image-3493" src="http://www.stageandscreen.co.za/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/Cock-Bull-3-300x221.png" alt="Dean-John Smith and Edwin van der Walt in A Cock and Bull Story" width="425" height="313" /></a>For TJ boxing is not just a passion, it&#8217;s an escape from his lower middle-class background and a passport to a better life. Jaco on the other hand has to measure himself against the long shadow cast by his father, a local legend with underworld connections and notoriety as a street fighter.  But tonight is a battle of a different kind. Instead of measuring their strength in the ring TJ and Jaco will test the limits of friendship in the locker room.</p>
<p>This exciting two-hander is filled with testosterone induced male bravado, from bragging about girls to locker room chatter and excessive physicality. However, underneath this veneer is a delicate exploration of friendship, sexuality and mutual dependence.</p>
<p>Gritty and fierce, the characters are challenged psychologically and physically, making for an exciting, emotional and gripping journey of discovery.</p>
<p>Praise for &#8216;Cock and Bull Story&#8217;: &#8220;Burns with frightening aggression and authenticity. No punches pulled, so be warned.&#8221;   <em>City Limits</em></p>
<p>&#8220;Cock and Bull Story convincingly dares to shatter the myths of class and masculinity.&#8221; <em>The London Guardian</em></p>
<p>&#8220;A not-to-be-missed battle of brawn versus brains.  What&#8217;s great is that it&#8217;s not simply the story of a spirited young boxer who goes for gold, but ultimately the story about the fighter and lover in all of us. The rich text, crackling with witty banter and loaded with physical and emotional conflict, motivates the actions of two men trying their best to save a friendship that means more than winning the game. If you&#8217;re looking for intelligent theatre with punch and vigour, Cock And Bull Story is just what you need. Exceptional.&#8221; <em>Daniel Dercksen – The Writing Studio</em></p>
