Our dear friend Frog posted at the GIMP forum a great composite work using a picture of Amy. He called it Amy meets the Taliban<\/em><\/span><\/strong>. It generated a few interesting comments, one asking Which Amy?<\/span><\/em> It went like this:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amy meets the Taliban
(Really miss her.)<\/span><\/em><\/p>frog<\/strong><\/span><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Which Amy is that, and has something happened to her?<\/span><\/p>wulf<\/strong><\/span><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amy Hesketh, of Agent X, Maleficarum, Dead but Dreaming, etc. fame. She was a major force behind this forum and saved the GIMP once, much as Reine Margot has done more recently.<\/span><\/em><\/p>

Yeah, she put her clothes on and moved to the other side of the camera. Great for her, but a loss of us. As a GIMP, she was strong and generally quite emotive. She brought us Mila and maybe indirectly Dani. Quite a legacy.<\/span><\/em><\/p>petelobo<\/span><\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Well, since I’m waiting for news from Jac, who is mastering CruXtreme IV <\/span><\/strong>and it is taking many, many hours of processing time, I decide to respond to those comments and make a nice post as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nice work Frog!<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amy is doing great, I remember in January 2017, when Jac and Bea began shooting<\/span><\/em> The Passion of Isabel<\/span><\/strong>, someone asked<\/span><\/em> “Is Bea replacing Amy?”<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I was a bit surprised but not that much, that was the impression people were getting so I wrote a lot about it, one article in particular was:<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From The Subversive Submissions of Amy Hesketh to The Challenging Submission of Bea for the sake of weird and wonderful Cinema!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greetings All, ?? What has happened to AMY?? I must have missed something here! I read where Jac has her tools and will try building sets from memory! I guess when remembering the Red Feline movies with Amy the \u201csets\u201d did not require a whole lot of building!<\/span><\/em><\/p>Lasher (January 2017)<\/span><\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Amy is well, healthy and happy, but she\u2019s in the US for some time with a lot of work and academic pursuits. Jac has the tools she uses to build props like the Spanish Horse and The Rack in <\/span>Maleficarum<\/span><\/strong>. Jac will attempt to build his own version of the Spanish Horse<\/strong>. I had early word that it might involve spikes, it just might. He has the tools and all the materials used before. Bea and Jac discussed the possibility of having Isabel going through that particular torture, I also heard that Bea might want it to be somewhat worse than before. The problem is that they can\u2019t go crazy and use all the tortures available to Torquemada, that would be overkill, so they have to choose and choose wisely. They might submit some of those choices to a vote in the Red Feline Club<\/strong><\/span><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I went on to say that Amy is now promoting her new film, Rucker<\/span><\/strong>, shot in the US, with none other than Corey Taylor<\/strong>, of Slipknot<\/strong> fame in the cast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

https:\/\/www.imdb.com\/title\/tt10701788\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We are preparing the theatrical release in Bolivia of Amy’s two most recent films, Rucker<\/span><\/strong> and Pygmalion<\/span><\/strong>, in the next few months. These films will also see the the light of the projectors in the US in September of this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One comment made me think:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>

She brought us Mila and maybe indirectly Dani. Quite a legacy.<\/span><\/em><\/p>petelobo<\/span><\/strong><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It’s more like one inspired the other. I don’t know if Jac showed Camille the clips we made as a video taped sketches for The Passion of Maricelli<\/span><\/strong>, a film Jac wanted to make but never did. In any case, the work he did with Camille in the early days was for that movie. In a way, I can say that I inspired Camille.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"
Camille and I (on the phone) in a scene in The Man On The Moon<\/strong><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Camille inspired her sister Gabrielle as well as Amy. Because of Camille, Gabrielle decided to join Jac in his adventure of torture and suffering and when Amy saw Martyr<\/span><\/strong> at a film festival, decided to join Jac in the same adventure. Mila was Jac’s find, but interestingly enough, Mila’s sister visited the set of Sirwi\u00f1akuy<\/span><\/strong> because she was friends with the make-up woman. That film was released the year Mila and Jac met and they bet because of Amy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mila was the receptionist at the clinic where Amy was having some work done on her back. Jac spent the time Amy was in treatment reading… get this, JUSTINE! Mila asked what he was reading, he mentioned De Sade. She then asked, What do you do?<\/span><\/em> He said movies. He mentioned the one about to be premiered at theaters, Sirwi\u00f1akuy<\/span><\/strong>. She said. Oh, my sister knows you<\/span><\/em> and then the magic phrase. I’d like to work in films<\/span><\/em>. I think the entire city of La Paz could hear Jac’s heartbeat when he said.. Come over for a test<\/span><\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

When Barbazul<\/span><\/strong> was released it became Bea’s favortite movie ever, she has the original poster with Jac in it, as the central figure, over her bed, she looked for a way to find him and she did. She wanted to be part of the movies… and soon after they met she was in Olalla<\/span><\/strong>, later in Pygmalion<\/span><\/strong>, then Justine<\/span><\/strong> and finally in The Passion of Isabel<\/span><\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Dani saw Justine<\/span><\/strong> at the Cinemateca and contacted Jac right away. “it would be an honor to work with you<\/span><\/em>, she said… and now she has a bunch of films under her belt. She loved Mila in the film.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And then there’s Katherine, who when arrived to do her casting for Monxa Mala<\/span><\/strong>, saw the poster of Sirwi\u00f1akuy<\/span><\/strong> on Jac’s wall and told him: I was so happy I turned 18 when this film came out, so I could go see it!<\/span><\/em> The film was rated R, which in Bolivia is 18+. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amy’s legacy in the world of GIMP is the so many movies she made, both as an actress and director. She’s not done. There’s more to come from her. I can also say that just as it happened before, when Camille quit, or when Amy left, there was someone, somewhere, on her way to meet Jac. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
