‘General Hospital’ Spoilers For the Week of Monday, July 15 to Friday, July 19: Confession time

General Hospital (Gh) spoilers report Natalia Ramirez (Eva Larue) thinks the worst is behind her and that all she has to do is climb out of this hole she has dug for herself with her daughter, Alison ‘Blaze’ Rogers (Jacqueline Grace Lopez).

But the truth is, the trouble is just beginning for Natalia as Lois Cerullo (Rena Sofer) moves into the gray area of territory that Natalia was already feeling threatened in: motherhood.

Right now, Blaze is full of doubt and feeling hopeless about her future. On top of that, she feels she has little to show for all of the hard work she’s put into her career over the years now that her music label has dropped her for keeping quiet about being gay. As luck would have it, a solution is on the horizon, but not everyone will be happy with it.

While she knows it’s a long shot, she’s put all of her eggs into this basket, hoping that Diane (Carolyn Hennesy) can work her magic in the courtroom and perform this miracle.

Rumor has it Alexis will come to recognize a familiar name on the seat of the board responsible for possibly reinstating Alexis’ license to practice law — Fergus Byrne (Lane Davies).

Will Neil Byrne’s (Joe Flanigan) older brother end up being the catalyst for more than just a potential second chance at the career Alexis loves? Will he end up being someone new for her to love?

Rumor has it this will turn out as a major win for both of them. But what lies ahead may not be quite as simple as either of them envisioned. Diane wants a law partner, and Alexis may not be as ready to move back into the courtroom as she previously thought.

Melbourne/Brisbane-based production company Continuance Pictures has selected the top 25 script submissions for its Continue Short Film Initiative, which aims to establish a platform for emerging talent to create a short to serve as a proof of concept for a feature film or TV series.

Three winners will be chosen from the shortlist and receive up to $10,000 each.

Unexpectedly, the initiative proved popular internationally, with filmmakers from all corners of the globe submitting their film and television scripts. A third of submissions came from female screenwriters, and of the top 25 finalists, over a third were written by women.

Continuance Pictures was founded by Tristan Barr and David Gim, who have hopes that the short film initiative will result in more than 50 shorts over five years.

I had expected that a film which opens as Nicolas Provost's The Invader (L'envahisseur) does would bring something new and interesting to the illegal immigrant drama but aside from a fantastic follow-up scene, Provost's film moves along at a snails pace as Amadou, an African illegal immigrant, falls in love with a wealthy woman and stalks her around the city.

Up until last year, film festivals had always been a bit of a mystery to me. I had gone to a few conventions before and been shown advanced screenings of films, but to actually go to an event where all you did was watch films seemed a bit beyond my reach. Didn’t help either that I had never really lived in areas with affordable or frequent festivals. That is, up until last year when I was introduced to AFI Fest. They hooked me in with free tickets and the promise of engaging cinema from around the world. To say I had fun is a bit of an understatement. As the credits to the last film rolled, I decided that I would come back next year in a more professional manner and write about it.

Which brings us to now. AFI Fest 2011 Presented by Audi is a little over a...

Pablo Giorgelli's Las Acacias. A truck driver has been charged with transporting a woman on the long journey from Paraguay's border to the city of Buenos Aires. He is totally unprepared for the extra passenger that will accompany them, the woman's infant daughter Jacinta, whose penetrating gaze eventually disarms his gruff exterior.

Just a few days after Tiff had announced its first 50 films from this year’s festival slate, the Venice Film Festival has announced their own lineup, and I must say, it’s one hell of a collective.

Criterion Collection nuts will have a field day here, as various directors from the collection will be bringing their new films to Italy this year.

First up, in competition, David Cronenberg will be taking his new film, A Dangerous Method, to Venice this year, making it one of the bigger fall festival season players this year. Steve McQueen’s Shame will play this year, as will Andrea Arnold’s (Fish Tank) Wuthering Heights. Roman Polanski will debut his latest film, Carnage, at Venice this year, as will Todd Solondz, who brings Dark Horse this year.

Out of competition, Chantal Akerman and Whit Stillman will debut their next projects, La Folie Almayer and Damsels In Distress respectively.

The line-up for the 2011 Venice Film Festival was unveiled a little earlier today and this year’s edition looks particularly stacked on the English-language side of things with a large number of dramatic outputs from the U.K. and U.S.

Dozens and dozens of high-intrigue fare are set to be premiering over the two week event which kicks off proceedings on August 31st with the George Clooney directed political thriller The Ides of March as an in-competition film. A trailer was released last night and you can see it Here.

The other big headliners include;
