Passion = Truth? How Jeffrey James Francis Ircink Sees The World? I love when people are passionate about something. That surging of emotion is the one honest measure of what truth is. It's a truthful display of how a person really feels about something or someone at that particular moment. That passion IS truth.

Happy Birthday, Seymour!


You know character actor Seymour Cassel. Come on...Faces (Oscar nominee), Coogan's Bluff, Minnie and Moskowitz, The Killing of a Chinese Bookie, Tin Men, Dick Tracy, Honeymoon in Vegas, Indecent Proposal, Rushmoor, 61*, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Flight of The Conchords - and, our short film, Pass the Salt, Please.

78 years young today. Watch this clip from PTSP at the Wisconsin Film Festival in 2012. Seymour was a hoot. That pic above? Seymour recounting (to me) his experiences working with friend, John Cassavettes.

First day of shooting "Pass the Salt, Please." film.

SHERMAN OAKS, CA. Emmy winner and Irish Film & Television Award winner Fionnula Flanagan (Waking Ned Devine, The Others, Some Mother's Son, Ulysses, Lost) and Academy Award nominee and NSFC Award winner Seymour Cassel (far left, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Faces, The Royal Tenenbaums, Indecent Proposal, Minnie and Moskowitz, Tin Men) on the set of the short film, PASSER LE SEL S’IL VOUS PLAÎT, an adaptation of my award-winning, 10-minute play, "Pass the Salt, Please.". Directed by Tatjana Najdanovic, Director of Photography Matt Boyd, and executively produced by actors Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Rhada Mitchell.

Pretty cool, eh? First day of a 2-day shoot went great. Fionnula and Seymour are wonderful. I've know Seymour for years (just haven't talked to him in years). And I feel like I've known Fionnula forever. Course, she IS from Ireland and you know my love for Ireland and we chatted about her native land and she wants to read more of my plays, blah, blah, blah.

You really don't wanna hear any more Hollywood crap, do you? More pics coming soon!

What do Jonathan Rhys Meyers, Radha Mitchell, Seymour Cassel & Fionnula Flannagan have in common?

















(Top to bottom, left to right) Fionnula Flanagan - Emmy and Irish Film & Television Award winner (Waking Ned Devine, The Others, Some Mother's Son, Ulysses, Lost); Jonathan Rhys Meyers - Golden Globe and Irish Film & Television Award winner (Bend It Like Beckam, The Tutors, Elvis, Alexander, Velvet Goldmine); Radha Mitchell - Australian Film Institute and Screen Actors Guild nominee (The Crazies, Finding Neverland, Silent Hill, Phone Booth, High Art), and Seymour Cassel - Oscar nominee and NSFC Award winner (The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, Faces, The Royal Tenenbaums, Indecent Proposal, Minnie and Moskowitz, Tin Men).

Well, Myers and Flanagan are Dublin-born actors (which is cool 'cause I love the Irish and Ireland). I can't give you the entire answer but I will say this...I'll be working with all of them soon. SKOL FAVRE! SKOL VIKINGS! (Even though the team is sucking hind teat this season). WHOO!
