Sweden here I come!

I'm at the Newark Airport about to board my flight. Final stop Göteborg, Sweden. I'm feeling really excited about coming home -- despite the season. To top it off I'm flying Skandinavian Airlines.

Extremely glad!

I, for one, am very happy that "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" has gotten an Oscar nomination for best film. I thought the film was wonderful. So moving with amazing performances. No I didn't really want to see a film about 9/11 but I went to see it because I love every one of Stephen Daldry's previous films. And this was is so heartbreaking and so good. Definitely worth checking out!

Aspen Gay Ski Week

Me and my star Matthew Ludwinski x2

I just got back a few days ago from my second trip to Colorado this month (and ever also actually!). And though this trip took me to Aspen for Gay Ski Week this time (sadly) I didn't ski. However I was there to present my new film "Going Down in LA-LA Land" that had been selected to play during their film gala night. Aspen was such a cute little town and I do hope to return some day. Noticeably white though -- and I don't mean the snow.

Matthew at the after-party... Showing Candy what he really can do!

A store bathroom -- where both Paul Newman, Clint Eastwood, and many others have been.

Skiing - finally!

Everyone is always surprised to learn that I don't know how to ski. "But you are from Sweden!" they say. "I'm from the southern part!" I respond. My parents never took us skiing as kids and when I had to option to go during winter sports day at school I always opted out since I didn't know how and didn't want to look bad. And then it just never happened. Until this month.

I finally went skiing a couple of weeks ago in Colorado. It was so much fun! I had an instructor and I think I got pretty good. These pics are from the second day of skiing (I swear my form got much better on the third day. I might even have stopped steering with my tongue).

I did do a lot of cross-country skiing as a kid, and my instructor told me that he thought that's why I picked up alpine skiing quickly now. Here is a shot of me and my sister (in matching outfits!) from back in the day in rural Sweden :) I'm 7 in this picture.

Welcome to my new site!

Happy 2012! I'm excited to launch  my new CasperAndreas.com-site  today with my very own blog. Yes I know -- starting a blog is so 2002 not 2012 but better late than never! I already test-blogged a little (see below) but from now on I plan to post stuff regularly about my movies, my acting, and whatever else I'm up to.  Thanks for visiting and please check in often!

Violet Tendencies

So my last film Violet Tendencies is now airing on LOGO. I don't have LOGO but yesterday I checked it out on Logoonline where one can watch it streaming. Well guess what? They cencured the biss scene! So sad. The Biss scene is the best part!! If you don't know what I'm taking about clearly you haven't seen the unedited version of the film. Lucky for you it's also available at iTunes. Anyway -- check out the trailer here!

Going Down in La-La Land

I've decided to self-distribute my latest film Going Down in LA-LA Land in theaters. The plan is to open it in NYC mid or end of March and hopefully a bunch of more cities after than (depending on how the New York run goes). I'm heading over to speak to a theater manager in Chelsea right now actually about booking the film. Wish me luck! 

BTW, check out the trailer and more info about the film here: www.embrem.com/lalaland. Miguel Blanco who made this site for me also made that website. And he made the poster art work for the film. 

What do you think? Is it slutty or is it sexy and provocative?  We were going for sexy and provocative...
