Welcome
Welcome to the In Bruges Fansite! I've been keeping up the In Bruges Blog for a good two months now and decided it was time for a website. Here you can find everything I've posted on the blog archived (easier to look up), basic information about the film, useful links and you can be listed as a fan.
Support
If you liked the film, if you loved the film, if you're looking foreward to the film, if you think Martin McDonagh is a genius, if you're a big fan of Brendan Gleeson, if you adore Ralph Fiennes, if you're crazy about Colin Farrell, if you want to show support; join the f*cking fanlisting. Focus Features and other distributors are aware of this fansite, so every name makes a statement!
The Blog
Our location on Vox is inbrugesblog.vox.com - easy as pie. The blog is updated as completely as possible, as often as possible. The blog is connected to Colin Farrell Fansite and Ralph Fiennes Corner. Connecting the fans, one might say. Galleries and clips can be found most completely collected on the blog itself.

frequently asked questions
Are you in any way affiliated with Focus Features?
I've been asked that question a couple of times and to this day it is a mystery to me what people want to hear when they ask this. I do not work for Focus Features. I'm a fan, doing this for other fans.
Have you met Colin Farrell / Ralph Fiennes / Brendan Gleeson /Martin McDonagh?
I've met Colin Farrell and Brendan Gleeson, on the set of In Bruges. I met Colin when he was kind enough to make time for a chat and a picture. He's a great, generous guy. I will not stand a bad word about him. I met Brendan Gleeson because I was on set and he looked bored, and I had no idea who he was so I waved at him and he came over. Very briefly. I met Ralph Fiennes briefly in November 2008 at the stage door, he was performing "Oedipus" for the national theatre. He's a very nice guy. I have never met Martin McDonagh.
Can you tell me something about the release of a film other than "In Bruges"?
I was also pretty surprised by this question, but no matter! If it is a film with Colin Farrell, Ralph Fiennes or Brendan Gleeson you have a question about, there is a chance I can answer your question - I'll dig some for you. But unfortunately I am not an oracle, and In Bruges is my main focus.
Can you tell me where I can see plays written by Martin McDonagh?
No, I really can't. I'm not an oracle for the theater, either. You will have to try and google it. I've only been to the theater twice; Macbeth by the Royal Shakespeare Company and Oedipus with Ralph Fiennes as the lead. I'm not very informed on the theatre world.
Why won't they widen the US release?
I haven't heard any official explanation for it, and I don't think I ever will. The film industry seems to be all about closed doors. My best guess is that the writer's strike has influenced the industry and its income to such an extent, that the production companies are now trying to make more money off of the big budget and hit productions rather than the smaller and more arthouse productions. In Bruges, unfortunately, comes second to films like Atonement and 10,000 BC.
I'm in Europe/Australia/South America, when will the film be released here if ever?
All the theatre releases have come and gone. If you haven't had a chance to see the film because of your country of residence, you can order the dvd now through sites such as Amazon.Com.
Can you download the torrent?
That is a useless question in so many ways. If the world of torrents is anything like my flatmate claims it to be - I'm sure it's out there. Will I help you find it? Hell no. Do I look like someone who wants the film to miss out on profits? If you are in a country where the film won't be released - wait until the DVD comes out and I'm sure you can find a way, perhaps with my help. Legally.
Will there be any more events/premieres?
Well, obviously the promotion of the film is past. If you want to take a chance, keep an eye on the award shows that are coming up. There's the November 2008 British Independent Film Awards in London, and I'm sure there'll be more. This site will keep you posted as much as possible.
OMG OMG OMG WILL COLLIN FEREL MARRY MEEE?
No.
You have a picture up that is from my website / can I use a picture from your website?
If I have used your material without permission I am sorry, I tried to watch myself while copying and pasting. If you want me to add your name to the image and link you in the link section let me know, if you want me to take it down that's fine, too. Just remember this website is in no way competitive; it is non-profit and it cooperates with other fansites rather than competes with them because it is the only In Bruges fansite around.
If you want to take images from this site, send me a message. I won't shoot you for just doing it, but it might actually be useful to let me know. You might not be fanlisted yet or you might have a blog post or site we can link to.
