“Long Island native and first time filmmaker, Dennis Lynch, delivers a hilarious and heartfelt documentary about dealing with his own midlife crisis. In an attempt to escape a 40th birthday, a struggling business, a pregnant wife, and a legal battle with his dying grandfather, Lynch heads out to the Hamptons to live the life he’s only read about in magazines. King of the Hamptons, which was the first film to sell-out twice at the Hamptons International Film Festival 2010, is a real-time account of how Lynch’s Hamptons adventure becomes a life-defining experience as he soon discovers that wild parties, pretty women, and living amid the rich and famous can’t help him escape the real midlife issues he’s facing.” ~ L.I.
