John Carpenter’s Life

My ACTUAL name Truly is John K. Carpenter (you now realize why the K. was imperative to include!) I am a Indie film maker in New York having two films that I have already produced, directed, written & starred in theatrically shown (youtube.com/smellinglikearose) will show all of you a sample of my out put thus far! I am also a much known film historian muchly due to MY TREMENDOUS LOVE OF THE FILMS OF THE 20s & 30s. Since 2004 I have hosted a Classic Film Program and Lecture series featuring 16mm film prints (presently totaling over 3,000) that I have collected, preserved & restored. The 20s & 30s Comedian CHARLEY CHASE has been my childhood inspiration to go into film production and in a few months LATE TO LUNCH my 2002 Indie theatrical film will be marketed on DVD by Alpha Home Entertainment for worldwide distribution! It is a totally authentic and accurate recreation of a typical silent comedy of the late 20s as if it was actually shot at that time; My Art is that I recall to my productions the feel of that sophisticated era even screwball comedy in style, character, dialogue, premise and sensibilities. I feel no matter the genre there should always be intelligence and class!. I have won one award & am known as the Massapequa Park Movie Man John Carpenter. And That’s All Folks!
