Lennon assassination film to wink at Perdomo role
- See Was Lennon's real assassin Jose Perdomo?
Sean seems more attracted to the gritty underbelly of the BEATLES story. He pointed out nine years ago that "Anybody who thinks that Mark Chapman was just some crazy guy who killed my dad for his personal interests is insane, I think, or very naive." Earlier this year, he was hanging out with starlet Lindsay Lohan during the filming of an upcoming film about Chapman. And his influence may account for what we see on screen, as per this report from FoxNews, January 30, 2006:
"The basic story of "Chapter 27" casts Jared Leto as the odious Mark David Chapman and Lindsay Lohan as a minor character named Jude. It follows Chapman's activities leading up to the killing, painting him as a jolly fan who is obsessed with "The Catcher in the Rye."
[...]
Production of "Chapter 27" is the most controversial thing happening on the New York film scene right now. Over the weekend, the company continued to film and make a huge scene, unabated, in front of the Dakota apartment house, where Lennon was murdered by Chapman and where his widow, Yoko Ono, still lives.
[...]
The worst scene of all is included: a graphic rendering of Lennon's assassination in the doorway of the Dakota. It includes an odd twist on what is considered the conventional story: distraught doorman Jose Perdomo is recorded in history as telling Chapman right after the shooting, "Leave! Get out of here!"
When Chapman doesn't respond, Perdomo shouts: "Do you know what you've done?"
But in Schaeffer's script, Perdomo's quote is different: "Get out of here. Just go. Before anyone sees you."
Schaefer, it seems, is throwing a bone to the conspiracy theorists who like to think that Perdomo, a Cuban exile, killed Lennon as part of some plot.
