My
name is K. Clarke.
I'm into writing entertainment movie reviews as well as
screenplays.
I'm also an independent filmmaker.
Some of my favorite films include Star Wars a classic film
that's bigger than life; it's influential in society and has become
an icon of pop culture.
Indiana Jones the greatest action film of all time.
JFK- Oliver Stone's powerful account of USA governmental
corruption that ruined America's innocence.
Do the Right Thing-Spike Lee's masterpiece details racial
tensions was far ahead of it's time with realism and human
interaction.
Psycho-Hitchcock's greatest achievement was the first to
explore schizophrenia and paranoia realistically. It has great
music, suspense and acting.
Some other great films on my list are Unfogiven, The Third Man,
Dark City, 2001, E.T., Pulp Fiction,Platoon, and Vertigo.
I'm a big film buff and a fan of great directors and am influenced
by Hitchcock( the greatest), Spielberg, Oliver Stone,
Orson Welles, Spike Lee,Scorsese, Kurosawa, Truffaut, Godard,
Antonioni, Kubrick, Lang, Hawks, Eastwood, Carol Reed, Capra, Billy
Wilder, Bergman, Fellini, Sirk, Bresson, Coppola, Ford, Huston,
etc.
Â
My
Favorite Musicians are Jay-Z, Public Enemy, Kanye West and
Michael Jackson to Nirvana, Korn, the Police, Duran Duran
and the Beatles.
I've
always been a Comic Book fan, I'm happy that some of my
favorites have been turned into movies.
Some of my favorites are the X-men, Wolverine (in
production), The Punisher, Daredevil, 300, and my favorite-Sin
City by Frank Miller, who also wrote and drew the 300 comic.
Watchmen by Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons is the greatest
comic series ever and the movie will be out in 2009.
Â
The
most influential comic book creator is writer-artist Jack
Kirby (not Stan Lee). Kirby actually created a lot of the most
important characters like Spider-Man, X-Men, Captain America,
Fantastic Four, Black Panther, Silver Surfer and the Hulk,
among others. Years ago artists were not allowed to get both writer
and artist credit. A lot of the stories Lee is credited for, Kirby
actually wrote the plots for and developed. Most of the greatest
artists and writers in the industry like Frank Miller, Alan
Moore, John Byrne, Jim Starlin,Jim Lee maybe would not be
around if not for Kirby's originality and genius. Kirby is the
Hitchcock of comics.
Â
I like
Sports my favorite is Football.
Hopefully the writer's strike will be over soon so I can see my
favorite TV shows like 24 (the best), Prison Break,
Heroes, House, and Pushing Daises.
I have various artistic interests and I would like to network with
others out there who would like me to write movie reviews or other
entertainment news and also may want to collaborate on a film I
would direct.
