Scott: How and when did you become interested in movies? James DiLapo: It’s something that’s been a part of my life since I was a little kid. ... When I was growing up, my dad really gave me a film school education. ... I remember from a young age watching Dog Day Afternoon with him. Serpico, Apocalypse Now, Bonnie and Clyde. That made me laugh. Why? Because I can imagine that Q&A taking place with a prison inmate - "So, how and when did you become interested in a life of crime?" "It’s something that’s been a part of my life since I was a little kid. When I was growing up, my dad really gave me an education. I remember from a young age watching Dog Day Afternoon with him. Serpico, Apocalypse Now, Bonnie and Clyde."

"I didn’t have time to wait on picking an agent because the Mayan Apocalypse was coming." Pretty sure I would've given in with that logic. They took Carpe Diem to a whole 'nother level.

Ha! Two paths, right. One filmmaking. The other crime. Fortunately James chose the right one!
