Chapter 27
Long Synopsis

It is a date with destiny that will forever be etched on the tragic history of music. On December 8, 1980, loner Mark Chapman shot John Lennon five times outside The Dakota, the New York apartment Lennon shared with wife Yoko Ono and son Sean.
Why did he do it? What compelled this apparently normal married man to assassinate a music legend and icon of the sixties peace and love movement?
In the weekend leading up to the inevitable tragedy, Chapman’s deteriorating mental state succumbs to exaggerated fantasies about his own mundane life and his increasingly strange behaviour alienates fans assembled outside The Dakota.
But it is his attachment to the classic novel “The Catcher in the Rye” that finally causes him to lose his grip on reality and carry out the infamous murder that continues to shock the world.

Short Synopsis

New York City. December 1980. Mark Chapman arrives in New York with the intent to kill John Lennon. A depressed and unstable soul, Chapman is torn between his love and awe for John Lennon’s persona and his desire to kill Lennon in order to gain notoriety for himself. The story portrays Chapman’s mental collapse, which is played out through his obsession with JD Salinger’s classic novel ‘The Catcher in the Rye’, as Chapman’s demons win over, and persuade him to shoot Lennon on the steps of Lennon’s apartment building, The Dakota.

Chapter 27

Director’s Note

The music of John Lennon and the writing of J.D. Salinger have always had 
a powerful effect on me. They both relate complexities like the pain of love or the confusion of growing up with such openness and accuracy that I  recognize it in myself and feel less alone. They were, and still are, close friends and guides. I imagine I am not the only one. I could never understand how someone who listened to these same songs and read these same books would also want to kill. This film is about that person.

Known for his intense and intelligent performances, Jared Leto’s big screen presence was established in his compelling portrayal of a delusional heroin addict in Darren Aronofsky’s dark drama Requiem for a Dream, starring opposite Jennifer Connelly and Ellen Burstyn.

Last seen in Andrew Niccol’s Lord of War opposite Nicholas Cage and Ethan Hawke, Leto recently wrapped production on Jarrett Schaefer’s Chapter 27, where he stars as Mark David Chapman, the man who murdered John Lennon. He also stars in the romantic thriller Lonely Hearts alongside Salma Hayek for director Todd Robinson.
Additional credits include Oliver Stone’s classic epic, Alexander, with Colin Farrell, Anthony Hopkins, Angelina Jolie and Val Kilmer; David Fincher’s Panic Room starring with Jodie Foster and Forrest Whitaker; Girl Interrupted opposite Winona Ryder, Angelina Jolie and Brittany Murphy; Fight Club co-starring Ed Norton and Brad Pitt; Terrence Malick’s ensemble World War II action-drama, The Thin Red Line; and Prefontaine – a docudrama that chronicles the tragic life of Steve Prefontaine, an Olympic hopeful in long-distance running. He starred opposite Ed O’Neill in this acclaimed film.

Leto’s television credits include his notorious role as ‘Jordan Catalano,’ the high school heartthrob, in the critically acclaimed realistic teen drama series, My So Called Life.

LINDSAY LOHAN

Green-eyed, auburn-haired Lindsay Lohan burst onto the scene playing twins in Nancy Meyers’s Parent Trap co-starring Dennis Quaid and Natasha Richardson.

This past year, Lindsay has been hitting the Indy-circuit starting with a performance in Robert Altman’s A Prairie Home Companion, in which she played Meryl Streep’s troubled daughter. Lindsay also recently completed Chapter 27, opposite Jared Leto and can currently be seen in Emilio Estevez’s Bobby; a film that centers around the assassination of U.S. Senator Robert F. Kennedy.
For her performance in Bobby, Lindsay won the “Hollywood Breakthrough Actress” award at the Hollywood Film Festival in October of 2006.
