From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia J. Adam Larose, who uses the professional name J. LaRose, is an American actor. He has worked with Saw director, Darren Lynn Bousman, on five projects: Identity Lost, Butterfly Dreams, Saw III, Repo! The Genetic Opera, and Fear Itself episode "New Year's Day"). Two of which were Bousman's first short films, Repo! was a short directed by Bousman to promote a feature film to Lionsgate. It successfully did and after Saw IV, Bousman directed a full-length feature film version of Repo! The Genetic Opera, in which Larose played the Vanity and Vein reporter who interviews Rotti Largo about Zydrate addiction. Larose played the lead in each - Butterfly Dreams and Identity Lost. However, he made his Hollywood film debut in a much smaller role as a helpless victim of Jigsaw, known as Troy in Saw III. A new commentary track with Darren Lynn Bousman and Larose is included on the Director's Cut DVD of Saw III. Description above from the Wikipedia article J.

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
