About

 

James Faracci is an actor and director, known for the CARLO movie.

James Faracci’s interview : “It took me several years to get the movie up and running. I am friends with Arnold Schwarzenegger, we
went to college together. I wrote the script CARLO for myself, however, I was open to the idea of having
Arnold star in it. I would have changed the name of the main character from Carlo Saviano to Karl Kruger.
And if he agreed to make the film, I would produce and direct it.

I dropped the script off at his office and a couple of months later, his agent called me and said, “we like
what you wrote, we want you to sign a release.” Shortly thereafter, Arnold had some personal problems
that he had to address immediately. I knew Arnold had a lot to contend with, so I took my script
to Rafael Primorac. Rafael produced films for Jean Claude Van Dame, Wesley Snipes, and Steven Segal.
He liked my script, CARLO and made arrangements for me to shoot my film at Fox Studio in Baja California.
(Where they shot The Titanic.)

We filmed CARLO in 15 Days working 16 hours per day.”
