| 04.19.07 | Internet | the story of Clifford Irving, the guy who wrote a book on a famous art faker then faked a Howard Hughes biography himself. I generally hate Richard Gere so this movie kinda works in that while he's lying and smirking his way to fame and fortune, I know he'll be found out in the end and everyone will hate him as much as I do. Even with Alfred Molina though, I still prefer Orsen Welles' F for Fake (which deals with the artist and contains interview footage with Irving) and the accompanying doc on Irving that Criterion put on their DVD. oh well. |
