Quotes
Harry Donovan:
I'm not a shoe-maker, and I don't work for slobs off the street. I work with people that I know. You can leave now.
Alastair Davies:
It's a circular problem.
Harry Donovan:
Now, do I have to knock your ass down the stairs?
Alastair Davies:
No, no. Gentlemen. Um, we'll be staying at the Carlyle until, uh, Sunday. Think it over.
Harry Donovan:
Watch your fingers.

Yes, the production values of INCOGNITO (especially the gauzy photography) smack of "B" Level production, this film shines for a few reasons, most notably the peek into the world of Art, Art History and Art Forgery. Anyone who considers themselves curious about both Rembrandt, his place in the art world, and the art world's place in history will enjoy this movie. The performances are excellent, and it deserved better than Direct to Video.
