    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      This was supposed to be the feature directorial debut of actor Peter Weller, but he was replaced by John Badham about two weeks into filming, because of his criticism of producer James G. Robinson and the budget. He said, "Their idea of a budget is going to a hot dog stand."
    • Goofs
      Harry Donovan seems to have been testifying (and trying to paint a van Rijn) during the prosecution's case. After he failed to complete the painting ("Only a Rembrandt can paint a Rembrandt") the prosecution goes back to calling other witnesses.

      There is an order of proof. In the English (and U.S.) trial system the prosecution goes first. The defense then goes and has to decide whether to call the defendant (accused) during its part of the case.
    • Quotes

      Harry Donovan: When are you gonna realize that all of this art crap is a fraud? Otherwise, how could the same picture be worth $10 million or zip based on, what, a signature? Rembrandt is priceless. Donovan is worthless. That's not art. That's autographs.

    It's Different, But Like The Fake Painting You Know It Could Be Better
    Although sometimes way too slow-moving and not as involving as it should have been, this film was almost a "keeper" in my collection.

    The story was different, and I liked it, about an artist producing a fake Rembrandt. Jason Patric, an interesting and underrated actor, played the role on the con 'artist,' so to speak. Appealing-looking Irene Jacob, played the female lead. She was likable, unlike Patric's character.

    There are some interesting moments in this film, particularly for those who love art. There also are a few nice shots of Jacob that should please most male viewers. Overall, nothing that super but decent and worth a rental. It's different, I'll say that.....but don't expect a lot.
