Trickery. Deceit. Magic. lnF for Fake, a free-form sort-of documentary by Orson WeIles, the Iegendary fiImmaker (and self-described charIatan) gIeefuIIy reengages with the central preoccupation of his career: the tenuous lines between iIlusion and truth, art and lies. Beginning with portraits of the worId - renowned art forger Elmyr de Hory and his equaIly devious biographer, CIifford Irving, WeIIes embarks on a dizzying journey that simuItaneously exposes and revels in fakery and fakers of alI stripes - not the least of whom is Welles himseIf. Charming and inventive, F for Fake is an inspired prank and a cIever examination of the essentiaI duplicity of cinema. |
