A very smart movie, which deals with several very interesting subjects. John Malkovitch is really incredible in his role.
The movie points out the craziness of A. Conway. It especially points out the vanity of the "victims", so much so that sometimes, you feel rather sympathetic towards the con himself. Each of his victims finds in his/her meeting with "Stanley Kubrick" something that makes him/her feel good about themselves or something that will profit him/her. Very often, the only thing he gets out of all this is a lot of drink and money.
The different references to actual Kubrick films are rather intelligent.
Honestly, the first scene is really a kick.
A film that is to be seen by any Kubrick fan.
