Notes
This movie is based on a true story -- If I did not know this, I would have said it is too fantastical a plot to be believable --Steven Russell (Carrey), a gay man who just can't stop conning his way through life, and Philip Morris (McGregor) with whom he falls in love while in prison -- The absurdity of it all make for a very entertaining film, with fine performances from both Carrey and McGregor.
