Description:Trickery. Deceit. Magic. In F FOR FAKE, a free-form documentary by Orson Welles (Citizen Kane), the legendary filmmaker (and self-described charlatan) gleefully reengages with the central preoccupation of his career: The tenuous line between illusion and truth, art and lies. Beginning with portraits of the world-renowned art forger Elmyr de Hory and his equally devious biographer, Clifford Irving, Welles embarks on a dizzying journey that simultaneously exposes and revels in fakery and fakers of all stripes - not the least of whom is Welles himself. Charming and inventive, F for Fake is an inspired prank and a clever examination of the essential duplicity of cinema.
"F For Fake" on Blu-Ray, released by Criterion Collection (Direct), is a mesmerizing exploration of truth and illusion directed by the legendary Orson Welles. This 1973 film blurs the lines between documentary and fiction, delving into art forgery, deception, and storytelling itself. The Criterion Collection is renowned for its meticulous restorations and insightful supplements that celebrate cinematic artistry. Orson Welles?acclaimed director of "Citizen Kane," "Touch of Evil," and "The Magnificent Ambersons"?stars alongside Oja Kodar, his muse and collaborator known for her avant-garde performances. Also featured are Elmyr de Hory, one of history?s most notorious art forgers; Clifford Irving, infamous author behind the Howard Hughes hoax; and Joseph Cotten ("The Third Man," "Shadow of a Doubt"), a frequent Welles collaborator celebrated for his versatile acting career. This edition offers an essential deep dive into both cinema history and the enigmatic genius of its creators.
