Incognito (1997): Forging a Rembrandt on Film

     Directed by John Badham, Incognito (1998) is a much better film than it is often given credit for. Relegated to direct DVD release in most markets, the film is both exciting and intriguing. Of particular note are the highly detailed scenes depicting the steps an art forger takes in reproducing a "Rembrandt" from start to finish. The artists who created the drawings and paintings for the film did an admirable job. The cast is good as well, including Jason Patric, Rod Steiger, Irene Jacob and Ian Holm.
