Confessions of a fantasist...
Rockwell's Barris is a vile little man with no redeeming features - apart from his money.
Taken with a bowlful of salt, Clooney has managed to produce a very entertaining film from a very dubious memoir...a work of an overly creative imagination!

Television made him famous, but his biggest hits happened off screen. "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" is the story of a legendary showman's double life - television producer by day, CIA assassin by night. At the height of his TV career, Chuck Barris was recruited by the CIA and trained to become a covert operative. Or so Barris said.
