CGiii Comment

Inconsequential fluff...

A young journalist makes up his stories and gets fired...that's all there is to it.

Within all this fact/fiction...he found himself with a man's tongue down his throat.

Fact or fiction?

Who cares?!?

The(ir) Blurb...

This film tells the true story of fraudulent Washington, D.C. journalist Stephen Glass (Christensen), who rose to meteoric heights as a young writer in his 20s, becoming a staff writer at "The New Republic" for three years (1995-1998), where 27 of his 41 published stories were either partially or completely made up. Looking for a short cut to fame, Glass concocted sources, quotes and even entire stories, but his deception did not go unnoticed forever, and eventually, his world came crumbling down...
