Art and Craft

For over 30 years, Mississippi painter Mark Landis used his remarkable forgery skills to dupe institutions nationwide into accepting hundreds of his donated "originals." His life history, the processes of his philanthropic (and therefore unprosecuted) con, and the perspectives of Matthew Leininger, the museum registrar who found him out and made him a Javert-esque object of pursuit, are captivatingly chronicled in this documentary. 89 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English Dolby Digital stereo.
