ABC has a documentary about the art fraudster Inigo Philbrick, and it's beautifully pieced together with snippets of interviews from the main characters (and there's plenty of Main Characters). Highly entertaining. Like other docos about the high dollar art dealing world it pulls back the curtain on some really shifty business, and there's none shifter than Inigo's.

It may well have been an attempt by the fraudster and his girlfriend to soften his image. But I reckon you'd have to not be paying attention for that to work. The interview cuts are perfect, playing one person's perspective against another's.

If you have an interest in true fraud stories, it's well worth the time.
