the rembrandt is bogus, passed off by talented art forger harry donovan as the work of the master. museum experts can't tell it's a phony, nor can the clamoring collectors who are willing to pay a bundle for it. harry hoped to share a hefty piece of that bundle. instead, he's one the run across europa, set up for a murder he did not commit.
jason patric (sleepers, rush) plays harry, a skilled but struggling artist whose willingness to take on one last, shady deal frames him tighter than any portrait. john badham (saturday night fever, wargames) directs this intrigue-filled tale from a filmmaking palette whose colors include new york, amsterdam, coastal spain, london and the english countryside. co-starring irène jacob (u.s. marshals) and veterans rod steiger and ian richardson, incognito fills its canvas with suspense, pursuit and the shadowy working of international art forgery. accept no substitutes.
