Leave your thoughts about Beltracchi: The Art of Forgery.
| Monsters and CriticsRon WilkinsonFocused on art forgery, this flabbergasting story expands into a full scale expose of the modern confidence game and why, after all these years, it still works. |
| New York TimesBen KenigsbergBeltracchi: The Art of Forgery is a case in which a great documentary topic hasn’t yielded a great documentary. |
| South China Morning PostJames MarshThe film is equally frightening ... in exposing just how much collectors are at the mercy of so-called experts, while raising valid questions about the true nature and value of art. |
| Los Angeles TimesRobert AbeleThe details are mesmerizing as is the rule-breaking psychology behind it. |
| Hollywood ReporterJohn DeForeA highly enjoyable look at a career spent duping the art world. |
| RogerEbert.comSusan WloszczynaThere is one highly genuine scene that feels as if it could be an outtake from “The Grand Budapest Hotel“ that nicely underlines Birkenstock’s theme of the ephemeral nature of art when it comes authenticity and originality. |
| User ReviewPaul Bthe movie glamorizes a very dishonest and corrupt man and helps him to profit from his bad deeds. what is shocking is how light his punishments have been. |
