If
you haven’t a decent arts cinema nearby, you’ll have missed The
Imposter earlier this year, but you should definitely, most
definitely, catch it on DVD.
13
year old Nicholas’ family were devastated when their blonde haired,
blue-eyed boy went missing from his Texas home in 1993, so when the
authorities call them out of the blue several years later to say they
have found him in Spain, the family are understandably ecstatic, the
only issue being, ‘Nicholas’ now has a French accent, brown hair
and eyes and can’t seem to remember anything about his childhood.
This
is a personal docu-drama of one family’s stranger than fiction
missing persons case, and right up until the final credits role,
revealing those last few killer bits of information, you’ll flip
back and forth between siding with the family or Frédéric Bourdin,
the man they now believe to be Nicholas.
