Confessions of a Dangerous Mind
Game show television producer Chuck Barris (Sam Rockwell) is at the height of his career. His creation, ``The Dating Game,'' is one of the network's top shows and he has just been given the post of hosting his latest brainchild, ``The Gong Show.'' But what the public and industry big-wigs are unaware of is that Chuck Barris, game show pioneer, is also a covert assassin. He works for the C.I.A. and claims to have killed 33 people.

If "The Gong Show" host/creator Chuck Barris hadn't claimed to have been a CIA assassin in his spare time, no one would have bothered making a movie about him. Whether Barris was just telling tall tales in his 1982 autobiography "Confessions of a Dangerous Mind" is almost beside the point. Without self-invention, there would be no Hollywood, so why shoot down a good yarn?
