Longo, who was using Mike Finkel\u2019s name while on the run (he admires the guy\u2019s writing), is accused of murdering his entire family\u2014wife and three children\u2014at least one of whom had been squeezed with favorite toys into a small valise and dumped into the river.\u00a0 When caught by the authorities, however, he denies guilt, which presents the possibility of a great article or, a short time later, a book by the real Mike Finkel (Jonah Hill)\u2014who had been fired by the New York Times for deliberately combining a story involving five Africans exploited and beaten as slaves into a single person.\u00a0 (From where I\u2019m sitting, the Times had gone overboard in dismissing a guy who produced ten magazine cover stories for the Gray Lady, this last one adding extra drama by pretending that the five subjects are actually one.\u00a0 It\u2019s not as though he sat in his living room, making up a tale of traveling to a dangerous part of the continent, as did one other New York Times reporter, Jason Blair, who plagiarized and fabricated his reportage.)<\/p>\n<p>Having manipulated the truth, Mike is all too trusting when he visits Chris Longo in jail, becoming convinced that the accused killer may be innocent\u2014perhaps covering for the real killer or maybe guilty at most of manslaughter.\u00a0 And given Chris\u2019s steadfast calm demeanor, gentle brown eyes, and reputation as an exemplary prisoner, who could have seen through a barrage of lies?<\/p>\n<p>Philosophically, journalist Mike Finkel believes he can learn something about himself from the man who stole his identity, a stretch at best, but one who has validity principally as the meeting of two people who live parts of their lives by manipulating others, or, as Mike\u2019s significant other, Jill (Felicity Jones) would label Chris, a model of narcissism.<\/p>\n<p>In photographing the two principals, Masanobu Takayangi relies strongly on close-ups, revealing little tics like fidgeting hands.\u00a0 Occasionally director Goold flashes back to the crime scene, but those attempts are a more-or-less irrelevant part of the story.\u00a0 This is no \u201cLaw and Order\u201d or \u201cNCIS,\u201d but a psychological study of two people who share significant personality traits just as, at one time, they share the same name and profession.<\/p>\n<p>With both actors performing against type\u2014Jonah Hill in particular is known for melodramatic roles in \u201cThe Wolf of Wall Street,\u201d about a financial tycoon, and \u201cMoneyball,\u201d about the use of technology in baseball\u2014\u201cTrue Story\u201d is a gripping, fascinating film, a psychological thriller without the melodrama we associate with highly commercial works.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Rated R.\u00a0 104 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Story \u2013 B+<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Acting \u2013 A-<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Technical \u2013 B+<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Overall \u2013 A-<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ts.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ts.jpg\" alt=\"ts\" width=\"600\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-151555\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ts.jpg 620w, https:\/\/www.shockya.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/ts-300x174.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TRUE STORY Fox Searchlight\/ Regency Enterprises Reviewed by: Harvey Karten for Shockya.
