What critics compared The Great Impostor to
Try Tony Curtis in The Great Impostor (1961), also based on a true story about a conniver named after his father.
The story is very close to the 1961 Robert Mulligan movie "The Great Impostor," which starred Tony Curtis as Ferdinand Waldo Demara, a real-life chameleon-crook who successfully posed as -- among many other things -- a surgeon, a naval officer, a Trappist monk and even a prison warden.
