Who is Clark Rockefeller...And Why Is He Doing Such Terrible Things? ***
14 March 2010
Warning: Spoilers
Remember Who is Harry Kellerman, And Why is He Saying Those Terrible Things About Me? How about Clark Kent, the mystery guy from Superman?

Clark Rockefeller immediately assumes our interest as we begin to think of what this guy is all about. In other words, why and how does he tick?

For sure, he is a mystery man who has assumed an identity linking him to one of the most famous families.

The film is interestingly done, but true to life, it's really hard to conceive that a woman could be taken in like this. Red flags should immediately come up with no identification, no social security card, no interaction with the Rockefeller family, no picture taking and last but certainly not least, a Rockefeller bouncing checks! His wife may have had an MBA from Harvard but she definitely held a doctorate of life stupidity.

The performances are good, especially that of Eric McCormick as the alias Clark. He certainly assumed a tremendous number of identities in his unusual life. Murder and mayhem certainly would never be anticipated.

I noticed in the film how quickly his life seemed to unravel. Quickly, despite the fact that his wife was duped for 12 years. This may be a flaw in the film, but it's nicely handled, thanks to the flashback technique.
