I Love You Phillip Morris opens today, starring Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor. It is based on Steve McVicker’s book (Miramax, ISBN 978-0786869039). PW’s review said, “Steven Russell, the subject of this true crime story, is a rare individual, a genius who has run afoul of the law, a prodigious intellect endowed with boundless energy, audacity and guile…. Journalist McVicker has written an unexceptional book about this exceptional man, but Russell's charisma--shining through lackluster prose--is what makes this offbeat biography a success.”
