       Stephen Glass (Christensen) is a young superstar amongst journalists, writing for all the biggest US magazines. He’s well-liked, kind, amiable.

       And then it’s discovered that he’s fabricated his latest major piece. Maybe many of his major pieces.

       It’s dramatic, based on true events and very well acted.
