ideofact: July 2008 Archives:: [Independent candidate James B.] Weaver's pledge in Omaha injected an element of drama into what was shaping up as a tedious rerun of the campaign of 1888. http://www.ideofact.com/archives/2008_07.htmlHOME | I am trying to find the name of the person who fits the descriptions below:
Fellow who impersonated a prince and had his story told in an
independent film that receive positive critical notice within the past
few years. The film may have appeared at Sundance.
Could you be thinking about "Con Man"?
This film played the film festival circuit a couple years ago and
received positive critical notice. However, the impersonator's scam
didn't involve being a prince, but rather a "Princeton" student.
Could this be what you want?

Could it be 'AKA'?
'AKA' is a film about a British teen who passed himself off as an aristocrat.
It played the "independent film" circuit in the U.S. in December 2003.
