Chameleon Street
I Think, Therefore I Scam.
Directed by Wendell B. Harris Jr.
Produced by Gathsemane 84, Prismatic Images
A darkly comic, satirical biographical film about a con artist's serial reinventions, blending social critique with the absurdist humor of a man who escapes reality through impersonation.
William Douglas Street is bored with his life. Working for his father is getting to him, his wife wants more money, and he's had enough. His solution is to re-invent himself. He becomes a chameleon, taking on whatever role suits the situation. From reporter to doctor to lawyer, he impersonates anyone he feels a need to be and he can earn money being.
