''Ewan's portrayal of me is just magnificent. He has my mannerisms, my voice down. Just the fact that he came to Arkansas and spent time with me, studied me, I was just so impressed. I can't tell him enough how honored and flattered I am - his portrayal of me is right on.... Just the fact that people will see me as one of Steve's victims as well. I've watched it with really close friends of mine and family members who don't know the extent of what that man put me through.''

Phillip Morris, the title subject of a new movie starring Ewan McGregor and Jim Carrey. The long-awaited US release of the film is this Friday. It follows the relationship of Morris and a convicted con man, Steven Russell. (San Francisco Chronicle)
