Why It’s A Good Option for Will Smith Fans: Six Degrees of Separation is one of Smith’s first movies, and it blends his comedic and dramatic flare.
Will Smith plays Paul, a young con-artist who finds wealthy families and impresses them with his lies about being the son of Sidney Poitier.
The movie is based on a play of the same name, so the movie very much has a theatrical feel.
Six Degrees of Separation takes place at a dinner party where a couple, Quisa (Stockard Channing) and Flan (Donald Sutherland), recount their encounter with Paul.
