The story

Virgil Oldman (Geoffrey Rush) is an esteemed but eccentric managing director of a preeminent auction house. A lifelong bachelor who avoids physical contact and refuses to use a mobile phone, he wears gloves at all times except when handling artwork. Behind his impeccable professional reputation, Virgil secretly operates a long-running scam: with the help of his friend Billy Whistler (Donald Sutherland), he acquires priceless female portraits at auction by having them misattributed to lesser artists, then buys them cheaply through Billy acting as a shill.
