Confessions of a Dangerous Mind is Chuck Barris's 1984 "unauthorized autobiography," claiming he led a double life as a CIA assassin while creating and hosting hit TV shows like The Dating Game and The Gong Show. The book details his alleged missions killing enemies of the state, juxtaposed with his flamboyant TV career, and was adapted into a 2002 film directed by and starring Sam Rockwell.
