Auggie Rose, also known as Beyond Suspicion, is a 2001 drama film starring Jeff Goldblum and Anne Heche. It was originally shown on Cinemax and then released on video with the title Beyond Suspicion before a limited theatrical release in San Francisco and Los Angeles, California.
Insurance salesman John Nolan witnesses the fatal shooting of Auggie Rose, an ex-convict that Nolan had never met before. Feeling responsible, Nolan finds out everything he can about Auggie Rose and discovers that he had a pen pal named Lucy who is coming to meet him for the first time, unaware of Auggie's death. When he goes to meet her, he pretends to be Auggie, lives in his apartment, and starts a relationship with Lucy.
Originally William H. Macy was going to play John C. Nolan, but he dropped out because of scheduling conflicts and was replaced by Jeff Goldblum less than two weeks before shooting started.
