Melissa McCarthy is masterful in the captivating account — based on a true story — of Lee Israel, a best-selling celebrity biographer in the 1970s and ’80s. When Lee (McCarthy) comes to the realization that she’s no longer en vogue, she spins her art form into a perilous web of lies, deceit and outright crime to get back on top.

Hodnotenia a recenzie

I love how she can transform herself into any character, and yes she really was mean and hateful, but the girl has talent galore. also, not my favorite, but love to see what she'll come up with next!!!! I'm a huge Melissa McCarthy fan.

I have a theory about Melissa McCarthy. When she has someone quick (e.g. Sandra Bullock or the cast of Bridesmaids) with whom to ad lib, she's brilliant. The Heat and Bridesmaids were both fantastic, surprising, and witty. But I sat through Tammy and even St. Vincent, and 90% of things fell apart. Can You Ever Forgive Me? has a thin (but solid) antagonist role. Actually, maybe the true antagonists, the ones who push the protagonist to change, are the writers she forges. At any rate, to get to the point: In this drama, it's McCarthy's show. McCarthy and the McCarthy "who writers better than Dorothy Parker." And, in this serious, emotionally difficult drama, she shines.

I'm a Melissa McCarthy fan for life. And I respect how she does not make her weight her act. like the English white girl Reagan?And Melissa is just effing brilliant.And I hope to always see her in dramas and comedy. she is the only reason I watched that chic flik brides maid. she made me cry,in the scene where she's telling C.Wig on the couch to STOP feeling sorry for herself.I chose 1film from my wishlist.she beat boheimean raposdy&the girl in the spider web&A star is born.
