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.

Compelling story about a complicated person, which sets the viewer on a very conflicted emotional journey feeling both pity and disgust for the subject and her actions. It feels strange seeing McCarthy in such a serious role, but she portrayed Lee Israel in such a convincing manner.

Very good movie. Everythings is good in this movie. Well played, good scenario, the way they bring us in her reality. The way they show us. Even a stong caracter can fall down... and can be fragile. And how it's hard to accept to be vulnerable. Interesting story.

I certainly wouldn't classify this as a comedy. It was sad and tragic. If I hadn't been expecting a comedy, I'm sure I would have enjoyed it more.
