Can You Ever Forgive Me?

Melissa McCarthy and Richard E Grant give Oscar-nominated performances as the best-selling celebrity biographer Lee Israel and her loyal friend Jack.

When Israel’s declining sales threaten financial ruin, she repurposes her literary skills to produce and sell forged letters from famous writers for huge sums. But as their crimes progress and the web of suspicion tightens around them, she and Jack find themselves risking everything for the next sale.

Directed by Marielle Heller, this darkly comic tale is adapted from Israel’s 2008 memoir.
