Nothing to forgive


Can You Ever Forgive Me? (2018)

Directed by Marielle Heller this film based on real events stars Melissa McCarthy and Richard E. Grant. In 1991 a struggling biography writer starts forging correspondence by famous writers to sell for memorabilia.

It is nice to see a more dramatic performance from Melissa McCarthy to remind us that she has more range than her full comedies. The plot of this film is funny and in its own way touching. There is plenty to enjoy as well as little to take home from the struggles of the protagonist.

3/5
