Can You Ever Forgive Me? (2018)

I like Melissa McCarthy but saying that her latest films have been nothing but disappointments is an understatement. So when Can You Ever Forgive Me? started to get praised for McCarthy's performance —and Richard E. Grant—, I knew I had to give it a chance. 

The film tells the true story of Lee Israel (Melissa McCarthy), an author struggling with financial troubles, writer's block and alcoholism. When her cat gets sick and she doesn't have any money for veterinarian care, Israel is forced to sell her possessions, which includes a personal letter Katharine Hepburn wrote to her. When Israel realises how much money she could make with this kind of memorabilia, she begins to forge letters typed up and signed by famous people.
