    The degree of completion is very high. At the beginning, Tom Clancy was black. Melissa really don't waste her talent by messing with those bad...

    Except for the sadness, I didn't see the cuteness of the protagonist. The title is the letter, but the script does not show the content of the false letter and the people touched by the false letter. This miscarriage led to the meaning of false letters to the protagonist, in fact, only to the extent of making money, and did not make the protagonist higher than a scammer. The heroine was looked up to in the letter, and was therefore funny and flexible, which could have been contrasted with the...

    The characters are quite three-dimensional and the subject matter is very interesting. The pictures are often beautiful, but I don’t understand why there are so many low-level audiovisual processing. At the scene, I almost spewed water after seeing the shots that even gave three bar...

    After watching the ride home, looking at people on the road wrapped in winter clothes with their necks walking in the cold wind, it suddenly occurred to me that this story is actually very similar to Midnight Cowboy. Winter in New York can be the warm Christmas tree and sweater in the Nora Efron movie, but it is also more likely to be dirty and lonely. One is a frustrated but unwilling writer who can only make a living by copying letters, and the other is a comrade who can only live by sleeping...

    It turned out that being a female writer and raising a cat would be so miserable when she grows old. I'm not doing it properly...

    Literary crime stories of real people and real things, the gray combination of Lao Ji Lao Ji. There are not only the portrayal of comrades who have nothing to rely on, but also the creative resonance of writers. Melissa McCarthy's performance is completely natural. After watching it, people will not love and hate the character, but it can give birth to a touch of pity and inexplicable closeness. Probably the best lesbian movie completed this...

    "sordid, and pretty damned" by nytimes is the most accurate evaluation. The protagonist is so cute because of her arrogance without guilt. It also draws a line between the film and the conventional crime film focusing on the motive and process of committing crimes. It has a certain feminine perspective. From another perspective, isn't this also a projection of Melissa Mccarthy's own situation in...

    Hollywood's most underrated drama actress finally decided to give up her husband's director's stick and act well. The character description and narrative rhythm are extremely good, McCarthy's indiscriminate anger, undercurrents, scheming, complacency in front of the close-up shots of McCarthy, especially in the jazz bar, the aura of hope that was attracted by the beauty and brilliance hits the soul directly....

    2.5 / The chemical reaction of the male and female leaders is quite strong. But in the face of such an excellent subject, the main impression is to see countless possible shining points flashing past my eyes and then being accurately avoided by the director one by one to become the most empty "C'est La Vie" lyric. It seems that I didn't do anything except to arouse my curiosity about the original...

    Single, old age, female, writing, poverty, raising a cat (and later died), social fear, obesity, alcoholism, theft, fraud, drug-addicting + AIDS gay honey... All the elements are stacked together, and I feel that life is derailed. It’s a disaster for me, but I’m so happy to be filmed, I’ve worked hard for you, director, and I’ve worked hard for you,...

Can You Ever Forgive Me? quotes

  • Lee Israel: You pissed in a closet.

    Jack Hock: I did what?

    Lee Israel: You pissed in a closet. Now I remember. Nobody could stop talking about the English gentleman...

    Jack Hock: Why thank you.

    Lee Israel: Who was so shit-faced, he mistook the closet for the can. You ruined thousands of dollars worth of furs. Those old biddies didn't know what hit them!

    [both laugh]

    Lee Israel: Oh the disgusting furs covered in piss. Dogs followed them home!

    Jack Hock: [laughing] Oh I'm glad somebody found it amusing. Some folks stopped talking to me after that night.

    Lee Israel: Well, fuck 'em!

  • Lee Israel: Give me one good reason why that cocky shit gets three million dollars and you can't give me ten thousand? Are you that bad of an agent?

    Marjorie: Toni, could you please close the door? Miss Israel have some sensitive business to discuss.

    Lee Israel: Yeah, God forbid you have to hear an adult conversation, Toni!

    Marjorie: I'll give you three reasons. Number one, Tom Clancy is famous.

    Lee Israel: Oh, here we go!

    Marjorie: Yes, you have written a couple of successful biographies and you've managed to disappear behind your subject matter. But because of that, nobody knows who you are!

    Lee Israel: Because I'm doing my job!

    Marjorie: Number two, Tom Clancy does every radio show. He does Larry King, he goes to book signings, he plays the game. Meanwhile, you have destroyed every bridge I have built for you.

    Lee Israel: See that is beside the point, I am doing good writing!

    Marjorie: Number three, nobody wants a book about Fanny Brice! There is nothing new or sexy about Fanny Brice. I couldn't get you a ten dollar advance for a book about Fanny Brice!
