CAN YOU EVER FORGIVE ME?
\nFox Searchlight Pictures
\nReviewed by: Harvey Karten
\nDirector: Marielle Heller
\nScreenwriter: Nicole Holofcener, Jeff Whitty, based on Lee Israel\u2019s book \u201cCan You Ever Forgive Me?\u201d

Considering that the FBI could not find enough dirt on a person running for one of our country\u2019s top jobs, it\u2019s a miracle that the organization even bothered to follow a small-time forger like Lee Israel. Maybe her arrest was all Ms. Israel needed to re-start her writing career, since she finally embraced what every other writer appreciates, which is \u201cWrite what you know.\u201d Though one of her earlier books made the New York Times Best Seller list, she was not obeying that command as she penned biographies of famous people that she may never have met such as Dorothy Kilgallen, Est\u00e9e Lauder and Tallulah Bankhead. Why anyone wants to spend eight hours or so reading a book about a game show host is beyond me. Then again, you may indeed want to pick up a copy of Israel\u2019s magnum opus, \u201cCan You Ever Forgive Me? Memoirs of a Literary forger.\u201d By definition, Lee Israel was a criminal, but on the other hand, unlike the figure inhabiting the White House, she was a minor felon, and the people she ripped off were so rich that they could afford to buy letters written allegedly by Dorothy Parker, Marlene Dietrich, and Noel Coward. And if they were never compensated, they could easily suck up the financial losses.<\/p>\n

Is Lee Israel a charming person\u2014which, you figure, she\u2019d have to be in order to get away with selling forgeries? Possibly, but in her role, Melissa McCarthy certainly makes her so. The actress known for vulgar comedies like Paul Feig\u2019s \u201cBridesmaids,\u201d with her key scene sitting on a sink during a wedding party and using the facility as though it were a toilet. Starting her career as a stand-up comic, McCarthy gained nationwide fame in the mostly unfunny sit-com \u201cMike & Molly,\u201d and is now in her most serious role. This is not to say that \u201cCan You Ever Forgive Me?\u201d is a downer, notwithstanding her character\u2019s regular friendship with the bottle, but mining Lee Israel\u2019s depths, the comic as well as the melodramatic, McCarthy may be able to reserve a berth as Best Actress as awards season rolls around.<\/p>\n

Marielle Heller in the director\u2019s seat is known by cinephiles for \u201cDiary of a Teenage Girl,\u201d a teen who in 1970 started an affair with her mother\u2019s boyfriend. This puts her current work in her m\u00e9tier as a filmmaker who knows how to write women\u2019s roles, and she is backed up by writers Nicole Holofcener and Jeff Whitty who adapt Lee Israel\u2019s most important and lucrative best-seller.<\/p>\n

Though originally a successful writer, Israel finds one bookstore that has marked down one of her writings by 75%, where it languishes in the remnants pile. She\u2019s broke, not able to afford even a 5th-floor walkup in New York\u2019s Upper West Side with a cat that is old and sick, refused treatment by a vet because of an unpaid balance. Made up with short hair, large glasses, looking somewhat like the Republican Party\u2019s hire to question Judge Kavanaugh\u2019s accuser, McCarthy has a gift for deadpan humor, which for me is the only kind. (My mother always reminded me that a good comedian never laughs at her own jokes.) Her best gay friend Jack Hock (Richard E. Grant) will ultimately act as her accomplice in crime, supplementing her role in selling forged letters to book sellers who deal with high-end collectors. To ensure her success in selling off these brief documents by Dorothy Parker and others, she researches the kind of type they used to dash off mail to their friends, picking up ancient typewriters in antique stores and using her talent to emulate the way these personalities would sound on paper. Able to conclude sales of 400 such documents, she made one mistake that brought the law down on her, but not before she befriended a lonely bookshop owner, Dolly Wells (Anna), who awakened Israel emotionally. <\/p>\n

Some felons are awfully charming. In the role of this woman with larceny in her heart, Melissa McCarthy plays Lee Israel with understated authenticity, unafraid, or course, to come out with the usual spicy language. Her fans from TV will want to see her in a serious role, though it\u2019s not too likely that aficionados of sit-coms will have heard of Dorothy Parker and Marlene Dietrich, much less have read a sentence of their writing or have seen them on the big screen.<\/p>\n
