J.T. LeRoy dives into the murky waters of identity and deception. Savannah Knoop, played with an intriguing mix of vulnerability and audacity, embodies a persona that never existed—a young author who becomes a literary sensation by pretending to be a transgender man. The film leans heavily on its atmospheric tone, capturing both the excitement and the tension of being caught in a web of lies. Justin Kelly's direction has a raw edge, enhancing the emotional beats without unnecessary gloss. It’s a film that explores the blurry lines between reality and fiction, leaving you pondering long after it ends. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the weight of the themes to settle but never dragging. A curious piece for collectors who appreciate layered narratives.
