Leave your thoughts about Author: The JT LeRoy Story.
| ThrillistThrillist Entertainment StaffA highly compelling collage of stylish archival footage and recorded phone conversations that flesh out this notorious Catfish-like caper of the literary world. |
| FanboyNation.comSean MulvihillI'm still in shock, and I'm guessing those that befriended JT LeRoy are still, too. |
| Aisle SeatMike McGranaghanA mind-blowing document of creation and deception. Every second of the film leaves you captivated. |
| RogerEbert.comGodfrey CheshireAuthor is a particular kind of documentary: a first-person account of the creation of a myth by its creator. As such, it poses all sorts of questions about the intersection of art, celebrity and psychological disturbance in our media culture, but it also gives us Laura Albert as a shape-shifting artist of astonishing talent, resourcefulness and originality. |
| IndiewireEric KohnDirector Jeff Feuerzeig tracks Albert’s bizarre scheme in her own words, constructing a fascinating treatise on creative desire, internal grievances and fame as compelling as anything the writer herself dreamed up. |
| NUVO NewsweeklySam WatermeierAuthor: The JT LeRoy Story is a testament to the magic of art and how it can make a fantasy feel achingly real. |
| Seattle TimesMoira MacDonaldFeuerzeig lets us put together the puzzle pieces of Albert’s story. The film’s final five minutes — a punch to the heart — make it all clear. |
| Consequence of SoundRandall ColburnAuthor posits the JT LeRoy situation as much more than a mere curiosity, instead portraying it as an important shift in the way pop culture began to discuss identity and gender, themes that have become are all the more relevant in the social media age. |
| The Film StageJohn FinkAuthor: The JT LeRoy Story is wildly entertaining and truly stranger than fiction. |
| New York Magazine (Vulture)Bilge EbiriThat Feuerzeig can navigate this hall of mirrors so cleanly and effectively is positively supernatural. |
