American fiction
- Nominated in five categories: film, actor, supporting actor, adapted screenplay, and original score.
If you have some time left in the 45 minutes of the second half, give him a chance American fiction. Despite competing in important categories at the Oscars, the film arrived quietly in Brazil, without being shown in cinemas, and received little publicity. The film is not expected to shine in the categories in which it competes, but it is a pleasant surprise: in the plot, Thelonious “Monk” Ellison (Jeffrey Wright) is a university professor and writer who finds himself frustrated by the publishing market’s predilection for stories that they limit blacks to suffering. He ends up writing a satirical novel full of stereotypes that he doesn’t agree with, and is surprised by the work’s commercial appeal. A sharp and intelligent review. READ MORE ABOUT THE FILM.
