WINNER - Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar!
AMERICAN FICTION is Cord Jefferson's hilarious directorial debut, which confronts our culture's obsession with reducing people to outrageous stereotypes. Jeffrey Wright stars as Monk, a frustrated novelist who's fed up with the establishment profiting from "Black" entertainment that relies on tired and offensive tropes. To prove his point, Monk uses a pen name to write an outlandish "Black" book of his own, a book that propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain.
American Fiction Reviews:
"Perhaps one of the most provocative and strongest satires in recent memory, American Fiction contains wickedly smart writing, superb performances, and messaging so in-your-face that it could almost be easy to miss." - Screen Rant | Metacritic
"The literary world jabs are sharp and funny, but it’s the rueful family dynamics that make the film so rewarding, as well as the performances." - New York Magazine | Metacritic
