In his critically acclaimed turn as Monk, Jeffrey Wright plays 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... which of course propels him to the heart of hypocrisy and the madness he claims to disdain.
Nominated for five Oscars, including Best Film, Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Actor.
Details
“Brimming with snappy, incisive banter and gags that a masterful ensemble cast led by Jeffrey Wright, Sterling K Brown and Tracee Ellis Ross take full advantage of.”
The Guardian
“Elegantly walking a line between absurdist satire and family drama.”
Empire
“Jefferson overlays the story’s most biting wit with layers of warmth, sadness and discovery that make this movie far more than the sum of its parts.”
Washington Post
