Sinopsis(1)
Melissa McCarthy interpreta a Lee Israel, la biógrafa superventas de famosos (y amante de los gatos) que se ganó la vida en la década de los 70 y 80 realizando las biografías de artistas como Katharine Hepburn, Tallulah Bankhead, Estée Lauder o la periodista Dorothy Kilgallen. Cuando Lee ve que ya no le publican sus libros porque no está a la altura del mercado, cambia su método y empieza a realizar falsificaciones instigada por su leal amigo Jack (Richard E. Grant). (20th Century Fox España)
