About the movie

Author: The JT LeRoy Story takes us down the infinitely fascinating rabbit hole of how Laura Albert—like a Cyrano de Bergerac on steroids—breathed not only words, but life, into her avatar for a decade. As she recounts this astonishing odyssey, Albert also reveals the intricate web spun by irrepressible creative forces within her. Channeling her brilliant fiction through another identity was the only possible path to self-expression.
Feuerzeig, who previously explored a troubled artistic recluse with the comparatively traditional "The Devil and Daniel Johnston," chose to keeps the focus on the abstract, existential dilemma as Albert faces it.
“A fascinating treatise on creative desire, internal grievances and fame” – IndieWire (A-)
“Wildly entertaining and truly stranger than fiction.” – The Film Stage
“It’s the movie this crazy, endlessly fascinating story deserves.” – Vulture
