Review of Author: The JT LeRoy Story (2016) by Alec B — 07 Dec 2016
Laura Albert never seems like the type of person capable of such a far reaching deception, especially since none of what she did was malicious or some Andy Kaufman-esque prank. A unspoken thesis in the documentary seems to be that narrative, not truth, is what moves the public.
So many people wanted JT LeRoy to be real that they ignored their better judgement.
