One of the smoothest written/directed films I've seen in years! Cord Jefferson and Jeffrey Wright poured so much talent into this comedy/drama genuinely deserves plenty of praise regardless of awards. I crave the well written films or movies they really hit the spot even better with over 8 hours sleep. I like how (Monk) goes from being a not know book writer to a best seller because of a bold cultural story without his name it works quite well and was often funny. American Fiction to me is better than most movies being nominated for awards for it's wisdom, boldness, and nourishing entertainment that anyone can enjoy!
