Based on the novel Erasure, this 2023 comedy-drama by Cord Jefferson starring Jeffrey Wright tells the story of a professor who finds unexpected success with a new approach to writing.
"Thelonious 'Monk' Ellison's writing career has stalled because his work isn't deemed 'Black enough.' Monk, a writer and English professor, writes a satirical novel under a pseudonym, aiming to expose the publishing world's hypocrisies. The book's immediate success forces him to get deeper enmeshed in his assumed identity and challenges his closely-held worldviews."—Swank Motion Pictures Inc.
