In Based on a True Story (2016), Norm Macdonald pieces together a tale of a once famed Canadian comedian who became a Saturday Night Live writer and presenter at the peak of his career. Norm merges together two plot lines, a main one led by himself, as he dives deeper and deeper into the world of gambling and morphine abuse, and a secondary one led by a fictional ghostwriter, Terence Keane, who simultaneously works on typing Norm's memoir. The two plot lines, which are mostly made up, eventually unite, ultimately forming a comical, absurd, sarcastic, and atypical autobiography, one that is merely... based on a true story.
