Crumb (1995)


"Crumb" is R. Crumb, Robert Crumb, the infamous underground comic book 
artist responsible for, among other things, Felix the Cat and "keep on 
truckin'."  He's also the subject of this fascinating documentary that 
both recounts the artist's life, and attempts to explain some of the 
effects *of* that life on his work.  Director Terry Zwigoff worked for 
six years on this extraordinarily intimate look at twisted genius, and 
the dysfunctional family that created it. 

Not recommended for Robert Dole family viewing.

Grade: A
