Review of Crumb (1995) by Bill B — 23 Jan 2014
Gave this a re-watch in honor of the Criterion Blu-ray release - man, it's such a great film.
A fascinating bio of a legendarily eccentric misanthrope, Zwigoff's film follows Crumb as he prepares to leave the US for a new life in France. He visits his family and a few ex-girlfriends and wives who fill in history on the man, along with extensive interviews in which he showcases his work as well as the various inspirations and tragedies behind it.
Highly recommended.
