Crumb (1994)

A documentary directed and produced by Terry Zwigoff.
Artist Robert Crumb takes part in interviews involving his 2 brothers and some ex-wives.
This was an amazing film. Besides liking the artwork and how the film was made, I found out that Robert Crumb's personality is in some ways similar to mine. He's just a dorky dude who wants to be working on his creative projects all the time like me. When Crumb visits his brothers, one is a shut-in who lives with their mother and is on prescription drugs. The other brother is an artist as well and has some strange "health procedures". While sitting in the interviews with this insanity, Robert responds to everything with a good natured laugh and keeps the interview moving along. Instead of finding verbose ways to praise the film, I will just recommend it and rate it awesome. I watched it on Crackle.
