Robert Crumb Movie, A Must See
I have often wondered what we would have learned, if a documentary film could have been made of Vincent Van Gogh when he was still alive. Thankfully, we live in an age where we can get a movie made about some of our great artists and see what they are really like.
The Robert Crumb movie "Crumb" shows us a sexually hyper, but frustrated man who is much like the biographical stories and illustration done by Robert Crumb in his comics and books. And, of course, he is not like that at all, being as complicate and simple as any genius artist is.
After seeing him in the flesh, I am eternally thankful that some bully didn't beat him up and break his hands when he was a child. We are lucky to have his talent displayed in this world.
And if you have not yet seen the Robert Crumb movie then you are lucky. It is intriguing and insightful and holds together well as a documentary. If you did know about his art before seeing this flick, you will want to know more...
And for us who have enjoyed his art over the years, we get a little better understanding of what he is doing...
