Summary:

From director Terry Zwigoff (Ghost World, Bad Santa and upcoming Art School Confidential) comes one of the most critically-acclaimed films ever made. A hilarious amd mysterious journey through artistic genius and sexual obsession, CRUMB is a wild ride through the mind of R. Crumb - creator of Zap Comix, Mr. Natural, and Fritz the Cat. 'CRUMB enters a territory as spooky as it is fascinating ... a portrait of the artist as misanthrope, as bad-boy visionary, as joker and sex maniac and , finally, as hero. One of those rare film experiences that has the giddy effect of being a nightmare and a party at the same time. Extraordinary!' - Entertainment Weekly.
