Fantastic documentary about comics guru, and madman Robert Crumb. This film predates Terry Zwigoff's 'Crumb' by ... 7 years, and contains some truly bizarre moments captured by a BBC film crew over in the States. The artist discusses the seeds of his 60s work, Mr. Natural, Fritz the Cat, and also features interviews with his wife Aline.

"In 1987, Robert Crumb presents himself: raised by a Marine father, educated in Catholic schools, married at 21 in Cleveland where he worked for a greeting card company, dropping acid in 1965, heading to San Francisco and getting in on the formation of Zap Comix, gaining celebrity, loving old time jazz, starting a band, living in a commune, meeting Aline Kominsky who became his second wife and his partner in art, having a daughter, and developing a more realistic drawing style. The confessions include his loneliness, his obsessions with women, his bewilderment by fame, his sense of the disintegration of Sixties' subculture, his nervous breakdown in 1973, and his peace now."
