THE CONFESSIONS OF ROBERT CRUMB

The Confessions of Robert Crumb (1987)
Although similar in some ways to Terry Zwigoff's harrowing documentary CRUMB, this BBC documentary about the famous American underground cartoonist is a lot easier to take, finding Crumb in a reflective, self-deprecating mood as he potters around his farmhouse discussing his obsessions, his likes and dislikes, his life and his art. A thoroughly fascinating look at a unique personality, from the days when the BBC cared to make great documentaries.
