To watch this film is to be reminded of Paul Giamatti’s performance as the gloomy cartoonist Harvey Pekar in American Splendor (2003) or the real Robert Crumb, the dark master of offensive sexual transgression in Terry Zwigoff’s classic documentary Crumb (1994), along with his unforgettably unhappy and marginalised brothers Charles and Max. There are some great cameos, including a hilarious one from the legendary Louise Lasser as a mean lady in a pharmacist. But the entirely awful and very mad Wallace, by his own admission, had no creative input in these comics, and can do nothing but drag Robert into an awful chaos: the unfunny pages of real life.
