For these denizens of Charlottesville, the intersection between the status quo and the quest for freedom becomes the challenge. Something as simple as a parking lot becomes an emotional weigh station for The American Dream. In the end, as one attendant interestingly puts it, We had it all in a world that had nothing to offer us.

Weird sex · Obsession · Comic books
Crumb is a 1994 documentary film about the noted underground cartoonist Robert Crumb (R. Crumb) and his family.
Watch the Trailer!
This movie chronicles the life and times of R. Crumb. Robert Crumb is the cartoonist/artist who drew Keep On Truckin', Fritz the Cat, and played a major pioneering role in the genesis of underground comix. Through interviews with his mother, two brothers, wife, and ex-girlfriends, as well as selections from his vast quantity of graphic art, we are treated to a darkly comic ride through one man's subconscious mind. As stream-of-consciousness images incessantly flow forth from the tip of his pen, biting social satire is revealed, often along with a disturbing and haunting vision of Crumb's own betes noires and inadequacies. As his acid-trip induced images flicker across our own retinas, we gain a little insight into this complex and highly creative individual.Written by Tad Dibbern <DIBBERN_D@a1.mscf.upenn.edu>

Oscar: The Color of Destiny (2008) Trailer
Óscar. Una pasión surrealista
The touching portrayal of a cursed painter.
Watch the Trailer!
"Óscar. The Color of Destiny" is a revealing portrayal of a forgotten icon of French
Surrealism: Spanish painter Óscar Domínguez, contemporary of Picasso. The film
rediscovers the life of a talented artist who was ignored after he committed suicide,
fifty years ago, victim of a serious illness which had disfigured his body: the
Elephant Man's disease. The film is stirring and touching and compels admiration
for the bohemian painter whose fate was self-destruction, after a wild crazy life.
Lucas Fernández turns the life of a debauchee, who regarded himself a monster
because of his disfiguring disease, into a universal story where art is the
product of love and loneliness, of sex and violence before, during and after
the Nazi invasion of Paris.
