AMERICAN SPLENDOUR (2003)

Certification15 Our Rating

Harvey Pekar lives the life most of us dream of avoiding, a filing clerk by day, a man at odds with, and lost in, the world he inhabits the other sixteen hours. Harvey begins to write down his disgruntled observations and with the help of equally cantankerous illustrator, Harry Crumb, ‘American Splendor' is born. This movie of the man's life is an inspired mixture of animation, documentary and dramatisation, with Paul Giamatti finally getting a role worth his talent. Funny, sad, sharp and hip to find out more...

Once you get over yourself and accept that that Welsh accent tumbling from Tom Hardy’s handsome pie hole is actually pretty spot on, you can buckle up and fly right alongside construction worker Ivan Locke (played by TH), as he navigates the s-bends of the sum parts of his existence, from the confines of his BMW X5, while in transit to his future one. Locke’s pathological wont to “do the right thing” drives the eerily tense and compelling narrative. The M6 is excellent find out more...
