Storyline

Harvey Pekar (Paul Giamatti) leads an ordinary life in the city of Cleveland, working as a file clerk at the local VA hospital. Being divorced twice, Harvey fills his solitary days with reading and listening to music, and he regularly scours garage sales and thrift stores for rare Jazz records. His routine life changes for the better when a chance meeting with a greeting card artist and music enthusiast Robert Crumb (James Urbaniak) develops into a warm friendship through their common interests. Once Crumb becomes famous for his underground comic books, Harvey decides to write his own book with Crumb’s illustrations. ‘American Splendor’ tells truthful, unsentimental, warts-and-all stories about his working-class life. Soon Harvey achieves cult fame and meets his future wife, Joyce (Joyce Brabner), a comic book storeowner from Delaware.
