Hi. I wonder if you would recommend for me a movie to watch at home tonight.
Hi, how can I help you? Can you give me some details about your movie?
Yeah, definitely. I'm looking for something that's going to last less than 2 hours. Something in the genre of drama and preferably something that's not mainstream.
Any particular actor or actresses in this movie?
No particular actor preferences. Okay.
May I make a movie suggestion?
Absolutely, yeah, please.
How about the movie American Splendor?
Can you tell me a bit about it?
Underground comic book writer Harvey Pekar, portrayed by Paul Giamatti but also appearing as himself, is the subject of this inventive biopic. Much of the film focuses on the eccentric Pekar's day-to-day life in Cleveland, particularly his relationship with his patient wife, Joyce Brabner (played by Hope Davis and also appearing as herself). As Pekar's musings are brought to the screen in this unique and engaging production, the movie playfully incorporates comic book-like panels.
Yeah, that sounds like a lot of fun. Definitely fitting the description of a drama that's sort of off the beat and bat. Thanks. Is the movie available on Hulu Plus currently? That's how I'd like to see it if possible.
Yes it is available.
