Detailed item info
Movie description
Harvey Pekar, the hilariously downtrodden Cleveland comic book artist, is the subject of AMERICAN SPLENDOR, titled after Pekar's autobiographical series. Played by actor Paul Giamatti, Pekar also appears as himself, giving the film a documentary feeling with many behind-the-scenes on-set shots. Directors Shari Springer Berman and Robert Pulcini maintain this balance between the actors and the real-life characters--Pekar's wife Joyce and coworker Toby also appear on set as themselves--while crafting a funny, difficult, heartwarming tale that encapsulates Pekar's life, work, and uniquely bizarre perspectives. Pekar is a pessimistic file clerk with no hope of ever rising above his boring job, slobbish apartment, and bad attitude. Wonderfully set in his ways, Pekar's constant self-deprication is clearly a front for his prolific interests in music and art. When his friend Robert Crumb (James Urbaniak) gets his big break as a comic book artist, Pekar decides to try his hand at the craft. Though he can't illustrate, his stories are good, and Crumb agrees to help draw the pictures. Soon several artists are illustrating Pekar's American Splendor series, and the comic book's readership grows. The film continues through the events of Pekar's life--meeting wife Joyce Brabner, appearing on David Letterman, struggling with cancer, and adopting a daughter--always showing Pekar's no-frills approach to life. A creative and punchy film, AMERICAN SPLENDOR invites viewers into the odd world of Pekar and his comic-book antihero persona.

This is American Splendor. This is a fullscreen edition.

Languages: English

Subtitles: N/A

Unless otherwise noted in the line above, all discs including blu-ray come with artwork, disc or discs, and case. Dvds come in their original plastic case or cardboard/plastic case unless we find the case damaged then we replace the plastic case. We cannot replace plastic/cardboard cases and will be sent as they are. Many times paper inserts or cardboard slipcases are missing, if item has these we will notate in ad.

We do not sell bootlegs or burned dvds. DVDs are purchased from various sources in the US, and were originally sold in stores in the US. DVD's are a Region 1, meaning they were sold in the US and Canada for US and Canadian machines. If you are outside of the US and Canada and do not own a region 1 dvd player, these DVD's WILL NOT play in your machine!

In our titles we have a listing code based on condition of discs. Code is as follows: N (new, factory sealed) LN (like new), VG (very good) and G (good). We do not sell acceptable...if an ad is represented as such, it is a listing error, please email us for the real condition.

Condition listed in ad is based on the condition of the DVD! We do clean up cases as we can, replace cases when badly damaged, but condition of cases is not reflected in condition listed below. Our grading of discs are as follows:

Brand new: Is a factory sealed dvd.

Like new: DVD does not have any visible scratches to item. Might have a fingerprint or two if we missed it in the dvd rewashing phase.

Very good: DVD might have a light scratch or two, or a couple. We test these to make sure they play in our machines and they play just fine.

Good: DVD has been rebuffed to take out skips and freezes in the movie. Some might have visible scratches to see. We test these to make sure the movie plays all the way through without it skipping or freezing in our machines.

Scans shown in our ads are of the dvd. These may differ from what the Muze info shows.

If you are purchasing multiple items please read the following:

Bid and purchase as you would, do NOT go thru checkout for each item. Items cannot be combined once checkout in complete on a single item. Just use the buy it now, commit, then go onto the next item you desire. Once you have finished your purchasing then go thru checkout. Items will automatically combine for the discount shipping at that time. There are 2 exceptions to this...the first being TV series sets...they might not combine correctly for the correct shipping, the other is for international bidders (except Canada). International bidders you items WILL NOT combine correctly for the proper shipping amount. You must request an invoice, please use the messaging system. If proper shipping is not paid on the item, your payment will be refunded and an invoice sent to you...this just delays things.

Also...we ship items in order that payments are recieved. We cannot catch items paid for seperately, and they will ship seperately. We will not refund differences in what would have been a combined shipping if paid for and shipped seperately.

We will combine up to 6 days of auction and buy it now items. On the 7th day payment is due for all items. We always send invoices out on Thursday evenings for all items, but we do combine items periodically throughout the weekend. If you need an invoice sooner than these times, and the system is not combining correctly for you, please email me thru the ebay system.

Also....please allow plenty of time for items to go thru your customs. Items can take from 3 days up to 4 weeks to clear depending on the level of items coming in.

Shipping rates:

To prevent us from continually rewriting this portion whenever postal rates increase, please read the following carefully.

On E-Bay....either in the portion immediately under the item title...OR...if you curser down to the bottom portion where you are to bid...you will see the BASE rate to ship one item based on what method or country you are from. An EXAMPLE would be: Arizona would see the 2 rates: 3.00 for media mail or 6.00 for priority mail, Canadians would see 4.00 for first class international or 20.00 for priority mail international. THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE!!!! This is the base rate you will pay if you are buying just one item.

We do offer a discount if mulitple items are purchased and shipped together. (Please see other information for an explanation)

The discount rates for 2 or more dvds are:

US and Canada: For each extra single dvd titles it is 1.00. For each extra TV series sets it is 2.00.

International Bidders (Including Mexico): For single dvd titles it is 3.00. For each extra TV series sets it is 6.00.

AN EXAMPLE OF COMBINING (EXAMPLE ONLY): Mary is from the US she purchases 3 regular dvds. If she chose media mail, she would pay the base rate, lets say that is 3.00 plus 2.00 for the additional 2 dvds, for a total of 5.00 total shipping costs.
