Marc Meyers’ My Friend Dahmer, based on John “Derf” Backderf’s autobiographical comic of the same name, is both, making it one of those rare movies like American Splendor that gives you a fine-tuned and specific view of a well-known person from someone who knew them. There have been movies based on true stories, just as there have been those based on comic books and graphic novels.
