When "Coonskin/Streetfight" caused a load of controversy and the technical specs caused difficulty, this one sat on a shelf for WAY too long.
And it may be Bakshi's best.
This was like "Heavy Traffic" but two decades earlier. Take away the 70's lingo and bring in the greasers. Ralph seems to be exorcising a rough past with his father here. Not for the first time either.
The best part of this film is the wrecking of the 50's myth. It wasn't all great economy and capitalism. The poor existed. Gangs ran rampant. And the races were at odds. This film points that out. And points again...
The autobiographical angle shows too. Both this and "Traffic" have the struggling artist character getting heat from all around him.
This was like a JD flick but VERY serious. Getting lost in that shuffle was the worst thing that could happen to it.
Go see it.
