Heavy Traffic [Special Edition] [Blu-ray] [1973]

I liked it a lot and enjoyed it, worth my money and time

Ralph Bakshi will never quite be a household name like Walt Disney or have characters as famous as Bugs Bunny or Daffy Duck but he put out gritty animated parodies for adults. Films that don't shirk their idea of art or pop culture. This film like 'Fritz the Cat' and 'Coonskin' is a product of it's time. Bakshi tried to make a point with his films. usually with caricatures and pop culture references of that time that might not make any sense to people today. This film is about two people from different places in their lives trying to find what most people want, love, acceptance and a sense of well being through the darkness in life. This film really has that urban feel of it's time and the animation is probably considered outdated and even crude by today's standards but it is still relevant and should be looked at as the time piece it is.
