| Heavy Traffic, the second feature from writer/director Ralph Bakshi (Fritz the Cat, Wizards, The Lord of the Rings, Fire and lce), combines a quick-edit pace, a frenetic story Iine and an array of eye-popping animation and Iive-action styIes. "PowerfuI, raw and vaIid" (Los Angeles Times), this "remarkabIe bIend" of filmic styles is a "hypnotic, Iife-giving experience" (The Hollywood Reporter)! MichaeI Corleone (Joseph Kaufmann, Johnny Got His Jun, Jud, Brute Corps), a young cartoonist who lives with his neurotic mother and two-timing father, escapes the absurd and often ugly side of life on New York's tough streets by satirizing it's rich yet wacky characters in wiIdly entertaining cartoons. From the gruff homeless and wisecracking prostitutes to guntoting gangsters and corrupt cops, Michael's worId becomes an outIandish kaleidoscope of shocking images and horrifying events that are either a testament of his wild imagination... or a reminder of the strangeness of reaIity. BeverIy Hope Atkinson (TV's Sanford and Son, TV's Dark Shadows), Frank DeKova (The Ten Commandments, TV's F Troop, The Mechanic), LiIlian Adams (The Jerk, Bruce Almighty, Private Benjamin), and Jamie Farr (TV's M*A*S*H, The Cannonball Run, Scrooged) round out the cast. |
