Review of Heavy Traffic (1973) by Cronis M — 05 Aug 2017
Working my way through Ralph Bakshi's filmography has been an interesting experience 2 movies in. Bakshi is mentioned by some to be the most important animator behind Walt Disney. I do love his Lord of the Rings as well Cool World, but I think I need to see more before I crown him.
Fritz was innovative as far as animation and storytelling but Fritz wasn't a likable character and there isn't much of a story. This one has a Bonnie and Clyde story and it is much better than Fritz.
It's considered his masterpiece and again, I need to see more. I love that he let's his actors improvise the dialogue so it felt like real conversations. This gives the film an organic feel and a unique viewing experience.
