    One of animator Ralph Bakshi's many brilliant films. As usual, I loved the tunes in this one. The story starts in the days of ragtime music and goes all the way through the era of punk rock. Very cool.

    A brilliant film from animation legend Ralph Bakshi (Fritz the Cat, J.R.R. Tolkein's The Lord of the Rings). It's the story of a family that immigrates from Russia and what follows are four generations of talented performers. A very deep movie. Check it out for the amazing rotoscoping.

    Ambitious animated musical traces the progression of pop music through the lives of a Jewish immigrant family in 20th century America. Arguably the finest feature film from maverick animator Ralph Bakshi shines with imagination, style and a fantastic score of pop standards.

    Bakshi's films try to use animation to tell grown up stories. This time it worked well. The retroscoping technique gives the animated characters great realistic nuances. The story is compelling. The music is intigrated well.
