Love the animation but there is almost nothing going on.
The voice acting is great but the sound mixing is horrid.
I geuss this movie was probably made on a small budget but still, chris the voice mixing blows.
I thought the beginning was nice but thats it.
Hey Good Lookin'

How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A raucous, surreal dive into 1950s Brooklyn street life that balances nostalgia with unflinching observations of youth, desire, and social divisions. Bakshi's freewheeling animation style, mixing live-action and stylized drawings, gives the film a dreamlike, unbounded energy that matches its chaotic emotional register.
