May 2, 2013Adult Animation/Gonzo Talking Animals Satire
The first X-rated animated film. Ralph Bakshi's first film, taken from Robert Crumb's cartoons, this is hilariously raunchy as the titular talking cat takes a strung-out but often sharply politicised journey through 1960s counter-culture

Jan 21, 2015Adult Animation/Growing Up in Brooklyn
The second film from animator Ralph Bakshi, follow-up to Fritz the Cat. As opposed to Fritz's surreal trippiness, this is more down-to-earth and sees Bakshi conducting a loose, bawdy trip through his own childhood in Brooklyn

Dec 17, 2000Epic Fantasy/Animation
Way back before Peter Jackson, Ralph Bakshi conducted this animated adaptation of J.R. Tolkien. While by no means uninteresting, the film was not a success and Bakshi failed to return to complete the announced second part of the story
