Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Ralph Bakshi cites Heavy Traffic as his favorite film in his career. This was originally to be Ralph's first film; however, it was "put on hold" because the producer believed that he couldn't sell this film due to Bakshi's inexperience as a film director; the success of Fritz the Cat, the first animated film to be rated X in the United States, saved the production of Heavy Traffic. In a sense, the film could be seen as an animated companion piece to Martin Scorsese's Mean Streets.The film was eventually rereleased on Blu-ray by Shout! Factory for its 40th anniversary. | |

Animated Music Video: Although only in one segment, Chuck Berry's "Maybellene" is played while in the style of Underground Comics and the design sense is a homage to George Herriman. | |

All Just a Dream: After Michael gets shot in the head at the climax, it turns out the film's animated sequences were all in his head as the film switches to a real-life Michael for the last several minutes. And given it happens after Michael loses a game of pinball (a recurring symbolism piece) and how closely his real-life parallels that of the cartoon fantasy, and not to mention the film's POV driven nature was constantly foreshadowed throughout the film (with the frequent mixing of animation and live-action, and film literally starting with a real-life Michael playing the pinball game) this twist actually comes off as very well thought out. | |
