Hey Good Lookin' is an animated film by Ralph Bakshi that was released in 1982. It features the voices of Richard Romanus, David Proval, Tina Bowman, Jesse Welles, and Phillip Michael Thomas.The film takes place in Brooklyn, 1953, and focuses on charismatic hood Vinnie Genzianna, the leader of a greaser gang named "the Stompers", his friend and second-in-command Crazy Shapiro, and their respective girlfriends Roz and Eva, as they get wrapped up in an escalating conflict with the rival black gang, "the Chaplains", lead by Boogaloo Jones.Originally planned as a live-action/animated movie, it was later changed to a fully animated film. It has been said that its original live-action/animated setting is still around but may be hard to find. A soundtrack of the film was released around 2006.

comment
Dirty Coward: Vinnie constantly ogles Rozzie and gropes her any chance he gets. He also chickens out during the rumble even after he got the rest of the Stompers involved. It's justified though, as he did want to fight the Chaplains at one point, and only wanted to do so because he wanted be a man for Rozzie.

Anachronism Stew: Most of the film takes place in The '50s, but a lot of the fashions worn by the characters in those scenes come straight from the late '70s and '80s, when it was actually made. Vinnie and Rozzie in particular stand out, as well as most of the Chaplains.

Bittersweet Ending: Crazy and most of the Stompers are killed during the rumble, and Vinnie skips town when all is said and done. When Vinnie returns from his self-imposed exile after 30 years, Roz, now a broken woman in an unhappy marriage, has nothing but contempt towards him, even if Vinnie is willing to mend their relationship. In the end, Vinnie decides that the best way to be a man is to stay by his girl's side through thick and thin, and the two lovers reunite.

Torture Always Works: Subverted in that while Solly does manage to beat an answer out of his son, Crazy lies to take the heat off himself and fingers Vinnie for murdering the two Chaplains as a way of telling him what he wants to hear.

Deconstruction: Of 1950s nostalgia, whether people think the 1950s were really just like Happy Days or Grease or whatever. The "cool" main character is a Dirty Coward, he and his girlfriend aren't really in love, his Plucky Comic Relief sidekick is mentally disturbed, he and his gang are not True Companions, etc.

Deliberate Values Dissonance: In true Bakshi fashion, there's a lot of racial inequality depicted throughout the film. For example, the beach that Vinnie and Crazy go to about mid-way through the film is segregated. Homophobic slurs also get dropped a few times.

Lighter and Softer: Downplayed. The movie is more of a coming of age hangout movie about young people in the 1950s instead of Bakshi's more political-oriented films like Fritz the Cat or ''Coonskin.
