Episode Details

It’s Problematic Art Week on KYI! This episode Elena and Sam are joined by animator Frank Gidlewski for a round-table on Ralph Bakshi’s 1973 Künstlerroman "Heavy Traffic". There is much talk of the film's depictions of various taboos both sexual and racial, so, be warned. Also much rumination on the woes of the modern film/animation landscape so… TW for that as well, if you’re an animator. Other topics include: making out during edgy movies, parallels with the Godfather, and feuds with R. Crumb.
