RALPH BAKSHI’S - STREET FIGHT
DVD, RATED R
FROM THE CREATOR OF ‘COOL WORLD’
STARRING: PHILLIP MICHAEL THOMAS, SCATMAN CROTHERS, BARRY WHITE
IN 1974, RALPH BAKSHI (THE LORD OF THE RINGS, FRITZ THE CAT), LONG CONSIDERED AMERICA’S MOST ICONOCLASTIC ANIMATOR, TEAMED P WITH PRODUCE ALBERT RUDDY JR. (THE GODFATHER), PERFORMERS BARRY WHITE AND SCATMAN CROTHERS, AND A GROUP OF THE MOST PROMISING BLACK ANIMATORS IN HOLLYWOOD TO CREATE AN UNFLINCHING AND UNAPOLOGETIC PORTRAYAL OF LIFE IN A HARLEM GHETTO.
ORIGINALLY RELEASED AS COONSKIN, STREET FIGHT IS THE ALLEGORICAL TALE OF THREE HUSTLERS WHO MOVE INTO HARLEM AND SQUEEZE THE LOCAL GODFATHER OUT OF THE RACKETS. THE FILM WAS GREETED WITH A HAILSTORM OF NEGATIVE PUBLICITY BY A WELL ORGANIZED POLITICAL ACTION GROUP (CORE) AND WAS YANKED FROM THEATERS BY DISTRIBUTOR PARAMOUNT PICTURES WITHIN A WEEK OF ITS RELEASE.
BAKSHI, WHO WAS RAISED IN BROOKLYN’S ROUGH BEDFORD-STUYVESANT SECTION, WAS INCENSED BY THE ALLEGATIONS OF RACISM AND GAVE MANY INTERVIEWS IN WHICH HE DEFENDED THE FILM’S PORTRAYALS AND ARTISTIC MERITS.
IN DESCRIBING ‘STREET FIGHT’, BAKSHI TOLD THE VILLAGE VOICE, ‘I HAD THIS DREAM THAT ANIMATION COULD BE THE MEDIUM OF THE PEOPLE, TO BE FUNNY AND FUNKY BUT ALSO LET THEM KNOW WHO MIGHT BE ‘F BLEEP’ THEM OVER. IF DISNEY WORKED FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS, I WAS GONNA WORK FOR THE KIDS ON THE STREET’.
