An underground cartoonist in NY seeks inspiration among the inner-city dwellers. A black humoured, at times outrageous satire is an adult animated feature Heavy Traffic (1973) Dir. Ralph Bakshi . Main protagonist Michael sits in a theatre & watches Red Dust (1932) ...  Oh, planetx, you've really brought back some memories for me here. I have a professional connection to HEAVY TRAFFIC, and I can honestly say that it was my introduction to RED DUST. I didn't see the whole film until sometime later, on the small screen, but I'll always remember it from HEAVY TRAFFIC. Oh, man, thanks for the memories!
Bakshi was quite the artist, though I'd be the first to admit that his films weren't for everyone. Here's a clip I found from HEAVY TRAFFIC that includes the clip from RED DUST and has a bit of the film, too. Can't believe it was 1973. Oh, I'm getting old!
