Review of Fantastic Animation Festival

This film had a bit of everything, a classic Max Fleischer ''Superman'' cartoon, music videos of Pink Floyd's ''One Of These Days'' and Cat Stevens ''Moonshadow'' some examples of very psychedelic advertising from the early 70's, some *great* claymation, early Bill Plympton, it was a great collection that turned a lot of Heads on back in Midnight Movie days of the late 70's. Years before ''Heavy Metal'' or ''Spike & Mike's Animation Festival'', we had this to compare with Ralph Bakshi's ''Heavy Traffic'', or Picha's ''Tarzoon'', and not a lot else, really. Independent animation was in a terrible state in the 70's. This film shows some of its' highest points.
