Ralph Bakshi @ Alamo Drafthouse 1/18/09 (Part 1)

Introducing Bakshi + Bakshi Introduces Wizards

On 1/18/09, Ralph Bakshi was the guest of honor at a double feature of his films Wizards & Coonskin (aka Streetfight), as part of the Celebrity Guests Signature Series at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, TX. This was a rare chance for Bakshi's fans to meet the master of animation face to face.

From a personal perspective, I have admired Bakshi's work since I was 9 years old, when I saw Wizards in 1985. It was a particularly exciting event for myself, finally getting to meet the man after 23 years of enjoying his work.

This video takes place before the screening of Wizards began.
