American Pop

The richness of the American Experience and the vibrancy of American music combine in this saga of four generations of a family, and the evolution of the popular song from ragtime to punk rock. This ambitious classic of animation from Ralph Bakshi begins with the story of a boy's flight from the pogroms of Russia to his rise to stardom in the world of burlesque and speakeasys. But the journey of this extraordinary family has only begun. Through the time and events of this century, four men will live through triumph and tragedy, war and rebellion, love and loss... all played to the unique and ever changing sound of AMERICAN POP.
