HOLLI WOULD IF SHE COULD....AND SHE WILL
The fantasy adventure from Ralph Bakshi, director-animator of Fritz The Cat and Wizards.
When ex-con cartoonist Jack Deebs (Gabriel Byrne) was behind bars, he found escape by creating Cool World, a cartoon series featuring a voluptuous vixen named Holli Would. But the 'toonsmith becomes a prisoner of his own fantasies when Holli pulls Jack into Cool World with a scheme to seduce him and brings herself to life. A hard-boiled detective (Brad Pitt) - the only other human in Cool World - cautions Jack with the law: 'Noids (humans) don't have sex with doodles (cartoons). The flesh proves weaker than ink however, as Holli takes human form (Kim Basinger) in Las Vegas, starting a trans-universal chase that threatens the destruction of both worlds. With a splashy mix of animation and live-action sequences, Cool World delivers the hottest action around.
