	Yes.  The film was made by filming live action and drawing
	over the top of the resulting pictures.  This is just one
	more of Ralph Bakshi's innovative animation methods.

Innovative? Hardly. This technique, known as rotoscoping, has been
around for a long time. Disney used it in Snow White (1939), and i
don't know if that was the first use of the technique.
