The film creates a special twist with a rewriting of the character of Velda from the classic film noir, "Kiss Me Deadly". She becomes an animated character with a sexual, cultural identity finding rescue from the didactic figure drawing style that fits the 50's mood of the drinking, babe/buddy, car culture and her relationship with the cool detective Mike Hammer.
