Les Chats Ninjas

Funnily enough, this film is not in the lineup for next month's Toronto International Film Festival. At least, not yet.

Seven PsychoCATS (Get it?)

As the owner of three cats, I find this mildly amusing parody absolutely irresistible. But I must admit: The uncensored version is a lot funnier.

A monent of zen while viewing an existential cat

There are times when I watch a short as clever as this one -- winner of the Golden Kitty Award at the Internet Cat Film Festival hosted by the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis -- and I can't help thinking: Next year, or the year after that, I'm probably going to be reviewing the first feature by the same director.

Meow Movies

Would Casablanca have been an ever better movie with the addition of Keyboard Cat? Did Taxi Driver really need a feline reponse to Travis Bickle? Well, maybe. (Thanks, and maybe some serious petting, to Movie Gal.)

Son of Cats That Look Like Hitler

Four years after my shocking blog post... another tale of a feline that resembles Der Führer .

What's nude, pussycat?

Being a cat owner, I have no trouble at all believing this alibi.

This Movie is About Cats Flying

Could you possibly get more high concept than this?

Hemingway's cats on the rampage

OK, I admit, there's not much of a movie connection here. Well, not unless you count the fact that Ernest Hemingway wrote To Have and Have Not and A Farewell to Arms while living in the Key West abode (now preserved as a museum) that has become a haven for "Ivan, an orange tomcat born in 2004, the year Hurricane Ivan killed dozens of people in the Caribbean and the USA. According to [neighbor Debbie] Schultz, Ivan the cat wreaks another type of havoc on the cat population outside the museum wall...

"'I saw Ivan many times loose,' she says. 'Ivan is a very unneutered, very macho male cat, and in each case, he had one of the street cats pinned down,' she says."

Maybe Ms. Schultz would not be so upset if Ivan took a more romantic approach while tomcatting around.
