Cats on Film: In Black & White (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781978038745)

This is the budget version of CATS ON FILM, with black and white photos instead of colour ones.

What is a Catguffin? Why should you be wary of a Catzilla? What is the difference between a Catagonist and a Heropuss? Who or what is a Modesty Cat, and why does The Third Man have such problems with kitten continuity?

All these questions and many others are answered in CATS ON FILM, the definitive work of feline film scholarship, in which critic and novelist Anne Billson explores the many and varied narrative functions of cats by examining their appearances in one hundred films, from blockbusters to art films, foreign films to cult oddities, rom-coms to horror movies.

Meet Clovis, Ulysses, Jezebel, Pyewacket, Pumpkin and a clowder of other celebrated film felines, learn how the White Cat of Evil launched his career as Blofeld's lapcat in the James Bond franchise, and thrill to My Day By Jones, in which the cat's eye view of Alien is finally revealed.

CATS ON FILM. No cat-loving film fan can afford to be without it.
