Viewing Notes

Bizarre flick about a magic cat that arrives in a small town with a traveling magic show. Feels like a live action adaptation of a Dr. Seuss story melded with the tone of Disney absurd family comedies from the sixties. Kinda like a mellow drug trip, very psychedelic. Curious which audience this was made for bc it’s not really a kids flick but probably too silly for adults.
