Walken Around The Christmas Tree
He's a real pet lover... "We have domesticated many animals, but cats seem to have retained a sense of the forest. Their cleanliness is famous. They have grace in so many ways. From the tintinnabulation of their walk, to the way they tend to leave a small amount of food in the bottom of their bowl in what looks to me like an offering. Their self assurance and ability to articulate their needs to us with such clarity and insistence. They pose for us as naturally as Garbo because they are entitled to." -- Christopher Walken

Walk on the Wild Side
THE CATS MEOW: THE CATS THE STAR
A melodrama staring Jane Fonda among others. The most interesting part of the film is the opening title sequence, (by Saul Bass), where a black tom strolls nonchalantly around before picking a fight with a white cat. The slow tracking shots serve to emphasize the grace and majesty of the cat, which is shockingly juxtaposed with the viciousness and brutality of the fight, revealing the cat as a the truly wild animal it really is, as opposed to the pet we would like to believe we own.

Location: The Doll House, a 1930's New Orleans bordello.

Despite Walk on the Wild Side's scandalous story, the film adaptation's title song has become something of a gospel standard.
