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.
WALK ON THE WILD SIDE (1962) Tom cat title sequences
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.
