screen pioneer G A Smith had a similar, slightly more nuanced idea, and filmed The Sick Kitten ? a sweet clip in which two
young children tend to their purring patient by providing it with a <a href="https://www.pinterest.co.kr/hwayeong0543/"

Feline-favouring filmmakers
As filmmaking began to evolve in the post-war period, so too <a href="https://rlwek2387.tistory.com/130" target="_blank">¼º°øȸ
´ëÆ÷ÀåÀÌ»ç</a><br /> did its portrayal of cats, with French director Jean Vigo¡¯s pioneering 1934 film L¡¯Atalante showing off a
sea-faring group of felines belonging to Michel Simon¡¯s eccentric bargeman Pere Jules. In one scene, a kitten clings to his
shoulder as Pere dances on the end of the pier wildly, while playing his accordion to welcome newlyweds Jean and Juliette
to his boat.
Vigo was a precursor to the French New Wave directors and fellow cat lovers Agnes Varda and Chris Marker, who would
frequently feature felines in their work. While in Blake Edwards¡¯ 1961 romantic classic Breakfast at Tiffany¡¯s, Holly Golightly
has the ¡°poor slob¡± known only as Cat for company, Cleo Victoire in Varda¡¯s Cleo from 5 to 7 (1962) lives in a plush apartment
with an <a href="https://baedalsm.tistory.com/24" target="_blank">¼ºµ¿±¸¿ø·ëÀÌ»ç</a><br /> assortment of free-roaming
kittens, evoking the image of free-spirited actress Sylvia in Federico Fellini¡¯s La Dolce Vita (1960), cavorting with a tiny white
kitten near the Trevi fountain in Rome. These lonely, creative souls find companionship in the form of their feline friends ? not
quite as needy as dogs, but infinitely less judgemental than humans. |
