Funny, fun and also relentless in holding responsible those who would tap-dance over the corpses of the inconvenient, this is an absolute gem.

Bogdanovich ruefully links the allure of classic Hollywood and the ruthlessness of its potentates.

| Feb 22, 2021

While it may be slow, it is lifted by the playwright's attention to atmosphere, the script and the obligatory charleston.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Dec 21, 2020

The Cat's Meow is a spiky, if unexciting return to form for Bogdanovich.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Apr 18, 2019

...a missed opportunity that's rarely as engrossing or intriguing as its premise might have indicated.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 7, 2011

It's good to see Peter Bogdanovich working again, but his Hollywood tale feels like a minor, trashy 온라인카지노추천 melodrama

| Original Score: C+ | May 3, 2011

This story about a possible murder isn't for kids.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 28, 2010

The strongest achievement of The Cat's Meow may be the performances, especially those of Kirsten Dunst (Davies), Edward Herrmann (Hearst), and even Eddie Izzard (Chaplin).

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Oct 15, 2009

Though The Cat's Meow just sorta comes to a so-what ending and stops short, the getting there is delicious.

| Nov 19, 2008

The '20s-set pic is given considerable bounce by a splendid cast, led by Kirsten Dunst in an eye-opening perf as Marion Davies.

| Original Score: 4/5 | Dec 7, 2007

Featherweight but fun.

I thought this was an incredible cast and I thought they were all fantastic at bringing their characters to life.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Sep 30, 2005

| Original Score: C+ | Aug 7, 2004

It''s still a tasty footnote in the chequered histories of both Chaplin -- rumoured to be Davies' secret lover -- and Hearst.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 3, 2004

Dunst gives us a bright, bubbly woman with comedic talent.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Jul 2, 2004

Notable mostly for Kirsten Dunst's superb portrayal of Marion Davies.

| Jun 4, 2004

The potential of this pure Hollywood Babylon story remains unrealised, instead playing out as half-baked Agatha Christie.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jun 4, 2004

The chemistry between the three leads is a cruel and perfect satire on celebrity love.

| Jun 2, 2004

Of particular interest if you're a fan of the seminal 1941 Orson Welles pic, Citizen Kane . . .
