the cat cgi and possible cat abuse turned me off to this in the trailers.

same. i'm waiting for Does The Dog Die to say if it survives or not. godsend of a site.

I saw Inside llewyn davis with my dad and I was so mad he abandoned the ginger cat in the car. (true he abandoned that drunk guy too but I cared more about the fate of the cat)

i'm worse: i thought john goodman's character was already dead, so at least the cat had some food rofl. kind of a victimless crime with the impossible choice llewyn had to make. this way kept the cat from running around a dangerous highway at least.

though i must have erased from my mind that llewyn later HITS the cat while driving home. i only give them some slack because story-wise they're drawing a parallel to llewyn's character having shitty luck at every turn.

still, it's a stressful movie to experience as an animal lover! so many kitties in peril. i appreciated that llewyn at least tried to save the cat at first.

Wait I thought he was hallucinating the cat 🐱 that he hit. Maybe I misunderstood the scene.

[evenstarnikki]

no, that's totally possible! either way, sad to think of any kitties wandering off to die in the woods.
