Description

**THIS EPISODE CONTAINS FULL SPOILERS**On this episode of Film is Lit, we sink our claws into the 2023 thriller/horror/dark comedy "Cat Person," based on Kristen Roupenian’s viral 2017 short story from The New Yorker. Starring the singing sensation from "CODA" (Emilia Jones) and everyone’s favorite awkward giant from "Succession" (Nicholas Braun), "Cat Person" explores the murky gray areas of dating, power dynamics, and the stories we tell ourselves when red flags come waving. We break down whether this adaptation carries the same biting, uncanny commentary as the original story - or whether it stretches itself too thin by going full feature when maybe, just maybe, a short film would’ve sufficed. Is it a sharp look at modern dating, or just another mis-cat-culation (I'm sorry)?
