Cats 2019
I refuse to admit the number of times I watched this film over the course of COVID lockdown. You can’t prove it and I won’t say. But tonight was the first time I’ve borne witness to its majesty in at least three years, and Jesus tapdancing Christ it did not disappoint.

Co-creators David Lynch and Mark Frost pulled on well-worn tropes from soap operas, whodunits, and many other television archetypes to create something entirely new. Its blend of a surreal, dreamlike tone, horror, and an abundance of warmth and comedy turned this oddball little murder mystery into a titan.
