The Cat
DirectorPierre Granier-Deferre
“A love/hate so devastating it destroys everything...the marriage, the wife, the husband, the house...even the cat”
Julien Bouin, a former typographist, and his wife Clemence, who used to perform in a circus, hardly talk to each other in their small house, soon to be demolished. His cat Greffier being the only one he still gives affection to, he becomes the object of Clemence's anger.
