Presented by Tommy Stathes with live music by Donald Sosin   

While cats may be a ubiquitous entity in today's social media landscape, their popularity in screen entertainment is no recent phenomenon. Through printed comics and animated cartoons, cats became wildly popular in entertainment more than a century ago. In this presentation of rare archival 16mm prints from the collection of animation historian Tommy José Stathes, feline cartoon superstars of the 1910s through the 1930s—such as Felix the Cat, Krazy Kat, and a host of other lesser-knowns—will be shown. Program duration: 90 minutes.
