Filthy Rich & Catflap

About This Movie

Filthy Rich & Catflap is this quirky little gem from '87 that dives into the absurd lives of a bunch of down-and-out misfits. The tone is irreverent, often pushing the boundaries of comedy with its satirical take on fame and failure. You’ve got the washed-up actor, the morally flexible agent, and the bodyguard whose main skill seems to be staying inebriated. The pacing is a bit all over the place, which oddly fits the chaotic vibe of their world. The performances, especially the dynamic between the leads, are pretty entertaining, really capturing the desperation mixed with humor. It’s not your typical comedy; it’s more about these oddball characters fumbling through their mess of a life, and there’s something refreshingly raw about that.
