Fluffy

About This Movie

So, 'Fluffy' is this quirky little comedy from 1965 that dives into the absurdity of animal domestication. The pacing is a bit erratic, which somehow adds to its charm. The premise—a college professor trying to tame an African lion—creates this mix of tension and hilarity. You really get the feeling of the era with the practical effects; they didn't hold back in showcasing the lion. The performances are pretty spirited, especially the professor's over-the-top enthusiasm. It’s one of those films that captures the zeitgeist of the '60s, where everything seems a bit wacky but somehow endearing. Not a lot of people talk about it, which makes it a nice little gem for collectors who appreciate the oddities of the era.

This film has seen limited releases over the years, and finding a good quality print can be quite the hunt. Its scarcity adds to its allure among collectors. Many vinyl and DVD editions exist, but they often come with varying quality, so watch out for that. 'Fluffy' is a nice conversation piece for anyone who enjoys off-beat comedies and the eccentricities of 1960s cinema.
