Cats Don’t Dance (1997)
An allegory for racial discrimination and lack of representation in media, Cats Don’t Dance is an underrated cartoon musical made by Warner Brothers. The story is about a young, poor, naive cat named Danny who moves to Hollywood to fulfill his dream of becoming a star, only to realize that animals aren’t given the same treatment as humans are, and his idol Darla Dimple isn’t what she seems. Filled with innocent humour, supreme colouring, and stunning musical numbers, Cats Don’t Dance unfortunately premiered at the same time as Hercules, forever making it an underappreciated movie.

Turner Entertainment’s Cats Don’t Dance
What the hell I watch this thing and now it’s all over the joint.
I can’t stop watching Cats Don’t Dance.
I’d never seen it before yesterday and damned if it isn’t some of the slickest animation I’ve seen in a good long while.
Not the best film ever, granted (pacing problems, not enough character development as I’d like and EGADS would it kill them to turn off the backing track for two minutes?), but it’s so quirky and fun and by golly would you look at those character designs, colour schemes and backgrounds.
Danny’s persistent lack of teeth and brainlessly cheerful gawping does get on my rag though.
