Jimmy Zoole (Steve Guttenberg, also making his directing debut) has been having bad, bad day. Not only has his one-man version of Hamlet (performed with hand puppets) just tanked, his girlfriend has left him, his cat is gravely ill, and his unfinished novel has been stolen. Plus, it's New Year's Eve. So when Jimmy finds Eddie (Lombardo Boyar), a gay burglar, lurking in his apartment, he isn't exactly thrilled. On the verge of a major breakdown, he ties up Eddie and uses him as an outlet for his multitude of frustrations. Eddie, it turns out, has a few of his own, including an ex-wife who won't let him see his child. What follows is a New Year's celebration replete with party hats, rope, and some very, very deep emotional issues. Based on James Kirkwood's cult novel (Kirkwood also won a Pulitzer as the author of A Chorus Line), P.S. Your Cat is Dead was screened at the 2002 Philadelaphia Gay and Lesbian International Film Festival. Rebecca Flint Marx, Rovi

While I absolutely loved the book, I was majorly disappointed in the movie. Perhaps because--over the years since I'd read the book--my imagination made the events more memorable...and funnier. And while I'd give the book an A, I'm afraid I'd only give the movie a C-. and I really like Steve Guttenberg. Sometimes, books just aren't meant to be made into a movie, and I think this is one of them. Sometimes it takes those 1000 words to paint the picture because the picture just doesn't do the story justice. So...if you haven't read the book, I think the movie will be better. If you've read the book, I would NOT recommend seeing the movie. As I said, it was a major disappointment for me. But then, that could just be me, and you might totally enjoy it.
