Shinbone Alley (1970)


Allied Artists
Directed by John David Wilson
My rating: 2 stars out of 4
IMDb Wikipedia
(DVD, Image Entertainment)

A suicidal poet turns into a cockroach, then falls in love with a singing alley cat. She rejects him for a tomcat, only to get dumped herself. Next she takes up with the the owner of a Broadway theater who promises to make her a star. It looks like she might make it, until she has kittens and is summarily fired. Her old friend the cockroach convinces her to become a house cat and raise the kittens. An uneven mixture of musical, fantasy and drama, with some of the worst looking animation I can remember.
