CinemaSerf:
In the vein of the “Snowman” from 1982, this colourful and lively short feature from Channel Four takes a look at just how the “Thomas” family prepare for the big day whilst their cat looks on neglected and bemused. As the extended family all assemble, “Mog” isn’t getting his usual amount of attention so he takes refuge outside. When the Christmas tree starts to do it’s own scene from the Scottish play that’s the last straw! Sanctuary from all of this madness is sought on the roof where some white stuff falls on its nose. “Oh, for my basket and a boiled egg!” - but how to get down. If you like cats then you will probably love this. I don’t especially but it does still resonate as a reminder that sometimes we all get so caught up in the paraphernalia of December 25th that maybe we forget to make sure everyone in included in the self-inflicted mayhem as it carries us away in tradition, gifts and old aunties. It’s neatly drawn with a few comic moments and there’s even a cat sat on the mat style of ditty from Sophie Ellis Bextor, too!
