When the Cat Comes is a quirky blend of comedy and fantasy, effortlessly transporting you into an enchanting world. The film unfolds through Oliva's whimsical storytelling, bringing to life his sailor days with a charmingly eccentric twist. The arrival of a peculiar circus adds a layer of intrigue that feels almost dreamlike. The practical effects, particularly the cat with sunglasses, are delightfully imaginative and evoke a sense of nostalgia. It’s a slow-burn kind of film, where the pacing allows you to soak in the rich atmosphere and the oddball characters that populate Oliva’s tale. The performances have a certain earnestness that carries the film's quirky spirit, making it a unique entry from the era that stands apart from more conventional offerings.
This film is somewhat of a rarity, with limited circulation since its release. It has seen a few home video formats over the years, but finding a decent copy can be a challenge. Collector interest has been steadily increasing, especially among those who appreciate offbeat gems from the 60s. Its unique blend of storytelling and distinct visual charm makes it a curious piece for fans of vintage cinema.
