Synopsis
The long-awaited film adaptation of the acclaimed novel and play by James Kirkwood (A CHORUS LINE) is here. It has been described by its Pulitzer Prize-winning author as "a marriage of MIDNIGHT COWBOY and THE ODD COUPLE".
Two desperate men, thrown together one New Year's Eve when their lives have crumbled, willing to kill each other, until they discover that each is the other's only salvation.
Actor-cum-fledgling writer Jimmy Zoole has lost it all this New Year's Eve. His girlfriend is seeing someone else. His groundbreaking yet ill-conceived one-man show has closed after one day. His best friend died a few short months ago. His soon-to-be-demolished apartment has been robbed twice. And now his beloved cat is dead. But Jimmy's downward spiral is just beginning. The aforementioned burglar has returned, and Jimmy's caught him. This New Year's Eve will be like no other, as Jimmy holds Eddie the burglar hostage for an emotionally charged, soul-searching, and often hilarious night.
P.S. YOUR CAT IS DEAD! marks the directorial debut of acclaimed actor Steve Guttenberg, who also produced, co-wrote the screenplay, and stars as the hapless Jimmy. Lombardo Boyar (GONE IN 60 SECONDS) stars as Eddie in a career-making performance. And Cynthia Watros of TV's TITUS is Kate, the 'girlfriend'. Rounding out the cast are veteran actors Shirley Knight (AS GOOD AS IT GETS) and Tom Wright (SEINFELD).
Described by Guttenberg as "an Offbeat Romance," P.S. YOUR CAT IS DEAD! is a wild game of wits between two men on the edge.
