FELIX IN HOLLYWOOD (1923) - ♦♦♦♦

Directed by - Otto Messmer

Written by - Otto Messmer (based on a character by Pat Sullivan)

"A starving actor goes to Hollywood in search of fame and fortune, but when his cat comes along posing as his travel bag, he takes centre stage. A cute and witty early silent animation film, Felix in Hollywood is considered as a landmark work for the genre due to its great sense of humour and technique. It is also interesting to see it borrow some elements and figures from the popular culture of the early part of the twentieth century."
