This is a little animation that Pixar has recently put out. It covers old ground… a little kitten and a tough dog become friends. It’s surprisingly touching, but it’s also touched with some surprising darkness and horrible things. The pitbull is mistreated (in a scene that you would think is a bit shocking in a Disney production until you remember all the horrible things that Disney keeps putting in all their movies) in the way you might expect out of Tijuanafied San Francisco. The kitten is the star of the show; it is shown going bonkers in just exactly the way that kittens do. And it displays fear in just the way that kittens do.
