Puss in Boots

Movie Summary

Released: 1988
Before he was a swashbuckling sensation in Shrek 2, Puss in Boots was already one of the most popular storybook characters of all time, thanks to his sly schemes and fearless bravado. Screen legend Christopher Walken (Catch Me If You Can) steps into the wily feline's magical boots in this exciting live-action version of the classic Brothers Grimm fairy tale, complete with singing, dancing and acrobatics!

A dying mill owner divides his meager wealth among his sons, leaving only his beloved cat, Puss (Walken), to his youngest son Corin (Jason Connery). Initially disappointed with his four-legged bounty, Corin soon discovers that Puss is no average kitty. In fact, the cat's a brilliant strategist who concocts a daring plan to win both the king's favor – and the princess' heart – for his new master!

"Puss In Boots" has been my most favorite Grimm fairy tale ever. But, lol, I would've never imagined Christopher Walken, of all of Hollywood's thespian elite, taking on a role like this! I've never seen this adaption, but I could imagine how Walken would've carried out his role. He'd probably start kvetching, like a Yiddish papa to his son, about his master's poor sense of fashion and lack of optimism. Then later on in the movie, while devising a plot to get the ogre's attention, he finds a COWBELL and brings it to his master...OK, by now, you probably already know where I was going with that. Obviously, I was alluding to that hilarious SNL sketch where Walken played a record producer overseeing a recording session for Blue Öyster Cult. I will say this, though: I'm sure it's a fine rendition of "Puss", and if I ever come across it in the local video shop, I'll give it a try.
