Neko no Ongaesh (2002)
.jpg)
After helping a cat, a seventeen-year-old girl finds herself involuntarily engaged to a cat Prince in a magical world where her only hope of freedom lies with a dapper cat statuette come to life.
Wonderfully animated has fairy tale quality and is full of surprising and amusing sequences; enjoyable for kids and adults alike, and not just for cat lovers.

L'aîné des Ferchaux (1963)

Broke French ex-paratrooper turned amateur boxer Michel Maudet becomes bodyguard for the fugitive corrupt banker Ferchaux.
Odd French road movie, which is staged mostly in the USA, has elegantly construed narrative, it's nicely directed with two good lead performers, but the protagonists are quite disagreeable characters, so that one hardly develops any empathy for them.
