It’s been quite a year for Latvian animator Gints Zilbalodis and Cat, the star of Flow.
Their film won an Oscar for best animated feature film, racked up wins at the Golden Globes and smaller film festivals, became the most-watched film in Latvian history, snuggled its way into the hearts of audiences in the US, Europe and Asia, and enjoys incredibly rare universal accolades from critics and viewers alike, scoring 97 and 98 percent with each group respectively on film review site Rotten Tomatoes.
Now Cat has officially recognized his Oscar by doing precisely what his species loves to do. In a short video posted by Zilbalodis, Cat smacks the golden statue off the railing of his boat and onto the deck, to the annoyance of his lemur buddy.
Congratulations, Gints and Cat!

I don’t have a DVD player anymore, but I’m thinking of grabbing one of the t-shirts. It’s just Cat with a derpy look, perfect.

When i read that some people who watched Flow that it will stay with you for awhile i thought ok. It is just a movie. They were right. It does stay with you awhile. Just like Grave Of The Fireflies.Takes place in WW 2. I saw Flow as a movie about climate change and other things. Other movie is what war does to children. Much like today. Nothing has changed.

I’m sure it’s not very tasty and not a good toy. Why would Cat want it?

Good point. It has little value besides slapping it off flat surfaces!
