…I naturally think of (a) Miriam Karlin‘s “Catlady” Weathers (green leotard, white stockings, razor-sharp vocal chords) in A Clockwork Orange and (b) Edith Beale and her daughter in Albert and David Maysles‘ Grey Gardens
I personally relate as I’ve been a cat lover all my life.
J.D. Vance quote from 2021: “The U.S. is being run by a bunch of childless cat ladies who are miserable at their own lives and the choices that they’ve made and so they want to make the rest of the country miserable, too. It’s just a basic fact — you look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, AOC — the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children.”
