Guttenberg is stabbed while on the phone with Olivier in Boys From Brazil and we believe him. In Cocoon and Short Circuit, he is ebullient, almost to a fault. So which is PS Your Cat Is Dead? Guttenberg as Actor-Director shows his strengths as a mature, light handed artist. We expect to see the actor at work behind the mask, or the Director favor himself too much on camera, but no - the grubby, self absorbed attitude of the character draws us into the narrative and we believe it. This film will do very well among quality film buffs especially in San Francisco, New York and West Los Angeles. I'm sure it will take off in Paris and Berlin. It's a personal ride, executed with dignity in a tight plausible style. It's easy to sneer at stars doing something smaller and limited, but this one has authored a film that carries itself and does none of the performers anything but good.
