An exciting movie. About love and succeeding in getting up that everything seems to be lost

Not quite, though both stories are about a man with an orange cat. This is about a younger man, who doesn't hit the road, and instead is a recovering drug addict in continuous danger of falling off the wagon. But when a stray orange cat enters the apartment he had been sequestered in, he finds a reason to live again. Indeed, having the cat around makes him more attractive to people, whom he normally has trouble dealing with.This movie does not degenerate into schmaltz. He meets a young female neighbor, but they stay friends and not lovers. Only his father has feelings for him; he is still estranged from his other relatives. A friend who is also drug addict ends up dying from his habit. The cat himself causes trouble by running off at the wrong times.In the end, though, the story of the cat eventually becomes a bestselling book for him, so he no longer has to make a living by panhandling. This might seem like a Hollywood ending, except that this story is all true. Recommended, especially if you're a cat person.

A beautifully told true-life tale of humanity- hope, despair, rejection, helplessness, and love that will leave you greatly impacted. Without doubt one of the best films I've seen in a long time and also one of the most underrated. Everything from the acting, to the script, to the music was, in my opinion, far more Oscar worthy than what is currently presented as "the best." The beautiful and original songs alone should have picked up at least a nomination.

If ever there was a true story that was just destined to be turned into a movie, then this is surely it. 'A Street Cat Named Bob' is the story of the unlikely friendship between a recovering drug addict, James Bowen, and a stray ginger cat, who he named Bob. It's a heartwarming story and a film that can be enjoyed by everyone, not just cat lovers.The film deserves a lot of credit for ensuring that James' battle with addiction always remains at the forefront of what happens on screen. They could have easily got carried away with Bob the cat and neglected to include the harsh realities of James' situation, but thankfully they didn't make that mistake and the film is a lot better for it.'A Street Cat Named Bob' is the perfect feel good film, despite some depressing themes. It's the type of story that just has to be heard, and now it's been turned into a movie, even more people can enjoy this amazing friendship.
