Today I went to the National Film Board. I made a mouse out of clay. I hung the mouse on a hook and then I watched it go up and down. The mouse was filmed. Then I watched a film on DVD. After that I had lunch. For lunch I had a grilled cheese sandwitch, a banana, an apple, and a cookie. Then I went on the elevator. There was a buzzing noise when the elevator door was closing. I saw a movie in the movie theatre about a cat.

Was it Cordell Barker’s ‘The Cat Came Back’ ?
If it was, aces! If it wasn’t, you should see it!

After a bit of prodding (Jon is strangely reticent about telling us about his field trips) he admitted that yes, it was the Cat Came Back. He said he liked it, but wasn’t interested in seeing it again on YouTube. (Though I wouldn’t be surprised if it became a favourite later on; sometimes it takes a while for him to digest a new movie.)

It didn’t take long—this afternoon he watched The Cat Came Back at least twice through. I’m guessing he’ll be wanting it for his movies folder soon…

The Cat Came Back!!! 🙂 That’s a classic… Brent Little and I watched that at the Bloor Cinema animation festival about 20 years ago… and we talked about it for YEARS afterwards! hehe
In addition to youtube, Jon can also watch it at the NFB site: http://www.nfb.ca/film/the-cat-came-back/ (in addition to other NFB films)
