Good Times: Dominik Graf on Directing The Cat
Two robbers hold up a bank and its employees demanding 3 million marks for their ransom. The police plot to storm the bank but are unaware the robbers have an accomplice on the outside, anticipating their every move. Genre master Dominik Graf specialised in crime films and The Cat is one of his greatest. A heist film of the highest order, it grabs you from its opening scenes and doesn’t let go. In this interview, director Graf chronicles the genesis of THE CAT (Die Katze, 1988) in great detail and with the same amount of passion that infuses his movies.
