About this event
MoMI presents four restored Felix the Cat cartoons from 1927–28. Watch Felix travel to the bottom of the sea to source a string of pearls (only to be chased out by the angry mother oyster), fashion a straw out of a yard of stolen pasta, attempt to court Juliet (as Romeow) while dueling another suitor and a group of musical animals, and, after a failed outing to the cinema, make his own movie, capturing some unintended mischief.
