This Kid,
Alex Wolff- whoa. When you're acting and the audience forgets you're acting this is your goal. You nailed it. It's hard and anxious I think but you're killing it seemingly effortlessly.
After viewing saw he wrote and directed.
Geeez.
Keep going.
Co-stars could do no wrong in this film.
Direction - editing is spot on.

No idea what all the hating is all about with these reviews. People offended by real life stuff?
None of these characters felt fake or contrived. The writing was good as well as some excellent performances. Watch it. It is very good work.

Let menjustvstart hy saying Alex Wolff is the brightest upcoming star working today.
There are several fake reviews on here trying to raise the overall rating of this movie but there is no need for this. This is what will turn more people off than on to what turned out to be one of the most amazing directorial debuts I have ever seen. "The Cat and the Moon" is a passion project if I ever saw one. Actor Alex Wolff treks into unfamiliar territory as writer/director AND actor to give us the truest and his most visionary take on his "back pocket" script. A great cast, great music, good locations and design, good direction..this movie is near perfect.. I am 29 years old but if I saw this movie when I was 18 it would have changed my life... Like the director, I am also a Scorpio and was born on Nov 2nd so I can fully feel where Wolff is coming from. It's like this movie was catered to me..His character reminds me of myself at that age. I can feeel his passion seeping through the screen. This is a deeply felt film from the heart and it made me, A grown man, cry through out. I have never quite seen anything like it. I grew up in a similar way to Nick.. I can relate with some of his emotions.. I had a very similar type of friend group and just so much of it hit home for me. I give Alex Wolff a lot of credit for stepping up and making this movie happen. He is young but clearly has the drive. He is handsome, very talented and fun to watch and he is going to blossom into an even more unique artist as time goes on. This movie isn't for everyone but once it truly finds its audience it will shine bright like the city lights.

I love the entire cast in this film. Reminds me of films with great ensemble casts like American Pie. Alex is incredible in this and he's a star to watch for sure. He's got a Pacino-esq quality.
When it first started I didn't know what to expect. The emotional depth explored in this movie is magical. It has hints of some of the best New York directors. There were so many great parts of this movie I could rewatch a thousand times. I highly recommend you watch it and experience something absolutely unique. Spectacular.

- TriviaGetting the film financed was the hardest task of any in its creation, according to director Wolff. He recalled in several interviews how, in spite of his long career in acting and music, numerous people in the film industry were not even interested in hearing about his movie. His advice to young filmmakers has been to never give up, and never believe they can't succeed in making a movie.
