Celebrating Cats in Movies and Television.

Deported (1950)

May 5, 2022

Directed by: Robert Siodmak

Synopsis: Vic Smith (Jeff Chandler) is an American gangster deported to Italy where he gets involved in crime and falls for a Countess (Märta Torén).

Purr Blur: In one scene a woman named Gina (Marina Berti) is following Vic through the streets. She passes very close to a tuxedo cat who amazingly does not even bother moving from its spot!
