Citations sur Cat Food [en anglais]

« In Catfood [Joyce Wieland] shows a cat devouring fish after fish for some ten minutes. There seems to be no repetition of shots, but the imagery is so consistent throughout—shot of the fish, the cat eating, his paw clawing, another fish, the cat eating, etc.—that it is just possible that shots are recurrent. »
-- P. Adams Sitney (source)

« Every Friday Joyce Wieland makes Dwight Eisenhower a fish dinner and photographs him while he eats it. Dwight doesn't object. That's because he's Miss Wieland's pet cat and star of her latest 15-minute film‐a serious study of a cat eating a fish. »
