Description In a late 1960's San Francisco, low-rent bachelor pad instead of a 'pea-green boat' the unlikely duo in this hysterical comedy are certainly at sea!
'The Owl' is a wannabe intellectual author - the evidence is the number of rejection slips he's received - while 'the Pussycat' is a wannabe actress and model - however, to pay the bills she entertains gentleman callers.
Having accidentally noticed the traffic at her apartment through his binoculars, the owl did his civic duty by informing her landlord. So now the pussycat has nowhere to spend the night!
