Episode 262: Interview with Pitof, Director of ‘Catwoman’ (2004)

TBU Podcast Network – The Batman Universe

In episode 262 of The Batman Universe Podcast, Scott interviews Pitof, director of the Halle Berry-led Catwoman film. This year marks the 20th anniversary of the iconic 2004 film, and this episode looks back at how the film’s reception has changed and evolved over the last 20 years. When it was originally released, the Catwoman movie was among the early films in the post-00s superhero film boom. At the time, it was critically panned, but as the superhero film market has expanded and a new audience has grown up with this genre of films, has the audience response changed? The answer is yes.

Listen in as Scott and Pitof discuss the changing landscape of superhero cinema, as well as hit on the distinctive style and original characterization (switching out Selina Kyle for Patience Phillips) that make the Catwoman movie a unique experience. It’s a great conversation, offering insights into the film-making, technique, and thought process behind a cat-centric action romp that takes our favorite jewel thief and anti-heroine out of Gotham and on an adventure of her own.

Rent or purchase the Catwoman movie on Amazon Prime, or pick up a copy on BluRay or DVD.
