The Curse of the Cat People (1944)
Lewton Masterpiece
28 November 2019 - 2 out of 3 users found this review helpful.
I recently discovered that this movie was deeply personal work of Lewton. The magical postal reference is taken directly from a crucial childhood incident in Val's life. Val said that he bled each and every page of this story. If you want to know Val Lewton, then watch Curse of the Cat People. In addition to being an absolute masterpiece it was done on a shoestring budget.

Youth Runs Wild (1944)
Val Lewton film in name only

Fearing the US State Department the executives at RKO edited Val's work until it no longer resembled a Lewton production. They kept Val's name in the credits to attract patrons. I don't consider this a Val Lewton movie.
