AI notes: Cat's Eye (1985) is a horror anthology film directed by Lewis Teague and written by Stephen King, featuring three interlinked stories connected by a stray cat. The segments include "Quitters, Inc.," where a man faces extreme methods to quit smoking; "The Ledge," involving a gambler forced to walk a building's narrow ledge by a vengeful mobster; and "General," in which the cat protects a young girl (played by Drew Barrymore) from a deadly troll. Blending suspense, dark humor, and supernatural elements, the film showcases King's signature storytelling and has become a cult favorite among fans.
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
The Village Voice was an American counterculture newspaper known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. It introduced free-form, high-spirited, and passionate journalism into the public discourse - a tradition it maintained throughout its 60+ year history. It is quite common to find great political cartoons, satirical cartoons and articles, thought-provoking editorials, and ads and reviews for both concerts and theater productions - both on and off Broadway. Many iconic writers and musicians credit their appearance in The Village Voice for at least a portion of their success.
