The best of a show with seemingly diminishing returns
Thank god for this episode in a series which seems to have been reduced to an animation showcase that offers little more than puerile toilet humour and gore. Love + Death + Robots used to have something to say, but not anymore it seems bar this episode. Not since Felidae's Francis, to which along with T. S. Elliot this may owe a debt, have I been so interested in the adventures of a cat, it is of course in part down to the chamber music fitting for the period in which it's set, but also a sort of authenticity that feels like it is borrowed from sort of historic cautionary tale. It is both very odd and very good, strangely enough the illustration and animation style is the least showcasey of the lot, but not inappropriate. I would like to watch more of Goeffrey's adventure's.
