I don't know what it is with Australia, but it's about 70% harder to find anything that isn't mainstream popular than it is in the States. Every time I go to the US I try to get all my weird fan stuff, but with a fandom like Cats it's hard. I only have the DVD, and I had to get that on eBay. Luckily, I actually got to see a live show a few years ago, and it was amazing. :) I'm only upset because a lot of people talk about 'behind the scenes' stuff on the DVD, which I don't have on mine :(

I don't even remember how I got introduced to Cats; I think I heard the song "Macavity the Mystery Cat" on an Andrew Lloyd Webber special and thought 'what's that?' only to end up watching the whole musical on Youtube. I promptly went insane about Cats and alienated all my more 'normal' friends. :p

Part of the graininess in most pictures is that the film was... filmed in 1998 AND on a stage, where the lighting is rarely prime for filming. If I want to find the best pictures it would have to be promo shots for productions, and even those are hard to find. :\

Random fact (I stole your idea): for an art project in Year 9 I took the mirror out of the lid of an old jewelry box, and painted a small canvas sheet with the backdrop from the musical (the moon, stars and clouds, youknow) and hotglued it in there. The canvas keeps falling out now, but even 3 years later I still have that box in my room. :)
