Trivia:
Michel Legrand was originally hired to compose the musical score for the film. He composed his score in Paris in May 1973 and recorded a little over twenty minutes of it in Hollywood the following month, whereupon director Richard C. Sarafian and studio executives James Aubrey and Daniel Melnick informed Legrand that his score was not what they felt the film needed and that he was being dismissed.

John Wayne, Clint Eastwood, Humphry Bogart, James Coburn, Lee Marvin, Sean Connery, Harrison Ford -- well maybe not Harrison Ford -- created unique male personas on film and Burt Reynolds joins them. Cat Dancing is a 70's road film on horseback and Reynolds' performance shines with personal subtlety among other luminaries including Jack Warden, George Hamilton, Lee J. Cobb, and Jay Silverheels (AKA Tonto). The story line is not predictable and angst threads through the script. True love, what is it? The answer rolls down from the screen in Cat Dancing while Burt bites the dust and recovers. The Western by the 1970's was fading, but Cat Dancing proves the genre can be fresh in any decade.
