Kim Cattrall on ‘Meet Monica Velour’

The Takeaway

Kim Cattrall is perhaps most famous for her role as Samantha Jones on “Sex and the City.” But the accomplished stage and film actress has made memorable appearances everywhere from “The Simpsons” to London’s West End. Her newest project showcases even more of her range, though the subject may be similar to her most famous role.  “Meet Monica Velour,” which opens today in a limited release, follows the relationship between an aging 1970s porn star, played by Cattrall, and the teenage boy who’s obsessed with her.
   The film is written and directed by Keith Bearden. Both Kim and Keith join us in studio.
