Interesteg What makes it different from others?
Konterr Brilliant and touching
Matrixiole Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.
Brenda The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one
datautisticgamer-74853 My aunt requested that we view this film today. After the dissatisfaction I had with One Hundred and One Dalmatians not too long ago, I was concerned that Disney wouldn't actually have an abundance of stand-out titles during its supposed Golden Age. So why is this my favorite of that era?The animation doesn't just capture a small town in New England pristinely from a dog's perspective: it incorporates textures such as mud that look surprisingly more real than even some modern CGI depictions of mud. That, coupled with the spot on character designs and environments, makes this what I consider landmark for Disney in the 1950s. I was genuinely pleased at how Lady isn't actually pompous despite having been realistically spoiled for most of her youth, as well as going through what I imagine a lot of strays (like my own dog Albert once was) endure prior to their arrival at the infamous pounds. I wasn't too drawn in by Tramp's more rebellious nature, but it soon dawned that considering what lied across this movie, he indeed knew what was best, and that is a sign of noble story writing. I also felt a bit of sympathy for Aunt Sarah for not knowing Si and Am's malicious nature and for not initially understanding the circumstances as to why Jim Jr.'s crib collapsed. I really liked Bella Notte, and I felt a bit emotional during the pound singing; it reminded me of why the pound just isn't a place for dogs to be. The story has masterful humor and more effective appeal to dog lovers (at least, I find) than the films before it and most certainly after. It's real refreshing considering modern Disney believes that the main appeal to dog lovers comes from making MORE. BUDDIES. MOVIES. But alas, I found the story top tier overall.If you like animation, Disney, dogs, or 50s films, you will find something pleasing about viewing this film. For anyone else, please do go see it. I cannot imagine another Disney movie so far being as appealing to those who like dogs as this, so do view it at some point.
Vimacone Many Disney features are adaptations of previously existing stories. Lady and the Tramp was the first Disney feature to be based on an original story. Like Peter Pan and Alice In Wonderland, this was one of the projects shelved and then resumed due to WWII. Like many of the best Disney and MGM shorts featuring house pets made years prior, this is told and animated from the dog's perspective. The audience only sees a few glimpses of the human characters, and we're unsure of their actual names. The main heroine Lady and the hero Tramp are an unlikely match as they come from opposite backgrounds, but circumstances bring them together for a romantic adventure. I like how the dog's characters (and in some cases dialects) are defined by their breeds (i.e. Jock the Scottish terrier having a Scottish accent and feisty personality). Surprisingly, this film has still maintained its status as a beloved classic despite ethnic stereotypes of Asians, Italians, Irish, etc. These kind of elements, Disney and other media have otherwise tried to censor. I wonder how the features in the Disney animated canon with controversial sequences have largely remained available and well publicized. I like how the setting is at the turn of the last century, likely within the collective memory at the time of release. The film doesn't specifically state when, but I would say early 1910's, as there mostly horse carriages, but a few cars. As far as post-war features, this is generally considered to be one of the best. The spaghetti scene is one of the most iconic scenes in cinema. There are three nicely executed climatic scenes, two of them back to back at the end of the film. I still have fond recollections of when I first saw it some 25 years ago as a small child.
Kirpianuscus and the good thing is the less chance to say why. maybe for the inspired art of ... translation. because it is a fable and inspired remember of basic tools of romanticism. because it is one of charming stories becoming testimony about sensibility of a period and precious legacy. because it is a beautiful explanation of the source of seduction for Disney universe. and because it is more real than reality itself. the scene from bistro is the most useful argument.so, out of all, a great, great film. this is all.
Terryfan I grew up with this wonderful film. This is one of my most favorite movies not from Disney or that it's animated but one of my favorite films in general.This film just only gets better with age no matter how many times you watch this film it just gets better. It just still holds upDisney really hit a home run with Lady and the Tramp and many who watch this film grew up with Dogs and love this film it not that you have to be a dog lover to enjoy this film you can enjoy it for just being a wonderful well written, perfectly hand drawn and great story telling. It just a wonderful film all together Lady And The Tramp is just one of those rare amazing Disney films that holds up ever more so What makes Lady and the Tramp special is that the animators kept the focus on the dogs through out the whole film the film was seen from the dog's point of view and the camera stays on the ground level with the dogs now that's amazing for this motion picture My top three favorite scenes in Lady and the Tramp are the "We are Siamese" song from the cats, the Spaghetti and meatballs scene where Lady and the Tramp created one of the most iconic moments in both Disney and Motion Picture history and the battle between Tramp and The Rat is one scene that has stuck with me since I was a kid because how well animated that fight was and to this day remains a impressive climax. It just goes to show how well the animation is still holds up as the fight is surrounded in darkness and lighting effect with thunder clashWith a great performance from the voice work it just still impressive with the voice talents they pick for this film, The music is beautiful along with the songs that were written for this film the music department did a wonderful job and the music help told the story for Lady and The Tramp. The Animation is just beautiful all attention went into making this a wonderful well hand drawn animation with the background being amazing and the character movements show case how superb hand drawn animation is still impressiveTrust me you must watch Lady and The Tramp the film remains great and still remains one of the best films from childhoodI give Lady and the Tramp a perfect 10 out of 10
