disgusting, overrated, pointless
I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
My wife and I watched this at home on BluRay from our public library. The picture and sound are flawless and there are a couple of worthwhile extras.I have been watching movies for a long, long time. I obviously was aware of this one, I had seen a few clips of certain scenes over the years, but had never actually watched it ... until last night.A young couple get the puppy they call Lady, actually the man gives it to his wife as a gift. Lady is a fine and obedient pet, all is well. Until the wife gets pregnant and Lady feels somewhat ignored. And outside she meets other dogs, including the charming mutt named Tramp.Through all this a mean aunt with two Siamese cats comes to sit for the new baby when the parents go out of town for a few days. Things get out of hand, and eventually Tramp has to come to the rescue. All's well that ends well and that is how this story is resolved.We have gotten so accustomed to digital animation I had forgotten how good traditional animation can look when done right. This one definitely was done right.
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.
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.
Lady the spaniel has an idyllic life. And then her people have a baby and she is made to look guilty of destruction by the sneaky Siamese cats belonging to the babysitting aunt. After being muzzled she runs away and falls in with Tramp, a devil-may-care mongrel of no fixed abode. And so her adventures begin.Disney's 15th animated feature was original material rather than an adaptation. There is, as usual, much to like here, especially Peggy Lee's songs. Tramp is a lovable rogue, there are some entertaining set pieces, and the film as a whole has a good deal of charm. If there is a criticism, it is that the ending is just a touch glib and obvious.
