Editorial Reviews:
Disney's first animated feature in CinemaScope is now available in widescreen presentations on video, and it is definitely good to get the whole picture. One of the studio's most original and charming movies, the 1955 film tells the story of a rakish, street-smart dog named Tramp, who helps an aristocratic pooch named Lady out of some trouble and then commences a romance with her. Sweet, funny scenes abound, and the combination of innocence and sophistication would have done well in a live-action picture. Peggy Lee cowrote the songs and provides the voice of the Siamese cats in one of the film's best-known musical sequences. This newly restored version spruces up both sonics and visuals, and a letterbox version is available. --Tom Keogh

Spotlight customer reviews:
Customer Rating:      Summary: This is a great classic! Comment: Loved this movie as a kids and wanted it for my kids. They loved it too.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Favorite cartoon Comment: "Lady and the Tramp" is my favorite Disney movie. Who can forget the romantic scene as our hero and heroin share spagetti and they meet nearly nose to nose on a single strand while serenaded ...'a beautiful night'. This film showcases great characterization, voices, sound and imagery. It's comical and thrilling with the feel good happy ending. I bought this for myself.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Thank you Comment: Thanks so much for sending this so fast - I didn't realize the cover was in French (?) No big deal, maybe I misread something, but the movie plays great and we are satisfied. Thanks!
Customer Rating:      Summary: A Great Family Romance Gets The Platinum Treatment Comment: Walt Disney's "Lady And The Tramp" was never one of my personal favorite films as a child. I'm all grown up now, and it has become a very enjoyable treat for me and my entire family. For those unfamiliar with the story, here's a brief explanation: Cocker Spaniel Lady has a perfect life until a baby shows up. She begins to feel neglected and when her owners take a little vacation and leave her and the baby with Aunt Sarah, she winds up on the mean streets alone....until Tramp shows up. He defends her, has a romantic dinner with her and eventually finds his way into her heart. It's all executed with Disney's classic perfection and littered with wonderful songs like "Bella Notte" and "We Are Siamese."
What really makes this film worth five stars is the treatment it receives in this platinum edition. The digital restoration looks and sounds great. The extras are some of the best I've ever seen, especially the "Backstage Disney" features that give animation fans a wonderful look at the development of the film.
If you're a fan of animation, this DVD is a must. The special features alone are worth the purchase price. Fans of light romance, family films and dogs will also love this classic Disney tale. Highly recommended.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Classic kids movie for all ages... Comment: This was one of my favorite movies as a child, and I was so very happy to share that love with my youngest daughter. She loves the movie and watches it almost daily. The special features are fun for us all. Thank you for letting me relive my childhood through the eyes of my baby girl.....
