Lady and the Tramp

Lady and the Tramp

The classic Disney film with the 'bella notte'. 1955. Directors: Clyde Geronimi, Hamilton Luske, Wilfred Jackson.
Lady is a gorgeous cocker spaniel living in a fancy neighbourhood in a fancy house with rich owners. After some lovely years there, Lady hears the owners talk about things.
Her friends Jock and Trusty explains to her that the owners are expecting a baby. The Tramp walk into the yard and to the friend's anger, starts warning Lady of that when the baby arrives, she'll lose her comfortable place in the home.
The baby arrives and Lady is still loved as much as before. But then, the owners leaves for a short trip, and leaves poor Lady with the horrible Aunt Sarah who brings her two awful cats with her.
After a chase where the cats starts ruining the house, Aunt Sarah gets Lady muzzled. Scared, Lady run away but she's then chased by vicious street dogs. The Tramp sees her in trouble and he rescue her. He then bring her to the zoo where he helps her get the muzzle off.
Lady, who's very rich, doesn't seem to be the perfect match for the Tramp who's poor. But she then realizes that he's much more kind then she first thought. The love story begins.
This film can sometimes be a bit slow and boring. But still, there's some parts which is really good, like the restaurant scene. But the scenes in the dog-jail or what you want to call it, is too long. This film is part times very charming and anyone who's fond of dogs will probably like this, at least a bit.
