Synopsis: Based on Ward Greene's short story "Happy Dan, The Whistling Dog," this feature is the romantic adventure of a pedigreed Cocker Spaniel and a freedom-loving mongrel from the wrong side of the tracks.

While it's not one of the strongest Disney animated features, this one has enough strengths to keep it popular decades after its 1955 release.

A charming piece of vintage entertainment from Walt Disney, replete with wholesome family values.

Visual images on a 70mm screen are bound to be stunning, but it takes a fun and good-natured story to back them up; here, we have a premise that joins two opposites in a sweet love story as adventurous as it is fearsome and daring.

The vintage animation is brilliant, and Disney has done a wonderful job with the transfer to DVD.

Happily the cameo lowlife, an excellent manic beaver, the famously villainous Siamese, and classic songs rescue the film from dumb animal sentiment.

Not only is Lady and the Tramp one of Disney's sweetest films, it's one of their loveliest to look at.

They don't make movies like Lady and the Tramp any more. I know that's a cliche, but it's true.

[It made] more money than any other film from the 1950s except The Ten Commandments and Ben-Hur.
