Disney Lady and the Tramp Blu-ray Diamond Edition Review ? Here ...

I remember taking my little girl to see Lady and the Tramp in its third theater release. I remember her insisting on having her own Tramp. This animated classic is now available on Blu-ray. I?m glad that I can replace my VCR tape with a Diamond Edition, true magic in high definition. Released first in 1955, Lady and the Tramp remains an endearing classic.

Lady and the Tramp, the 1955 first full length original cartoon story, is vintage Disney. Suburb pencil artwork sets the tale in gaslight early 20th Century refined middle-class Midwest America. Its outstanding sound track includes musical favorites La La Lu, The Siamese Cat Song, He?s a Tramp, and Bella Notte. No wonder it ranks as one of the 100 greatest love stories of all time.

Plot synopsis:
Jim Dear gives his wife a Christmastide gift, a puppy. Charmed by the cocker spaniel, Darling indulges her pedigree leash and collar set pet as does her husband. Things change temporarily when the couple have a baby. Meanwhile sheltered Lady meets streetwise, footloose, collar free mongrel Tramp. The mutt with radical ideas warns her that when the baby moves in, the dog moves out.

The couple go away leaving well-meaning busybody Aunt Sara to mind things. Accompanying her are two Siamese troublemaker cats, Si and Am, with not so honorable intentions about milk and fish. Aunt Sara blames Lady for their misdeeds and muzzles Lady.

The dog runs away to meets up again with Tramp to have fun, share a day at the zoo, and a special dinner at Tony?s restaurant while on the road. Along the way Lady is caught by the dog catcher and taken to the pound. Once reclaimed by Aunt Sara, she is put in the doghouse.

Outside Lady sees a rat going towards the nursery. Tramp helps her save the baby, but, in the ruckus, the crib topples. Aunt Sara does not see the dead rat, blames the two dogs, and calls the pound. Jim and Darling return and realize what really happened. Jim retrieves Tramp and gives him a collar and a license.

The next Christmas Jim, Darling, baby, Lady, Tramp, and four pups share the day together. Lesson: things are not always as they seem.

I appreciate the 2 disc Blu-ray and DVD combo pack. Its bonus features are extremely interesting to Disney fan me.

Disc 1?Blu-ray Feature Film + bonus includes:
Never-Before-Seen Deleted Scenes
Never-Before-Heard deleted Song ?I?m Free?
Inside Walt?s Story Meetings
Lady?s Pedigree: The Making of Lady and the Tramp
The Siamese Cat Song: Finding a Voice for the Cats
Plus DVD Bonus Features
Disc 2-DVD Feature Film + Bonus includes:

Puppypedia: Going to the Dogs

I think Lady and the Tramp is a captivating child-friendly story from which children can watch, enjoy and learn. The G-rated feature listing at $39.99 retail, has a 76 minute running time that goes quickly.

Here?s a clip called He?s A Tramp.

And some fun activities.

I got into the Disney Second Screen that shows Walt, his wife, his children, his grandchildren in Disneyland. It gives viewers an intimate glimpse and personal knowledge not available to the public (example: Walt Disney?s Victorian apartment over the Firehouse by Main Street, Disneyland with the collectibles like the cranberry pieces, Edison phonograph, and Regina music box clock).
