A classic love story unfolds in the best Disney tradition as a lovely young pedigreed

for Tramp, an amorous street-smart pooch without prospects. Although they have fun 
together on several dates, including a sentimental spaghetti dinner by moonlight at 
Tony’s restaurant, their relationship is strained not only by Lady’s loyalty to her human 
family and their newborn baby, but by Tramp’s devil-may-care attitude that eventually

My Review:

This was one Disney classic I was looking forward to sharing with my daughter, Savannah.  And, just in time for Valentine's Day, as this love story between Lady and the Tramp is only fitting.  I remember seeing this for the first time as a child and falling in love with Lady.  I rooted for the dogs to fall in love, and in turn became a dog lover -- hence, my 3 rescue dogs, who have become my loves/children.  

What makes this 2-disc combo pack so enjoyable is that the film has been picture and sound have been digitally enhanced, it includes never before seen deleted scenes, as well as a never before heard deleted song.  In addition to these new features, the 2-disc set also includes some amazing bonus features:  Inside Walt's Story Meetings, Diane Disney: Remembering Dan, Lady's Pedigree: The Making of Lady and the Tramp, Puppymedia: Going to the Dogs, The Siamese Cat Song: Finding a Voice for the Cats and so much more. 

This film will always remain a beloved classic with young and old.  Like they say, you can't help who you love in love, and most of the time they are the complete opposites, as are Lady and the Tramp.  But, you can't stop love, and this is beautifully notes in this film, that will have your family enjoying the amazing animation and singing along to some unforgettable songs.  Who can resist the scene were these two dogs in love, share a bowl of spaghetti and meatballs.  My heart melts each time I watch this film.  And, with Valentine's Day around the corner, it reminds me of my perfect love.

Like I said, you are never too old or young to enjoy this masterpiece, that will continue to live on in hearts of many.  Why not add this remastered 2-disc set to your Disney movie collection today?  I am so glad that I did.  And, you will just love the bonus features.  Walt Disney was a brilliant man, but his daughter paid a beautiful tribute to him in this bonus feature.




---PRE-ORDER--- 

Starting Feb. 7th, you can pick this 2-disc set up at mos major retailers, as well as online.  But, in the meantime, why not pre-order it, and make sure you have it in hand prior to Valentine' Day -- And, surprise those you love with this heartwarming Disney classic.
