One of the more endearing stories Walt Disney gave his magical animation treatment to. Based on a story that originally appeared in "Cosmopolitan" it tells the story of a molly-coddled spaniel "Lady" who finds her comfortable life completely trashed by the arrival of a baby to her owners and of two clever Siamese cats that belong to "Aunt Sarah" in her home. Before she knows it; she has a nice new muzzle and has run away to the zoo with local grifter "Tramp". The dogs embark on a series of fun, sometime perilous, adventures and slowly fall in puppy-love. The characterisations are amongst the studio's best - especially the beaver, and "Jock" the aptly named wee Highland terrier. It is simple, if a little over-scripted, and there are great songs "He's a Tramp" and "We are Siamese, if you Please" amongst the more memorable. The animations are a little static at times, but it's still up there as a genuinely enchanting piece of cinema.
