CinemaScope
widescreen film process,
[3]
as well as Disney's first animated film to be distributed by their Buena Vista division following their split from
RKO Radio Pictures
. It initially received generally mixed reviews by film critics, but critical reception for the film has been generally positive in modern times.
A
direct-to-video
sequel, titled
Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure
, was released in 2001, and a
live-action/CGI hybrid remake
premiered in 2019 as a launch title for the
Disney+
streaming service. In 2023,
Lady and the Tramp
was selected for preservation in the United States
National Film Registry
by the
Library of Congress
as being "culturally, historically or aesthetically significant."
[4]
Plot
In 1909, in a small town, "Jim Dear" gives his wife "Darling"
[a]
a
cocker spaniel
puppy as a Christmas present. The puppy, named Lady, grows up pampered by her doting owners, and befriends her neighbors' dogs Jock (a
Scottie
) and Trusty (an elderly
Bloodhound
). Meanwhile, across town, a stray
terrier
-mix named Tramp feeds on scraps and handouts, and frees his friends Peg the
Pekingese
and Bull the
Bulldog
from the local
dogcatcher
.
Fleeing the angry dogcatcher, Tramp finds himself in Lady's neighborhood. He overhears a distraught Lady conversing with Jock and Trusty about her owners' suddenly distant behavior towards her. When Jock and Trusty deduce this is because Darling is pregnant, Tramp inserts himself into the conversation as the "voice of experience", and warns Lady that "when a baby moves in, a dog moves out". Annoyed, Jock drives him from the yard. Tramp's words cause Lady to fret throughout Darling's pregnancy, but when the baby boy arrives, she is allowed to meet and bond with him, dispelling her fears.
Later, Jim Dear and Darling take a short trip, leaving the house, Lady, and the baby in the care of Jim Dear's aunt Sarah, who brings along her two
Siamese cats
Si and Am.
[b]
Sarah dislikes dogs, and prohibits Lady from seeing the baby; later, the cats destroy the house, and pin the deed on Lady by pretending she injured them. Sarah takes Lady to the pet shop, and has a
muzzle
put on her; Lady panics and flees into the street, where she is pursued by three savage dogs, until Tramp intervenes to protect her.
Tramp takes Lady to the zoo to have the muzzle removed by a
beaver
; he then shows Lady his owner-free lifestyle, and they explore the town. The kindly proprietor of Tony's Restaurant gives them a spaghetti dinner to share, before they end the evening with a walk in the park.
The next day, Tramp tries to convince Lady to live "footloose and collar free" with him; despite liking Tramp, she decides her duty is to watch over the baby. As Tramp escorts Lady home, he stops to chase some chickens; the dogcatcher pursues them both, but only Lady is caught. At the
pound
, she meets Peg, Bull, and some other strays, who all know Tramp. They reveal he has had many girlfriends in the past, and claim that females are his weakness.
Sarah comes to claim Lady, and chains her in the backyard as punishment for running away. Jock and Trusty propose that Lady should marry and come live with one of them, to escape the abuse, but she gently refuses them. When Tramp arrives to apologize to Lady, she berates him for his many girlfriends and sends him away, too. Afterwards, Lady notices a large rat sneaking into the house through the baby's bedroom window. Her attempts to alert Sarah fail, but Tramp hears her barking, returns, and enters the house himself to save the baby. Lady breaks her chain and follows soon after. Tramp is wounded in the battle with the rat, but manages to kill it behind a curtain. During the struggle, the baby's crib overturns, and he begins to cry; Sarah comes to investigate, and assumes the dogs attacked the baby.
Jim Dear and Darling return home to find that Sarah has locked Lady in the cellar and handed Tramp over to the dogcatcher to be euthanized. Disbelieving Sarah's story, Jim Dear frees Lady, who immediately shows them the dead rat. Overhearing the truth, Jock and Trusty pursue the dogcatcher's cart and try to stop it; the horses spook, causing the cart to crash. Jim Dear and Darling arrive with Lady to rescue Tramp, but Trusty is badly injured in the wreck.
Later, at Christmastime, Tramp has become an official part of the family, and he and Lady have four little puppies of their own. Jock and a mostly healed Trusty visit the family; the puppies now provide Trusty a new audience for his old stories, but he has forgotten them, much
to his and everyone else's amusement.
Cast
- Peggy Lee
as Darling, Lady's owner and Jim Dear's wife.
- Lee also voiced Peg, a stray female
Pekingese
with a
Brooklyn Accent
whom Lady meets at the pound, as well as Si and Am, Aunt Sarah's twin
Siamese cats
with a knack for mischief and never-ending trouble.
- Barbara Luddy
as Lady, an
American Cocker Spaniel
, who is the primary character in the film. A Christmas present to Darling from Jim Dear, she quickly becomes the center of their lives, but is then subconsciously neglected due to the birth of a human baby who she comes to love unconditionally. Her experiences outside the household, and her encounter with Tramp force her to question the nature of her relationship with her humans (who she never sees as her owners), and give her a new understanding of the world around her.
- Larry Roberts
as Tramp, a
mongrel
(with a mixture of a
schnauzer
and a
terrier
), with a talent for escaping dog-catchers. He nicknames Lady "Pidge", short for Pigeon, which he calls her owing to her
naivety
. He never refers to himself by name, although most of the film's canine cast refer to him as the Tramp. Tramp had other names in the film, and when asked by Lady about having a family, Tramp states that he has, "One for every day of the week. Point is, none of them have me." Each family mentioned called him a different name (such as Mike or Fritzi). The families also had different nationalities (such as Irish or German). As he did not belong to a single-family, Tramp implied that it was easier than the baby problems Lady was going through at the time.
- Bill Thompson
as Jock, a
Scottish Terrier
who is one of Lady's neighbors.
- Thompson also voiced Joe, Tony's assistant chef; Bull, a stray male
bulldog
from the dog pound who speaks with a Cockney accent; Dachsie, a stray male
dachshund
at the dog pound who speaks with a German accent; an Irish-accented policeman; and Jim's friend.
- Bill Baucom as Trusty, a
bloodhound
who used to track criminals with his Grandpappy, Old Reliable, until he lost his sense of smell.
- Stan Freberg
as the beaver, a diligent, absent-minded beaver at the zoo who speaks with a lisp. He gnaws off the muzzle that Aunt Sarah had placed upon Lady after Tramp realizes that the muzzle is just what the beaver needs for pulling logs. This character would later serve as the inspiration for
Gopher
from
Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree
(1966), down to the speech pattern (a whistling sound when he makes the "S" sound). On the 2-Disc Platinum Edition DVD, Stan Freberg demonstrates how it was done and that a whistle was eventually used because it was hard to continue repeating the effect.
- Verna Felton
as Aunt Sarah, Jim Dear's aunt who babysits for the couple. She is a cat person and dislikes dogs.
- Alan Reed
as Boris, a stray male
Borzoi
from the dog pound with a Russian accent.
- George Givot
as Tony, the owner and chef of Tony's
Italian restaurant
.
- Dallas McKennon
as:
- Toughy, a stray male mutt with a slight Brooklyn accent
- Pedro, a stray male
Chihuahua
with a Mexican accent
- McKennon also voices a professor and a laughing hyena
- Lee Millar as Jim Dear, Lady's owner and Darling's husband.
- Millar also voiced the Dogcatcher.
- The Mellomen
(
Thurl Ravenscroft
,
Bill Lee
, Max Smith, Bob Hamlin and Bob Stevens) as Dog Chorus
- Ravenscroft also plays Al the alligator
Production
Story development
In 1937,
Walt Disney Productions
story artist
Joe Grant
came up with an idea inspired by the antics of his
English Springer Spaniel
Lady, and how she got "shoved aside" by Joe's new baby. He approached Walt Disney with sketches of Lady. Disney enjoyed the sketches and commissioned Grant to start story development on a new animated feature titled
Lady
.
[6]
Through the late 1930s and early 1940s, Joe Grant and other artists worked on the story, taking a variety of approaches, but Disney was not pleased with any of them, primarily because he thought Lady was too sweet, and there was not enough action.
[6]
Walt Disney read the short story written by Ward Greene, titled "Happy Dan, the Cynical Dog", in the
Cosmopolitan
magazine, published in 1945.
[7]
[8]
He thought that Grant's story would be improved if Lady fell in love with a cynical dog character like the one in Greene's story, and bought the rights to it.
[9]
The cynical dog had various names during development, including Homer, Rags, and Bozo, before "Tramp" was chosen.
[7]
The finished film is slightly different from what was originally planned. Lady was to have only one next-door neighbor, a
Ralph Bellamy
-type canine named Hubert. Hubert was later replaced with Jock and Trusty. Aunt Sarah was the traditional overbearing mother-in-law. In the final film, she is softened to a busybody who, though antagonistic towards Lady and Tramp, is well-meaning (she sends a packet of dog biscuits to the dogs at Christmas to apologize for mistreating them). Aunt Sarah's Nip and Tuck were later renamed Si and Am.
[7]
Originally, Lady's owners were called Jim Brown and Elizabeth. These were changed to highlight Lady's point of view. They were briefly referred to as "Mister" and "Missis" before settling on the names "Jim Dear" and "Darling". To maintain a dog's
perspective
, Darling and Jim's faces are rarely shown, similar to Tom's various owners in the
Tom and Jerry
cartoons. The rat was a somewhat comic character in early sketches, but became a great deal more frightening, due to the need to raise dramatic tension. A scene created but then deleted was one in which after Trusty says "Everybody knows, a dog's best friend is his human", Tramp describes a world in which the roles of both dogs and humans are switched; the dogs are the masters and vice versa.
[6]
There was a love triangle among Lady, Tramp, and a
Russian wolfhound
named Boris (who appears in the dog pound in the final version).
[10]
The film's opening sequence, in which Darling unwraps a hat box on Christmas morning and finds Lady inside, is inspired by an incident when Walt Disney presented his wife Lily with a
Chow
puppy as a gift in a hat box to make up for having previously forgotten a dinner date with her.
[11]
In 1949, Grant left the studio, yet Disney story men were continually pulling Grant's original drawings and story off the shelf to retool.
[6]
A solid story began taking shape in 1953,
[9]
based on Grant's storyboards and Greene's short story.
[6]
Greene later wrote a
novelization
of the film that was released two years before the film itself, at Walt Disney's insistence, so that audiences would be familiar with the story.
[12]
Due to Greene's novelization, Grant did not receive film credit for his story work, an issue that animation director
Eric Goldberg
hoped to rectify in the
Lady and the Tramp
Platinum Edition's behind-the-scenes vignette that explained Grant's role.
[6]
Singer Peggy Lee not only voiced four characters but co-wrote six songs for the film.
[13]
Animation
As they had done with the deer on
Bambi
, the animators studied many dogs of different breeds to capture the movement and personality of dogs. Although the spaghetti eating sequence is probably now the best-known scene from the film, Walt Disney was prepared to cut it, thinking that it would not be romantic and that dogs eating spaghetti would look silly. Animator
Frank Thomas
was against Walt's decision and animated the entire scene himself without any lay-outs. Walt was impressed by Thomas's work and how he romanticized the scene and kept it in.
[6]
On viewing the first take of the scene, the animators felt that the action should be slowed down, so an apprentice trainee was assigned to create "half numbers" in between many of the original frames.
[14]
Originally, the background artist was supposed to be
Mary Blair
and she did some inspirational sketches for the film. However, she left the studio to become a children's book illustrator in 1953. Claude Coats was then appointed as the key background artist. Coats made models of the interiors of Jim Dear and Darling's house, and shot photos and film at a low perspective as reference to maintain a dog's view.
[12]
Eyvind Earle (who later became the art director of Disney's
Sleeping Beauty
) did almost 50 miniature concept sketches for the "Bella Notte" sequence and was a key contributor to the film.
[12]
CinemaScope
Originally,
Lady and the Tramp
was planned to be filmed in a regular
full frame
aspect ratio
. However, due to the growing interest of
widescreen
film among movie-goers, Disney decided to animate the film in
CinemaScope
making
Lady and the Tramp
the first animated feature filmed in the process.
[7]
This new innovation presented additional problems for the animators: the expansion of space created more realism but gave fewer closeups.
[9]
It also made it difficult for a single character to dominate the screen so that groups had to be spread out to keep the screen from appearing sparse.
[7]
Longer takes become necessary since constant jump-cutting would seem too busy or annoying.
[3]
Layout artists essentially had to reinvent their technique. Animators had to remember that they had to move their characters across a background instead of the background passing behind them.
[9]
Yet the animators overcame these obstacles during the action scenes, such as Tramp killing the rat.
[3]
More problems arose as the premiere date got closer since not all theaters had the capability to show CinemaScope at the time. Upon learning this, Walt issued two versions of the film: one in widescreen, and another in the
Academy ratio
. This involved gathering the layout artists to restructure key scenes when characters were on the edges of the screen.
[15]
Release
Lady and the Tramp
was originally released to theaters on June 22, 1955. An episode of
Disneyland
called "A Story of Dogs" aired before the film's release.
[16]
The film was also reissued to theaters in 1962, 1972, 1980, and 1986.
[17]
Lady and the Tramp
also played a limited engagement in select
Cinemark Theatres
from February 16?18, 2013.
[18]

[20]
The video cassette had grossed
$100 million

[21]
After its release on videotape, she sought performance and song royalties on the video sales. Disney CEO
Michael Eisner
refused, thus she filed suit in 1988. Eventually in 1992, the California Court of Appeals order Disney to pay Lee $3.2 million in compensation or about 4% of the video sales.
[13]
It was released on VHS again in 1998 as part of the Walt Disney Masterpiece Collection video series. A Disney Limited Issue series DVD of the film was released on November 23, 1999, for a limited sixty-day time period.
[22]
Lady and the Tramp

[23]
On its first day, one million copies of the Platinum Edition were sold.
[24]
The Platinum Edition DVD went on moratorium on January 31, 2007, along with the 2006 DVD re-issue of the film's sequel
Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure
.
[25]
Lady and the Tramp
was released on
Blu-ray

[29]
Reception
Critical reception
During its initial release, the film initially polarized critics.
[30]
Bosley Crowther
of
The New York Times
claimed the film was "not the best [Disney] has done in this line. The sentimentality is mighty, and the CinemaScope size does not make for any less aware of the thickness of the goo. It also magnifies the animation, so that the flaws and poor foreshortening are more plain. Unfortunately, and surprisingly, the artists' work is below par in this film."
[31]
Time
wrote "Walt Disney has for so long parlayed gooey sentiment and stark horror into profitable cartoons that most moviegoers are apt to be more surprised than disappointed to discover that the combination somehow does not work this time."
[32]
However,
Variety
deemed the film "a delight for the juveniles and a joy for adults".
[33]
Harrison's Reports
felt the "scintillating musical score and several songs, the dialogue and the voices, the behaviors and expressions of the different characters, the mellow turn-of-the-century backgrounds, the beautiful color and sweep of the CinemaScope process ? all these add up to the one of the most enjoyable cartoon features Disney has ever made."
[34]
Edwin Schallert of the
Los Angeles Times
described the film as a "delightful, haunting, charmed fantasy that is remarkably enriched with music and, incidentally, with rare conversations among the canine characters."
[35]
However, the film has since gone on to become regarded as a classic. Both
Gene Siskel
and
Roger Ebert
gave the film a positive review on their show
At the Movies
when re-released in 1986, with Ebert in particular praising the opening scene of Lady as a puppy calling it one of the greatest animated sequences Disney ever did.
[36]
Dave Kehr
, writing for
The Chicago Tribune
gave the film four stars.
[37]
Animation historian Charles Solomon praised the film.
[38]
The sequence of Lady and Tramp sharing a plate of spaghetti ? climaxed by an accidental kiss as they swallow opposite ends of the same strand of spaghetti ? is considered an iconic scene in American film history.
[39]
The
review aggregator
website Rotten Tomatoes reported that the film received a 93% approval rating, with an average rating of 7.9/10, based on 44 reviews. The website's consensus states, "A nostalgic charmer,
Lady and the Tramp
'
s token sweetness is mighty but the songs and richly colored animation are technically superb and make for a memorable experience."
[40]
Lady and the Tramp
was named number 95 out of the "100 Greatest Love Stories of All Time" by the
American Film Institute
in their
100 Years...100 Passions
special, as one of only two animated films to appear on the list, along with Disney's
Beauty and the Beast
which ranked 34th.
[41]
In 2010,
Rhapsody
called its accompanying soundtrack one of the all-time great Disney and Pixar soundtracks.
[42]
In June 2011,
TIME
named it one of "The 25 All-TIME Best Animated Films".
[43]
Box office
In its initial release, the film took in a higher figure than any other Disney animated feature since
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
,
[16]
earning an estimated $6.5 million in distributor rentals.
[44]
When it was re-released in 1962, it grossed roughly between $6 million and $7 million. During its 1971 re-release, the film grossed $10 million, and when it was re-released again in 1980, it grossed $27 million.
[45]
During its fourth re-release in 1986, it garnered $31.1 million.
[46]
Lady and the Tramp
has had a domestic lifetime gross of $93.6 million,
[1]
[47]
and a lifetime international gross of $187 million.
