Lady and the Tramp
Rightly one of the Disney's most celebrated classics, Lady and the Tramp is a 1955 animated feature film produced by Walt Disney. 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, a romance between two dogs from different walks of life.
Lady and the Tramp II: Scamp's Adventure is a direct-to-video animated film, produced in 2001 and released on February 27, 2001 by The Walt Disney Company as a sequel to their 1955 feature film Lady and the Tramp. The story centres around Lady and Tramp's puppy Scamp and his desire to become a "wild dog". Numerous elements of the film were borrowed from Lady and the Tramp. One notable reference includes Angel referring to Scamp's neighborhood as "Snob Hill", a phrase used by Tramp to describe the same place in the first film.
I watched Lady and the Tramp during my childhood and have always been regarded the movie as one of my favourites. The relations between two different worlds revolving around the main characters, the beautiful background design of the human world from the dog's perspective and the unforgettable spaghetti's scene have been an inspiration. Now I have understood well why
I always been liking bluish background, a night walk acroos the bridge and under the spotlight, as well as candle light dinner. It had been planted in my heart as a little girl more than 10 years ago.
The Lady and the Tramp II, which contains almost the same elements from its previous movie, emphasises more on the family theme, about a son longing for a freedom and it reminds me of the famous parable, the Prodigal Son. Watching the second one recently has been nostalgic.
