A few thoughts upon re-watching the film:

-I've always thought that the song that Lady sings about "What is a Baby" sounded kind of creepy. Just watch!
-I think Aunt Sarah could go down in history as one of Disney's most hated animated characters.
-"We Are Siamese" is my favorite song!
-This film is adorable all the way from the beginning with Lady as a puppy to the end where she has pups of her own!

Trivia:
-Barbara Luddy (Lady) also performs the voice of Merryweather (Sleeping Beauty), Rover (101 Dalmatians),  Mother Mouse and Mother Rabbit (Robin Hood), and Kanga (The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh).
-First animated feature to be filmed in CinemaScope.
-Was named one of the top 25 animated films of all time by TIME magazine in 2011.

If you have never seen "Lady and the Tramp", I highly recommend it! It's one of the best love stories for people and dogs alike!

1950- "Cinderella"


Cinderella is a 1950 American animated film produced by Walt Disney and based on the fairy tale "Cendrillon" by Charles Perrault. Twelfth in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series, the film had a limited release on February 15, 1950 by RKO Radio Pictures. Directing credits go to Clyde Geronimi, Hamilton Luske and Wilfred Jackson. Songs were written by Mack David, Jerry Livingston, and Al Hoffman. Songs in the film include "A Dream Is a Wish Your Heart Makes", "Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo", "So This Is Love", "Sing Sweet Nightingale", "The Work Song", and "Cinderella."- Information from wikipedia.org

"Cinderella" is one of my childhood favorites! I used to rent it all the time from the video store. I had the beginning narration memorized and would recite it to my mom.

"A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes" is my favorite Disney song.(Well one of them)

Gus' name is really Octavius. He is my favorite character in the whole movie. My Grandma thinks I could imitate him, but I really can't.
Lucifer always makes me soo mad. I never liked him. I just don't like cats in general.
I think the king is a bit too into the whole marriage and grandkids thing. Reminds me of my family. LOL
"Cindrelly" was my favorite song when I was a child. I loved watching the mice make her dress.
The part where the stepsisters tear her dress is a bit traumatizing. I really don't understand how obnoxiously cruel those characters can be.
Fairy Godmother will always hold a special place in my heart!!!

Everyone should watch "Ciderella", it's a must-see classic!!!
