Movie Review: Lady and the Tramp

  Last week, I watched a Disney classic animation, entitled "Lady and the Tramp." I am familiar with the appearances of the dog characters in the movie since, we have these Disney classics story books when we were still kids. In fact, we still have these books at home.

At first, I was not really that focused in watching the movie but as the story progressed, I really find it okay. According to Wikipedia this movie was a 1955 musical romance film that centers on an American Cocker Spaniel named Lady. Jim Dear, gave this dog as a gift to his wife, Darling. The couple was childless at first, but after some time, Darling became pregnant, and there was the baby! One day the couple needed to travel, and they needed someone to take care of the baby. They asked Aunt Sarah to look after the baby. Aunt Sarah has two cats, and she is not very fond of dogs, especially with Lady.  So this is where the problem started. I will not tell the whole story here. If you have not seen the movie, you can try watching it.

What I like about the movie is that it focuses on how a dog might feel in a family. Dogs might feel unloved. I am aware that this could be possible since I have a poodle, and she is kinda sensitive. Having a dog is really a commitment, just like when you enter a relationship, its not only love that keeps you going, but bear in mind that you are committed to someone, and this is not something that you are going to neglect, or leave, when you get tired of it. This is a good family movie, and I really like the lesson that it teaches, especially to those who are dog lovers. A family with a dog is really more special.
