Lady and the Tramp1955Lady and the Tramp
1955
Lady, a pampered cocker spaniel, is the darling of her household, until a new baby arrives and a visiting aunt brings trouble. Lost in the city, she's rescued by the Tramp, a charming stray who shows her a world without leashes.
The default: films the whole family can watch together; any scary or intense moments for the littlest viewers are flagged in the Context Notes.
Why it’s here
A pampered spaniel and a streetwise mutt fall in love, and Tramp gives up his freedom to protect the baby and settle into a home and family.
Context notes
For parents, before you press play.
A muzzle, fierce dogs, the dog pound, a rat in the baby's room, and a near-fatal accident may scare little ones. The Siamese cats are an Asian caricature (Disney+ attaches an advisory).
