- DAVE LEE'S BEHIND THE DISNEY CLASSICS #15: LADY AND THE TRAMP (1955)
I take a behind the scenes look at the making of 'Lady and the Tramp', Walt Disney's 14th feature-length animated masterpiece.
When I first started production on this installment, I never would have expected my work to be somewhat of a detective hunt. This is a movie which, I surprisingly found to have a poorly documented early production, and whose story had been told in many contradictory ways over the years - by both unreliable and reliable sources.
To put together this piece I had to go on my own detective hunt, to get right down to the true story of the production of the film - even enlisting the help of various Disney Historians as well as tracking down documentation at the University of Michigan in the United States, to help me form, what I hope to be, one of the first fully accurate documentations of this picture.
In some cases, the poor documentation of this feature was the work of a studio publicity machine, who felt their own fabricated version of the truth was better than what actually happened.

Lady and the Tramp is one of my favorite Disney movies because it's very romantic. Certain scenes in Lady and the Tramp remind me of six Thomas the Tank Engine stories about being careful, eight Thomas the Tank Engine stories about working together and eight Thomas the Tank Engine stories about behaving well. The stories about being careful are Percy Runs Away (Volume 3), Thomas Breaks the Rules (Volume 4), Henry's Special Coal (Volume 3), The Flying Kipper (Volume 3), Trouble for Thomas (Volume 1) and Toby the Tram Engine (Volume 3). The stories about working together are James in a Mess (Volume 4), Duck Takes Charge (Volume 4), Down the Mine (Volume 5), The Runaway (Volume 5), Better Late Than Never (Volume 5), Tenders and Turntables (Volume 3), Trust Thomas (Volume 6) and Percy and the Signal (Volume 7). The stories about behaving well are Thomas Comes to Breakfast (Volume 3), Pop Goes the Diesel (Volume 5), Diesel's Devious Deed (Volume 5), A Close Shave for Duck (Volume 5), Gordon Takes a Dip (Volume 5), Double Trouble (Volume 4), A Cow on the Line (Volume 4) and Trouble in the Shed (Volume 3).
This movie grew out to be my favorite of all movies I've watched in all my twenty something years. The one movie I could go and rewatch countless times on end. It is animation excellence of the highest class.
Somebody on deviantart named akril15 has pointed out that Ward Greene also wrote a series of newspaper comics that picks up where the movie left off. In those comics, lady and tramp originally had two sons, not one. The other son that was not included in the direct to video sequel is named Scooter. Also, the name of daughters in the comics were different and there were only two of them.
That was a fantastic video, Dave! I love Lady and The Tramp, and I’m a huge Disney fan too so I totally appreciate all your hard work and time it took to produce this fantastic insight 😍
Thanks so much! Really glad you enjoyed it!! 😄
One of my three childhood favorites, along with The Little Mermaid and Sleeping Beauty. Thank you Dave for producing this behind the scenes featurette. Really enjoyed it 😊
Absolute pleasure! Thanks heaps - I’m glad you enjoyed it 😊😊
"Lady and the tramp isn't one of my favorite Disney classic's. It's one that I grew up watching but not on an incredibly regular basis."
That's my relationship with this film too. It isn't that wonderful but I do like it very much. And it reminds me of those childhood years when my life was a little easier and simpler.
BTW, I remember my Lady and the Tramp VHS was in 4:3 aspect ratio, but I think it was a pan & scan of the Cinemascope version rather than the original 4:3 theatrical version of the film...
Yeah, I feel like that's probably how a lot of people feel about the movie. It's a classic, but I wouldn't say it's in the top tier.
Ohhh really???!! That is so bizzare! I wonder why they'd do that??!
Amazing video Dave! Definitely worth the wait, and a nice night cap to my first night home from my extensive testing. Some very interesting stuff in here that I had absolutely no idea of. Definitely going to go and watch this film again in the very near future. Have a great night!
Thanks heaps man, glad you enjoyed it and it was worth the wait!
It’s certainly a very interesting story - a lot of big surprises researching it.
Hope your testing is going well. Take it easy
Really good vid mate. You honestly should be so proud of this content, it’s really high quality, entertaining and informative. Must take ages to compile!
Thanks heaps mate - greatly appreciated.
This one took a good couple of weeks to properly research and write (in between other videos), smashed out the editing across two full days. Lots of work, but certainly proud of the final products :)
Love your videos keep up the good work
Thanks heaps, Steven 😊😊
How in the name of god does this only have 3000 views?
Subsonic Sparkle I 100% agree with you!! This is so informative and very interesting
Bloody hell Dave, you've set the bar very high with this. Perfection. 👏
Thanks heaps, Alan! Much appreciated!! Glad you enjoyed it 😄
Only two 50's animated Disney movies left: Cinderella and Peter Pan. Looking forward to them in the future!
I can tell you that one of them in particular is coming sooner rather than later 😉
I love these videos
Thanks mate! Hope you enjoyed it!
Great Video Dave! Watched this as soon as it came out, but just got a chance to comment. Been missing these! I had no idea that the history behind this movie was so clouded! This might be one of, if not the best BTDC so far just because this story is never told. Love this vid & continued congrats on your climbing subscriber count. I was wondering (I commented on the Blu-ray release video, but I don't know if you get notifications for older vids) if you have heard about the Wal-Mart release for The Last Jedi? It's the one I want.
Thanks heaps mate!! Much appreciated.
Trying to do more of these -- this one should've had a faster turnaround, but it turned into a lot more work that expected. Happy I got it done though! Not sure I'll match this one again haha.
Brilliant vid and I absolutely love lady and the tramp
Thanks mate 😊
No problem :D
I LOVE THIS MOVIE YOU KNOW THAT
Haha I certainly do!
Glad to help.
Thank you!
you know trusty was to die in the movie until peggy or some women/wives said not too
Hello Dave! I’m wondering if you know what the initials mean in the wet cement scene?
Well this is a surprise!
A good one I hope!
I love Lady and the tramp.
It great.
Id like to see the Academy Ratio version brought back in print
Ha god! Really luvd it!! This movie has been one of my most fAv disney classics ever and was really impatient for the signature edition of it bur sadly im not able to get it! Did u get ur hands on it yet?
Thanks so much man!! I have my Canadian friend, Vincent, getting me a copy! Have not got it in hand yet, though.
I’ve actually never seen Lady and the Tramp I am worried I will cringe during Siamese cats
Siamese Cats is the worst thing about the movie, but they’re not in it long.
It’s also a product of its time, sadly, so if you watch it, you need to keep that in mind.
Dave Lee Down Under I know that it is good for a 1955 animated feature
Twin Kids you will
Please watch lady in the tramp! It is one of my absolute favorites!!
Wow Dave! Doing the lord's work! the lord of course being Disney. lol...
Hahah, that I am, sir!
9:08 You Put 1969 instead of 1959
