Lady and the Tramp DVD Now Out
Everyone can appreciate a classic movie. Especially Disney animated films. The amount of attention and love that goes into each movie is astounding and would be a shame to lose. Lady and the Tramp is one such movie. You don’t realize how good it is until you see it again.
The story line is timeless the characters are memorable and the scenes with Lady and Tramp falling in love are breathtaking. The only flaw you could say about it is, no blu ray and a lack of extras. Disney decided to remedy this that with their new Diamond Edition release of Lady and The Tramp. In this release there is both the blu ray and DVD disc as well as hours and hours of extras including deleted scenes and songs, a memoir by Diane Disney Miller to her father Walt Disney and so much more.
This movie is great to share with the [Read more…]
