action
Cocker Spaniel Lady Susi (originally Lady ) is the darling of the Darling couple. Susi gets along well with her neighbor dogs Jock ( Yock ), a Scottish Terrier , and Pluto ( Trusty ), a Bloodhound . One day the stray dog Tramp , a mixed breed dog , runs by and warns Susi that everything will change as soon as her owners have a baby. This situation occurs soon afterwards, and Susi is already receiving less attention from her owners. The problems get out of hand when Susi's owners go on vacation and let her aunt Clara (originally Sarah ) take care of the baby and Susi: Clara's Siamese cats Si and Am destroy the apartment and make it look like Susi is the perpetrator, which is why you then put a muzzle on her. She then flees because she can no longer bear her home. On the run, she meets the stray rascal again, who later accompanies her to a beaver in the zoo. With the help of a bite, the lisping rodent frees Susi from the muzzle. Susi falls in love with the Tramp, but is quickly separated from him: a dog catcher catches her. In the dog shelter she learns about the rascal's dissolute love life and begins to hate him. But not only their relationship is in danger, but also the baby of Susi's owners when a rat enters the nursery. Tramp quickly rushes to the rescue and kills the aggressive beast. When the aunt notices the noise of the fight, she rushes into the nursery and catches the rescuer because she mistakenly believes that the rascal wants to attack the baby. She overlooks the dead rat lying behind a curtain. The aunt immediately calls the dog catcher, who arrives a few minutes later to lead the tramp away. Susi's neighbor dogs Jock and Pluto observe the incident and realize that they were wrong about the rascal's wild and aimless behavior. Both set off in search of the dog catcher's carriage. In order for the rascal to avoid death in the dog shelter, the carriage must be overtaken. However, the liberation action comes to a tragic end: Pluto gets under the carriage when it tips over, breaks his right foreleg and loses consciousness in shock. After the release, the Tramp finds his place in the heart of Susi and finally a sedentary life with the Darling family. A few months later the family is enjoying a merry Christmas Eve with their child and the puppies of Lady and the Tramp who have already been born. Jock and Pluto also appear at the festival and visit the young dog family. Pluto, drawn from the accident with the carriage, has a bandage around his front paw and is celebrated as a hero. Pluto uses the fact that he is the center of attention to tell the puppies more anecdotes from his "heroic" life, which adds to the general amusement.
Production history
Legend has it that Walt Disney came up with the idea for this film when he gave his wife a puppy for Christmas by hiding it in a gift box. He wanted to make up for a forgotten appointment, which he succeeded. Disney, according to legend, thought this could also be a good starting point for a movie. Then Walt Disney acquired the rights to Ward Greene's Dan, the Whistling Dog , a book that only served as a rough inspiration for Lady and the Tramp .
In fact, the film was inspired by Joe Grant , who had been working on a story about a springer spaniel named Lady, who was inspired by his own pet, for several years. Grant finally got this project through, but it was repeatedly rewritten. At the beginning, the film was only about the lady and her problems with two Siamese cats and their feelings about the baby being overtaken by the baby in terms of popularity with masters. When Walt Disney read the story of Dan, the Whistling Dog (sometimes called Dan, the cynical Dog ) in the Cosmopolitan , he suggested that the good lady be paired with a dog like Dan. This, in his opinion, should add momentum to the plot. It was also Walt Disney himself who ordered that the book for the film, written by Ward Green, be released two years before its release date, which it did. It was hoped that the characters and story would gain some popularity by the time the film was released.
In the meantime, based on these facts, Disney historians have dubbed Lady and the Tramp as the first Disney masterpiece with its own, newly invented plot.
Even if the characters of the figures are humanized to a certain extent, their movements and their appearance are adapted to real animals. But this was not a particularly big challenge for the draftsman, because, according to Ollie Johnston , gradually one could recognize human traits in the dogs. For Susi the cocker spaniel lady of a draftsman was the model, for the tramp a female stray who was rescued from the dog catcher. After production, this bitch spent the rest of her life in the backstage area of the petting zoo in Disneyland , where she was well looked after.
Living models were not only used for the dogs: Wolfgang Reitherman had a cage full of rats in his office so that he could study their movements and incorporate the observations into the work on the fight scene between the rascal and the rat. Now and then you had to break away from the models: Susi should also move like a lady, so that you had to "feminize" her behavior pattern. Ignoring animal behavior should be even more momentous at another point: the famous scene in the backyard of Toni's restaurant is based on observations of people eating by Frank Thomas . He also came up with the idea that the tramp would roll the last ball of meat over to Susi. This was not included in the original storyboard. The draftsman also came up with the idea that the folds of Pluto slide forwards and backwards with its movements. By the way, Pluto was supposed to die at the end of the film, where he stopped the dogcatcher to save the rascal. However, Walt Disney decided against it because he did not want the controversies over the death of Bambi's mother to be repeated.
Even more scenes from the film were deleted: a nightmare sequence in which Susi is chased by slippers was canceled, as was the sequence in which the rascal imagines what it would be like if dog and human swapped roles. But not only the plot changed, the names were always changed: originally Homer, this character was renamed Rags and Bozo before they agreed on Tramp. The Siamese cats Si and Am were first called Nip and Tuck. With the exception of Lady, all names have been changed several times. The German synchronization was no exception: Lady became Susi, Tramp became Tramp, Trusty became Pluto.

Below is a list of the original and German-speaking speakers.

Reviews
“The timeless love story of the cocker lady and the sympathetic street dog Trolch. An emotional and humorous cartoon adventure, which, with its detailed backgrounds and atmospheric atmosphere, is the most elegant of Disney's later productions. The self-ironic attitude also carries overly sweet scenes [...] The highlights are the "classic" love scene in the backyard of a trattoria and the pathetic dog asylum. "
“42 years after its premiere in the USA, this masterpiece of animation has lost none of its charm! 'Lady and the Tramp', produced personally by Walt Disney, is probably one of the most charming animated films that has ever been made. "
"Lady and the Tramp is a humorous and happy movie pleasure, but may cause some adults a bit of trouble with their praises of the ideal family life."
"Super family fun for all ages!"
“A delicious cartoon (...) humorous and resourceful, amiable and warm-hearted. Also worth seeing for younger generations. "
