Editorial Review: Description: Disney's 20th full-length animated masterpiece, THE ARISTOCATS is an unforgettable mix of wild adventure, colorful characters, and jazzy music your family will find absolutely irresistible! This enchanting tale begins in Paris, when a kind and eccentric millionairess wills her entire estate to her family -- a family of adorable high-society cats. But when Edgar, the greedy butler, overhears her plan, he catnaps Duchess, the elegant, soft-spoken mother, and her three mischievous kittens and abandons them in the French countryside. Soon, they're being escorted home by the charming Thomas O'Malley, a rough-and-tumble alley cat, who takes them to his "pad" along the way, where Scat Cat and his band of swingin' jazz cats perform the memorable "Ev'rybody Wants To Be A Cat." Enriched by "high-style Disney animation" (The New Yorker) and toe-tapping music by Academy Award(R)-winning songwriters the Sherman brothers (MARY POPPINS), THE ARISTOCATS is a timeless treasure and the last animated feature to get the nod from Walt Disney himself. Amazon.com: Duchess and her three kittens are enjoying the high life with their devoted human mistress until the wicked butler Edgar, with his eyes on a big inheritance, decides to dope them and get them out of the picture. How can these fragile creatures cope in the unfamiliar countryside and the meaner streets of Paris? Only by meeting the irrepressible alley cat O'Malley, a rough diamond with romance in his heart. After they get a taste of the wide dangerous world, he guides them home, and Edgar gets his just desserts at the wrong end of a horse. As always, it's really the voices rather than the animation that are the heart of the Disney magic: Phil Harris is brilliant as O'Malley, Eva Gabor as Duchess is... well... Eva Gabor; but perhaps the most memorable turns are by Pat Buttram and George Lindsay, who turn the old hounds Napoleon and Lafayette into a couple of bumbling Southern-fried rednecks. Their scenes with Edgar, and the musical numbers with Scat Cat and his cool-dude band, are classic. Most striking about seeing The Aristocats now is how deeply Disney's style of animation has changed since this was at the cutting edge in 1970. Perhaps the nostalgic, dated feel are just a result of being plonked down in Belle Epoque Paris, but the illustrations are fussier (a pity) and the animation and overall pace much less frenetic (sometimes a relief) than in more recent efforts such as Aladdin. --Richard Farr Average Rating:
 Rating:  - O'Malley Almost Ballou ItWhy do some rich, childless women leave their entire fortunes to pets--cats, in particular? The question can addle one's mind, even driving some to kidnapping and attempted murder. It completely freaked out Edgar, the much maligned butler in "The Aristocats," Disney's tribute not to cats, or the upper class--but to the jazz age. Edgar learns of his status in his boss's will by listening to a conversation through--what else?--a drain pipe in his tiny quarters. So that night he drugs ...

Set in Paris in 1910, the picture recounts the adventures of Duchess the cat and her three kittens, who are about to inherit the fortune of a wealthy opera singer. A jealous butler dumps the feline heirs out in the boondocks, and they try to find their way home with help from some amusing country cats. The animation of this era ...

Yes, it's kind of the same story, but with cats in Paris, but still so much better than most of the junk that is being put out now. Rating: - Great movieI really enjoy this movie and always have. It is colorful and the music is great. A wonderful family movie which is becoming slim these days. Rating: - Original spanish dubbing finally in this edition! 2008I'm happy to say that the new 2008 Special Edition has the original Spanish audio with German Valdez "Tin Tan" and other of the most exceptional dubbing actors of all time, despite what Amazon's technical details say. It is truly a joy to revisit my childhood by hearing the original voices I heard so long ago, with masterful performances that make you yearn for the golden age of Disney dubbing in Mexico. Esta nueva edición de 2008 contiene el doblaje original con Tin Tán en el papel de ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
