Directed by Clyde Geronimi, Wilfred Jackson and Hamilton Luske, and produced by Walt himself, the sweet 2D tale revolves around star-crossed canine lovers Lady (voiced by Barbara Luddy), a pampered cocker spaniel, and Tramp (Larry Roberts), a freewheeling mutt with a heart of gold. The film features a score composed by Oliver Wallace, with songs by popular recording artist Peggy Lee (with Sonny Burke), who also provided the vocals for “La La Lu,” “The Siamese Cat Song” and “He’s a Tramp.”

The Disney Signature Collection includes the original theatrical edition, Sing-Along Mode and Inside Walt’s Story Meetings viewing options.
