Back in 1961, Walt Disney got a little hip with 101 Dalmatians, making use of that flat Saturday morning cartoon style that had become so popular. The result is a kitschy change in animation and story. Pongo and Perdita are two lonely dalmatians who meet cute in a London park and arrange for their pet humans to marry so they can live together and raise a family. They become proud parents of 15 pups, who are stolen by the dastardly Cruella De Vil, who wants to make a fur coat out of them. Cruella has become the most popular villain in all of Disney; she's flamboyantly nasty and lots of fun. But it's the dalmatians who shine in this endearing classic, particularly those precocious pups. Telling the story from the dogs' point of view is a clever conceit, a fundamental flaw of the live-action remake. --Bill Desowitz
Description:
Full of boundless adventure and boisterous fun, Disney's 17th animated masterpiece is the original film classic starring 101 of the world's most lovable, huggable Dalmatians and their hilariously evil captor, Cruella De Vil! A charming London neighborhood is home to Roger and Anita, whose beloved Dalmatians, Pongo and Perdita, have become the proud parents of 15 puppies. But when Cruella and her bumbling henchmen, Horace and Jasper, unexpectedly appear, the pups soon disappear -- along with every other Dalmatian puppy in town! Now Pongo and Perdita must rally their animal friends and use the power of the "Twilight Bark" to find Cruella's secret hideaway and free the puppies. Featuring the unforgettable toe-tapping song "Cruella De Vil," 101 DALMATIANS is one of the most cherished and sought-after Disney classics of all time -- and among the last films to bear the personal touch of Walt Disney.

- Great Movie for All Ages
101 Damatians is one of the best Disney animated films. Its plot never seems to be overbearing it is a story that just happens. The art is also completely incredible. There is much more of a 'hand-drawn' feel to this film than many other animated films, you can see the structure points of the dalmatians and the brushstrokes in the background. The colors on the DVD are phenomonal, much richer than my old VHS.
And the special features on this DVD are among the best Disney has offered. The pop ... Read More

- perfect for disney fan
disney movies are desired by anyone with children, especially girls, the problem is they are very difficult to find. i looked in all the major stores for dvds to purchase and asked around, and was always told the same thing, they only come out during certain times, they arent produced anymore etc. so i got the next best thing, vhs. Vhs movies are easy to find online and considerably cheaper than purchasing a dvd. most are used, but in very excellent condition depending upon which seller you choose. ... Read More

- Making Technical Lemonade out of Lemons
The skyrocketing cost of continuing to do a full-length animated feature with the classic hand-inked cells and the need for another Disney blockbuster handed Walt Disney with a basket of lemons; which he then turned into lemonade when his studio adaptedDodie Smith's modern-day doggie adventure story. With the usual Disney changes, of course - simplifying the story, merging some characters and omitting some incidents, and adding one of the most flamboyant and malevolently hilarious villainesses ever ...
