The delight in Wolfgang Reitherman's turn-of-the-century movie, set in a charmingly detailed Paris, is the brilliant matching of voices to visuals. Hermione Baddeley voices the aristo-owner of elegant feline Duchess (Eva Gabor) who, with her three kittens, is befriended by Phil Harris's alley cat after the butler, Edgar (Roddy Maude-Roxby), has tried to do away with them because the old lady has left everything to the cats in her will. The Sherman brothers' songs are out of the top drawer.

Forgotten Disney Classic
Why didn't this make the big time?
Lovely scenes, the dogs are the best!
THe cats are just soo cute. If you like cats, get this one.
One bad point - the DVD I got had a small scratch which mean you lose about 2 mins of the film. -

THE TRUE CLASSIC!
Being a Walt Disney addict seing this movie as a kid was obviously going to be something brilliant. ' The Aristocats' sees a french Madame and her pet cats: the mother is Duchess and her kittens are Berlios, Tolouse & Marie. basically these kittens live in Paris with Madame but then the evil butler Edgar sends them down the river so he can gain the Madame's inheritance/fortune. this film has it all + a little mouse nad some cool alleycats but the best is Thomas 0' Malley who is really cool.
