The Aristocats
Director: Wolfgang Reitherman
Year: 1970
Stars: Phil Harris, Eva Gabor (voices)
OK, I confess - I've never seen this. Probably mostly due to it never having been on terrestrial TV (not sure why, but apparently today's Channel 5 showing was a premiere).
The plot follows Duchess and her three kittens as they are kidnapped from their Parisisan mansion and left to fend for themselves in the French countryside.
It really is a great Disney classic, with cute animals, memorable songs and a sweet storyline. Very definitely a children's movie, Dan and I both still enjoyed it as adults. A Disney film made when Disney was great.
Rating: 4 out of 5
Watching films is one of my favourite hobbies. Often the films I watch aren't the biggest, or newest, films of the moment - but smaller independent movies, things on late night TV, or simply films I missed first time around. Not to say that the latest cinema releases don't get a look-in: my tastes are pretty diverse and I'll give almost any film a chance! This blog aims to reflect something of that diversity, reviewing as many of the films that I've watched since November 2008 as possible.

About Me
- Anna Lawson
- I live in Bristol with my husband Dan (who I married in July 2007), my son Joe (born 2012) and daughter Jess (born 2015). I work at UWE (the University of the West of England) in Bristol as a Research and Open Access Librarian. I'm orginally from Exeter, so moving back to Bristol is a bit like coming home - especially as I studied for my undergraduate degree here (also at UWE). I love travelling and movies, although I get to do a lot less of both since the birth of our children. Although we have still managed to fit in holidays to the Isles of Scilly, Chamonix and a summer in California since Joe was born.
