While at Grandma and Grandpa’s house last week, we watched The Lady and the Tramp with the kids. Hey, that’s a good movie!
They had it on VHS—old school!
The score by Oliver Wallace is charming, and when the main “playful” theme for Lady came in, I was like, wait, I know this melody. It starts at 0:27 of the above.
But I hadn’t seen the film, or heard the soundtrack, since I was a kid myself.
Then I remembered...
And I see that the top comment on the Pee-Wee video is all about the similarity.
My question to film-score land: Has this come up before? Did Danny do it on purpose or did he just accidentally quote something from the recesses of memory?
Either is fine, really. Just curious!
Wow, that *is* similar...
