The Aristocats (1970)
Directed by Wolfgang Reitherman
When Madame Adelaide Bonfamille leaves her fortune to Duchess and her children—Bonfamille’s beloved family of cats—the butler plots to steal the money and kidnaps the legatees, leaving them out on a country road. All seems lost until the wily Thomas O’Malley Cat and his jazz-playing alley cats come to the aristocats’ rescue.

What critics compared The Aristocats to
Better Tagline: "From the creators of The Aristocats and Treasure Planet ."
“We keep the Crab Nebula and the White Dwarf from tearing each other’s eyes out,” explained one of the many CGI creations in this movie that made it so resemble a cartoon I thought I was watching an unauthorized sequel to The Aristocats, and God only knows nobody would authorize such a sequel.
That 1997 movie was the first time many American filmgoers entered Miyazaki’s world of myth, magic and lyrical, finely detailed imagery; happily, there are now generations of children who have grown up cherishing such Miyazaki classics as “My Neighbor Totoro,” “Kiki’s Delivery Service,” “Spirited Away” and “Howl’s Moving Castle” the way their parents played and re-played “Snow White,” “101 Dalmatians” and “The Aristocats.”
