Those tuning in to “Lady and the Tramp” may notice some changes from the 1955 original. The movie has replaced the racially offensive “Siamese Cat Song” with a new version. The director says it honors the story point of the villainous cats in a new way. The cats are also no longer Siamese and they appear in a new scene. The movie is streaming on Disney-plus. Disney has added content warnings of “Outdated Cultural Depictions” in some of the older movies like “Dumbo” and “Peter Pan.”
Disney Plus launched on Tuesday.
