    Edit
    • Trivia
      When Glenn Close appeared on the set as Cruella in full fright wig, make-up, and costume, one of the dogs playing Perdy repeatedly tried to sneak away.
    • Goofs
      Raccoons and skunks are not native to Britain. However, there are some feral populations there, descending from animals imported for fur, consistent with the movie's theme.
    • Quotes

      Cruella De Vil: [to Anita] More good women have been lost to marriage than to war, famine, disease and disaster. You have talent, darling. Don't squander it.

    • Crazy credits
      After the end credits, Cruella's laugh can be heard as the Walt Disney logo appears.
    • Alternate versions
      UK theatrical version had some dialogue substituted to secure a 'U' rating.

    Fine, fine film. As good as the animated version, but different!
    Incredible as it may seem, this film is every bit the equal of the Disney animated version of the same title. And it is DIFFERENT from the Disney version. This is a rare accomplishment, in a medium where remakes and sequels are so often weak.

    The film is made by Glen Close, whose appearance as Cruella DeVil is fascinating! She is even more evil than her animated namesake. But the rest of the casting of the film is also incredibly strong. No problems with anyone.

    The dalmations are most excellently employed. Virtually seamless integration of live action and computer animation. And also, the hosts of animals (live and animated) in the film do NOT talk (a cloying and sentimental habit too often indulged in by Disney Studios et al).

    The film is an adult's movie that children should also enjoy! The VHS version was good, the DVD version even better.
