I remember watching this at the Drive In


in the late 70's from the top of the station wagon. This is a movie nobody ever seems to remember or talk about. I always thought it was a great kids movie. Funny the magic that these shows had back then when you'd watch them. Miss that era.

I do,too. Back in 1971., And (as I first learned in the original 1973 edition of Leonard Maltin's breakthrough and much-beloved book, "The Disney Fims "(in 1974, when I really got into reading it, around the time Muppet historian Christopher Finch's own important 1973 book on Disney first came out) how BEDKNOBS AND BROOMSTICKS was intended as an alternative, just in case MARY POPPINS didn't work out, and in fact BEDKNOBS AND BROOMSTICKS was bought by Walt Disney before MARY POPPINS. In fact Richard and Robert Sherman, Mr.Maltin says, wrote thew score for both at the same time! That era's missed by me,too.. but you can rewatch them again on video..
