Review of Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971) by Isaac T — 26 Mar 2014
"Traguna, Mekoides, Trecorum, Satis dee." The Disney classic Bedknobs and Broomsticks is a whimsical adventure. The film has a fairly good cast, which includes Angela Lansbury, David Tomlinson, and Roddy McDowall, and features several fun musical numbers.
Based on a children's book, the story follows an aspiring witch who's studying witchcraft in order to help with England's war effort during World War II. There's a bit of an odd tone to the film, with the mixing of World War II elements and fantasy, and the combining of animation with live-action also seems rather out of place.
While it has its shortcoming, Bedknobs and Broomsticks still has that Disney magic.
