  • This was my favorite part besides the battle at the end. I wanted to fly around with the clothes lol

  • This was always one of my favorites, even over Mary Poppins. The suits of armor fight off the Nazis and I love this song 'Substitutiary Locomotion'. I have the soundtrack and the movie. :)

  • Treguna, Makoidees, Trecorum, Sadis Dee!

  • Angela Landsbury in the best role of her career.

    And she had, and still have a lot of great roles, including Jessica Fletcher.

    Well done, Angela:

    Treguna Mekoides and Tracorum Satis Dee

  • This song has been stuck in my head for days. "XD Lovely, isn't it? Great film though, one of my favorites. These effects are much better than CGI.

  • @RedPieFace1 I believe so. It's been so long since I've seen the full picture, but he is in the movie as Mister Jelk.

  • @RedPieFace1 Yes, Roddy McDowall is the minister.

  • This will forever be one of my favorite movies. Still makes me laugh after all these years.

  • The good old times when movies were fully a work of art and not computer generated diseases.

  • Ah! Demon nightgown! XD

  • When my cousin first saw this movie when he and I were children, he got so excited afterwards that it he talked me into helping him try it ... nothing happened. :-(

  • my all time childhood favourite and still...love it...i still have got its VHS with me...

  • At around 2:43 you can see the strings on Ms. Price's nightgown. This movie+Mary Poppins=DISNEY AWESOMENESS!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @MediaLover194 I'm lucky to own a double dvd set with both movies

    still miss movies like these

  • I remember having this movie on VHS :)

  • The reverend's terrified look and yell at the oncoming nightgown is priceless- I burst out laughing every time!

    "Do you mind?!" XD

  • The cat's like, "What the fuck....-_-"

  • good old days! must have watched this film hundreds as a child....(no over exaggeration) ;D

  • i cannot believe how mangy that cat is.

  • Thumbsup if you always sing along to this 8D

  • @CarlyAKACmara and by clicking my fingers

  • So Sherman Brothers. haha I love it!

  • That yell at 3:48 is just the greatest XD

  • Anybody else chanting the spell to make it work? Nope, just me.

  • @lucyaliceee i tried it hehehe

  • His shoes did the first Moonwalk.

  • That Cat is like WTF is going on.

  • Disney before High School Musical and Hannah Montana shit!

  • Ah, you know when the nightgown, cutlass, and such come marching through the door, it's all gonna turn ugly. I love how the cat is all, "Oh for fuck's sake!" I'm so glad they have this on DVD!

  • How annoying. All the lyrics sites have one of the lines wrong in the song and if they didn't just copy and paste from each others site, maybe they'd make better websites.

  • I was five living in a fundamentalist household, and we had to burn this VHS because of witchcraft!

  • @deflowering2by2 I grew up in a fundamentalist household too. I know how crazy it can be. I got some things of mine burned too. Crazy!

  • @LoreneFaith that is funny that you had similar experiences. Well, not funny haha but ya know. :) Let us hope we can both recover from all the trauma : /

  • @deflowering2by2 I have recovered by staying away from fundamentalist as much as possible. I hate fox news and Palin, Beck, and Rush. My family thinks they are all speaking the truth and that I am the deceived one. I personally think that Jesus was a socialist. This is what all of these goons are afraid of. If you listen to the words of Jesus, they are all living the opposite of what he stood for.

  • @LoreneFaith Amen Sister! :) ... It is sad that you seem a bit estranged from your family. Hopefully you guys can still get along. My family are all fundamentalists, but they pretty much are used to me being "really out there" when it comes to my not "believing" the way they do. Yes, the Jesus of the gospels is the exact opposite of modern Christianity. Of course. The problem is that irrational belief will never yield to rational logic. That is why you just have to follow Jesus' example and love

  • @deflowering2by2 I do spend some time with my family but it is a superficial relationship. There is so much I cannot talk with them about because we are extreme opposites. I still love them in spite of it all. I know they will never change but then neither will I. I agree, follow Jesus example. I watched "Ben Hur" today and it always makes me cry because of the real love of Christ.

  • @LoreneFaith I heard this quote from an author named Thomas Campbell: "Love is unconditional. If it is conditional, then it's not love." I thought that was great... LOL at Ben Hur. I grew up on that! I was allowed to watch as much violence as possible, but when they even HINTED at sex in a movie, it was gone! HOOWWW backwards! Violence should be the bad thing not sex/love. Not saying Ben Hur was that violent, just in general.

  • @deflowering2by2 I totally agree. You have to have violence and love to tell most of the stories out there. I just went and saw the newest Harry Potter movie last night and really enjoyed it as I have all of the Harry Potter movies. My brothers and I were all told of the evils of Harry Potter but at least two of my brothers and myself love the Harry Potter stories.

  • @deflowering2by2 I unfortunatley went thru the same experience as you both. All my disney movies were destroyed when I was little. Now I am obssesed with owning every single classic disney movie that was taken away from me.

  • @MrNamelessVoice Wow! The Bookman made a Youtube account just too dislike this. I hope that his world is happier now.

  • Paul says "Lummy!" -- and after some Googling, it appears that "Lummy!" is short for "[God] love me!" -- not to be confused with "Blimey!", which is short for "[God] blind me!".

    He also says "Cor!", which is a euphemistic mispronunciation of "God!" -- so "Cor blimey!" means something like "May God blind me if I'm not seeing what I think I'm seeing!"

  • @ThrobertMcGee Thank you for posting this information. I need to start trying this lingo out in my own vocabulary :)

  • @LoreneFaith:

    No problem, Lorene! BTW, I would make a guess -- and this is ONLY a guess -- that "God love me!" ("Lummy!") probably started out as a polite substitute for "Well, f**k me!" or "Bugger me!" in the sense of "Well, I'll be damned!"

    Again, don't quote me on this because it's a guess, but English is definitely full of "polite" exclamations that were originally either very blasphemous, very toilet-y, or very sexual!

  • @ThrobertMcGee Well all I can say is, its very interesting trivia.

  • I believe the expression is lummy.

  • @ThePainVendors Lummy? Never heard that one before.

  • What did Paul say just after the knock at the door and the clothes invited themselves in? It sounds like an exclamation - probably a very old expression. I'm sure Phyllis from The Railway Children says it too when Bobbie chases the train a few yards in her reluctance to say goodbye to Jim the hound, and finally lets go of his hand. Phyllis uses that same expression I'm sure, and Peter says, "They'll have to marry now" and Phyllis repeats the expression. I'm not sure how it's spelt ...

  • @Ilovecats112233 I have no idea. Thanks for pointing this out. Maybe someone out there will have the answer.

  • @Ilovecats112233 I'm pretty sure he just says blimey!

  • @Ilovecats112233 it is a british slang word that means holy cow the word was blimey had to ask parents about it because they are from england

  • @jelloman36 I'm from England myself! I'm very familiar with the word 'blimey' and realised the word Paul used sounded similar, but I was sure it was something else that both he and Phyllis had said, perhaps because of the pronouncation. For one thing I didn't hear a 'b' sound. My exclamations tend to be "Oh heck" or "Good grief", "Oh crumbs", that sort of thing, although these are not typical of my age group. Ever heard Jiminy Cricket, Jumping Jiminy or Christopher Columbus?

  • @Ilovecats112233 sounded like "lummy!" or "blimey!"

  • Happy 85th birthday Angela Lansbury!

  • @WillScarlet16 Yes Happy Birthday Angela! You are a doll and we will always love you!

  • can i ask a favour from the maker of this video :) ??

    could you do somelyrics cos i allways forget the word to the chant

    haha xx

  • Favourite Song Of My Favourite Disney Film! Best British Film Ever, With The Best British Actress!

  • shes like: why the F*CK aren't those shoes moving?!!

  • Ms. Price sounds like a sat nav. I feel embarrassed when she dances, much as a teenager does when their parents dance!

  • @Ilovecats112233 So what are you saying, that only kids can have fun?

  • @Ilovecats112233 I hope that you can still have fun in life when you are passed 20.

  • @LoreneFaith Ha ha yes I hope so, but Ms. Price wriggling her body at does send me into fits of hysterical giggles, which is what Uncle Dave does to Grandma on the rare occasion that we can persuade him to perform the River Dance.

  • @Ilovecats112233 Now that sounds like something fun to watch. Go Uncle Dave :)

  • I watched this movie every chance I got when I was six just so I could memorize that spell.

  • 3:20 heheh!

  • My all time favorite Disney movie from 1971. This is also my favorite song from this movie. Sometimes I'll be in a quiet room, and subconsciously start humming this song! LOL!

  • I used to roll in the floor in uncontrolled laughter for the whole of this song its just sooooo funny. I love the way they lose complete control of the clothes.

  • A-MAZ-ING! 

  • She did become my best friend – in the story, that is. She’s not real. Her home was like Mr. Tumnus’s cave, and she invited me to tea. Our one-to-one tutor did have to monitor her behaviour carefully so that she wouldn’t get herself into trouble, though for poor old Maddie, a place where there isn’t any trouble must be over the rainbow. She might have been a witch, but didn’t know it at first.

  • @Ilovecats112233 I like Maddie. She sounds like a wonderful character. Keep writing. You are good at it :)

  • Thanks Lorene Faith, you're kind to say that. Madeline has some similarities with the jolly uncle from Mary Poppins (I know you've posted some of the songs). She has fits of hysterical laughter at things others merely chuckle at, and she's a sissy too - cowers behind furniture at scary films and has lots of phobias, including blood and spiders! She was half broken-hearted when I had to go home and leave her all alone again. It made me feel really guilty when she pleaded with me to stay!

  • She’s not at all shy of strangers either. She’ll go up to anybody on the bus and show them the photos of her cats, and drift into a monologue about all the cats she’s ever had, where they’re from and the precise date of their adoption. She can’t stand noise and chaos, and starts at the slightest sound or movement – she’s just like a cat in that respect.

  • Maddie stares at everything and everyone for too long, sits in awkward positions (one might be unlucky enough to catch a glimpse of long frilly knickers) and doesn’t seem to understand boundaries about grooming others or playing with soft-looking hair or trying to hold hands. She’s too quick to believe somebody is her best friend.

  • On an average day she might wear woolly cardigans, shabby dresses that are too big for her, stockings and sensible shoes, and when she feels like it she might wear her best fur coat and high heels. The handbag that she always carries around contains lipstick, powder, perfume, a mirror, handkerchiefs, teabags and photographs of her cats. She isn’t even that old.

  • I'm writing a story about a lady that's a bit like Ms. Price. Her name's Madeline Barlow, and she lives alone in a cottage with six, eight or nine cats (have not yet decided exactly how many cats she has). She's a spinster with no friends and few living relatives. The main difference between her and Ms. Price is that Maddie does long for human contact and is warm, kind and chatty, but lives in severe isolation.

  • this song has burned into my mind and all i hear i substituray locomotion and im living it

  • @kicked123456

    So if you are living it, are you making inanimate objects move?

  • @LoreneFaith im rather embarrsed common spelling error ment to say loving it :P

  • How they made all those thing come to life?

  • omg i love this movie! its one of my favorites! now im goin 2 go watch it :)

  • naffinn appenn

  • Roddy McDowell versus the amorous nightgown- awesomeness

  • madness at its best

  • as a famous Austrian elite remarked around the time of Napolean "the English are part of the continent separated by language, customs and their peculiar manners"

    Go Us! lol

  • it's dork sided! DORK SIDED!

  • Why did Carrie cover Paul's mouth at 0:09

  • @YoshiIguana698 Because he was breaking concentration.

  • @LoreneFaith It doesn't matter, Carrie is a bunch of BS.

  • This video is most agreeable :P

  • Treguna Mekoides Trecorum Satis Dee

  • I watched this movie a week ago for the first time (I'm 22) and I liked it very much, but I think I would ave liked it more when I was a child. A same I missed it. I'm a complete fan of Mary Poppins (I watched that movie a lot of times when I was younger) and it is quite similar to this (flying women, painted figures, same actor, children, songs, enz.) Just lovely.

  • ATTENTION

    I tried this

    NOTHING happened.

  • do it with a flair!

  • thank you for the memories!

  • I expect Ms. Price's neighbours always thought she was stubborn, aloof and eccentric, but now they know that there's something going on in her house that must be magic!

  • @Ilovecats112233 I can just hear them, "She always was a bit peculiar".

  • omg i missed this film so much i loved it when i was a lil girl :D

  • @simie123 I loved this too when I was a lil girl! ...wait... I'm a guy.

  • one of my faves from the old movies. love it!

  • Naffing Happened! lol

  • I want childhood back! This song is engraved in my mind, and will probably never leave. Good times!

  • It is a great song to have in your head though, don't you think?

  • In the stories the cats are personified and attend school as adolescents (kattens). Lola wears stockings and old-fashioned glasses, she's very factual and logical, numbers are her only friends, she loves hamsters more than other cats, she can fix any mechanical problem, she tells her classmates off when they misbehave and says "I detest unruly behaviour", she loves assembly, hates a seating plan or furniture being moved round or changing classrooms, doesn't like being touched ...

  • A witch that lives alone except for her cat ... at least she's only got one cat! If I ever have a house of my own, I might have two to four cats, but no more than four or they'd feel suffocated. I want to get them from a rescue shelter where the conditions are poor. Imagine if Miss Price was trapped in the body of a teenager and had to face school (but still dressed old-fashioned). She could be my friend and I'd stick up for her if she got bullied. My cat Lola is like her in my stories.

  • this is a brilliant movie..this and portobello road are the best bits but its all good! class

  • makes me laugh so hard!!!! I love this scene!!! Everytime never gets old!!!

  • whihi the cat looks soooow salem-like thx

  • What a classic! Brings back childhood memories.

  • @Kelhibbert

    I can't tell you how many times I tried to do this as a child

  • haha, I love how Cosmic Creepers is just staring at them. In his eyes, he is saying, "boy, what idiots." hahaha

  • I wish they'd release the full soundtrack, not the redone version with half the songs either resung or removed entirely. But I guess that's the risk of using Eastman stock film: all the originals are crumpled to dust! Such a great, fun movie deserves a re-release..

  • Heh, I dunno... I was never freaked out by this scene! I always found it jolly funny! XD

  • the best scene is probably this one, in my opinion =)

  • haha so funny.

    poor cat

  • Cosmic Creeper. :)

  • paul has the cutest munchkin voice! this is such a great scene, so well done for what little sfx technology they had then!

  • omg I love how the nightgown wants to dance

  • how did I not think this was creepy when I was a kid..?

  • the floating dresses and hats freak me out!

  • there is something soooo beautiful about lansbury in this movie.

  • the cat's like ummm okay....

    haha

  • she looks like myra hindley

  • Yes.... people burst into song and get attacked by dancing clothes.....

  • lol thats great

  • LOL the priest

  • oh i love this film!

    Watching it so many times....

    Angela Lansbury was brilliant.

  • I've always loved when Paul says "Cool!" At least, I THINK that's what he's saying. He has such a thick Cockney accent that it's hard to tell.

  • I think he says 'cor'. It's a brit thing...

  • It was a brit thing, it hasn't been for a long time

  • simply epic , i remmebr watching that over and over as a kid

  • I never forgot this movie, even that I

    don't remember all the cenes .....

  • 3:19- 3:24

    Mr. Brown getting punched in the face then Paul getting kicked in the face ROFLMAO!!!

  • one of the best older disney movies for sure

  • Comment removed

  • Pandemonium!

  • This was on the other day :)

    Love it

  • lol, even now, I still love this film...

    And I've recently learned that my whole class knows this song off by heart...

    we got into a bit of a surreal situation, but oh well ^.^

  • How fun :)

  • I get a lovely warm feeling inside when I hear this music...do you know, my classmates laughed at it mockingly when we watched a clip in school? Morons.

  • I know what you mean by the warm feeling. A lot of Disney movies give me that feeling. Your classmates don't know what they are missing. People often laugh at what they don't understand. I am glad that you dare to be different. Never lose that, it will take you many places that the others cannot go :)

  • thats cuz they didnt watch it when they were kids. Just one of the many opportunities they were denied I assume.

  • Oh what a film. My childhooood <3333

  • that's my night gown!

    Is it really?

    Yes and I'm not responsible for its behaviour

    LOL
