anyone else here thinks the crotchety old fairy is a bit too err...eccentric? the dialogue and speech impediments dont feel like she was from the portrayed time era. besides, she was wearing a quilted blanket. weirdo meter went off the charts, dude. diggin' the busty cat lady tho.
"You can't be unhappy inside yourself without making others unhappy too." War is the answer to all your unhappiness, if you're unhappy enough. Happiness is more important than people give it credit for being, it is true. It's great that this movie can be seen on YouTube these days when so many voices are promoting more wars.
This looks beautiful. It has always been overshadowed by The Wizard Of Oz because it was made in direct competition with it, and is the film that Shirley Temple made instead of playing Dorothy. I would like to see the whole movie
Thank you so very much for uploading this movie. This is one of my favorites of all time and a childhood favorite that will forever be close to my heart. Rev. Mel Smith
I absolutlely ADORE Shirley Temple and the other girl, the sick one, played in THE LITTLE PRINCESS with Shirley as Becky, the little maid who lived in the attic with her. But this movie is awful hate to say it. I guess when THE WIZARD OF OZ was taken away from Shir;ey, they had to come up with something to spare her feelings, Imagine, THE WIZARD OF OZ is still box office dynamite. Poor Shirley.
@AllieCat356 Taken away? No, she couldn't sing well enough that's why she didn't give her the part, thank God. She would have ruined it with her baby talk. They needed someone who could play a young girl but still have some maturity about her AND sing, like Judy Garland!
lol i <3 how the dog and cat turned into humans!!! i heard that dogs look up to us as masters, while cats think they r more superior than we r (which of course they are :D) so its funny to c that these personalities come out in those 2 :D
wow... one thing i don't understand... why the b&w turns into colour when the scene changes? isn't a mix from the 40's and the 70's film? or the original movie is coloured too? 'cause i don´t think so
@bellekd1413 It's a very poor transition to Technicolor -they should have changed to color when the fairy waves her wand for the light, or when she clothes them. It's awkward that they go to bed and then suddenly the dog's in color. This film tried to copy Oz but failed in many ways. But as a stand alone film, I think it's amazing - I love it and it's one of my favorite Shirley films! I love her playing a brat!

the one that is not, is the 1918.. that is the original movie
