fabulous and fantastic and probably disney best musical adventure . i have love this film for over 35 year because it be so imaginative and clever and fun . even despite the silly fly bed scene and the other scene and dialog be magical and funny . could they have pick anyone well than angela lansbury to play eglantine . i can not think of anyone more suited to the role . remake this classic would be as stupid a remake mary poppins . david tomlinson and though he have few quality movie role and absolutely shine in this adventure . he be a comic genius who be often forgotten nowadays . blustering and prim and proper englishman nobody could really do slapstick and pull it off as gracefully a he do . it would be tragic to remake this film because tomlinson have be decease for a few year and nobody could step into his shoe and do his character justice . the dancing nightgown and armor have a magical aura about them that other movie with witch just do not capture . i particularly enjoy the part where the german invade eglantine house and she must defend it in any way she can . bob along and bob along on the bottom of the beautiful briny and sea . richard and robert sherman outdo themselves on the musical number . all of them be fantastic and worth remembering and portobello road be one of my favorite . a great film that still hold up today .
