All these years later I’m getting choked up with nostalgia and an adult understanding of how serious it is. I now feel connected with Angela’s character rather than just the little girl/big sister. I can imagine how much hope and fear channeled through our good witch’s mind as she did all she could to protect her homeland and family. She’s leading the charge of CENTURIES of brave people who fought for their homeland just like her.
This scene is one of my absolute favorites of all time. It carries so much weight seeing the massive force of animated armor lining up in preparation for a battle against evil. If Kingdom Hearts ever gave this movie tribute, it should be the armor army as a summon.
@@californiaslastgasp6847 The ones actively engaged in genociding MULTIPLE entire ethnicities. Soldiers always regret having to have fought, having to have killed But I guarantee if you ask them if the cause they fought for was worth it... they'd say YES.
I'm literally crying at this scene... I watched at 3 years old for the first time!!! All October I was trying to see this scene again after a mediocre show's weekend it's saddest me her departure... God bless her...
As a kid, I never really got how truly badass (is that okay to say about a Disney film?) this scene is. When I was little, I of course didn't understand Nazis or WWII, so I never really got the depth of how vital it was for this spell to work. As an adult now, I can see clearly how much hangs in the balance. Add to that the fact Angela Lansbury doesn't know if the spell will work, or (maybe worse yet) even if it does, she's not quite sure what will happen next and if she can even control it. That's a lot of tension built up at the beginning of this scene. Then when it does come together it does it so masterfully. But damn, I wish this clip was a little longer and included the soldiers' chant. I mean, DAMN. That was awesome.
I disagree. First of all, this small expeditionary force of the nazis stood no chance at all of conquering England. Second of all, if it WAS important, it would be a battle there would be records of, and it would be listed alongside the battle of the bulge, the battle of britain and D day. There literally was nothing in the balance here. This was an excursion of a small force into the freaking WILDERNESS in the UK for no particular reason. It would have made no difference in the outcome of WWII.
@@medexamtoolscom But it would have scared the metaphorical crap out of the German High command when they discover that a bunch of outdated military equipment came to life a whoop the asses of some of their men
I always thought a good sequel would show Carrie growing up and becoming another good Witch and following in Mrs Price steps and being a private investigator
Oh man!! I'm tearing up again...just seeing this scene!! Miss Englandtine Price, Apprentice Witch, calling upon all of the Forces Of Good, Of Ages Past, to come to her aid, and the aid of her counry, to defeat evil.....Go Miss Price!! Yes!!! I'm crying here......for joy....makes me feel like a little kid again.....
A moment of appreciation for the amazing collection of armour and weaponry in that small town museum 😂 quite the collection, the curators should be proud of it
I like how it is a whole mixture of historic soldiers - Heptarchy? - Viking/Saxon Medieval Civil War Royalists Hanoverians (the GR for the first Georges)
To be perfectly fair, that museum was supposed to be a castle, and since we never see the whole thing there could be whole heaps of stuff hidden away in other floors or rooms.
It's more than that, during the German Blitz of England, the British evacuated many of their relics from cities to rural locations like the castle in this movie so they wouldn't be bombed into oblivion. It's also partly why the the children themselves are there, to escape the bombing
i love you for posting this!! I shed a tear as it brought back some awesome childhood memories of watching this with my little brother while mom was in the kitchen making snacks and then us watching it again at grandma's house! :*)
Every time those bagpipes start wailing I just automatically throw a salute it has always been my favorite scene when I was a child. HaHa Scottish power, the Germans are defenseless against the march to the pipes.
I must say, if this had really happened in the Second World War it would have been so cool - the enemy getting beaten by knights in armour and old war costumes!
Closest thing you could compare it to is in the Great war at the Battle of Mons where at least according to BEF soldiers present (and even some Germans) an army of long bow wielding Angel's descended upon the Germans and with arrows of light drove them off. Course it being a legendary event and scepticism being what it and all.
If you want something eerie where Nazi’s got smoked by something supernatural…read about Nazi’s that journeyed to Castle Houska and settled there in 1945. Something happened there with Nazis.
As a kid I admit I used to fast forward this bit. I just hated it and thought it was boring. However as an adult what the hell was I thinking it was incredibly done and so patriotic! I guess I just didnt understand!
Flying Beds, Witches, Talking Fish, Talking Animals that play soccer, and to top it all off Floating Suits of Armor fighting Nazis. That is why Bedknobs and Broomsticks is one of the greatest movies of all time!
'Education for Death, the making of the Nazi' was a Disney short made during World War 2 as a propaganda film, others were made and distributed by RKO, Disney was about to go bankrupt after uncle waly blew a fourtune on fantasia so made these for the US government which saved the company. It's on you tube, strange watching to say the least.
Different countries would have different military uniform armies. The US one would include Revolutionary War uniforms, Union and Confederate uniforms. France's would include musketeer uniforms, Napoleonic war uniforms. Japan's would have samurai armor. etc.
I like that one very ancient suit of armor with the wings on the helmet and etc, even if it is likely very unhistorical. I wonder if it's supposed to be from the Celts or the Saxons (or similar ancient Germanic cultures).
Well and I could be mistaking, that the Gauls was used for the majority of the western Europe tribes, but like I said not sure and its around the time period where that helmet would fit, plus I have no idea how the Bits were called during that time period.
Hivedragon IIRC "Britons" was originally the (Roman) term for the Celts of Britain that were Brythonic or Goidelic rather than Gaelic. So, they'd have had a language and culture like that of the Welsh and Cornish, but not the Irish and Scots. Arthur was considered a Briton and enemy of the Saxons (which makes the English having him as their folk hero a little ironic). But the Gauls were mainly in France and certainly never came to the British Isles.
Apparently this movie was not very well received on its first conception... too much like 'Mary Poppins' though I can't personally see any resemblance: the fact they end up kicking the Nazi's butts is reason enough for this film to super duper awesome! Its one of my favourite Disney Movies of all time: original story and characters: best scene ever: Historial figures from all around the world stomping out Nazi's... and that is exactly what happened! woo!
+king of coolness I counted: English knights in melee fighting. Possibly some vikings in there as well, sometimes armour makes it hard to tell as a non-history major. English(?) longbowmen providing ranged support. Redcoats were there, but didn't seem to fire their guns... good point!
So there is going to be a Broadway musical of this. This was the first scene I was thinking is "is there going to be a song and dance number of dancing nazis fighting the undead soldiers?"

One of the most awesome scenes of the entire 70s.

Apparently the hilltop scene with everyone lined up was a shout out to a movie, I think it was Cleopatra, that did similar.

I still get goosebumps when the music starts, even after all these years.
Same here. I’m back 8 years later to watch this clip again. I still get goosebumps every freaking time. Like, full body, electric goosebumps.
@@mariecarie1it creeps me out when they sing in their deep voices.
2:23
"They brought the bagpipes?!"
"Of course they brought the bagpipes"
*sigh*
That's most epic part of the movie
Bagpipe part...goosebumps overload!
+vstavlic That's always been my favorite part!!!
You, too!?
Aye to that
I'm of Scottish and Irish heritage so I got incredible goosebumps when the bagpipes played
Thank you for everything, miss Price.
One of the most epic scenes in cinema history
"The way is shut. It was made by those who are dead, and the dead keep it. The way is shut."
Agreed.
Tlotr?
Punch to the throat with a steel gauntlet. OUCH! I remember watching this over and over as a kid. The bagpipes were always my favorite part.
I still laugh at that guy. I know he was wondering "WTF is going on in her...." WHOOOOOMP!
@@jamesbaggett7223my favourite is whej yhe german is gettjng made fun of woth yhe marching and butt kicking. 😂also yhe German in the metal trousers 😂
A moment of appreciation for the amazing collection of armour and weaponry in that small town museum 😂 quite the collection, the curators should be proud of it
Especially since it won a battle, and defended england!
Still gives me chills of excitement when she casts this spell
Apparently that sleep town had one hell of a museum.
Look up Arundel. Small old market town with pubs, antiques, and book shops... and a f*#$ off big castle...
That's kinda what Britain's like
There's a tonne of history in England, it's amazing when Americans are fascinated by everything when they're here
It's possible that they were sent from larger museums in the cities.
My theory is that to protect historical items, many were shipped to smaller locations (like the children were) for safekeeping.
wow the last time time I saw this scene I was a little kid , good memories
Honestly think this is where my love of bagpipes came from
I absolutly love this scene! There is no other movie that can repeat it better than Bedknobs & Broomsticks
I like how it is a whole mixture of historic soldiers -
Heptarchy? - Viking/Saxon
Medieval
Civil War Royalists
Hanoverians (the GR for the first Georges)
and scots as well
I love how everyone was like, "Look!" at the flags moving just after Eglantine describing the museum as a "DRAUGHTY old castle"
This always gave me chills as a kid!
I used replay this whenever I watch this as a child
To be perfectly fair, that museum was supposed to be a castle, and since we never see the whole thing there could be whole heaps of stuff hidden away in other floors or rooms.
It's more than that, during the German Blitz of England, the British evacuated many of their relics from cities to rural locations like the castle in this movie so they wouldn't be bombed into oblivion. It's also partly why the the children themselves are there, to escape the bombing
One of my favorite movie in my childhood years! Mighty good!
Uh. Love the music in that massive shot of the horizon so much I can't even begin to describe it...
Yes, when the camera pans over to see her on her broom, the music and the scenery will always be the best
i love you for posting this!! I shed a tear as it brought back some awesome childhood memories of watching this with my little brother while mom was in the kitchen making snacks and then us watching it again at grandma's house! :*)
I was born in 90 and had this on VHS 😊❤️
Ca sent le French XD
i was born a little latter but same
I was born in 2000 and had this on VHS. I watched it all the time. I also had Petes dragon. Peter Pan mary poppins
@@Jo_Wardy same but i only had mary poppins are peter pan as well
Every time those bagpipes start wailing I just automatically throw a salute it has always been my favorite scene when I was a child. HaHa Scottish power, the Germans are defenseless against the march to the pipes.
this is probably one of my all-time favorite movie moments!
I can’t think of a single other movie that gives me goosebumps the way this scene does. This scene is just…cinematic perfection.
There something just so stirring and moving about this scene
Still gives me chills. Awesome scene
Is it weird that this, the opening battle from gladiator, and the ride of the rohirrim from LOTR are my favorite battle scenes of all time?
RIP Angela Lansbury. Great actress and movie.
this is embarrassing...but i actually tried this spell in my basement once, as a kid....
....it didn't work. i was sad =(
Im Sad Too
I tried too, it didn't worked

I really love this movie and would hate a revamp but I would love how Disney would do it now with all this CGI
my favorite scene in this movie. =)
This is one of my favorite Disney films.
love this part
thank you very much for the upload as it brings me back to childhood
I am happy that my favourite shot is still in, with the castle in the distance and the moon shining ☺️☺️☺️
likes the music they play in this well played actors
One of my fav movies of all time
Angela was a stunning lady and a superb actress dearly missed.
I still have the CD to this movie and I watched this since I was little
Taysav 123 I still have it on VHS
as well as all the other classic Disney movies on VHS
Aguiar Ed cool
likes this very much watch this on UA-cam when I can.
Bagpipes For The Win!
RIP Angela Lansbury
I think it's more impressive that this is done the old fashioned way. If it was CGI it would cheapen it.
RIP Angela Lansbury
I will always thing of her when I am watching this movie
This was my favorite part of bed nobs and broomsticks movie
RIP Angela Lansbury (Oct 2022)
REST IN LOVE Dame Angela Lansbury
you have an army?
we got a witch and an army XD
We got a witch & a bulletproof army! & ideas are bulletproof!
Jean-Luc Martel no, just wierd necromantic spells
This entire scene is basically a typical Saturday night in Minnesota
An army of the dead
my favorite part of the film :)
As a kid I admit I used to fast forward this bit. I just hated it and thought it was boring. However as an adult what the hell was I thinking it was incredibly done and so patriotic! I guess I just didnt understand!
1.39/1.40 bit always did it for me also makes me proud to part of the British Isles
That's the magic of Disney 🙂
This is my favorite part of the movie. I think I probably worn out the scene(s) on my families VHS of the movie. :P
Bagpipes carried that battle
We just need Nanny McPhee, Professor McGonagal, and Mary Poppins to really kick Nazi ass!
"That's some serious necromancy ms. Fletcher."

I am so glad no one disliked this, it means I dont have to rant at anyone :D
What song do the bagpipes play?
this movie, and scene= METAL!!!!
This scared the shit outta me as a child
I need this for D&D.
The ancestors from the crown
Goddammit it, the Hessians are joining the enemy.
3:09 - 3:20, such a powerful shot...
there were a few more than a few dozen there.... And even if it was a few dozen suits of armor, there were a frig ton of angry floating kilts.
aw man to that
What tune is that anyways? from the pipes
the scene i use to jump to as soon as i put the movie in
This trailer for the next Battlefield game looks great!
The Nazi war machine destroyed everything in its path in Western Europe, but was defenseless against a few dozen floating suits of armor.
The thing that doesn't make sense here, is why are THOUSANDS of suits of armor available for this battle, all from that TINY little museum display?
They had a big storage closet.
this is a classic b &b moment
Armors conjured up by a witch 26 years before harry potter's first book came out.
Could it be that J.K Rowling was inspired?
me too! I tried it with my school clothes late at night when I was five

It's on you tube, strange watching to say the least.
So wait, Ms. Price is actually Professor McGonagall?
She did it before McGonagall...so it would be the opposite actually.
This is Angela Lansbury, Mcgonagle is Maggie Smith - similar ages and not dissimilar actresses though
A excitação da cena do exército fantasma, quando eu era pequeno!! (E o resto do filme?!...)
pretty impressive for that time
1:21 Throat punch.
It would be wonderful if there were armies like this
Different countries would have different military uniform armies. The US one would include Revolutionary War uniforms, Union and Confederate uniforms. France's would include musketeer uniforms, Napoleonic war uniforms. Japan's would have samurai armor. etc.
And that my friends is the reason the bagpipe was deemed war pipes,
i used to skip the whole film just to get to this bit and still do and im 18 haha
I like that one very ancient suit of armor with the wings on the helmet and etc, even if it is likely very unhistorical. I wonder if it's supposed to be from the Celts or the Saxons (or similar ancient Germanic cultures).
+Robert Miles I don't believe so as they're wearing solid breastplates. I don't quite know what they're based upon.
It is most likely it has to do with Gauls era of history and seeing the helmet it was probably a chieftain's armor.
Hivedragon
Hmm, I didn't think it was the Gauls, because they lived in France.
Well and I could be mistaking, that the Gauls was used for the majority of the western Europe tribes, but like I said not sure and its around the time period where that helmet would fit, plus I have no idea how the Bits were called during that time period.
