Classic Science Fiction or Fantasy Films from 1930 - 1999


Bedknobs and Broomsticks (1971)
Often viewed as a spiritual cousin (and sometimes understudy) to Mary Poppins, Bedknobs and Broomsticks is a 1971 musical fantasy that combines whimsy, wartime grit, and good old-fashioned Disney spectacle. With a stellar performance from Angela Lansbury and the visual innovation of combining live action with animation, the film is a nostalgic oddity that hasn’t always received the attention it deserves.
