L'Apprentie sorcière
During the early 1960s, "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" entered development when the negotiations for the film rights to "Mary Poppins" (1964) were placed on hold. When the rights were acquired, the film was shelved repeatedly due to the similarities with "Mary Poppins" until it was revived in 1969. Originally at a length of 139 minutes, "Bedknobs and Broomsticks" was edited down to almost two hours prior to its premiere at the Radio City Music Hall.
