TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Julie Andrews initially turned down the role of Miss Eglantine Price. She eventually reconsidered, believing she owed her movie career to Walt Disney Studios and wanted to work there again. When she told the studio she'd changed her mind, Dame Angela Lansbury had already been cast.

Angela Lansbury hated what she called "by the numbers" acting in this movie. Due to the heavy special effects, the entire movie had to be storyboarded in advance, shot for shot. Every moment was pre-determined, and Lansbury wasn't free to explore her character naturally.

This is the last feature film for which longtime Disney studio songwriters Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman wrote songs until The Tigger Movie (2000). They briefly returned in the early 1980s to write songs for EPCOT Center. This might have been the last DISNEY movie they wrote songs for, but it wasn't the last MOVIE they wrote songs for. They also wrote the score for 1973s Tom Sawyer starring Johnny Whitaker, Jeff East and Jodie Foster.

Several of the dolls Carrie (Cindy O'Callaghan) admires in the nursery of Professor Emelius Browne's (David Tomlinson's) house were modelled after the international puppets in the Small World ride at Disneyland.

The armor in the climactic battle with the Nazis was authentic medieval armor, previously used in Camelot (1967) and El Cid (1961). When any item of armor was to be destroyed, exact fiberglass replicas were created and used.

Captain Ainsley Greer: I'm not a Nazi, I'm a British officer! Elderly Farmer: That's what you'd say if you *was* a Nazi, isn't it sir?"
