My mom made it a tradition to watch every Christmas time. It just happened to be played back in the 70’s a week before Christmas for years. I was about 8-9 and couldn’t stop watching this and then year after year waited for it since we only had 3main Channels back then
One of my favourite movies , my dad was in a stage production in 1960 of this and twenty years later my mum pregnant with me called me Heather after the Heather on the hill , also saw this on Stage with my parents in 2001 at the same theatre my dad had performed at special memories
Thanks for sharing that lovely story of your parents & where you got your name! I’m so happy you got to see it with them! Such special moments make for great memories! I loved this! 😊💕
First saw Brigadoon as an ABC-TV special in 1966 with Robert Goulet, Peter Faulk, and Sally Ann Howes. Didn't see the movie version until years later. Of course, it was a great MGM spectacle with Gene Kelly, Van Johnson, and Cyd Charisse. Thanks for uploading the original trailer.
And another Classic almost gone. I remember seeing this as a 12 year old back in Chicago in the Fall of 1967 "Frazier Thomas's Family Classics". I know my Sister Roxanne was in shock. My Friend Johnny was over and he and I sat and watched the entire movie. Johnny is gone now. You want some real 'Street Adventure', get a copy of Willie Means Well (But It Don't Work Out Sometime)-The Meal. I like to say, "If You can read Zain, You can read Willie Means". Think I'm going to check and see if Netflix or Hula Plus have Brigadoon and sit here and watch it along with Darby O'Gil And The Little People. GOD BLESS!!!
I believe in love at first sight. It's possible. Just sad it doesn't happen more often, especially in today's loveless reality. I mean almost loveless.
This was the first Play I ever saw. It was an overwhelming experience, with the storyline and musical numbers..when the I termination came I was ready for a restroom stop but could t wait to see the second half. I got hooked. I have been to several other plays..some good some awful but nothing will ever beat that first experience with a well run play and wanting to believe in that mythical escape from modern world problems and responsibilities for a simple life of happyness overflowing. Worth it to see live..this version of the movie was well done as there isn't much better than Gene and Cyd dancing together..they really compliment each other like no match since.
I saw this one last November off of DVD Netflix! The pacing towards the end is slow. But still worth it for Gene and Cyd’s beautiful chemistry, the music of Lerner & Lowe and the fantasy. I remember Z singing Almost Like Being In Love in Antz.
Still vastly underrated, but this is really one of the greatest Hollywood musicals. Even though it could not be filmed on location, they'd make the best of it, maybe even better, because maybe stylized Brigadoon on a Hollywood soundstage is better than a real Scottish village. Like Lubitsch once said, he knows Paris France and Paris Paramount, and for him Paris Paramount was better.
Bearing in mind this came out a year before I was born! Always loved the musicals! In those days artists were required to be multi- talented, they had to be able to sing, dance,act! In other words anything the producers wanted them to do. Those who could survived, others ended up with bit parts or oblivion!
Yall keep saying its underated, but everytime I have a stage dirrector or drama teacher all they can talk about it brigafreakingdoon. Guess I should watch it idk
blafiman because there was a curse placed on the village. So one day the village awaken every thousand years. Also when there night time come and theygo to sleep they wake up a thousand year later
This is a wonderful movie, however the 1966 version of Brigadoon with Peter Falk and the Scrumptious Sally Ann Howes is even better. Sadly you will be hard pressed to find a watchable copy of it as it appears the master has been lost.
Ich habe es als Kind geliebt und heute mit 55 immer noch. ❤
The best musical, ever. I fell in love with it the first time I saw it at the movie theater in the 60s, on a school field trip.
I know it got lousy reviews and lost almost a million, but I enjoyed it.

Watched this film 3 times over the last ten years. Will watch it again I am sure.

It's amazing 64 years on and Scotland hasn't changed a bit, I was there only last week.
It wasn't filmed in Scotland lol

How'd I ever miss this movie? Just found it on TCM. Wow.
I assumed it was a navy war film... never saw it, either.
the concept of this movie is good but the time in which they fell in love is only few hours such craziness seems unbelievable only in movies of course

Schmigadoon brought me here
Lol, same. People in the comments mentioned it so I wanted to see if this is the inspiration behind Schmigadoon.
Same
I need someone to do a breakdown of all the references in Schmigadoon so I can fill in the gaps in my musical theater education
Yesssssss
Same here; I actually had never heard of Brigadoon before and it was my husband who asked me if Schmigadoon was a parody of this.

Best
CrooK is it the only crap of Hollywood you have ever seen?
On location? 🤔
Clearly you’ve not seen much of Scotland, if at all.
As someone who grow up in a small village in Scotland, I have definitely seen villages and locations more beautiful that these movie set.
Wonderful!!!!! I l love this film.
superb film how to resist living in a legendary village that reappears every hundred years than living in this infamous society
great film and i loved the music

Lmao I would hardly call any of this good acting
Finally something to tide me over during Droughtlander lol.
Love this movie!
Yall keep saying its underated, but everytime I have a stage dirrector or drama teacher all they can talk about it brigafreakingdoon. Guess I should watch it idk
One of the Best movies I've ever seen! ❤
like a bride all dressed in white like a pearl in the night sky
Many people look for Brigadoon but very few ever find it.
Just bought this on DVD. Anything Scottish or fantastical and I'm there...
The costumes are sensational
That's me... Sleeping for that long in this lockdown
"The only Scotch she knows comes out of a bottle." Ha
Stunning Cyd Charisse
I was just watching her the other night in It’s Always Fair Weather
One of my fav. movies
why is this movie listed under "time travel "?
blafiman because there was a curse placed on the village. So one day the village awaken every thousand years. Also when there night time come and theygo to sleep they wake up a thousand year later
thank you Karl Lee
Lost horizons musical version. Enjoyable fantasy.A gem hidden in the chest
@@karllee4249 It's every hundred years.
They awakened every 100 years, not one thousand
Music arranged by Conrad Salinger and orchestrated by Rob Franklyn !
IM SO HAPPY RIGHT NOW
Saw it with 10 n just thought of it after decades. Don't know y lol...great movie,..
One of my favorites. ☆
This one makes me think of Melina!! 😍
Water boys brougt me here
Schmigadoon!
Was forced to watch as a kid then fell in love with it.
I was forced to wear a kilt on my wedding day by my mum
Mr. Magic English I was forced to watch John Wayne films by my gramps
@@jahsoniclark9844 Thank gosh I was essentially forced to watch it on a field trip in elementary school, (Brigadoon). And NOT John Wayne!
Que recuerdos de mi juventud, en esta hermosa película.
It has the plot of every Hallmark movie
Before Hallmark was a thing.
But with actual talented actors.
Gene and Cyd.
Van Johnson very good in this
My top 10
'The Whole of the Moon'
Quero muito assistir! Amo clássicos, ainda mais os músicais! E esse deve ser um verdadeiro espetáculo, só pelo elenco! ❤😊
I so want to see this
Who’s here after seeing Shmigadoon on Apple+?
I love G.K.
Waterboys brought me here
The Maitlands - more boring than Brigadoon
I was looking for this
Sad you have little heart.
@@kentclark6420it’s a joke from the Beetlejuice musical
@@Mr_Beeble_boose
Beetlejuice was right, imo
I’d rather watch DARBY GiLLIS and the Little People . At Least that had a Scotsman playing an Irish , instead of yanks playing Scottish
This is a wonderful movie, however the 1966 version of Brigadoon with Peter Falk and the Scrumptious Sally Ann Howes is even better. Sadly you will be hard pressed to find a watchable copy of it as it appears the master has been lost.
Schmigadoon! brought me here.
I'm here because some lady named Molly at the pottery and poetry thing I was at said I should wach it
oh its "idyllic".......
Era o filme de Réveillon da Rede Globo até 1979.
Depois foi só babaquice.
Filme nota 10 mil.
There's is sth weird about the enjoyable experience of watching such musical but absolutely hating the actor.
❤️
To think people found this entertaining once!
Times, and tastes, change.
Well it was over 65 years ago
Many people still do find Brigadoon entertaining.
Sad you have little heart.
Mix Master Mike brought me here
Unfortunately, Gene Kelly thought the film was all about him.

La Bestia bailando en mis sueños

No es la bestia, sino BETITA BETITA.
Uncultured by Daniella Mestyanek Young brought me here.
Yep, that's what Scotland looked like ... in the 1950's!
Really? Not the 1850's?
@@kentclark6420 Fair point, but I don't think the Americans thought there was any difference
Bbc, bt and google updates
I like Patrick Wilson and Kelli O’Hara better, crazy I know, production values great, music great, Cyd just always seems too tall for Gene
BERTHY, BETITA, BERTITA,.....CODRY...!. RAULITO
Other bad films : blackboard jungle , Satan bug , a new hope , phantom menace , Clone wars , Star Trek tmp
Better Scottish films : Highlander (1985), braveheart (1995), water horse (2004), brave (2012)
The only thing I like about this overrated movie is the contribution of Elaine Stewart who was generally underrated.
Van Johnson is always awful - how did he make it in Hollywood? blackmail?
What a load of rubbish
Four weddings and Funeral brougth me here 😂 I wanted to find out what what Gareth's line "It's blooddy Briggadoon" meant 🫠
Ach!
