Brigadoon-The Miracle Of Brigadoon

[@edwardabrams4972]

After I saw this movie for the first time I believed in true Love🥰 and realized it’s the most magical thing in life!

[@cristinamorenolamin3217]

The music and storyline of this musical is amazing.

[@ambrosecars2124]

What a great musical. Not one musical has "borrowed" anything from this musical story-wise. It's a one-of-a-kind story. EVERY character is perfectly cast. Music and lyrics - always rememberable. Almost 70 years later and people still remember these songs. It was 30 years between viewing and I remembered every word. True genius.

you haven't seen schmigadoon, have you?

[@bettystowe4034]

Oh how I do love this movie. Gene Kelly and Cyd Charisse were wonderful together

[@cameronsmith6755]

OK, I'm an old romantic. If you know the legend of Brigadoon, one of my favorite descriptions of love in a quote from a movie "Brigadoon"......""A stranger can stay if he loves someone here - not jus' Brigadoon, mind ye, but someone in Brigadoon - enough to want to give up everythin' an' stay with that one person. Which is how it should be. 'Cause after all, lad, if ye love someone deeply, anythin' is possible."

That’s so beautiful. And doesn’t it feel like that when you fall in love for the first time? Like you could miss a hundred years fly by around the two of you and for you it was 1 day? 💙💚

The principal story line was strongly influenced by choreographer Agnes DeMille - brought early into the Lerner-Loewe team for the musical’s dance segments. She and Trude Whitman expanded the story-line character who performs the sword dance - expanding the Chase following sequence - the villagers looking for him in the highlands…! To catch him before he escapes Brigadoon…!

MGM original film plan was to shoot on location in Scotland. Because Paint your Wagon musical was given priority - Brigadoon was returned to Culver City - entirely filmed in the MGM studio’s sound stages. The exteriors were built with scenic drops hung 360 on the stage’s interior wall-4- sides. Landscaping constructed on top of platforms.. studio carpenter & greens department all built.

[@deidrezbiegien5549]

Paint your wagon was made in 1969. Brigade on was made in the 50’s

Still think of the young guy who dies: He wasn't consulted about the town's change; He wanted to see some of the world; He wanted to go to university; That very day the girl he was sweet on was marrying someone else.

[@TabithaDial]

THANK YOU for this. It is poignant. I grew up on this musical and others from this era. Whenever I find myself awake at night, as an empathetic soul, I do recall this scene -- specifically when Mr. Lundie mentions how they feel they hear some voices at night (the outside world). Catharrtic.

[@chrismorrison2805]

I agree.

[@brandoncline6705]

Great movie! Great story! My favorite role. Played Mr. Lundie my freshman year of high-school

[@TheFanastico]

One of my favourite movies Pure magic 🎥

[@achloist]

We still have witches in Scotland. Loads of the buggers.

[@edwardcampbell7513]

[@wynterduquesne5545]

Mr Forsyth could tell. My family is Forsyth

[@joannehines7806]

Van Johnson!!!! Love him!! May he continue RIHP!! Hollywood Royalty!!

[@Graycata]

They were indeed, horrible destructive women. I don't suppose you have such women in your country? Witches? Oh we have 'em, we pronounce it differently! LOL had me rolling

[@lynnjepson302]

Best line!

[@michaelunderhill8847]

200 years ago the highlands of scotland were taken by wealthy land owners and the people kicked out or murdered and to this day large parts of the highlands are only inhabited by wealthy, usually english, retirees.

Exteriors - Filmed on MGM’s Culver City sound stages.

[@henriettepikrun2096]

Ich liebe diesen Film

[@SicilianStealth]

Rudy Tutoni a cousin of my mother was in this.

[@Barbara-jq2se]

I was introduced to all these old fashioned movies from my dear precious mother. I lost her just over 24 yrs old. So whenever I see a movie that reminds me of her it’s very special. Oh mom I really miss your voice & your physical presence rt beside me. Thank you so much for sharing these awesome movies with me. You never know what you’re gonna do with someone or say to someone that’s gonna stay with them for the rest of their lifetime. Mom left this movie with me. ☺️♥️💝🤗

[@wesleycook7687]

Loosely based on the movie Shagrila , about a legendary Eden like place in the Hlmilayian Mountains, it's a good movie. Shan gri la,, was based on the legend of a plane crash in those mountains . Supposedly, five people survive and wake up in this beautiful place where there is no sickness or death. However, one man gets homesick and escapes with a young girl . Once out in the elements, she falls sick and he tries to find the place again. She dies but he is rescued. He tells his story but no one believes him. However, planes have actually flown over that region in search of it. The actual guy had his story published but apparently the place if it exists is in a different dimension or time. Too bad it doesn't exist. I would love to live in such a place.

[@deidrezbiegien5549]

Not at all

[@rcajun91405]

This scene was cut short cause Gene Kelley's question was not asked and answered.

[@wynterduquesne5545]

You mean every day is 100 years later. Ei

[@chrismorrison2805]

The miracle is in front of me...I just trip over it.

[@AbelMcTalisker]

The miracle dosn`t work out all that well for Harry though does it? This could be seen as a blessing but it could also be a curse.

[@chrismorrison2805]

@@AbelMcTalisker How true! You are so right. It reminds me of the title of that country song, "Thank God for unanswered prayers."

[@xomthood]

so, they have, maybe, two days left

[@AbelMcTalisker]

Or maybe longer, the only way the village is going to get seasons is through long term climate change.

[@brianc9374]

RED PILLED

[@AbelMcTalisker]

Witches, 200 years in the past? I.E sometime in the 1740`s or `50`s. Cue season 1 of Outlander. The writers didn`t really pay that much attention to actual Scottish history or they might have seen fit to add an extra day or two and assume the start of "the blessing" was sometime in the 1500`s or 1600`s.

[@juliankerrell7281]

I think they call them feminists not witches these days! 😂

[@hestiaa9354]

I think they call the guys red pills. They won’t ever get the girl.

[@myrddingwynedd2751]

Yeah, they pronounce it differently, feminists.

[@lynnjepson302]

No, it starts with a b.

[@craigsievewright8003]

No he’s correct. Feminists.
