Treacly in the tradition of Walt's live-character movies. The title song is saccharine to the max. The characters are 1-dimensional. There's a glaring 3rd-act plot-hole when the witch's house catches fire by lightening (Thomasina gets out alright but what about the other animals? We never find out). The going-to-heaven bit is done once and never clearly explained. Still, a first-rate cast in need of the Disney dollar (not as insidious in 1963 as it is in 1998). And besides, I'm baseball-bat-upside-the-head over Susan Hampshire at any age.
