This re-mastered, pan-and-scan 30th-anniversary edition of that kiddie-car caper is flawed but solid family fare. The original "hero" car, in a condition described as "fully functional" and "road going", was put up for auction on 15 May 2011 by a California-based auction house. Just pause the film at 52min 2sec and study the minute detail on the cars bodywork,the blades of grass as so clear and vivid you almost want to get up out of your chair and pick a handfull.

Ken Adam designed the film's titular car [23] and six Chitty Chitty Bang Bangs were created for the film, though only one was fully-functional. That evening, Caractacus sings his children a lullaby (" Hushabye Mountain") before going to a carnival, where he attempts to raise money with another of his inventions, an automatic hair-cutting machine.

Some of Emett's other gizmos were also showcased at the Ontario Science Center, which never failed to attract passersby because of the intricate moving parts. The Blu-ray carries over virtually all of the supplements from 2003's two-disc Special Edition DVD starting with a sing-along.Songs: "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang", "Truly Scrumptious", "Hushabye Mountain", "Me Ol' Bamboo", "Toot Sweets", "The Roses of Success", "Lovely Lonely Man", "You Two", "Chu-Chi Face", "Posh!

For their first trip in the car (" Chitty Chitty Bang Bang"), Caractacus and the children go to a beach to have a picnic. It is still an emotional event when Chitty makes her first appearence in the film and seeing GEN11 almost jump out of the screen in this Blu Ray transfer makes my memories of seeing the film back in 1968 that more special. Emmett can be credited with the many bizarre contraptions found in the Potts home, and he even gives us a closer examination of how these work.

It not only drives - but also flies and floats - as it leads him, his two children and his beautiful lady friend, Truly Scrumptious (Sally Ann Howes), into a magical world of pirates, castles and endless adventure. Picton's anecdotes are interesting, and the showcasing of the car gives one an appreciation for its design. When before i played the film very infrequently i can now see me playing this BluRay disc many times bcause the picture and sound is so good.
