Article · Español
Bedknobs and Broomsticks (lit. "Boliches y escobas", La bruja novata en España y Travesuras de una bruja en Hispanoamérica) es una película que combina la animación con la imagen real, producida por Walt Disney Productions y estrenada en el año 1971. La película está basada en dos libros de Mary Norton, The Magic Bed-Knob (1943) y Bonfires and Broomsticks (1945), los cuales fueron más tarde publicados como un solo libro bajo el título de Bed-Knob and Broomstick (1957). El estudio había comprado los derechos para producir una adaptación cinematográfica de la obra en el caso de que Mary Poppins (1964) fracasase. Sin embargo, la película de 1964 fue un gran éxito y aun así Bedknobs and Broomsticks fue llevada a cabo. Logró éxito por parte de la crítica, si bien financieramente no alcanzó las expectativas; también recibió un Óscar por los "mejores efectos visuales" en 1971. Las canciones de la película fueron escritas por los hermanos Richard M. Sherman y Robert B. Sherman, quienes trabajaron también en Mary Poppins, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang y El libro de la selva.
