	Brigadoon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Brigadoon is a musical by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe, first produced in 1947.
		Other sources suggest that "Brigadoon" was constructed from the Gaelic words: briga which means "strife", and dùn which means "hill, hill fort, or hill village." The name may also be a reference to the Celtic Goddess Brigid, as in "Brigid's Hill." See also Alloway for another interpretation.
		Brigadoon is also referenced in Ann Granger's whodunnit "Flowers For His Funeral" where Meredith Mitchell has difficulties finding a village and this is compared to trying to find legendary Brigadoon.

	DVD Savant Review: Brigadoon
		A village called Brigadoon suddenly appears where no village should be and they discover a perplexing bunch of villagers who behave as highlanders did two hundred years before.
		The concept of Brigadoon, a magical destination for those tired of the chaos of modern life, is pure soft-boiled hooey.
		Along with Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Brigadoon was filmed in CinemaScope and in flat 1:75, both for theaters that couldn't convert and also to hedge bets in case the new anamorphic system did a bellyflop.

	DVD Verdict Review - Brigadoon
		Brigadoon was one of the less successful efforts churned out by Arthur Freed during MGM's musical heyday.
		Charisse's is no more convincing a Scot than her fellow Brigadoonians, and her character has few discernable traits beyond being a right pretty lass, but she has enough natural charisma to make us care about her, or at least until the movie reaches its inevitable conclusion.
		To begin with, it is given an anamorphic transfer and restored to its original CinemaScope aspect ratio of 2.55:1 (the ratio was reduced to 2.35:1 on the previous edition).

	TechnoFile reviews Brigadoon, Easter Parade and The Band Wagon on DVD
		A wonderfully charming musical fantasy, Brigadoon is a tale about the power of love, set in the Scottish highlands and revolves around a magical village that appears out of the mist every 100 years.
		Brigadoon was directed by Vincente Minelli and choreographed by Kelly, from the musical by Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe.
		Brigadoon isn’t remembered in the same breath as My Fair Lady, Oklahoma or the Sound of Music, but that doesn’t detract from its strengths as a lovely story with likeable characters living a dream that, at one time or another, most of us have undoubtedly had while coping with the rushes of modern life.

	Brigadoon: From Stage to Screen
		This group number introduces the people of Brigadoon, they as a whole are a strong character in the story of Brigadoon.
		On stage, BRIGADOON is clearly a singer's musical, providing such Lerner and Loewe staples as "Almost Like Being in Love " and "There But For You Go I." It isn't hard to see why Lerner and Loewe scored BIG with this show.
		The characters in BRIGADOON the film are either sighing dreamily over new (or lost) love, or brooding over some unrealized dream.

	Brigadoon: About Brigadoon
		"Brigadoon" is the name of a project that I've been thinking about for a long time.
		The name is actually a reference to an old musical, which was a wistful fantasy about two Americans who stumble on the enchanted village of Brigadoon while hunting grouse on the Scottish moors.
		This village of Brigadoon was a beautiful place full of magic, but it would only occasionally materialize from the mists of time every 100 years or so.

		I saw her on Broadway when she performed as Christine in The Phantom of the Opera and i was thoroughly enchanted and still am.
		It's frustrating to me that Brigadoon first came out 45 years before the first complete recording; many other soundtracks (of many musicals) are chopped and mangled to fit the medium or the voices or the producers' desires.

		It is said that both Gene Kelly and Vincent Minnelli were disappointed that MGM finances prevented then from filming "Brigadoon" abroad in more "natural settings." However, the beautiful studio sets to my mind work just fine for the whimsical fantasy being told.
		It is true that the basic idea of the story is a bit far-fetched, but then that's what fairy tales are all about.
