Wissenswertes
For its original network broadcast, Steve Allen and Gary Coleman performed hosting duties, appearing in skits at the commercial breaks.

Patzer
The story was written long before electricity or motor-powered air-compressors, yet during Ichabod's choir-practice session, the church organ is shown to be played without anyone pumping the bellows.

Zitate
Brom Bones: Squire, I don't take it lightly seeing the schoolmaster hanging around Katrina. I thought you and me had an agreement.
Squire Van Tassel: I agreed that you could court my Katrina with matrimonial intentions, but that was three years ago, Brom Bones.
Brom Bones: Well Squire, marriage ain't nothing for a man to hurry into.
Squire Van Tassel: And for three years I'm still not a grandfather!

An older but better Sleepy Hollow

Ever since I saw this on tv many years ago, it has been my favorite Sleepy Hollow. I've seen 3 other Sleepy Hollows, including the most recent one with Johnny Depp, and I still prefer this one. One of the elements I love most is its authenticity. I think it is very true to the original story that everyone knows, and so many of the actors and actresses are perfectly suited for their characters. Jeff Goldblum is excellent as Ichabod Crane; besides his tall and gangly appearance, he has an amazing ability for playing quirky characters. I have yet to see someone do a better performance. Dick Butkus gives a great supporting performance as the coarse, insensitive Brom Bones as well. This is a movie that I wish would be shown every year at Halloween; I think it could become a tradition just like The Grinch at Christmas. If you come across it in a video store, it's definitely worth seeing.
