Mary Poppins (1964)

[Plain Old Tele]

A spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down...

It seemed like this was the film where Walt Disney took everything he learned about filmmaking and applied it here and like Mary Poppins the film is practically perfect in every way. And let's start with Mary herself played by Julie Andrews who looks great and just nails the role. Dick Van Dyke's accent is pretty atrocious, but he still is fun. The kids Jane and Michael do a terrific job. And let's not forget the underrated and wonderful David Tomlinson a staple of Disney films in the 60's and 70's as Mr. Banks. Of course no mention of the film can be mentioned without the great Sherman Brothers songs. From Spoonful of Sugar to Supercalifraglisticexpealidocious to Chim Chim Cheree to Feed the Birds which was said to be Walt's favorite song. Love this movie. A+

This is one of those movies that pretty much anybody alive has seen.

The day I have children, I will show them this. I think it is the perfect movie for them. It is nice, funny and tender. IMO, it is nearly impossible to make a better child movie. A+

I've seen maybe half of it. Though I don't really remember.

An all-time great not only in the genre of family movies, but in general. It's practically perfect in every way.
