Lovely sweet story for all the family

Rating: 9/10 (14 December 2016)

This movie was just so gorgeous, gentle and sweet my family loved it. The outback Australia was not quiet right with the palm trees but the costumes perfect. This appealed to me as a dad having two daughters when Walt made a promise to his girls about the story even if it took him 20 years to convince PL Travers.
Emma Thompson is the glue and her performance is real, strong and brilliant. This is so much more than an extension of the story of Mary Poppins - being tender and kind.
A movie for the entire family, very sad in parts and PL Travers life is rough and hard with both her parents having mental problems.
As always Tom Hanks is the gentleman and true Movie Star we all love. Do yourself a favour and add this film to your home collection. A+
