A true story that is "practically perfect in every way"!

Rating: 10/10 (15 October 2018)

When I heard that this movie was being made, I was pumped! This movie tells the back story of how Walt Disney convinced PL Travers to sell him the rights to her Mary Poppins books to make into a feature film.
I learned once that PL Travers did not want her books by Walt, I was shocked. How could she not want one of the world's greatest filmmakers to adapt her work? If I wrote a book and Disney asked me to let him adapt it, I would say yes right away!
But SMB made me understand and sympathize with her reason. That's something you'll have to see the movie for.
I believe that Mary Poppins is the best movie Disney produced in his lifetime. I have this tied with it, not so much because they are equally as good, but because this story is what made Mary Poppins possible. That makes this movie great within itself.
