A story that can make you angry, laugh, smile and tearful all at the same time

Rating: 9/10 (24 May 2014)

This has to be one of the most enchanting, enlivening and endearing movie I have ever seen, not to mention the most magical, Walter Elias Disney portrayed by the famous legend Tom Hanks who also stars as Disney's favourite toy Woody tells the true tale behind the wonderful woman herself P. L Travers portrayed by one of Hollywood's most beloved and blessed actress' Emma Thompson. The movie itself tells the story of the woman behind children's favourite tale, Marry Popping's which is a brilliant and well written book based in London. Walt, keeping his daughter a promise encourages Travers to give him the rights to her personal story Mary Popping's however Travers unable to give her conscious away begins to give him grief about how a perfect story should be shown and saw as a perfect movie. Walt struggles with her demands and realises that she is not all that she makes out to be and on the outside of that harsh and independent body there is a lonely woman who is waiting to let it out.
The story switches between Traver's life as a child and her current life. The past gives away so much detail about the character herself and how she managed to cope with the situations that she faced and to do that she simply wrote one of the best selling books of all time. Her true colours show through her talented skills with a pen and lead her to stardom. Walt, being one of the most successful men in America and with keeping a smile on children's face's including adults, see's that she just needs to let her emotions out and smile. After all a smile can't harm anyone.
This movie isn't like every Disney movie where there are always happy, jolly sing songs or a beautiful woman falling in love with a Prince. The most fascinating thing that I appreciate most about this movie is that a woman who had a close and reliable relationship with her father manages to express her feelings in one book, simply like the colour red or the moustache on George Banks. A serious story of alcoholism is shown in a strong manner, but contrasts to a semantic of Disney which is happiness.
The movie is beautifully made and beautifully acted, giving me the true opinion on the two stars and I feel like each actor suited these characters incredibly and shown the true story of trust, family and magic. I would definitely recommend this movie to you especially if you like one to make you laugh, smile and cry.
