A Travesty

Rating: 2/10 (4 February 2016)

Being a huge fan of the movie "Mary Poppins," I had to watch this follow up movie, and it was somewhat fun to watch. It arose much curiosity in me about PL Travers and I've started reading more about her.
That said, one of the reasons I want to read more about the author is that the movie is basically fiction, though it is listed under "biography." It does include scenes based on real occurrences but the whole premise of this movie goes down the toilet once you learn that, in reality, Travers signed the contract before she flew out to LA.
And based on what I've read Disney didn't give a darn what she thought, though in "Saving Mr. Banks" he practically bends over backwards for her.
The movie was aesthetically pleasing, but the back and forth between PL Travers' past and present did not go smoothly.
