An Adorable Story about W.Disney & M.Poppins Author

Rating: 10/10 (11 January 2014)

This was truly a Very Outstanding Movie. Emma Thompson stole the whole film with her performance as P. L. Travers, author of the famous Mary Poppins series of books. And Tom Hanks does a very admirable job depicting Mr. Walt Disney.
I get a whole new appreciation of the Walt Disney classic movie..."Mary Poppins" with the adaption of how this movie came into being. I intend to watch "Mary Poppins" again very soon and know now that this story was really a story about PL Travers life in Australia... trying to hold on to the memory of her alcoholic father who she loved & adored, who she lost to this terrible disease at a very young life.
In the Poppins film classic her father was depicted as the "Workaholic Banker" who had no time for his kids...and finally comes around in the end to notice that his children really loved their father despite his working all the time and from now on he will try to be a better Dad...."Lets....Go Fly A Kite" But in real life PL Travers Loved & adored her father despite being a real Alcoholic. She created her "Mary Poppins" books from her childhood memories. I guess.. Mary Poppins in real life was her Aunt Mary that came to their Aussie home to help the family through their hardships.
Again...This was a Tremendous Movie..probably a lot not true but Walt Disney has made this a better USA with his contributions in film and entertainment.
