Summary of Mary Poppins
A magical, musical nanny brings a breath of fresh air into the stuffy Banks household in turn-of-the-century England. Overstuffed with gaiety, this children's fantasy is filled to the brim with wonderful dance numbers and outrageous songs (such as the seemingly unpronounceable "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"). The film's seamless blending of live-action with animation was a marvel in its day. This is Andrews' film debut and Darwell's last film appearance. Academy Award Nominations: 13, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best (Adapted) Screenplay. Academy Awards: 5, including Best Actress--Julie Andrews, Best Original Score, Best Song ("Chim Chim Cher-ee"), Best Editing, Best Special Visual Effects.

A delightful film that puts a smile on my face and a song in my heart. Julie Andrews delivers a stunning performance and Dick Van Dyke sure can whistle.

10/10Must See
I remember this film from my childhood. It's inspiring and fun to watch. The mischievous children in the film just need some love and somebody to take care of them. Mary Poppins does it extraordinarily well and they enjoy every minute they spend...
