Back To Index Mary Poppins
 Barnes & Noble It is impossible to hold a discussion of Movie Magic without touching on Mary Poppins, winner of five Oscars as well as the love of three generations of children (and counting). Based on a beloved book and featuring Julie Andrews (The Sound Of Music) and Dick Van Dyke in peak musical comedy form, it also employed Walt Disneys crack animation team and an infectious, whimsical score. (Enduring highlights include "Chim Chim Cher-ee," "A Spoonful of Sugar," and that bane of spell-checks "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.") As Mary Poppins -- the cheerful, no-nonsense Nanny with rosy cheeks, a magic carpetbag, and the ability to do practically anything -- Andrews is a dream come to life for the Banks children. Though at times things look bad for young Jane and Michael, even distant dads and unforgiving bosses are no match for Ms. Poppinss combination of magic and good sense. She transports the Banks family, just as the film transports the viewer, into a world where imagination is king, penguins dance with chimneysweeps, and live-action mingles joyfully with animation, making this tuneful Disney classic a perennial favorite.
