Travers claimed that she did not write specifically for children and was said to be unhappy with the decision to market the book to younger readers. Funnily enough Daisy's eyes are green in the Mario Hanafuda deck while Peach and Rosalina's eyes remain blue. Considering that Mr. George W. Banks was about to lose his job at the bank, only to regain it and far more by the end of the story, he later benefited from an extraordinarily lucky sequence of events that could be attributed to that gesture. Mary Poppins is, first and foremost, a story about a broken family. 'Foul mouth' Julie Andrews & alcoholic Dick Van Dyke traumas of Mary How many kids watching this movie grew up thinking that banks were terrifying creep-factories, out to steal all their cash? Did the supernatural nanny cast a spell over the entire family? Think of the lesson it teaches! It's all old hat to him, because he knows all of Mary's magic tricks from when he was a child! The popularity of Travers books faded over the years as racism in them became unacceptable especially the shocking descriptions of black Americans. This one is probably noticeable to English children who grew up watching the movie, but most American kids were likely fooled. "But there are contingency plans, that's the beauty of live theatre, and it's my job to cover it up as well if it does go wrong.". "The best moment came when I first heard Julie Andrews singing 'A Spoonful of Sugar.' There's singing, dancing, magic, and bright, colorful characters.

He's very lonely, and the only thing that seems to be able to make him stop laughing is being told that it's time for Mary and the kids to leave. In Mary Poppins, we're privy to a group of chimney sweeps. A very healthy figure, albeit not as high as some of Disney's other recent hits. It was a jokey, failed bid to banish the sugary-sweet reputation she had been stuck with because of the role but if she had actually told the truth behind the classic movie, she might have succeeded. Mary Poppins feels a tremendous amount of guilt for not being able to help Mr. Dawes be a better person and a better father, and for not saving Bert from a destructive home life. Did Mary drag those kids to a drug den? He is incredibly energetic and easygoing, never losing his temper or raising his voice with anyone at all and always looking on the bright side. I think Daisy would look cute with hazel eyes, and Luigi's eyes could even be a darker shade of blue like his overalls. Karen Dotrice, now 63, who played young Jane Banks in the first film, is not surprised at its treasured status.
