As a young child from a disturbed family back in the 60's, Mary Poppins gave me HOPE. She been like a best friend. Thank you for this look behind the curtains.

Similar upbringing here. My favorite childhood memories include hanging out with my little brother and watching Mary Poppins and The Wizard of Oz together at my grandparents home. We’d snack on fresh fruit from the backyard and gummy worms.

I was in London recently and it was a cool, windy, early Spring day and the branches were blowing slightly in the wind and I was looking out the hotel window at the chimneys on the buildings and I truly wondered if Mary Poppins was going to go floating by…

Pamela Travers was born in a regional Queensland city - Maryborough. Maryborough is Mary Poppins town, We have an annual Mary Poppins festival, a museum, statue, memorabilia, and even the traffic lights feature Mary Poppins. It would have been nice if the documentary made reference to this. We're keeping the dream alive x

We went again the following weekend and my life was changed after watching Mary Poppins. Ioved all the fantasy of the film. I had to have a Mary Poppins doll, a Mary Poppins tapestry bag and umbrella. I played make believe forever with my school friend. It was magical. My father bought the soundtrack and we acted out every song . A few years sgo i went out to eat Easter meal. Guess who dat across from me with her family.....Julie Andrews!! I was thrilled😁.

When I was young, prior to the movie, my mother would read me the stories from the book she had as a child. It was a tan hardcover cloth book of the first two books, Mary Poppins and Mary Poppins Returns. I still have that book, as well as Mary Poppins Opens The Door & Mary Poppins In the Park, and they are truly precious to me. When she heard rumors about Disney making the movie, we bought a few shares in Disney stock just for fun. When I visited London, a decade or so ago, Mary Poppins was playing on stage. My ex and I went, and I bought my mother a parrot umbrella, as she said that she always wanted one. She was elated when I gave it to her. Unfortunately, she passed a few years later, having never been able to use it. At her funeral, I leaned the umbrella against her coffin at the gravesite service. A breeze came up and knocked it over, breaking the beak. I've always felt that nobody should have used that umbrella, since she never did. I smiled, picked up the two pieces and have it in the original box as a memory. She never got to see Saving Mr. Banks.

I think the biographer was wrong when she stated that the young readers would not necessarily pick up on the "cosmic" nature of Mary Poppins. I did and it was rather creepy. The movie is rather creepy. Like the force behind the character could turn evil or silent or vengeful at any moment. I liked the book and the movie, but it always had a dark side to it for me, even as a child.

I've always had a love-hate relationship with Mary Poppins. On the one hand, it was a huge influence on my childhood and the lighthearted scenes brought me great joy, on the other hand, however, there were scenes that deeply creeped me out and still do to this day. When I watch the movie I still skip over all of the bank scenes for example.

I agree that PL Travers probably thought it, but Bert didn't take Mary Poppins' place in saving Mr. Banks. She set the whole climax of the movie in motion purposefully; no competent nanny would think that two energetic children in a bank all day would be anything but a disaster. Bert IS the one who has the literal moment with Banks, but Banks also strikes me as the kind of character that would not take advice from a woman as easily. Bert is a very enthusiastic pawn in the game Mary is playing, he's acting on her behalf. Even if he isn't, that moment doesn't happen without Mary conning Banks into taking the children to work with him.

@@garycarpenter2980 As much as I loved this program and everything to do with Mary Poppins it was/is a stab in my heart learning that she separated a pair of twins. If she hadn't come along they may have been separated anyway and it was their family who allowed it to happen. But after watching programs about twin studies and the results from separating them it hits my soul differently. It's impossible to tell from this program, but it seems to have effected her son's twin more than it did him.

I am believing her personality of disconnecting from people was greatly influenced by her childhood. She centered her life around herself by withdrawing into her world of "Mary Poppins.". I think the mere fact that her dad died while she still was in her childhood years, plus her mother distant herself from her life as well, created a dependence on herself to resolve any or whatever life threw at her. Due to these 2 factors... aided her uneasiness to how she was so disappointed how the writing of the movie concerning the main character was dismissed in Mary Poppins not given the gracious credit within the story in solving the differences between the dad and children. For being that Mary Poppins was her character, she should have been given that task to offer the solution to the children.

Many writers would tell you they're just taking dictation, or that the idea jumped on them from outside themselves, or that they just watch the story and write down what they see. It's not an unusual phenomenon. Creativity has been thought of as a gift rather than an inborn thing for millenia. Travers was in a long tradition.

I wonder if her actions during the creation of the film was more from a deep desire to not give up her creation. maybe she was oping she would be ridiculous enough, Disney would drop the project. Authors are deeply attached to their work.some may difficulty letting go.

Forced perspective is an old filmmaker's trick. I love to see non-computer-generated effects in cinema, like what is used in live theater and old films.

What is it about the loss of a father when you are 7 years old? P.l. response was much like my own. It is one thing I and my husband shared, and the effects, though so much else about our individual lives was so disparate, that have united us in a very visceral way.

Sounds like a very sad, sad little girl who was totally neglected so she invented Mary Poppins, poor chipmunk. I thought Poppins came from a happy soul not a tortured one. Disaster.

She also hated the movie and forbid any other movies from being made while she was alive, and she didn't care for how the movie focused on the soft side of Mary Poppins(as she preferred the sterner side).

If your wondering where the author was born she was born in Australian QLD Maryborough. And if you drive around the town you can see a museum of where she was born and its also a museum about Mary Poppins.

I live just along the road from Maryborough, in addition to everything else there - the pedestrian crossings, instead of having the silhouette of a person standing on a red background for STOP and a silhouette of a person walking, on a green background for GO, the silhouettes feature the unmistakable shape of Mary Poppins complete with hat, umbrella and carpet bag. Standing/STOP and Walking/GO 😂.

Camillus died from the effects of alcoholism in 2011. When he starts to cry and asks for a drink I want to say to him, Can you actually feel what you are feeling rather than try to drink it away?

Bear U, it can be expressed and it can be grieved. There are ways to really heal. In fact, we know now that even the most extreme trauma can be treated by retelling it in the right setting again and again. Alcohol and drugs deaden pain; they don't remove it or heal it. They just leave you that much less equipped to deal with it, as well as life.

Since the movie, more accurate that a lot is to be revealed about her. She's very far from unknown & a lot of her backstory came out w/the interest generated by the movie. Fascinating documentary, but let's face it: It's piggybacking on the film. Emma Thompson looks GREAT here.

This may have been made as a complimentary piece to the movie. Definitely not piggy backing on it since much of the filming was done before the movie came out. Camillus passed away in 2011 and the movie came out 2 years later.
