This is one of my favorite movies. I watched it yet again the other night. It is so moving. I thought it was a lighthearted look at Disney by the ads. When I saw it I was in tears. It is sad and beautiful. It’s not about Disney or making Mary Poppins. That’s just the setting. If you haven’t seen it, watch it. Thompson is fantastic playing PL Travers as still basically an injured child. Fantastic performance

Thank God that Emma Thompson is nothing like P.L.Travers. She actually has a sense of humor which is needed to survive in Hollywood.

I LOVED this film. Emma Thompson was marvellous. I watched it on a long flight to Hong Kong and literally wept during the "Kite" scene. So nostalgic too because Mary Poppins was the first film I was ever taken to see at the Monaco in Rhiwbina when I was about 4 years old!

Yeah, have to admit tears were forming my eyes at the end of the movie. I’m a adult ,52, but I can say Mary Poppins is my all time favorite Disney movie since I was a boy. So when this came out, I was ecstatic. Even accidentally saw some of the making(was attending something else, and walked by the “movie premier scene “ and saw Hanks etc.

Nanny McPhee is also the opposition to Mary Poppins in the sense of the people that want her but I will say that there is a connection of how both don't want to say direct goodbyes. With Mary, the children want her and the parents are the ones who end up learning the majority of the lessons. With McPhee, the parents are at wit's end and don't know where to turn, whether due to loss or misdirection. The kids learn the basics and this displays magic by McPhee's appearance becoming more appealing. This then teaches the children the main lessons of all - be kind and don't judge by appearances. It also proves to the adults that you can do it on your own, just with a clear direction. Though I believe both share this same sentiment of Nanny McPhee's. "When you want me, but no longer need me, then I have to go."

I loved this movie that moved me so much!I had already seen and enjoyed very Howards End, Nanny McPhee and another of her works, now with this film she overcame! I didn't know why Mary Poppings thrilled me so much especially that part where Julie Andrews sings " Feed the birds", I think this should have won the Oscar for best actress! Enma Thompson was so great and superb on this caracter!She played so well that woman Ms. PJ Travers that thrilled me with her problems in childhood, why it was so difficult to handle her like a real Greta Garbo who put the Disney studios on the knees, she had fear that they would distort story of the book that was in the background a story of her own life,the love that she had in her father.Tom hanks was also great as Walt Disney although I think Disney was a little more cheerful,i do not think he was a misogynistic as the infamous Meryl Streep of the old spoiled Hollywood said ,she kissing until woman in the mouth, this shameless!

Thank you. That speech was based on lies and Meryl didn't do her research. She's literally a puppet. So many came to disneys defence. He did hire women. But as the years went by he allowed them to work longer and in different positions. The reason why he couldn't do so at first was because they would not be educated by their families who, before the war, deemed them worthless. They would also marry or have a father over them who wouldn't allow long hours if any work at all. They would also have children and devote their lives to them. Not like now. And her whole thing about an employee saying Walt didn't trust women was a section of a book. It was about him looking at his daughters and wife eyeing a cat and him telling someone a joke about how he doesn't trust cats or women anymore. Meryl is a puppet. She stole Emma's thunder and that's why she didn't get her award.

Describing P.L. Travers as everyone has, it seems rather ironic that she would even create a "Mary Poppins" type of character. It's quite obvious a character for children. Did P.L. Travers write a book on Mary Poppins? I'd love to read it!

Emma Thompson was fantastic as PL Travers. However, I knew so little about Mary Poppins before I saw this movie that I thought she was playing Julie Andrews. In addition, I think it's rather ironic that she was so great as Mrs. Travers when she's such an elegant, classy-looking woman and Pamela Travers the person looked more (and apparently acted) like Mama Fratelli.
