Two-time Academy Award\u00ae\u2013winner Emma Thompson and fellow double Oscar\u00ae-winner Tom Hanks topline Disney\u2019s \u201cSaving Mr. Banks,\u201d inspired by the extraordinary, untold backstory of how Disney\u2019s classic \u201cMary Poppins\u201d made it to the screen.<\/p>\n
When Walt Disney\u2019s daughters begged him to make a movie of their favorite book, P.L. Travers\u2019 \u201cMary Poppins,\u201d he made them a promise\u2014one that he didn\u2019t realize would take 20 years to keep. In his quest to obtain the rights, Walt comes up against a curmudgeonly, uncompromising writer who has absolutely no intention of letting her beloved magical nanny get mauled by the Hollywood machine. But, as the books stop selling and money grows short, Travers reluctantly agrees to go to Los Angeles to hear Disney\u2019s plans for the adaptation.<\/p>\n
For those two short weeks in 1961, Walt Disney pulls out all the stops. Armed with imaginative storyboards and chirpy songs from the talented Sherman brothers, Walt launches an all-out onslaught on P.L. Travers, but the prickly author doesn\u2019t budge. He soon begins to watch helplessly as Travers becomes increasingly immovable and the rights begin to move further away from his grasp.<\/p>\n
It is only when he reaches into his own childhood that Walt discovers the truth about the ghosts that haunt her, and together they set Mary Poppins free to ultimately make one of the most endearing films in cinematic history.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
