Movie synopsis

A magical, musical nanny brings a breath of fresh air into the stuffy Banks household in turn-of-the-century England. Overstuffed with gaiety, this children's fantasy is filled to the brim with wonderful dance numbers and outrageous songs (such as the seemingly unpronounceable "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"). The film's seamless blending of live-action with animation was a marvel in its day. This is Andrews' film debut and Darwell's last film appearance. Academy Award Nominations: 13, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best (Adapted) Screenplay. Academy Awards: 5, including Best Actress--Julie Andrews, Best Original Score, Best Song ("Chim Chim Cher-ee"), Best Editing, Best Special Visual Effects. Gold Collection Edition features "Hollywood Goes to a World Premiere."

Editorial reviews

"[T]he Poppins character was played to comely perfection by squeaky-clean Andrews, who won an Oscar."
Premiere - Premiere Staff (04/01/2004)

"[Andrews] openmouthed, eyebrow-cocked expressions became perfect embodiments of Mary's cheeky charm."
Entertainment Weekly - Steve Daly (12/17/2004)

"Mixing real-life action with animation to charming effect, it is still Julie Andrew's iconic performance that remains this film's cheeriest pleasure..."
Empire - Empire Staff (03/01/2008)

Pure Disney Classic

Created: 15/02/09
This special edition dvd is an excellent addition to any Disney or Mary Poppins fans collection. The extras, especially about the broadway show, are a lot of fun to watch. I bought this mostly for the extras about the making of the broadway show and I was not disappointed in the least. I did not buy the previous special edition dvd from five years ago, so I cannot compare to that.

Of course who can complain about the stellar cast in the movie? Julie Andrews, Dick Van Dyke and ensemble create a movie that was like no other in its time and can still hold its own in today's world.

An excellent buy for a family or for anyone who loves these types of movies.

Gotta Get This!!!!!!

Created: 06/04/09
We bought this as a replacement for the Mary Poppins dvd we lost. Its a must have for anyone with toddlers or preschool children. The music is FABULOUS, my 4 yr old knows all the words to all the songs, and belts 'em out right along with the characters! The kids absolutely LOVE this dvd. My 3 year old asks for it by name, and even the baby pays attention to it. Definitely a classic!

Awesome DVD!

Created: 28/12/10
Excellent product! The remastered DVD is so much fun to watch. I decided to start purchasing the old Disney DVDs recently as the VHS versions are not nearly as good. Even if you are able to convert your old VHS tapes into DVD the quality is not as good and you lose the covers to all of them. So I am starting to look for the DVD collection on ebay! Great decision for me! And this DVD really brings back the older memories from when I was little!

Great Video & Great for Learning Spanish

Created: 09/04/11
Unlike many American movies that are dubbed in Spanish, Mary Poppins has word for word exact subtitles for all the songs on Spanish audio track. Spanish subtitles for Spanish dialogue is not very good, but the Spanish audio is "muy lento y claro." Probably same is true for French audio, but I didn't listen to that audio.
