Songwriting brothers Robert and Richard Sherman -- who penned scores for Mary Poppins, The Jungle Book and many other hit musicals -- may have specialized in family-friendly entertainment, but they did not share a friendly family relationship. Despite their professional partnership, their personal bond was so strained that their sons grew up never knowing each other. I was thrilled to see this documentary. Who knew. To see these guys at work, and how they created some of the best music we all know and love was so cool. This was like getting the inside story over the water cooler, with interesting details about working for Disney and other Hollywood higher ups. Anyone who loves music, or classic musicals should see this film. It was tragic that the brothers didn't really care for each other, but crap like that happens in families. But a look inside the mystical industry makes this film worth the watch. **If you found this information at all helpful, please take a moment to select the "yes" button below.

THE SHERMAN BROTHERS are and will be always be a very important duel. One of the greatest hires of Walt Disney himself. The Sherman Brothers wrote more motion-picture musical song scores than any other songwriting team in film history. This DVD shows some of their special and fascinating lives
