What kind of film was Mary Poppins?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It was classed as a Musical comedy with of course, fantasy overtones. the album from the film did quite well on the album charts, as i recall. P.S. I thought it stunk and by the way do not (generally) like (Musicals) it"s odd I have nothing against music- just went to an Organ concert yesterday- but musical comedies- either the comedy is good and the music so-so or the music is okay ( Like , for the most part, Sound Of Music) but the comedy in that case almost non-existent. I saw it as a child ( first stage play I ever saw) and was baffled- a family on the lam, fleeing the police- daddy recalled to active duty in the Navy, that"s not comedy fodder!

Who created Mary Poppins the story?

Mary Poppins is a movie that has been around for since in the 90's I think. It's about this family that is falling apart. The dad is a banker and spends way too much time on his job. The mom is I think in a women's right march and doesn't spend any time with her kids. They have been hiring nannies for years and they all run away since the two kids, Michael and Jane Banks, are you naughty. They finally hire a super-nanny, Mary Poppins, and she fixes them up. Her friend Bert is a man with a lot of different and weird jobs. She and Bert help the kids realize what friendship means through a lot of adventures. One of them would be going through the chalk painting into another world. It's pretty cool, but I haven't watched it in awhile. Don't yell at me if i got it wrong..............

Books based on the movie but somewhat simplified were made under Disney license and in fact ,sold in some of the theatres ( such as the now-defunct State) when the movie was playing there, akin to programs for, say ball games. It should be noted that Walter Elias Disney , as usual took some liberties with the original stories.

This is a series novel or book- not a movie or television program. the books are quite different from the film and play. For one, Bert, Mary"s paramour and sort of revved-up St. Joseph- Francis handyman type- does not appear.

Because I was afraid to speak when

I was just a lad

Me father gave me nose a tweak

and told me I was bad

But then one day I learned a word

That saved me achin' nose

The biggest word you ever heard

And this is how it goes: Oh!

Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious!
