The Supercalifragilistic musical masterpiece that combines a delightful, Oscar-winning big screen debut by Julie Andrews, all-time great songs by the Sherman Brothers, a stellar supporting cast and ingenious effects combining live action and animation that continue to ignite the imagination. Andrews plays Mary Poppins, a magically enthusiastic nanny, who with the siblings in her charge and the help of her chimney sweep friend (Dick Van Dyke), embarks on a series of fantastic adventures in turn of the century London.
“Julie Andrews’ first appearance on the screen is a signal triumph and she performs as easily as she sings” – Variety
“Compared to even ‘sophisticated’ juvenile fodder, the sheer exuberance of Disney’s adaptation of PL Travers’ children’s classic should tickle the most jaded fancy.” – Frances Dickinson, Time Out
“I find it irresistible. Plenty of other adults will feel the same way. And, needless to say, so will the kids.” – Bosley Crowther, The New York Times
