TRAVERS:Winds in the East
Mist coming in
Like something is brewing, about to begin
Can't put me finger on what lies in store
But I feel what's to happen, all happened before
Mrs Travers.
Like pink clouds on sticks.
Excuse me?
The cherry blossoms, I was trying to think of what it looks like
The car should be here, by now.
May I use.. the phone?
I cancelled it. - yöu? What?
Pamela! - Mrs Travers.
Mrs Travers...
Why would yöu cancel the car? - I shan't be going.
We've been through this.
- I've changed my mind. - yöu made an agreement.
Do yöu understand? A verbal agreement.
Why in the world are yöu speaking to me as if I am a neonate?
He's going to - What? What is he going to do? Sue?
He is very welcome to every penny I don't posess.
LookI've represented yöu for a long time.
I like to think of yöu as a friend
I like to think of it, believe me I know it's not reciprocated.
I would never,
suggest yöu do something that would cause yöu anguish but there's no more money Pamela
Mrs Travers. Simply no more.
Sales have dried up, no more royalties. yöu refuse to write further books so-
Do yöu understand? I'm..
I'm..frightened, yöu don't understand what that means.
I know what he's going to do to her
- she'll be cavorting and twinkling! Careening towards a happy ending like a kamikaze
We've been trying to do this deal for twenty years!
He's agreed to both yöur stipulations. No animation,
script approval - Use her to pay my bills? If I believed..
in a hell I'll be sitting in its waiting room
script approval! He's never granted anything like that before! I don't know what else to do!
Where is Polly? - I fired her.
It's just as well. It seems I can't afford her anymore anyway.
yöu don't know how much she means to me.
Polly?
Of course not Polly!
For God's sake. Los...Angeles.
yöu have only to go there and work for two weeks.
Collaborate.
yöu haven't signed the rights over, yet. - Yet!
yöu must make it work Mrs Travers - Oh I must, must I?
yöu need the money. I don't want yöu to see yöu - Stop saying money! It's a filthy, disgusting word!
I am picking up the telephone Mrs Travers
I..I have final say? - yöu do.
I have final say.
And if I don't like what they are doing to her?
Then, yöu don't sign the papers.
He cannot make the film unless yöu grant the rights.
It's an exploratory trip
What do yöu say?
I want to keep my house.
mm..hhm? Excuse me ma'am,
have yöu seen my daughter?
I was quite sure, I had left her around here somewhere!
Her name is Helen,
no, erm.. Shirley,
No, erm.. good lord; I've quite forgotten!
Could it be Prunella? - No!
Pamela? - No, no...no. No!
I'm sure I have a special name for her.. - Ginty!
Why, thank yöu ma'am! Ginty it is of course!
Now, have yöu seen her? - It's me!
Gosh! So it is!
Well, thank goodness for that!
I was positive, I was going to be beheaded for losing..
Her Highness.. The Royal Princess Ginty Mc Featherfluffy!
yöu can't lose me!
Never. I promise.
I will never lose yöu!
yöu ready? Are yöu sure?
C'mon! The adventure is about to begin! C'mon.
Line: 84 (Silen=83.62) (EMedp=1.985)
Line: 85 (Silen=80.21) (EMedp=2.171)
Can I help yöu? - I'm perfectly capable thank yöu.
They've used all the space;
...so greedy. - I'll take it Madam. I can put it up in front.
I don't want it up there. I would it here,
in the corresponding holding area for my assigned seat!
The flight's closing in just a few moments Madam. I'll have to take it.
yöu can move mine instead. It's the grey one.
- Thank yöu.
Will the child be a nuisance? It's an eleven hour flight.
Er no, - Jolly good.
I hope we crash.
Where is he carriage?
A carriage? Who needs a carriage?
But, there's so many... - Every leisurely stroll is a gift, Darling!
It's a gift!
Now, Biddy.. are up staying?
yöu're coming with us? - Mmm, hm.
Excellent!
Thank yöu so much. For everything.-: D
Thank yöu, Miss.
Hurry up, everyone! We mustn't be late the train.
All aboard! Everybody ready?
Yes.
See yöu soon Katie Nanna! - Take care, love.
Everybody ready?
Walking bus! Left, right..left...
Miss?
Thank yöu.
Left. Left, right left...
And, one, two three- New town,
new job, new bank. New life.
Come on, my little ducklings!
Left, right left.. C'mon, come along!
Hold!
Allora
Ginty, Come on, my love.
Ladies and Gentlemen, we begin our descent into Los Angeles."
Fiery dust, I see.
Travers? P.L. Travers? - Mrs.
Welcome, Mrs P.L. Travers! Welcome to the City of Angels.
Let me take those.
I'm perfectly capable of Oh, nevermind.
Sun came out to say hello just to yöu.
Don't be preposterous.
It smells. Like
Jasmine. chlorine and sweat.
It's dreadful.
Absurt.
yöu okay back there Mrs P.L. Travers?
It's not Mrs P.L. It's just Mrs Oh, it's too hot.
No problemo!
No problemo! We got a brand new air conditioning system, Missus;
Just about make yöu feel like yöu're in good old Engerland again!
Things they can put in cars these days
Gosh almighty.
No problemo.
And, here we are. Ma'm.
Thank yöu. - Ma'am?
Would yöu like me to unpack for yöu ma'am?
yöung man, if it is yöur wish to handle ladies garments;
May I suggest, yöu take employment in a launderette.
Odd.
Oh, Dear.
For Heaven's sake...
What on earth..
Oh no, no, no. No, no, no.
This will never do.
Absolutely, no pears.
No pears.
A palace!
Complete with mighty steed.
And chickens.
Oh, my..
We'll build beautiful memories here my angel.
Girls, come on.
in this house, yöu get to share room.
How old do yöu think i am?
A five years old... I suppose.
And yöu can stay there until yöu learn the art of subtlety.
There yöu are.
Don't worry!
There's nothing wrong with yöur television set.
This is a pixie bell,
the sound is much too high for human ears.
Oh, there yöu are Tink!
Hey! What..Hey!
Get that stuff off of me!
yöu know, if yöu're familiar with our story of Peter Pan.
yöu know, a little sprinkling of fairy dust can make yöu fly!
Where are yöu going, Tink? Haven't yöu forgotten something?
Off!
That's how we deal with yöu.
Good morning Mrs! - It's not Mrs, it's Oh, nevermind.
We're just not going to get it right are we?
What's that?
Will it be the same..
driver every day? - Yes ma'am! I'm all yöurs.
Hey, Sun came out again!
yöu say it like yöu're surprised. As if the sun is particular about whom it appears.
It seems yöu think that I am responsible, for it's miraculous dawning every day.
For heaven's sake, it's California!
It certainly is!
I would so much rather be accountable for the rain.
Oh, that's sad.
Sad is entirely the wrong emotion.
I shan't bother explaining why; it'll just...Zip!
Okey dokey.
The rain brings life!
So does the sun.
Be quiet! - Yes ma'am.
I'll get that, Sir!
Got it? - Yes, sir.
Good morning! Pamela!
It is so discomfiting to hear a perfect stranger use my first name.
Mrs Travers. Please.
I do apologize,
Mrs Travers. I am Don DaGradi, the script writer.
Co-script-writer. I shall certainly be having my say Mr. DiGraydi.
Gradi.
Wonderful! I welcome yöur input. - If indeed we ever sign off on a script.
Right, uhmm..
this is the rest of yöur team, This is Dick and Bob Sherman! Music and lyrics.
Boys, this is the one and only Mrs P.L. Travers, creator of our beloved Mary.
Poppins. - Who else? - Mary Poppins.
Never ever, just Mary.
A pleasure to meet yöu, though I fear we shan't be acquainted for too long.
Why is that? - B'cos These books...
simply do not lend themselves to chirping and prancing.
No. Certainly not a musical.
Now, where is Mister Disney?
I should so much like to get this started and finished as briskly as is humanly possible.
Perhaps, one of yöu can point me in his direction. That'd be superb..wonderful. Thank yöu.
We were hoping to give yöu a little tour of the studio.
No thank yöu.
Walt just wants to show the place off.
No one likes a show off.
Mrs Travers it's quitea long way
Not a musical?
I am perfectly capable of walking.
Good morning. - Good morning, Dolly..
Could yöu let Mister Disney know I have arrived please?
Absolutely, please have a seat.
Oh, no. There's no need.
He'll be just a.. a moment, Mrs.Travers. Why don't we sit.
She's here!
A word of advice Mrs Travers, if I may.
yöu may. Whether I heed it or not will be another matter entirely.
Uhm. It's just that he can't stand being called Mr Disney.
We are all on a first name basis here.
Well,
there ya are at last!
Oh, my dear gal!
yöu can't imagine how excited I am to finally meet yöu!
Hum well, It's an honour, Mister Disney. - Oh Walt, yöu gotta call me Walt.
‘Mister Disney?was my old man. Isn't that right, Don?
Absolutely, Walt.
Tommie, say hello to... the one and only Pamela Travers!
It's so nice to meet yöu.
Ya know, I can't believe it. P.L. Travers, right here, in my office,
after all these years almost twenty of ‘em.
Yes. - Twenty. Long. Years.
Wish ya coulda?seen me then Pam!
As lean as a whippet I was! A race horse!
Well, anyway...
here yöu are. Look at yöu!
I could eat yöu up!
That wouldn't be appropriate.
yöu know what. When Diane here was...
seven years old can I get yöu a drink? Coffee? Soda?
And Diane said to me, why daddy,
A pot of tea would be most welcome.
Anyway, She was seven years old and I was walking past her room..
Well, I didn't even know what a Mary Poppins was!
and there she was on her bed reading to her sister Sharon,
and well, thsoe gals were giggling their little socks off!
Tommie,
A hot tea for Pamela and Me.
She's a doll.
Anyways,
I asked them girls, what's so funny??
Mary Poppins!?
And then she gave me yöur book. And oh, by gosh! My imagination was caught on fire!
Absolutely, ON FIRE!
And those embers have burned ever since as yöu know. - I do.
Yes. - Twenty years!
So yöu keep saying
A man cannot...
break a promise he's made to his kids. No matter how long it takes for him..
to make it come true..Now,
yöu might've kept me dangling all this time,
but now, I gotcha!
Gotcha indeed!
Mister Disney, if yöu have
dangled then it is at the end of a rope yöu have fashioned for yöurself.
I was perfectly clear, when yöu approached me 20 years ago..that she wasn't for sale
and I was clear again when yöu approached me the following year, and clear again when yöu approached me every annum
for the subsequent 18 years. Quite honestly, I feel corralled,
Oh no, Pam, the last thing I wanna do is to make yöu feel - Would yöu mind, my name, is MRS Travers.
I promised them.
That's a fact. yöu got kids? - No, not precisely...
I have never, I absolutely never, gone back on a promise i made to either one of my daughters.
That's what being a daddy is all about right?
Is it?
Our motion picture isn't just going to make my kids happy.
It's going to make ALL kids happy! Adults too...
B'cos, my guys are gonna do things with it that are, well, are revolutionary.
Pam, REVOLUTIONARY! yöur Mary Poppins is gonna literally fly off the pages of yöur books!
Thank yöu, Tommie.
This magical woman who has only lived in yöur head, yöu're gonna be able to meet her, speak to her, hear her sing.
Now, this singing, I am glad yöu've come to that.
oh, Milk in first, please.
Then, the tea.
And a spoonful of sugar.
yöu don't mean for this film to be a musical?
I absolutely do!
No. - No?
No.
Mister Disney, Mary Poppins..
does not sing.
Yes she does!
When? - In yöur books!
Those aren't songs! They're recitations.
She is not a giddy woman,
she does not jig about! Singing is frivolous and wholly unnecessary,
for a governess, an educatress. No. It would just ruin it.
I won't have her turned into one of yöur silly cartoons.
Now...Pam,
I want yöu to know
that the last thing I would do,
the very last thing,
is tarnish a story, I have cherished. Now, the pages
pages of yöur book are worn down to tissue,
They are dog eared and falling out. B'cos, I have poured over them gripped, tormented.
Because I love her, Pam.
I love Mary Poppins,
yöu... yöu got to share her, with me.
Nothing happens without yöur say so.
Quite right. - It's all here, in the rights agreement.
As approved by yöur agent,Dermot. - Diarmuid.
Darmitt.
A live action film. No animation.
Live action. Here's a pen.
I'll like that on tape. - On tape?
yöur promise and all the discussions we have here on tape.
Ah huh, there yöu are.
Mary Poppins and the Banks's, they're family to me.
I understand now. I do.
Well then!
Shall we begin?
Let's make something wonderful.
Let's see if that's at all possible.
Woah.
Damn.
Testing, one, two.
What is all this...
jollification? - We have a whole script to get through.
It's gonna be a long day Mrs T.
Mrs.. Mrs Travers.
We could save a starving country with benefaction from this room alone!
Ugh, It's so vulgar.
Could yöu, turn on
Now, Let us begin.
Scene one. - Scene one. Ext.
Exterior Cherry Tree Lane. - Ext? What's Ext?
Exterior. It means the scene is taking place outside.
Ah, I see, an abbreviation.
Oh, I'm sorry Mr DaGradi, did yöu feel yöu should?
No, No, please be my guest, Mrs Travers.
Yes, I do think it's best. I've the most practise.
Readings of my books yöu know?
Absolutely. - Anyway
Scene one. Exterior.
17 Cherry Tree Lane, London. Day.
Yes. That's good, that can stay.
- That's just the scene heading! Though I do think we should say number 17, instead of just 17,It's proper. Yes?
- No one's going to see it.
I will see it.
Write it down, write it down, chop chop.
Is that on the tape? We got that?
Ahh..Yes. -Very good.
onwards.
I'm sorry to interrupt.
Is this a joke?
Excuse me? - Do yöu think yöu are a comedienne?
I'm sorry I don't understand.
Unbelievable.
I think we are all set with..with.. thank yöu.
Scene One. Exterior. Number
17 Cherry Tree Lane. London. Day.
Bert, a one-man band- The rumour is that this is to be yöur Mr.Van Dyke. Is that right?
We do hope so! - Well, we'll see about that.
It's a horrid idea.
Dick is one of the greats.
Dick Van Dyke?! - Yes.
Robert, my dear,
Olivier is one of the greats, Burton, Guinness
- greats without question. I can assure yöu.. I can assure yöu
that Dick Van Dyke is not!
Bert, a one-man band plays to a small gathering outside the gates to the park.
Bert says yöu can do Bert.
Thank yöu. Ahhmm?
Guys..shall we...
give it a whirl?
What's happening?
What're yöu doing?
Alright Ladies and gents, comical poem, suitable for the occasion
extemporized and thought up before yöur very eyes!
Alright, here we go
Room here for everyone gather around,
The constable's "responstable."
Now, how does that sound? - No no no no... no no no.
Responstable
is not a word.
We made it up! - well..
un-make it up.
Irresponstable.
There's my girl.
Ahhh,
That's it, boy. Albert c'mon. Give Ginty a kiss.
There yöu go.
Poor old Albert;
he's yöur secret uncle yöu know?
But a miserable, horrid witch turned him into a nag.
Why did she do that?
Because she hated the sound of his laugh.
Poor Uncle Albert! How can we fix him?
We have to teach the witch how to be happy again.
How?
I'm not quite sure darling.
Do yöu want to know what it feels like to fly Ginty?
Albert. yöu old nag. Come here.
yöu trust me? - Yes.
Yah!
Nobody walks.
Leisurely stroll's a gift.
Beautiful ain't it?
If yöu like that sort of thing.
I do.
We do find it helps to have a visual.
Plus, It's fun!
No, no, no. Goodness me, no.
- No?
The Banks house doesn't look like that! No No.
My house is a terraced house
with a pink door, white bricked
with a crack in the gable. - Okay, we get it. The house is not what yöu pictured.
The window frames are lead-lined
and the flower boxes grow pink nasturtiums to go with the pink door.
We got that?
Oh dear, it's all a big mistake. It's all wrong.
It's all wrong? - It's too grand!
The Banks's are - normal, everyday sort of people.
This isn't normal. It isn't everyday!
They're not aristocrats!
Oh, Do I even have to say it?
Um i'm afraid so.
Why in the world have yöu made Mrs Banks a silly suffragette?
- I wonder if Emmeline P would agree with that adjective
Quite possibly, looking back. - It does seem
strange that Mrs Banks allows her children to spend all of their time
with the nanny when she has no job to speak of
Are yöu calling Mrs Banks neglectful? - Yep.
No! Of course not! We just felt that if she had a job
it would go some way to explaining - Being a mother is a job.
A very difficult job and one that not everybody is up to, that not everybody should have taken on in the first place!
I will NOT have her called Cynthia! Absolutely not. It feels unlucky.
At least something warm,
something a bit.. sexy.
How about Mavis?
Sybil? - Great.
Prudence? - Gwendolyn?
Winifred!
I could go with Winifred.
Yes, that's because it's very good.
This isn't Mr Banks? This isn't him. - Yes, that's him Mr.Banks.
He has a set of moustaches!
In the books he - I told the illustrator I didn't like the facial hair
but she chose to ignore me. Now, this time around..
This is MY film and I shall have MY way.
Mrs Travers, it was a specific request, from Walt.
Why?
I think he identify.. - He didn't, he doesn't, Mr Banks is clean shaven!
Does it matter?
Does it
mattterrrrrrr?
yöu can wait outside!
I shan't say it again Robert.
What is wrong with his leg?
He got shot.
Hardly surprising.
Can I expect anymore drama from anyone else?
Why do yöu do that?
For yöu my dear!
Tell me, Gintamina.
Which kind of kisses do yöu prefer..
Scratchy ones or silky ones?
- Silky ones.
Well then, Swish! Swoosh!
A man must shave for to spare his daughter's cheeks!
Swish!
SUPERCALIFRAGILISTICEXPIALIDOCIOUS. - Stop! Stop! Stop!
What on earth are yöu talking about? Supercali? Supercali
or whatever the infernal thing is! - It's something to say when,
when yöu don't know what to say! - Well I always know what to say.
If yöu so much as step one foot in here
with that tray I shall scream!
One cannot live on cake alone!
Hit me with it.
She has a lot of ideas.
Ya? What kind of ideas?
The name Cynthia has been changed to Winifred.
Fine, fine.
She won't approve Dick Van Dyke.
The sketches of the Banks house make it look too opulent,
there must be no hint of romance between Mary Poppins and Bert,
she wants to know why Mr Banks has been given a moustache, I asked for that.
Yes. They did tell her that but she wants to know why.
Because, I asked for it.
Right. Of course.
Uh the tape measure Mary Poppins uses to record Jane and Micheal's height must be a roll tape,
not a ruler,
She only wants green vegetables and broth,
I don't know what that is
but she wants it in the room from now on
and oh! She doesn't want the colour red in the film
at all.
I've simply gone off the colour.
We can't make the film without the colour red!
The film is set in London for pete's sake.
- And?
There's buses and mail boxes
and guards uniforms heck! The British flag!
I understand yöur predicament Mr Disney, I do.
I just hm I don't know what it is,
I'm just suddenly very anti-red.
I shan't be wearing it ever again.
Is this a test Pamela?
Are yöu requiring proof
of how badly I wanna make yöu happy so that we can create this beautiful thing together?
I took yöu at yöur word Mr Disney?
and it seems my first stipulation has been denied.
There will be many more,
so perhaps we should just call it quits;
and I should hand yöu back these.
Alright.
No red in the picture.
What?! Walt?
He doesn't have the rights
Quite.
Tommie!
Scotch Mist.
What do yöu think?
What do I think I what? - yöu're a woman.
That's a canny observation Walt.
What am I missing here?
yöu think the female of the species has some sort
of psychic insight when it comes to others of her kind?
We don't.
yöu'll get yöurself an ulcer with all that unriddling.
Give it up.
That woman.
Good afternoon Ma'am. What can I fix yöu?
A pot of tea. If yöu please.
Sure thing.
Thank yöu. Tea is a balm for the soul don't yöu agree?
Girls, will yöu please just..
In yöu go.
Alright?
Ahoy Goffs! - Father!
Ahh, that's better.
What a wonderful surprise!
Did yöu finish early?
couldn't stop thinking about my beautiful girls on this
beautiful day in this beautiful place..
.. and I thought to hell with it!
Don't yöu have work to do? - But
Buts are for goats my love!
I'll put in extra hours tomorrow.
A gift of a pear, for my lady.
Now...What are we playing?
-The hen got out and we've been trying to catch her!
That's no hen!
That's Aunt Ellie,
yöur mother's horrendiferous sister!
That's a made up word! - Yes, it is.
Hury! Catch her before she flies away on the - West Wind!
West Wind!
darling, it's just that um a little scared
Meg sweet, I had a throat scratch
But, the bank is getting yöu down again?
Perhaps my sister - no!
God no!
No. I can endure.
I will endure. For the girl's sake
Just, please not Ellie.
She's a Foul fowl.
It's gotta be like a slogan! - Her prescription for life.
An apple a day. - A stitch in time!
Time and tide wait for no man.
Sugar!
Sugar? - Yeah.
Jeff had vaccination day at school yesterday.
No ouch. - No ouch?
Sugar. They put it in a cube. - Medicine in sugar?
Cube's an odd word.
Spoonful?
yöu need sugar with sugar.
Well, Morning! May I walk with yöu?
I'm sure yöur country doesn't have any laws against it..
Nope. Go back to the chorus.
Chorus..Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down!
medicine..
It's missing...?
WAIT! She always does what's unexpected.
She goes UP the bannisters.
So, go up.
Just.. a... spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.
That's it. That's it!
Man is in the forest. I want yöu to play that..
for him. Walt?
It's just a chorus Tell us what yöu think.
He knows dum dum Will help dum dum dum duuuum!
For a..a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down
the medicine go do-own, medicine go down;
Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down.
In a most de da dee daaa!
We'll work out the other lyrics. - yöu see how it goes up on the word down?
It's ironic. - Forget ironic, it's iconic.
I won't be able to stop singing that for weeks!
Well, It seems enormously patronising to me.
The very sort of annoying tune yöu would have playing in yöur themed park I daresay.
All giddy and carefree, encouraging children to face the world unarmed.
All they need is a spoon and some sugar and a brain full of fluff and they're equipped with life'stools.
Wonderful!
What's yöur point Pam?
- MRS Travers! Please.
My point is that, unlike yöurself, Mary Poppins is the very enemy of whimsy and sentiment.
She is truthful,
She doesn't sugar coat the darkness in the world that these children will eventually come to know.
She prepares them for it, she deals in honesty!
One must clean one's room; it won't magically do it itself!
This entire script is flim flam!
Where is its heart?
Where is its reality? Where...
.. is the gravitas?
No weight Mister Disney!
See?
No whimsy or sentiment says the woman..
who sends a flying nanny with a talking umbrella to save the children.
yöu think Mary Poppins is saving the children Mr Disney?
Oh dear.
Mr Belhatchett! - Good afternoon.
Allow me
I want yöu gone.
Ginty!
Sweet thing! What are yöu doing here?
yöu said today was ice cream day.
Ice cream day! Yes! I did!
What kind of father am I? Come here.
Are yöu fired again?
Ah, yes it does seem that - No sweetheart
No. He isn't.
Darling, wait inside for a second.
If yöu can't straighten up for yöur own sake.
Do it for yöur daughter.
Irresponsible.
We share a Celtic soul, yöu and I.
This world..
is just an illusion, Ginty old girl.
As long as we hold that thought dear, they can't break us.
They can't make us endure their reality.
They can bloody as it is.
Money, money, money.
Don't yöu buy into it Ginty!
It'll bite yöu on the bot!
I loathe this place, Mr Russell.
It's bringing up these it's..
it's so hot and stuffy I
..feel as I am being attacked.
These odd dreams,
like my subconscious is after me. Punishing me..
for entertaining the idea that I might..
... hand her over.
I am at war with myself Mr Russell.
The script is ghastly,
empty pack, exactly as I expected
Yes, a few more days and then I'll decide
Serves me right. Money, money, money.
Bit me on the bot.
All around the cathedral
the saints and apostles
look down as she sells her wares.
Although yöu can't see it
yöu know they are smiling
Each time someone shows that he cares
Though her words are simple
and few listen,
listen, she's calling to yöu
Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
tuppence,
tuppence a....
...bag.?/i>
That'll work.
She's going to say no isn't she?
The woman is a conundrum.
My world was calm,
well ordered,
exemplary
Then came this person,
with chaos in her wake.
And, now my life's ambitions go
with one
fell blow
It's quite a bitter pill to
take.
Inspired by someone we know?
yöu'll have to ask Bob.
She might surprise us all.
No! No..she won't.
yöu don't know that. - No, I do. I do know it,
I know it only too well.
I've fought this battle from her side.
Pat Powers,
he wanted the mouse
and I didn't have a bean in my pocker, back then. He was this big, terrifying...
New York producer and I was just a kid from Missouri, with a sketch of Mickey.
It woulda?killed me, to give him up.
Honest to god, that would've killed me.
That mouse, he is family.
Go home.
The world..
is an illusion Ginty, old gal.
Ahh, the Countess- Mary Sparklestick!
Pray tell me, what are yöu concentrating so hard on?
I am laying eggs!
Really!? Fabulous!
Today, I am a hen.
Indeed! I can see the feathers sprouting as we speak!
Helen Goff, would yöu lay the table for supper please? - I'm not Helen!
She can't possibly lay a table; she's busy laying eggs!
Helen, would yöu lay the table for supper please? - She's laying!
I'm sorry!
I should - Ginty?
Don't yöu ever stop dreaming Ginty my love.
yöu can be anyone yöu want to be.
Anyone. - I want to be just like yöu.
Don't.
Ya alright Mrs?
DON:Mrs Travers?
Mrs Travers?
We were just saying that we'll like to play yöu the song in the bank.
Would that be good?
Fidelity Feduciary Bank.
So yöu have tuppence? May I be permitted to see it?
No, I want it to feed the birds! Michael says,
Fiddlesticks boy! Feed the birds and what've yöu got?
Fat birds!
But! If yöu invest yöur tuppence
wisely in the bank
Safe and sound
Soon, that tuppence safely invested in the bank
Mrs Brill said Father's presenting the medals.
He is indeed! On behalf of the bank.
Maybe, he will pin one on me, for the maple.
He might. - Where is Father?
I think, he is practising his speech somewhere.
In the hands of the directors
who invest as propriety demands.
Father
Why is he speaking for the bank?
He's the manager..Sir.
He looks terrible.
Good afternoon, distinguished guests,
our biggest supporter, Mr Randolph Belhatchett
and his lovely wife,
ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls!
I'm honoured to be here on behalf of
the Belhatchett Bank of Australia.
Shortly, it will uh..
It'll be my very pleasant duty to present the awards to our uhhm..
our yöung performers.
But before,
I begin,
I'll like to say a very few words
to our very yöungest citizens about the er, about the.. er
the role...
of the Bank in our community.
When yöu deposit tuppence
in a bank account,
Soon.. - Soon yöu'll see,
that it blooms into credit of..
a generous amount
Semi-annually!
And yöu'll achieve that sense of stature
As yöur influence expands. To the high
financial strata
That established credit now commands
yöu can purchase, first and second trust deeds
Think of the foreclosures! Bonds! Chattels! Dividends!
Shares! - Bankruptcies! - Debtor sales!
Opportunities! All manner of private enterprise!
Shipyards! The Mercantile! Collieries!
Tanneries! Incorporations! Amalgamations! Banks!
Uhmm. Thank yöu kindly. Thank yöu.
It's a marvellous thing..
to encourage children to open accounts.
marvellous!
My daughter, the Princess Ginty
she's uh.
How old are yöu?
Come up here.
Come here, Ginty.
Ginty has an account
and that's good.
Give her a drink!
I mean.. give her a hand.
I shall return in just a few moments, to present the awards.
But right now,
I need to relieve myself.
Give us yöur shoulder, Ginty, will yöu?
I'm busting. There's a good girl.
It works. - It's getting great.
Why did yöu have to make him so cruel? He was not a monster!
Who are we talking about? I'm confused.
yöu all have children, yes? - Yes.
And do those children make letters for yöu, do they write letters, make drawings...
And would yöu tear up those gifts?
In front of them?!
It's a dreadful thing to do! I don't understand! Why must father, tear up
the advertisement, his children have made;
and throw it in the fireplace!? Why won't he mend their kite?
Why have yöu made him so unspeakably, awful?
In glorious technicolor?
For all the world to see.
yöu claim to make them live why can't he?
They.. live well?
I can't bear it. Please don't
Please don't.
I'll feel like I let him down again.
Mrs Travers?
I don't suppose, yöu can give me any more
for the pain?
When will enough be enough, Travers?
I've brought yöu something father.
Be a darling Ginty, my old pal!
Come here.
I'm sick.
Help father out won't yöu?
yöu know, In my washroom
there's a bottle of medicine that father needs.
- Mother took it away. - Godammit!
I wrote a poem father.
It - it won first prize, at school.
Shall i read it to yöu, father?
Mrs?
I, uh, brought yöu a tea. - It's blasphemy to drink tea from a paper cup.
Everything okay, mrs?
Would yöu like me to drive yöu home?
All the way to England? Yes, please.
yöu got family, back there Mrs? - yöu're an impertinent man, yöu know?
yöu ask an awful lot of questions that have
absolutely, no relevance to yöu being able to carry out yöur duties.
I know! I do, do that. Yes! - And yöu have no barometer.
Let us say, that I haven't
family who'll notice, whether I was halfway across the world or sitting, in my living room.
Make a little furrow, there.
I gotta kid.
Well, most people do.
Jane
What a terrific kid.
Beautiful, little girl.
She's got a of problems though.
She's Handicapped, yöu know?
She's in a wheelchair.
See? That's why I concern myself with the weather so much.
Sunny day, she can sit out in the garden.
Rainy day, I have to leave her cooped up inside.
Worry about the future,
but, yöu can't do that.
Only today.
Hmmm. - Yeah.
Now look.
It's a band stand. - Ahh!
A river! - Lake.
Hey, Hey..Hey! I sure would like to take her there!
Wouldn't that be nice?
I know yöu gave it to him.
Take care of yöur sisters.
I know yöu love yöur father more.
But, one day..
yöu will understand.
Mother!
Mother?
Mother!
Mother?
It's time to go home.
I'm sorry.
Oh, my God!
I'm sorry.
Mrs Travers! Yes?
Pam! Walt.
Mr Disney.
I'm Callin?to..uh check up on yöu.
I understand, things didn't go so well today.
Something about Mr. Banks?
They went as well as they've gone every other day;
that I've been here. I don't recall special phone calls from yöu on any of those other evenings.
Pam, What's this all about?
Really?
I'm wondering what I have to do to make yöu happy.
- Ha! - And, yöu've been wondering that too, Aren't yöu?
yöu know,
yöu've never been to Disneyland!
That's the happiest place on Earth!
Tommie!
Cancel my morning tomorrow. I'm taking a ride with my favorite author!
No, no no, please, Mr. Disney.
I cannot tell yöu how uninterested,
no, positively sickened, I am.. at the thought of visiting yöur...
yöur dollar printing machine!
For crying out loud. When does anybody get to go to Disneyland, with Walt Disney himself?!
Disappointments are to the soul, what the thunderstorm is to the air.
Hello?
He hung up!
Gangs, We gotta fix this.
Father, winds from the east.
The Aunt.
Now,
I've brought every new fangled treatment available in Sydney.
Close yöur mouth please Biddy, we are not a codfish.
Now, I see a multitude of jobs that need to be done!
They've been so worried I've - Do stop babbling nonsense!
I'm here now and I shall fix everything.
I thought I had made it quite clear, that yöu two were to begin helping.
Hmm?
Spit spot!
Where are we? This isn't the way.
Change of venue this morning, apparently.
Ugh.
Wow!
There he is! Living, breathing.
Oh boy!
Oh, I can get that.
Mrs.Travers, Welcome to the Magic Kingdom!
Is it all like this?
Yup! Isn't it wonderful?
Do yöu always get everything yöu want, Walter?
Pretty much!
With the exception of the rights to my books of course!
Well, War ain't over yet Pam!
War ain't over yet.
I love yöu so much! Can I?
Sure, sure..there yöu go.
Pre-signed?
Hey, yöu should get hers too. This woman's a bona fide genius!
Tour starts this way, Pam!
Hot dog!
Whoa, move along, move along.
Each section of the park, has a high point. So, yöu can get yöur benefits.
In Adventureland there is a tree
This is a fun fact. A titbit.
- Tidbit.
It got three million leaves,
four million flowers.
Gosh. - And they said only God could make a tree!
Where did she come from?
- Who?
Oh, I think yöu know who.
She flew in through the window, one day.
Through the window huh?
It's just that easy, isn't it Mrs Travers?
yöu see those spirals?
Plated with 24 carat gold.
Now, I know yöu don't wanna be here so I'm gonna take yöu to one ride
My favourite amusement, and then.. I'll set yöu free.
Mrs Travers, I would be honoured if yöu would take a ride on Jingles, here.
She's Mrs Disney's favourite horse.
I said what?
No, thank yöu. I'm happy to watch.
Now, there's no greater joy, than that seen through the eyes of a child.
There's a child in us all. - Maybe in yöu Mister Disney,
but certainly not in me.
Get on the horse Pamela!
Now, When we first met, yöu said to me they're family.?
Mary Poppins, the Banks's, they're family.
The boys have had an idea for yöur Mister Banks.
I think it'll make yöu happy. - yöu brought me all the way out here, to tell me that?
Oh, no..No. I brought yöu all the way out here for monetary gain.
Had a wager with the boys,
that I couldn't get yöu on a ride. I just won 20 bucks.
Yah!
All the garments are half done.
Good morning, Mrs Travers!
What horrors have yöu in store for my beautiful characters today?
yöu, sit here.
What're yöu upto?
We were thinking about..
what yöu said,
and..yöu are right.
Mr Banks isn't cruel. He isn't.
However did yöu manage it?
So, we've got a new ending for the film.
Oh god, I hope yöu like it.
Michael says, he mended it! It's wonderful!?
He mended the kite?
With...
tuppence for paper and strings
yöu can have yöur own set of wings.
With yöur feet on the ground yöu're a bird in flight!
with yöur fist holding tight, To the string of yöur kite .
Oh oh oh oh! Let's go fly a kite.
Up to the highest height, Let's go fly a kite.
and send it, soaring
Up through the atmosphere.
Up where the air is clear.
Oh, let's go fly a kite.
And then, Mrs Banks runs to her house.
She gets the suffragettes ribbon.
And says, “A proper kite needs a proper tail don't yöu think?!?/i>
Oh, oh oh! Let's go fly a kite.
Up to the highest height,
Let's go fly a kite...
and send it soaring,
Up through the atmosphere.
Up where the air is clear.
Oh, let's go fly a kite!
When yöu send it flying up there; All at once yöu're lighter than air
yöu can dance on the breeze over houses and trees with yöur fist holding tight,
To the string of yöur kite.
Mr Disney! Walt!
I'm sorry to interrupt. It's just she's
She's dancing!
Mrs Travers. She's dancing with Don!
Oh, Oh Oh Oh! Let's go fly a kite.
Up to the highest height.
Let's go fly a kite and send it soaring..
Let us go..and fly a..
Up through the atmosphere.
Up where the air is clear.
Oh, let's go fly a kite!
Oh! He fixes the kite! Oh, I love it!
Though proper English would be -let us go and fly a kite.?
But, I might be willing to overlook that.
Alright!
Very good!
Father?
yöu're quite right? yöu know, It is beautiful. Exquisite.
It's always new.
So, Jolly Holiday's in? - By all means.
Wonderful! - I do have a question about it actually.
How in the world does Mister Disney propose to train penguins to dance?
I've heard about his implausibly leaved trees.
So, I assume he does have some insane penguin wrangling scheme but it does seem rather far fetched.
Can yöu train a penguin to dance?
No.
I don't think yöu can train - They're animated.
They are what? - Cartoons.
What?
Are we getting real penguins?
Good afternoon Mrs Travers!
I'm here to see Mister Disney.
Mrs Travers!
I'm terribly, sorry..Walt.
It's Alright Tommie, just close the door.
Never let anybody see me smoking. I'll hate to encourage bad habits.
Please, sit down. - I shall not sit in the seat of a trickster! A fraudster! A sneak!
Pamela - MRS TRAVERS. PLEASE!
Mrs Travers, what hasyöu so upset now?
Penguins!
Penguins have very much upset me, Mister Disney!
Animated, dancing penguins!
Now, yöu have seduced me with the music Mr Disney, yes yöu have. Those Sherman boys have quite turned my head;
but I shall not be moved on the matter of cartoons, Sir.
Not.. one inch!
It's a sequence
yöu promised me. yöu promised me that this film would not be an animation!
And it isn't!
So, they're real penguins?
No, they're animated.
But, the actors yöu see...
the actor is very very much real.
yöu foolish old woman.
Pamela! Pam!
Dolly, would yöu be so kind to ring my driver, he can come collect me?
Yes, Ma'm. -Thank yöu.
Here we are, Mrs. - Thank yöu.
It's been a pleasure driving yöu Mrs.
No one likes a fibber. - NO..no. No.
I really have enjoyed it.
Didn't know who yöu were at first and then guess what?
yöu found out? - I was telling my daughter all about my day..
and how I was driving this nice writer lady, Mrs Travers for Mr Disney.
and uh
And
And, she made me go to her bedroom and bring her this!
Can't stop reading it. yöu know..
I'm very slow mind yöu.
Would yöu like me to sign it?
Would yöu?!
I'll be honoured.
To..
Jane.
and her dearest father
I've just this instant realized I don't know yöur name.
Ralph.
Pamela.
yöu're the only American I have ever liked, Ralph.
May I ask why?
No. Now,
take this
Albert Einstein,
Van Gogh, Roosevelt,
Frida Kehlo.. - Kahlo.
What is this? - They all had difficulties.
Jane, can do anything, that anyone else can do.
Do yöu understand?
Oh.
I almost forgot, turn it aroud.
Walt Disney!
Hyperactive behavior and deficiencies in concentration. It explains everything!
Thank yöu, Mrs.
She has come and gone, huh?
- Yeah, Flight left 10 minutes ago.
Beverly Hotel, front lemousine..
First class plane ticket back to England,
Wait, Goff? Who's Helen Goff?
That's her. That's her real name.
She acts so, hoity toity British and she's really an Aussie.
Then, who's Travers?
I've been talking to the wrong person.
He is gone.
No, no..no yöu mustn't.
Let her go, Margaret.
I dropped the pears.
I'm sorry, daddy.
Helen, dear girl...
yöu promised, yöu would fix everything.
Hello, house.
Oh, dear god!
It was one heck of a job getting a seat..
on the very next flight, let me tell yöu.
Mrs.Travers..
I could sure use, a nice pot of English tea, about now.
Here we are.
Allow me.
The milk goes in first. Milk.
I remember.
And, a spoonful of sugar?
I think, I'll have whiskey.
Oh well, when in Rome!
yöu've come to change my mind. Haven't yöu?
To beat me into submission.
No, no. I've come because, yöu misjudge me.
Yeah.
How do I misjudge yöu?
yöu look at me and yöu see some kind of Hollywood King Midas.
yöu think, I've built an empire and that I want to use yöur Mary Poppins as just another brick in my kingdom.
- And don't yöu?
If that was all it was,
would I have pursued an cranky, stubborn dame like yöu for twenty years?
I would have saved myself an ulcer!
No, yöu expected me to disappoint yöu and so, yöu made sure I did.
Well, I think life disappoints yöu, Mrs Travers.
I think it's done that a lot. And i think, Mary Poppins is the only person in yöur life who hasn't.
- Mary Poppins, isn't real. - That's not true.
Oh, no. She's real as can be to my daughter's
and to thousands of other children adults too.
Been there as a nighttime comfort to a heck of a lot of people.
Well, Where is she when I need her?
Hm? I open the door to Mary Poppins and who should be standing there..
...but Walt Disney!
Mrs Travers, I am so sorry.
I hoped
this would be a magical experience for yöu, for all of us. But I let yöu down
and in doing so, I've broken a twenty year old promise I made to my daughters.
I've been wracking my brains, trying to figure out why this has been so hard for yöu and I
Well...
yöu see, I have my own Mr Banks.
Mine had a moustache.
So, not true that Disney created man in his own image?
But it is true that yöu created yöurself in someone else's, yes?
Ever been to Kansas City, Mrs Travers? Do yöu know Missouri at all?
I can't say I do. - Well, It's mighty cold there in the winters. Bitter cold.
My dad, Elias Disney, he owned a newspaper delivery route there. Thousand papers. Twice daily.
The morning and an evening edition.
Dad, he was a tough businessman. He was a...
..save-a-penny anywhere yöu can type of fella;
So, he wouldn't employ any delivery boys, no, no..no. he just used me and
my big brother Roy.
I was uh, I was eight back then. Just eight years old.
Like I said, those winters were harsh..
and old Elias didn't believe in new shoes until, the old ones were worn right through.
Honestly, Mrs Travers, the snow drift sometimes they were up over my head!
We'd push through it like wading through molasses.
And the cold and the wet would be seeping through the shoes.
Skin peeling from our faces.
sometimes, I'll find myself sunk down in the snow,
Just waking up, cuz I must've passed out or something, I dunno.
Then, it's time for school, i was too cold too wet,
to figure out an equations and things.
Then, it was right back out into the snow again to get home just before dark.
My mother would feed us dinner..
..and then, it was time to go right back out again, for the evening edition.
yöu best be quick there Walt,
get those newspapers up on that porch, and under that store and doors..
or poppa's gonna loose his temper again and show yöu the buckle under his belt.
Now, I don't tell yöu, all this to make yöu sad Mrs Travers,
I don't. I love my life.
I think it's a miracle. And I loved my dad.
He was a wonderful man.
But, rare is the day..
where I don't think of that little boy delivering newspapers in the snow.
And old Elias Disney with his strap and fist.. and I'm just so tired
Mrs. Travers.
I'm tired of remembering it, that way.
Aren't yöu tired too, Mrs Travers?
We all have our tales but don't yöu want to finish the story?
Let it all go and have a life that isn't dictated by a past?
It's not the children she comes to save.
It's their father.
It's yöur father
Travers Goff.
- I don't know what yöu think yöu know about me, Walter.
yöu must've loved and admired him a lot to take his name.
It's all about him, isn't it?
All of it. Everything.
Forgiveness, Mrs.Travers. It's what I learned from yöur books.
- I don't need to forgive my father. He was a wonderful man.
No,
yöu need to forgive Helen Goff.
Life is a harsh sentence to lay down for yöurself.
Give her to me, Mrs Travers.
Trust me, with yöur precious Mary Poppins.
I won't disappoint yöu.
I swear, that every time a person walks into a movie house.
- from Leicester to Kansas City..
they will see, George Banks being saved.
They will love him and his kids,
they will weep for his cares,
They will wring their hands, when he loses his job.
And when he flies that kite,
oh Mrs Travers! They will rejoice,
they will sing.
In movie houses all over the world,
in the eyes and the hearts of my kids, and other kids and their mothers and fathers for generations to come,
George Banks, will be honoured.
George Banks will be redeemed.
George Banks and all he stands for will be saved.
Maybe, not in life, but in imagination.
Because, that's what we storytellers do.
We restore order with imagination.
We instill hope, again and again and again.
Trust me, Mrs Travers. Let me prove it to yöu.
I give yöu my word.
Enough.
Make those two changes, I'm sure everything will be just fine.
Walt, could i get yöur approval on that please.
What is it? - Invitation list for the premiere.
Is this everyone?
It's not everyone.
There'll be a premiere in London, that'll be more convenient for her.
Tommie, this wasn't an easy decision for me. But, yöu know what she is like.
We got press interviews, cameras I need to protect the picture.
- Okay.
Just answer the door!
I am very pleased to hear that Pamela.
I should think, yöu'll have a draft very soon.
Polly! Where's that tea? It's coming along marvelously!
Aren't yöu going to pour it, for us?
yöu're perfectly capable of pouring it yöurself.
She's quite the worst maid I've ever had!
So, why do yöu keep her? - I don't know, she reminds me of me.
Do yöu have a title? - Mary Poppins in the Kitchen.
Wonderful.
Should we start talking about, the film rights?
NEVER again. - Okay.
Now, tell me, Have yöu got yöur tiara for the premiere?
Oh, I'm not going to that.
Why not?
Hollywood premieres are not for old trout like me.
Anyway, it's not convenient.
He hasn't invited yöu, has he?
Mary Poppins wouldn't stand for that!
Can I help yöu? - I'm perfectly capable, thank yöu.
As i recall.
Sweet of yöu.
Walt? - Hello Dolly!
Walt? - Tommie,
yöu're gonna have to move that meeting with G.E.
What?
Mrs. Travers! - Me again!
How wonderful to see yöu.
I'm here for my premiere.
Great!
I didn't receive my invitation, but I just assumed
the American postal service had fallen down on the job, as per usual.
I'll have a replacement, sent to yöur hotel right away.
yöu are very kind, Mr Disney. I knew yöu wouldn't have forgotten me.
Pam, how could I forget yöu?
Good evening.
Hello, could yöu please order me a cab?
Absolutely.
Ralph!
I had a feeling, a certain friend of mine might be needing me tonight.
Wow!
yöu look like a million bucks!
Thank yöu.
Let's get yöu to that ball, huh? - Thank yöu, Ralph, thank yöu.
This is yöur night.
None of this would be possible without yöu.
Sometimes, the person we love. Through no fault of his own,
can't see past the end of his nose.
What's the end of his nose.
Now, yöur dad is a fine gentleman. And he loves yöu.
I don't think so. yöu should've seen the look on his face.
It doesn't look like his own.
Well, now that don't seem likely, does it?
yöu know, i met yöur father..
There he is in that cold, heartless bank day after day,
hemmed in by mounds of cold, heartless money.
I don't want to see any living thing caged up.
Father in a cage?
They makes cages in all sizes and shapes, yöu know.
Bank-shaped some of 'em, carpets and all.
Mary Poppins, yöu won't ever leave us will yöu?
Whatever would we do without yöu?
- I shall stay until, the wind changes.
It's all right.
It's all right, Mrs Travers. Mr Banks is going to be all right. I promise.
No, no. It's just that
I can't, I can't abide cartoons!
Ohhh! Let's go fly a kite.
Up to the highest height.
Let's go fly a kite and send it soaring,
Up through the atmosphere..
Up where the air is clear...
Don't leave me.
Never.
I promise. I will never lose yöu.
Winds in the East Mist coming in
Like something is brewing,
about to begin
Can't put me finger, on what lies in store
But I feel what's to happen,
all happened before
