Saved


Hollywood Giant Walt Disney's 20-year chase to obtain the film rights to P.L. Travers' Mary Poppins books finally sees its end; meanwhile, the author finds herself having to confront her own childhood. If you're a girl and you adore your father, make sure you have a box of tissues with you when you watch this movie. I didn't have one handy, so I had to use the hem of my shirt.

There isn't much to be said about Tom Hanks's and Emma Thompson's acting; only that they were perfect. And damn that Colin Farrell guy for making me cry.


"You think Mary Poppins has come to save the children? Oh, dear."
