We watched a lot of Mary Poppins when we were younger, so when I heard about Saving Mr. Banks, I was immediately drawn to it -- and also desperately hoped it would live up to its predecessor's strong reputation.
S and I found Saving Mr. Banks at the library. I was wary when I started it, worried that it wouldn't be everything that I hoped. On top of that, of course I had high hopes for Emma Thompson and Tom Hanks -- individually and collectively.
Saving Mr. Banks wasn't exactly what I expected, but it certainly lived up to my expectations. It was a lovely homage to a lovely piece of my childhood.
Bottom line: not the least bit worrying, in the end.
Love your movie reviews! Thank you so much.
