Disney’s ‘Saving Mr. Banks’ movie trailer hits the web
The movie trailer is out for next year’s highly anticipated Disney movie “Savings Mr. Banks,” which tells the tale on how “Mary Poppins” was made.
Tom Hanks portrays Walt Disney, who promised his daughters he would make a movie of their favorite book, P.L. Travers’ “Mary Poppins.”
According to the official synopsis, when Disney comes up against the curmudgeonly, uncompromising writer P.L. Travers, played by Emma Thompson, who has absolutely no intention of letting her beloved magical nanny get mauled by the Hollywood machine. But, as the books stop selling and money grows short, Travers reluctantly agrees to go to Los Angeles to hear Disney’s plans for the adaptation.
“For those two short weeks in 1961, Walt Disney pulls out all the stops. Armed with imaginative storyboards and chirpy songs from the talented Sherman brothers, Walt launches an all-out onslaught on P.L. Travers, but the prickly author doesn’t budge. He soon begins to watch helplessly as Travers becomes increasingly immovable and the rights begin to move further away from his grasp.”
It is only when he reaches into his own childhood that Walt discovers the truth about the ghosts that haunt her, and together they set Mary Poppins free.
