Saving Mr. Banks is a film produced by Walt Disney Pictures and distributed in Italian cinemas from February 20.
The movie is about the true story of how Walt Disney in 1961 acquired the rights to Mary Poppins novel, courting the Australian writer Pamela Lyndon Travers for 14 years, reluctant to sell her favourite character for fear that she would be distorted and become too frivolous.
We have seen the movie and here is our impression.

• Trama / Plot

Pamela Lyndon Travers sta attraversando un brutto periodo economico e dopo 14 anni di rifuti, decide di andare da Londra a Hollywood per valutare se cedere i diritti della sua amata Mary Poppins per la trasposizione cinematografica prodotta da Walt Disney.
Si trova così a lavorare gomito a gomito con gli sceneggiatori e i compositori della colonna sonora del film, criticando duramente il copione e rendendo la vita dura ai collaboratori di Walt Disney.
Walt Disney capirà che l’unico modo per far firmare la cessione dei diritti alla signora Travers, sarà quello di comprendere le sue paure e rassicurarla in un viaggio che porterà il pubblico alla scoperta dell’infanzia della scrittrice e del significato profondo che il romanzo ha per lei.

Pamela Lyndon Travers is going through a financial issue and she decides to go from London to Hollywood to negotiate if granting the rights of her beloved Mary Poppins for the film adaptation produced by Walt Disney.
So she begins to work closely with the scriptwriters and soundtrack composers of the film, harshly criticizing the script and making Walt Disney’s employees life hard.
Walt Disney will realize that the only way to make Mrs. Travers sign over the film rights, will be to understand her fears and to reassure her, a travel that will take audience to discover the writer’s childhood and the deep meaning that the novel has to her.

• Commento / Review

Preparate i fazzoletti, eyeliner e mascara waterproof perché ne avrete bisogno: in Saving Mr. Banks la freschezza e la simpatia tipiche dei film di Walt Disney incontrano momenti molto emozionanti, al limite del dramma, stemperati dalla tensione comica che si crea nel rapporto tra Pamela Lyndon Travers e Walt Disney.
Nel film rimarrete anche affascinati dalle scene in cui è possibile vedere il “making of” di Mary Poppins e invidierete tantissimo Pamela Lyndon Travers quando avrà l’opportunità di visitare il parco di divertimenti più famoso al mondo con il suo creatore, Walt Disney.
Saving Mr. Banks ci è piaciuto moltissimo e ci ha lasciato nel cuore un carico di emozioni molto intense.

Get your handkerchiefs ready, use waterproof eyeliner and mascara: in Saving Mr. Banks the freshness and the fun typical of Walt Disney films meet very emotional and dramatic moments, dulled by the comic tension between Pamela Lyndon Travers and Walt Disney.
In the film you will also be fascinated by the scenes where you can see the “making of” Mary Poppins and you will envy Pamela Lyndon Travers when she has the opportunity to visit the most famous amusement park in the world with its creator, Walt Disney.
We love Saving Mr. Banks and it has brought strong emotions to our heart.
