This is one of my favorite movies. I watched it yet again the other night. It is so moving. I thought it was a lighthearted look at Disney by the ads. When I saw it I was in tears. It is sad and beautiful. It’s not about Disney or making Mary Poppins. That’s just the setting. If you haven’t seen it, watch it. Thompson is fantastic playing PL Travers as still basically an injured child. Fantastic performance

I LOVED this film. Emma Thompson was marvellous. I watched it on a long flight to Hong Kong and literally wept during the "Kite" scene. So nostalgic too because Mary Poppins was the first film I was ever taken to see at the Monaco in Rhiwbina when I was about 4 years old!

Yeah, have to admit tears were forming my eyes at the end of the movie. I’m a adult ,52, but I can say Mary Poppins is my all time favorite Disney movie since I was a boy. So when this came out, I was ecstatic. Even accidentally saw some of the making(was attending something else, and walked by the “movie premier scene “ and saw Hanks etc.

Thank God that Emma Thompson is nothing like P.L.Travers. She actually has a sense of humor which is needed to survive in Hollywood.

I love her laugh! Shes like my favorite person ever

I love and respect her so much because she takes her art and craftmanship very seriously but does not take herself too seriously. That's high wisdom.

I didn't realize how likable she is in real life! I guess I've seen several characters who are grumpy and she did such a good job with them, I just assumed she was like that!

Emma's laugh at the the beginning 😂😂😂

Superb movie in every way!

And the one of the worst snubs in Oscar history

What a wonderful actress and what a wonderful movie

Just enjoyed Emma Thompson watching Savings Mr.Banks on my flight from Paris to Yerevan! Do love her! Amazing woman and actress!

She didn't say "the best " but "one of the best" . That's very different and not as offensive to her other directors !

She deserved the Oscar for this film.

AMAZING movie. Incredible acting, script, and storyline. Tom Hanks was amazing as always, too.

"Well.... UNmake it up" LMAO

What a fun person Emma Thompson is! Brilliant actress too. One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. (Just finished watching it on Netflix.)

Emma, you're so beautiful... wish I could look as refreshing as you at that age. Wonderful portrayal you did as PL Travers!

I just love how she's so jazzed about the penguins...It's the simple things!!

She's so funny brilliant

Nanny McPhee is also the opposition to Mary Poppins in the sense of the people that want her but I will say that there is a connection of how both don't want to say direct goodbyes. With Mary, the children want her and the parents are the ones who end up learning the majority of the lessons. With McPhee, the parents are at wit's end and don't know where to turn, whether due to loss or misdirection. The kids learn the basics and this displays magic by McPhee's appearance becoming more appealing. This then teaches the children the main lessons of all - be kind and don't judge by appearances. It also proves to the adults that you can do it on your own, just with a clear direction. Though I believe both share this same sentiment of Nanny McPhee's. "When you want me, but no longer need me, then I have to go."

One of her lesser known, and remarkable, roles. I love this movie.

I've met Emma, on a film shoot in Glasgow Scotland. So down to earth.lovely woman.nanny mcphee?

From this, to Nanny McPhee, Sybil Treelawney, and then the Baroness… this woman had the characters down to a tee

emma tompson NAILED IT. her performance was so...

Emma Thompson...she is just brilliant! She is just muu-waahh perfect.

She is fabulous. Actors really acquire more talent as time progresses.

"That smells like perm juice!" OMG hahahaha!

Thomas Newman's beautiful score is like a character itself in this wonderful film.

She is beautiful.

I loved this movie that moved me so much!I had already seen and enjoyed very Howards End, Nanny McPhee and another of her works, now with this film she overcame! I didn't know why Mary Poppings thrilled me so much especially that part where Julie Andrews sings " Feed the birds", I think this should have won the Oscar for best actress! Enma Thompson was so great and superb on this caracter!She played so well that woman Ms. PJ Travers that thrilled me with her problems in childhood, why it was so difficult to handle her like a real Greta Garbo who put the Disney studios on the knees, she had fear that they would distort story of the book that was in the background a story of her own life,the love that she had in her father.Tom hanks was also great as Walt Disney although I think Disney was a little more cheerful,i do not think he was a misogynistic as the infamous Meryl Streep of the old spoiled Hollywood said ,she kissing until woman in the mouth, this shameless!

Thank you. That speech was based on lies and Meryl didn't do her research. She's literally a puppet. So many came to disneys defence. He did hire women. But as the years went by he allowed them to work longer and in different positions. The reason why he couldn't do so at first was because they would not be educated by their families who, before the war, deemed them worthless. They would also marry or have a father over them who wouldn't allow long hours if any work at all. They would also have children and devote their lives to them. Not like now. And her whole thing about an employee saying Walt didn't trust women was a section of a book. It was about him looking at his daughters and wife eyeing a cat and him telling someone a joke about how he doesn't trust cats or women anymore. Meryl is a puppet. She stole Emma's thunder and that's why she didn't get her award.

Every movie she acts in she makes me cry, this movie, I was still crying the next day. I love her.

I would agree Emma, its one of your very best if not the best. PL Travers was a lost soul. The Book now and the movie makes more sense to me, I am 59, I was 9 that August of '64. I should make a point to see more of your work than I have.one of my failings.

I love her!! I love the movie a lot that I've watched it a couple of times.

This is one of my favorite movies

Such nice movie..the actress enlivened the whole imagery amazingly I wud love to watch that transformation of a little girl to such stern woman any no. Of times..it's so realistic great job of a protagonist!

Emma is so pretty!

Describing P.L. Travers as everyone has, it seems rather ironic that she would even create a "Mary Poppins" type of character. It's quite obvious a character for children. Did P.L. Travers write a book on Mary Poppins? I'd love to read it!

Emma Thompson was fantastic as PL Travers. However, I knew so little about Mary Poppins before I saw this movie that I thought she was playing Julie Andrews. In addition, I think it's rather ironic that she was so great as Mrs. Travers when she's such an elegant, classy-looking woman and Pamela Travers the person looked more (and apparently acted) like Mama Fratelli.

SHe was fantastic in this role

They may have an opening at The View! Send them your resume.

Nah her best role is Beatrice in Much Ado About Nothing. ❤️

"My hair smells like chlorine. And sweat." Yummy mummy!

She didn't hate Americans and America. She emigrated there in '39 with her adopted baby and lived in NYC and New Mexico until well after the war.

Her inlaws live near me and see her around. Shops in Poundland! You read it here!

I think her best role was ( forgive the spelling) but it was Tottie Fruite. It also stared Robbie Coltraine.

Beautiful woman.

With her hairstyle, Emma looks a like Nanny McPhee!

Since time has passed & after having played the Baroness, would she still say Mrs. Travers was her best role?

The presenter keeps talking over her, so unprofessional. The guy should be sacked!

Is this the story of Woody’s journey to Treasure Planet?

Me.

Peninugan vs duck 🙄🙄

Music female teacher ya paino teacher 🙄🙄

Dance role cartoon🙄🙄

Why is she talking smack about Pamela Travers? Did she ever meet Pamela Travers? Not good to talk ill of the dead, because they cannot defend themselves.

I prefer Emma not as a blonde.

That's one of the contradictions in P.L Travers character that Emma Thompson referred to, I guess.

She’s a British national treasure. Beautiful, intelligent, talented. I love her

It's quite sad, I was sure for the longest time Meryl Streep was playing P.L. Travers

Gorgeous actor. The fake excitement over the fkn penguins is just for US-American viewers.

Emma Thompson, how about you actually respect Americans by pronouncing Los Angeles correctly. You're fully capable.

I love this movie
