No one looks at Mary Poppins and sees blackface, it looks like smudges of soot from sweeping a chimney, exactly what it is supposed to look like. Also, Elsa Lanchester was a great comedian after she did the bride of Frankenstein. She’s on a classic episode of I Love Lucy as Lucy and Ethel hitchhike towards Florida. And she creates great humor as the personal nurse in the mid-50s Agatha Christie mystery Witness for the Prosecution, a top 20 movie of mine.
OK that one about 'racial' overtones to their faces darkened with soot (after being in a chimney!) is just about the stupidest thing I've ever heard; I rolled my eyes so hard it made my head hurt.
Bride of Frankenstein was released in 1935 - Mary Poppins in 1964. That's a 29 year gap, and Elsa Lanchester appeared in dozens of films during that time. Saying she was "fresh off" her performance in "Bride" is at best a bit of a stretch.
Most of my childhood friends, at the time, loved the song: ''A Spoon Full of Sugar''....NOT so, for me. I, dearly loved, the Chimney Song, the best of all and I love the way Van Dyke did his cute dance!!!!!
@@FactsVerse I was just a little kid, when I saw: ''The Sound of Music''....I would LOVE IT if you would do, something, on this movie. That would be GREAT! Thank you!
MP was my daughter's go-to in her first few years of school whenever she was sick. We would wrap her up on the couch and VCR MP all day long. So I would remark- "I saw it when it first came out, and didn't think much of it. But I find that after you've seen it two or three hundred times you really start to appreciate it."
The idea that Dick Van Dyke's execrable cockney accent was in any way due to Walt Disney failing to cast any British actors is utter nonsense. Of the adult cast alone, Julie Andrews, David Tomlinson, Glynis Johns, Arthur Treacher (the constable), Hermione Baddeley (the maid), Elsa Lanchester (Katie Nanna), Arthur Malet (Mr Dawes, Jr) and Reginald Owen (Admiral Boom) were all English. I don't know why no one pointed out how bad Dick Van Dyke's cockney accent was, but it certainly wasn't due to cultural ignorance on the part of the cast. Julie Andrews in particular had to effect a cockney accent herself when she played Eliza Doolittle in My Fair Lady and so must have realised just how bad Dick Van Dyke's attempt was. I can only guess that because she was so early in her movie career she didn't feel she had the clout to insist that a dialect coach be brought in.

I remember the movie Mary Poppins Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke favorite thing is when they jumped into the painting with the kids the cartoon animation
I know Mary Poppins by book , it’s one of my favorite stories ever . When Mary Poppins went on broadway on my birthday there’s a deleted scene they’ve haven’t put there , it was the I love to laugh scene . I imagined what would’ve happened if I saved the show and added that deleted scene . What would they’re reaction might be ?
I heard that the part of Burt was meant to be played by Tommy Steel, but because he was under contract for another film, they were unable to cast him........
"Mary Poppins is a Junkie." I want that bumper sticker. FYI, Those of us who have seen "Saving Mr. Banks" are familiar with the P.L. Travers'' disputes, including her ideas about the casting choices. Yes, Lawrence Olivier and Richard Burton were good actors, but are either of them believable as Burt the Chimney Sweeper? Better yet, can you imagine either of them playing character such as Bluto Blutarsky, Jeff Spicoli, or Axel Foley?
I enjoy your daily videos. However, you forgot to mention that actress Glynnis Johns who played Winifred banks has just passed away at age 100 However, you forgot to mention that actress Glynis Johns who played Winifred banks has just passed away at age 100.😢
Yes that is a fact, Glynis Johns in another film demonstrated her range impeccably. The production titled: The Cabinet of Caligari is a psycothriller with bountiful twists and turns. The movie itself was a box office struggler and is often difficult to locate for viewing and or purchase, nevertheless it is well worth the effort. Directed by Roger Kay and it does him well, I found the lighting, cinematography, casting and more to be top drawer. I will not dwell on the story line and especially its ending but mention that John's performance is a steeplechase departure from her other many and varied castings. Among other cast members is Constance Ford a lesser know actress but one who's skill and accumen lend a pointed direction to this movie. I have viewed the film hundreds of times and always find something new. I believe if you have a sense of film adventure you will be intrigued by this piece. Well done Glynis and rest in peace!
nothing here is worthy of a scandal ! Dick's alcoholism has been well known for decades so nothing there! kids robbed of their childhood ..........nothing new. The chimney soot , at 61 years old I never once thought about madcap covered actors playing another race of human color. Anyone stating that would be a person of question ! However the Bride of Frankenstein actress I didn't notice so that was great trivia ! jt
I liked Julie Andrews in thoroughly modern millie, sound of music, the princess diaries film and voicing Princess Fiona's mum in Shrek 2, 3 and possibly 4
In 1900, an American cartoonist for the New York Evening World by the name of J. Stuart Blackton released what is considered the first ever live action and animation film, The Enchanted Drawing

Contrary to popular belief Karen Dotrice did carry on acting for quite a few more years. In fact she played an extra in Mary Poppins Returns.

Me too! Thank you for letting me feel sane! 👍
One of the best movies ever made! It was so popular that it actually became a fad when it came out. It was rereleased into theaters in 1973.

I was about to say the same thing but you beat me to it.
@@TheLorrephilei had that in mind as well she was 29 in mary poppins
Elsa Lanchester fresh off her "Bride of Frankenstein" role? 30 years is a long time fresh.
RIP Glynis Johns, who just passed away at 100 years old.
She was awesome😢
This and Sound of Music are still the best family movies ever made imho.

Sadly this week the actress who played Mrs Banks Glynis Johns, passed away. 😢

Dick Van Dyke's fake Cockney accent was so bad that audiences could actually understand him.
The harshest criticism I heard was people pointing out that the accent comes and goes during the film.
Flawless cockney accent! Are you aving a larf😂

If Julie Andrews had originally been chosen for to be in My Fair Lady. She probably would not have gotten the opportunity to star in Mary Poppins.

Julie broke her “Popins” persona with her nude scene in SOB.
Her striptease in Darling Lili was earlier.

Ha! Thoroughly Modern Millie! Completely forgot about that one.
A movie should be made about the scandal “ Behind the Scenes” of Mary Poppins
Animated characters have been integrated with human actors before Mary Poppins

Us too! We love Mary Poppins ❤
I loved Marry Popins! Unfortunately, you can’t beat Disney !
@@adrianjohnstone5145 who is we? You and me? 😆 beating Disney is like trying to stop a violent mob with a pea shooter. 😆
Mary Popplns was nominated for Best Picture 1964, though it didn’t win.
My favourite part of the movie Mary Poppins is when the screen went black
Julie Andrews as Mary Poppins is a classic. The remake pales by comparison.
You mean Mary Poppins Returns?
That’s a sequel not a remake
@@seanhorace925 : Correct.
Sure passed by without much of a ripple, didn't it? Sort of like that other sequel, "Titanic 2: It Sinks Again".
This is just some weird AI generated production. No scandals whatsoever! Not worth watching.
It was a very well done movie! Definitely worth the watch
@@rwestywoel67He was referring to the video, not the movie.
I agree. Why were there pics from MP2 included?
My favorite song from Mary popins bowl of sugar medicine goes down my name is Heather ha youtube video
Bert & his chimney sweep friends were as fake as the happy slaves in Song of the South
Mary Poppins once ate at Taco Bell and became Mary Poopins☢
