    So underrated. Criminally so.
    This film needs more recognition. My favorite live-action Disney film and in my top 10 favorite films.
    Why did this never come off the ground?

      +kurvos it definitely did (and lets be honest, its being told from the disney company's point of view, what do you expect), but it definitely shows him being a dick about it. The request for no animation, the whole mustache thing, no silly musical numbers, and it all happened right in front of the author.
      I can't confirm personally, but I think I read somewhere that she liked one or two songs from the movie, so it's not like she 100% was appalled by it all, but she definitely did not like what happened, and it doesn't show that as well as it could have...
      But even with that all, my favorite scene was on the red carpet, when everyone was ignoring her mickey mouse came out and offered his arm to walk with her to her seat. To me it emphasized the part that doug mentioned, where disney said mickey felt like family to him, and as cheesey as the scene looked I still love it.

      +IMVADER2 while she never liked Fly a Kite like the movie represents, she did somewhat, in her own way, enjoy Feed the Birds and its apparently what won her over (in some articles I have read)
      The movie, while Disney-fies alot of facts, a lot they keep authentic or as authentic as a company making a film about screwing an author over. Was it 100 % accurate, no. But for Disney, it was a pretty damn good film and the best I could see them doing it on the story.

    One line of the movie that always stuck out to me was when Travers says “I don’t want Mary to be another one of your silly cartoons.”
    And then the look Disney gives is like “Wow. My entire life’s work has just been dismantled in one sentence.”

      +kurvos I know that Disney may not be the best person, but you have to understand that people are products of their time. Disney only thought that way because it was a common way of thinking. Does that mean it was good? That he's off the hook? No, but we must take this into consideration. Today common thoughts and ideals are all for egalitarianism, those past thoughts and ideals contrast modern ones. Though we must not close our minds and shun and forget these people in the past. They've done great things, we can't just let the bad things they've thought or done define who they are.

    • @dpm12
      @dpm12 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      @kurvos, and this somehow overrides all the good things he did in terms of changing the film industry and animation? And there's actually no real hardcore evidence he was anti-Semitic, but even if he was, so what? They were personal thoughts, it's not like he ever acted out on it.

      Alex I actually thought it was perfect. And what Doug said about him smoking and drinking and swearing I would believe it. Disney smoked like a chimney so I'm not surprised that it's what led to his death by lung cancer. But Tom Hanks plays the man like as if he was a relative of ours and I really enjoy that. I used to put Disney on a high pedestal but when I got older I realized that he wasn't a perfect person. He was just as flawed as any adult but it's why we respect him.

  • @getmario64

    "Saving Mr. Banks" is a great true story that talks about how to create a unique storytelling of making a good Disney film. This is actually well done film where people started to sit down and starting to talk about how to make "Mary Poppins" with Ms. Travers who wrote the her own book. It's more like a making a movie where "Ed Wood," "Hugo," and "Shadows of the Vampire" who shown their technique experiences to make a film and here it's a social group to develop a good story to start "Mary Poppins" right away. The performances did great including Emma Thompson did fantastic and this should be winner for her Oscar role which she got snubbed. It's nice to see Travers back story and it was pretty sad that her father loses his health and how is she is going be better if she makes the good right for Mr. Disney and it's pretty touchy. Overall, fantastic event and probably of one my favorite 2013 films.

    I view Saving Mr Banks and The Imitation Game in a similar vein: if you're looking for historical accuracy, you won't like them; but as a story of their own, they are interesting, entertaining, well acted and overall enjoyable. Ultimately, if I wanted a history lesson, I'd watch a documentary, but I go to the cinema to enjoy a film so I don't mind if some historical accuracy is sacrificed in order to deliver a more satisfying or compelling story.

    Saving Mr. Banks is one of my favorite films.
    As a writer myself I relate SO MUCH to this movie. When you write and create a world and people they become your children, your heart and soul. And to have someone possibly change and manipulate what you've made it's heartbreaking. I'm working so hard to have my work recognized because I want more than anything for film versions to be made, and everytime I think about it I'm both excited and yet so hesitant as to what could happen. I'd have to be Travers, overseeing so much to make sure I got what I ultimately wanted...I'd of course be nicer about it but I'd still have my say.

    If we're gonna go by historical accuracy, Travers had already handed the rights over to Disney the minute they met and everything she said on her tape recorder were nothing more than suggestions. She never had any actual control in the filmmaking process. So (spoilers) Disney meeting with her in England, yeah that didn't happen. Obviously that wasn't put in the movie because it wouldn't make a very interesting movie.

      In addition, most of their conversations were over the phone. She also utterly DESPISED "Let's Go Fly a Kite". And while Travers did hate the film at first, she eventually warmed up to it. Her final opinion on it was that, while she didn't consider it to be a good adaptation of her book, it was still a good movie in its own right.

    When I saw the ending scene of that movie, I knew that P.L Traverse was really upset with the results. It's even been hinted throughout the movie. For Disney it's a success story. For Traverse, it's a tragedy. There is a movie I really want you to review sometime if you have the chance. It's called Walt before Mickey. I saw that movie as a prequel to Saving Mr. Banks and it's totally worth a watch if you're a Disneyfanatic.

      GlassMufasa They made Ms. Travers out to be a bitch, but she kind of had every right to react the way she did to Disney's treatment of her material. Walt basically broke every single promise he made to her. He just had to make every book adaptation Disney did so totally different from the original that it became completely his own creation.

    I was seriously looking forward to seeing this in 2013, and was lucky enough to see it in the theater. I knew the true story about how much Travers despised Disney's version of her work, but if you can ignore that it's an amazing film on it's own, even though it's heavily fictionalized. Probably one of my all time favorites.

    This is a great ending, going over all critique to talk about what everyone gets out of Disney and how they are so familiar. Criticism is subjective, but Disney is for everyone. And they succeed.

    I personally hope they do more stories along this line.

    I agree with you. I don't know if the real P.L. Travers really lowered her guard enough to dance with the Sherman brothers to "Lets go Fly a Kite," but I think that moment is needed....you FINALLY see her relax a little bit but then right after that we get the scene where she learns Disney went behind her back on some of the decisions and the walls come right back up again. And I do think Emma Thompson and Tom Hanks did a brilliant job bringing these two master storytellers to life.

    When Walt tells the story about how he couldn't sell Mickey, I found it pretty funny, because He stole the character from another artist. Ub Iwerks was an artist and animator, who worked closely with Disney, on all of the early cartoons. Walt felt that a mouse might make a good cartoon character, so he asked Ub to come up with a design. Iwerks drew the first images of Mickey, and Disney was happy with the drawings. Iwerks then went on to animate the Steamboat Willy short, having drawn every frame of animation himself. The cartoon was a success, and more would soon follow, but Walt was getting all the credit, since their company was called Disney Studios, and he did little to inform people otherwise. Walt had the idea for a mouse cartoon, and voiced the early shorts, but it was Ub Iwerks that did the heavy lifting... He designed Mickey, he had the story concepts, and he did the animation, which gave the mouse a personality and a distinct style of movement. When Iwerks realized that Disney was getting all the recognition, while he was only given credit as an animator, not a creator, he asked Walt to fix the situation and set things straight. Walt refused, as he believed Mickey was his creation, and Iwerks was just hired gun, like every other cartoonist who worked at the studio. Ub Iwerks left the company, and started producing his own cartoons, but he could not compete with a powerhouse studio like Disney now was. Over the following years, Walt would call Mickey Mouse a joint venture, b
