Mary Poppins Returns @ Century Theaters @ The River in Rancho Mirage, California




Eric & me at Century
Theaters at The
River in Rancho
Mirage






We both have fond memories of our childhood viewings of the original Mary Poppins and of watching our children, Adam and Diane, fall in love with Mary Poppins, Uncle Albert, Penguin Waiters, and Bert the Chimney Sweep.

plays Jack the 
Lamplighter.





I approached this movie with a critical eye.  Will the story of Mary Poppins returning to the Banks' home twenty-five years later be engaging and fun?  Will the magic overwhelm the story?  

Close inspection fell away as the story of the struggling Banks family in 1935 unfolded and Mary Poppins steps in to help them in their time of need.

Magic, music. and some mayhem concluded with...  Oh, go watch the movie.  It's so much fun!
