		I bought this CD for my daughter, who at 9 has become probably the third generation to be entranced by the excellent music written for the film adaptation of Mary Poppins, which considering it was released in 1964 has shown astonishing longevity.
		But in the case of Mary Poppins, a "spoonful of sugar" was just the tonic for a slightly dated and often scary series of books by P L Travers.
		Fantastic weekend theatre breaks including one of the top London shows, "Mary Poppins", and accommodation at a four-star hotel for as little as £64.

	How Do You Solve a 'Problem' Like Maria von Poppins?
		In such surroundings, both Mary Poppins and, later, Julie Andrews's incarnation of her in the Walt Disney film version, proved to be beacons of light at the end of a fairly dark experiential tunnel.
		Julie Andrews's personification of Mary Poppins and Maria von Trapp gave the child in me panoramic insight into the self-liberating possibilities of orchestrated joy, choreographed confidence and sung spirit.
		Much of what is so memorable about Mary Poppins and The Sound of Music is how each score (by the Sherman Brothers and Rodgers and Hammerstein, respectively) bears the imprint of the Andrews voice, which, by 1963 and 1964 (when the films were shot) was in full, prime bloom.

	Biography for Julie Andrews (I)
		She didn't, and so she made an auspicious film debut in Disney's Mary Poppins (1964), a huge hit which got her the Academy Award for Best Actress.
		But after Poppins and Maria, her image as a goody two-shoes was cemented, despite creditable work in The Americanization of Emily (1964) and Hawaii (1966).
		For millions around the world, she'll always be Mary Poppins, or Maria, the governess to the Von Trapp family.

	1964 Oscar Winners
		General consensus was that Andrews should have been cast as Eliza Doolittle (as she was on the stage) in the film version of My Fair Lady, which won best picture the same year in competition with Mary Poppins (AAN); but producer Jack L. Warner chose to go with the more established name of Audrey Hepburn.
		Andrews was best known for her stage performances in The Boy Friend (1954), My Fair Lady (1956), and Camelot (1960), before she made her film debut as the magical nanny Mary Poppins.
		When producer Jack L. Warner began assembling the cast for the film version, he first imagined Cary Grant or Rock Hudson in the role of Henry Higgins, but he was soon persuaded to retain Harrison, whose performance was so brilliant that his name became almost synonymous with the role.
